I went to see Mates Of State again last night. They made a quick stop at the Larimer Lounge on there way to Houston to record. It was another incredible show. This show had the same great interaction with each other and the crowd as previous show I�ve seen. The set was kinda short and [...]

Don’t worry. You’re much cooler than I am. I’m sure your three-day weekend was way more eventful and fun than mine was.

Chair-Hockey
Last night I attended a really fun charity event downtown. A group of about ten of us in my office formed a chair-hockey team and entered as a sponsor/team in the tournament. The benefit was for The Bridge Project. The tournament was located on the vacant, 27th floor, of a high-rise downtown. Two “rinks” were [...]

Sweet Goodness
I’m still feeling sick. Now I’m starting to get congested but the fever has passed. The mornings are tuff, but after I’ve been up for a while I start to feel better. Somebody in our office has recently acquired an account with Otis Spunkmeyer. With the account Otis provided us with an industrial sized cookie [...]

Fever Fueled
I started to feel a little ill on Sunday night. By the time I woke up yesterday I was feeling like a bucket of shit. I came in to work and finished a few things that had to get done. Then in a fever fueled delirium, I started sending out e-mails to people I haven’t [...]

Baseball Days
I had a nice weekend. On friday I went to an old haunt, The Bank. I’m surprised the bar tender their remembered me, as it had been almost a year since I had been there. Had a few beers then came home. I slept in on Saturday. At around noon I met my dad and [...]

Evening Showers
The night before last I went over to my brothers to bbq. We had brauts&kraut, corn-on-the-cob, baked potatoes, and sunshine wheat. We sat on his back porch, listened to tunes, smoked cigarettes and told each other our Vegas stories. The weather was perfect. It was a beautiful evening. I didn’t want it to end. I [...]

And The Winner Is….
After a very prolonged and heart-pounding week, the suspense is finally over. The much awaited results for the very ballyhooed cholesterol contest have finally arrived. Before we get to the results, I would like to make a few thank-yous. First to my doctor, without whom the blood-work would never have been processed. I would also [...]

An Ugly Match
We won again at ultimate last night but it was an ugly match. The opposing team had a three point lead in the beginning, but after we moved ahead, the game got really physical and there were lots of fouls called. One guy actually punched me in the back as he ran by me after [...]

Viva Las Vegas
I took the day off of work on Friday. I woke up early did a load of laundry, washed the dishes (I have to do them by hand), and picked up my apartment. Five hours later I was already up $100 on the blackjack tables. About twelve of us headed out to Las Vegas, Nevada [...]

Those Clouds
It might be true, that they are really out there. Those clouds. Pearly luminescent love. Wisps and shiny cotton wads of earth’s most natural of resources. Lightly skimming and somtimes envoloping. They float around the world wraping around unsuspecting you’s and me’s. Most of us know they are out there only because we’ve been wraped [...]

Cholesterol Contest
I used to think my old doctor was the greatest. Well she still is, as far as I know. However, she won’t be my doctor anymore. But that is only cause she quit internal medicine and is now working with the elderly. So after she quit, I was reassigned a new doctor. And this is [...]
