Beaver Galore, Continued

( Personal )

The laptop I was using to write all this down has been busy. It has seen two other hard disks and operating systems since I pecked this in last week. I figured it was time to pop the WindowsXP hard disk back in and pull this off before I forgot…

I snagged a laptop […]

Beaver Galore

( Personal )

I usually do not remember my dreams. For two nights in a row now, I have. In fact, I consider it significant enough to try pecking them into this tiny keypad on this Treo 600 that was sitting unused at my office. I usually play Dope Wars (44 mil+ high score, baybee!) […]

My “Man-ness”

If my gender has ever come into question, reading this post will definitely prove that I am male.
I don’t know what the hell I ate in the last day or so that is causing this bout of prolific flatulence, but it is impressive. Despite the stress I am experiencing attempting to recreate the wheel […]

Forgetting Anniversaries

How do married men do this? I have been divorced from Michelle for over 8 years and I still know that today would have been our 13th wedding anniversary.
Guys, you have no excuses.
Michelle, if you see this, Happy Noniversary.

Small Windfall

( General and Personal )

Right before I left Minnesota, my mom forwarded me an official-looking letter. Apparently a check had been issued to me a couple years ago that had never been cashed. From whom? Hard to say with all the corporate name changes and companies working as agents on behalf of other companies. The […]

We Made It!

( General and Personal )

It was quite a journey, but all three of us made it to Seattle (Bellevue, actually) intact. Here are some updates:
Nancy (my aunt with whom I am living). She seems happy to have me around. Either she is a master thespian, or she is genuinely enjoying my company. I am choosing […]

This is Really Happening…

( General and Personal )

You know, I was fine all morning while doing some packing. I was fine picking up my car after having my struts replaced and rotors turned. I was even fine hanging out with the folks at the U-Haul place and joking around with them while my trailer hitch got installed. But once […]

Good Things?

( General and Personal )

I am glad you got the clock figured out *pretends to pat Ray on the head*, but disappointed you could not find anything blog-worthy to post about our zoo trip. I know, I know, you write when inspiration strikes.
My friend Breah brought up a good point while patronizing me: I rarely post “the good things” […]

The Zoo, Part Two

As always, life is strange.

I’m on a roll!

And I am getting more efficient!

Fight for Her?

Ah yes, an old draft never completed. Worth posting just for the historical value, I guess.

Yesterday…

( Personal )

…I found some direction for my future that I could have located from the comfort of my apartment. Staying here would have been far too easy, however, and the conviction I gained from my trip will not easily fade.
Long story short, I drove 1856 miles, used 54 gallons of gas, endured two carbque-related detours, […]

Kids Say the Darnedst Things…

…especially if you egg them on!

Lilacs!!!

I swear they are here to torment me…

Goondigh

Is this a Hindi word?

Pheromones?

The sense of smell is a powerful thing…

A Practical Dream

Why don’t I ever have dreams of schtupping supermodels? *sigh*

Another Nail Milestone

Tiiiiiiny nibbles…

Dreams are amazing things.
