One More Time

Posted on June 2, 2008. Filed under: Morning Freewrite, Random, friends | Tags: , , , , , , |

Okay, I’ll try this again… I’ve been slacking on my freewriting lately and apparently I haven’t posted in almost a week. Ooops!
What have I been up to, you ask?  Well, I took a few days off of work.  I’d call them “mental health days” but that’s lame.  Basically I had a migraine that probably could have [...]

It’s been a while…

Posted on May 20, 2008. Filed under: Lost, Morning Freewrite, Random, boredom, drink, friends, movies, pop culture, work | Tags: , , , , , , , |

I haven’t done one of these freewrites for a while.  As usual, I have lots of stuff going through my head.
My dog has to have surgery.
I hope I’m making the right choice.
I  don’t have any money.
How did I manage to piss away my entire stimulus check without knowing it?  I
‘m trying to do some [...]

Toxicity

In this post from I Hate Your Job, Chuck writes:
It only takes a few sips of strychnine to ruin a good thing.
Have you ever had a co-worker or boss bring you down with their own dissatisfaction?
To which I answer a resounding *YES*!!  It’s something I’ve been thinking about a lot lately.  Maybe because I’ve been [...]

You’ve Got 20 Minutes

I stayed in last night.  Finished packing, went to bed early.  Then my cousin called and wanted me to come out. I don’t get to hang out with him much, but I was being good…  then he kept calling.  So I went out.  At midnight.  The night before I had to leave.  Ugh.
Pretty fun time. [...]

Saturday freewrite

Unfortunately, I’ve been up for over an hour already, but still haven’t managed to get anything done.  And I have TONS of shit to do. 
Last night was fun.  Work peeps.  Regular peeps.  Friends.  Friends of friends.  I didn’t do as good of a job “connecting” as I’d hoped, but-hey- I had a good time. 
Except next [...]

So Fucking What?

Posted on April 26, 2008. Filed under: Random, boredom, drink, friends, inertia, insight, movies, pop culture, work | Tags: , , , , , , |

In addition to being a *super cool* Gen X movie starring Steven Dorff, “So fucking what” sums up how I’ve been feeling lately.
See, I’ve been going through this “phase” of self-reflection. Whether or not it is tied to my need to start a blog remains to be seen. But, here’s the thing: I [...]

You’re Always 17 in Your Hometown

Posted on April 20, 2008. Filed under: Random, drink, friends, insight, music | Tags: , , , , , |

I hung out with my high school friends last night.  To be honest, they’re the same girls I *always* hang out with.  We’ve been friends nearly all our lives.  I love these girls.  We have TONS of inside jokes, nicknames and stories to share when we get together.  It’s usually a really good time.
But last [...]

Politics and Baseball

Posted on April 15, 2008. Filed under: Random, current events, insight, politics, pop culture | Tags: , , , , , , , , |

Politics is not baseball.
This is why discussing politics with friends/family/coworkers really annoys me.
Not because I am ill-informed or don’t like to hear viewpoints other than my own. No, my real beef with discussing politics is the either/or, us/them mentality people on BOTH sides of the fence have towards politics.
People basically choose their parties like they [...]

The Next Day

I realized after writing my post on Eating and Drinking in the Big Easy that I never bothered to give an update on my last day in New Orleans…  I’ve shared this story with a number of friends and they’ve all decided to get a good laugh at my expense.  Without further adeiu..
Needless to say, [...]
