The First Friends-Only Post. With good reason… It’s been something of a shitty week so far. Though I will touch on the highlights, all I can I think about right now is just the complete lack of patience I feel right now. Lately, my temper has been flaring up, and I feel somewhat apathetic toward …

Life is what happens while you’re making other plans
I have finally found a log entry where using that phrase is pretty appropriate to use. Because life is definitely happened whilst making other plans. Let’s begin by examining the week that has transpired between my last entry and this one. Monday morning, immediately after work, I went home, grabbed anime DVDs, my DVD player, …

The First Logbook Entry for June
Alexis, the eldest of my Aunt Yvette’s children graduated from high school this morning. It was rather unfortunate that IW asn’t able to attend the ceremony or the reception/party they held at her friend’s house. I did leave her message on her cell phone, though.

Boy, am I glad I wore the Big Belt tonight!
I finally got myself out of the house again this week, after being something of a homebody yesterday and just hanging out in the heat. Unlike the last couple of weeks, the weather around here has risen significantly to turn my bedroom into a sauna. I leave the window open and the fan on, but …

Taking Care of the Elderly
Another week gone, and yet another week to sleep through. As I get closer and closer to my birthday, I keep wondering what the hell I’m going to do for it. Should I go ahead and throw the huge bash, or just keep it simple and do some sort of dinner thing with some people. …

On Untitled #16, Gemini Birthdays, and Withdrawals
Where No One seems to be suffering some sort of long-term net problem, and unfortunately (or fortunately), I’m not really aware of the nature of the problem. It kind of sucks, not living in the same place as all the servers, but by the same token, it’s kind of nice because I’m also not suffering …

The Feeling of a Split Series
In baseball, when visiting teams come to town, they typically play a 2-4 game series with the home team at the home stadium. I think, back in ’89, I recall a 5-game series. Anyway, typically, what ends up happening is one of three outcomes: A sweep, which is either team winning all of the game …

The Return of DiGi Karen!
So last year, I got to know this really awesome young lady, who’s first name is Karen. We hung out a great deal at Fanime. She was the Vice-Chair, and I was some guy who handled press and public relations and crap like that. But in the time after, we’ve been really good friends, and …
