I only have two clocks in my apartment. One on the range, and one on the microwave that hangs over the range. My cell and computer have clocks of course, but they aren't always out there for me to see.

With so few clocks in my apartment, it perplexes me that I manage to look at the clock at least three times a week when...

Weirdly enough I had the exact same thing happen to me last summer, except my time was 15.14..it was really odd, although I think it was probably something to do with my routine at the time.

Liquor makes me fat. Painkillers don't.

Is it a good thing that the apartment is orderly, quiet and empty? I would think you'd like that.

Last night I pulled my little black Evo into my parking spot. I tucked my bokken under the strap of my backpack and pulled my Mizuno running jersey straight. Up in the apartment, I settled in to eat the yakisoba takeout I'd picked up and watch the latest Smallville. I know I've made mention of my amusement at my apparent Japan-mania before, but last...

A long weekend of doing nothing left me so exhausted that I had to take a nap at 8:15 this evening. Why am I back up already? Apparently my spirit cannot rest while I would have a DVD overdue. God damned Nicole Kidman movies.

Yeah, that's what happens when you get hired on to someone else's codebase. Ugh. At least it's not that hard to learn.

I tried twice today to decline a job offer, and the guy offering the job won't take the hint. I'm baffled by this.

Actually, this is like the time I sent a company the rejection of rejection letter.

"Thank you for your rejection letter of 5/28. Unfortunately, I will not be able to accept your refusal to offer employment and will be joining your firm...

It turns out that I will not be joining Seattle's newest technology incubator as CTO, and I think I'll be happier for it. It's kind of a neat feeling to turn jobs down. Feels sort of special.

In the words of Freud, "OMG."

Today on null, the stupidest dilemma of all time. A safe job or an uncertain one. Same salary, both's equity virtually worthless, one where I can do what I want but am on the hook for it, one where I'm always fighting against tradition but I'm not ultimately responsible.

I've rediscovered my love of L.L. Cool J, though.

I'd take the safe job, but then, I like security. I don't know if the same is true for you.

Today the world is just trying to see if it can make me freak out. So far, I haven't. I'm amazed.

This morning, I got my first rejection letter back from an agent, which always makes me feel like I'll never be a novelist. At work, my code displayed bug that was impossibly hard to predict just as our second largest customer is going into...

Yeah I have been saying I am 25 for about 6 months, I have inherited that from my Dad. It's true, peaks and dips. I am looking forward to a peak any time......NOW!

charley:
Hahaha exactly, yes!!

I am not particularly worried about the actual age just all the things I feel like I should have done/be doing by now. It's an issue.

Saw A History of Violence and loved it. However, my overriding impression is that Maria Bello is criminally hot.
