Count Down Till Doomsday

You may have noticed (although it takes a keen eye) a countdown clock added to the “about me” section. Yeah, over there in the right hand column. Well, I have determined I have to get everything I am ever going to accomplish finished before that timer runs out. In true Owen Meany style I have [...]

Lucky Bamboo Plant

I went down to Colorado Springs this weekend to visit my Grandma. She turns 91 tomorrow. We brought her a lucky bamboo plant in celebration. She normally doesn’t like us to bring any gifts for her. She believes it’s a waste of money. She doesn’t want anymore material possessions. In her eyes it’s just another [...]

Of Montreal

I went to see Of Montreal (one of their better songs can be found here) last night. I had to coax myself out though. It was raining like crazy and I knew I wouldn’t be home till sometime after midnight (my head ended up hitting the pillow at 1:20. ugg) and I was just feeling [...]

The Big List

Here’s a list of things, by category, which I would like to try and get accomplished before I die. Henceforth known as The Big List. Of course this list can be adjusted, pruned, expanded and thrown away as I see fit. Life is about crossing old things off and starting new things. I also understand [...]

How To Be Good Quickly

What does it mean to be a good person? Do you have to be completely selfless? No way, that can be bad actually. Do you have to be completely selfish? An Objectivist would tell you so, but in my opinion, that’s even worse. I think it’s really hard to be good sometimes. I mean really [...]

Sounds Of The Chior

I was sleeping in this morning, as I often tend to do on the weekends. Because I really like my sleep. And becuase I was out late last night. I spent six hours in my apartment yesterday doing an extremely thurough spring cleaning job and listening to rain storms drift through the city. In the [...]

Rupturing Canine

This guy has been at it for a little while now. He’s come a long way since his first drawing. For some reason I really like his drwings. I can’t tell if it’s the creativity or the simplicity that I like most. Maybe it cause it seems Sam Brown draws just cause he likes to, [...]

The Sunday Sads

I’m not sure what causes it. Actually, I’m pretty sure it’s just loneliness, or a form of it because it seems to subside when others are around, or if things in my life are going particularly well. But I have a tendency toward the Sunday Sads. My old roommate used to call them The Blues, [...]

Too Tired To Eat Too Much.

My taxes are now officially submitted. This is the first time I’ve gotten a refund in the last two years because I lost my shirt trading stocks during 2002. On the trading front, 2003 isn’t looking any better (but at least that means another refund next year). So I need to find a more disciplined [...]
