I have been laying in bed for three hours and I cannot fall asleep. My mind is racing with all the shit I have to get done at work. It continued to be completely relentless today, as if they are trying to squeeze every last drop out of me they can in sheer desperation. I feel more annoyance than anything else, knowing whatever I don't finish simply ( Read more... )

It was so nice outside on lunch I am not even sure I can put it into words. It was the perfect balance of warmth and cool lake breeze. I could even smell the lake, and not the foul, rancid, rotting fish odor one comes to expect from Lake Michigan. It smelled almost as if, in some fantasy, it could be crystal blue and fresh as when the earth was new ( Read more... )

I just had the craziest thought. While in the bathroom no less, where they all seem to come to me, profound or otherwise ( Read more... )

It’s only one-o-clock but I feel like the day is almost over already. I set my alarm (on my phone) for 6:30 but ended up being lazy and hitting the snooze for over an hour. I had it in my head to get out to the lakefront before 8:00 but that didn’t happen. When I had first woken up it was still a bit gray with the impending doom of a spring shower ( Read more... )

Last night I watched ’Chasing Liberty’ (again) with a group of my friends. It seemed to be enjoyed by all, and I have to admit like some doe-eyed teenager I was once again left giddy and giggly after the experience. I only have to see certain scenes with Matthew Goode and certain camera/lighting angels to feel all a flush with this almost alien ( Read more... )

Well, at least it’s been too busy for me to really spend time resenting my return to work. Of course, spending 45 minutes on a printer issue that the stupid moron caused himself trying to print an email in landscape format for no reason was a great way to start my day. Meanwhile, Dearest is too busy working on someone’s personal machine to waddle ( Read more... )

What a magnificent day outside. It looked dreary and cold when I first woke up this morning, but the clouds broke open and the sun provided just the right balance between the cold and warmth ( Read more... )

Yesterday was just another one of those days where I could not get home to save my life. Traffic on the Stevenson was a nightmare; and of course, it was the day Jennifer asks me to drive. Then, the El was traveling at about an inch an hour because there was some kind of fire on the tracks between Sedgwick and Armitage and all the rush hour trains, ( Read more... )

So, it seems I am not the only one dealing with a mild case of obsession over this Goode fellow. Some girl has a fan site erected to the man complete with photos she ripped from every trailer and movie he’s done ( Read more... )

Serenity now! Serenity NOW ( Read more... )
