Please, excuse my whining. Put up with it and there IS a point here to be found, I promise. Skip to the last paragraph if you want to get straight to the crux of things ( Read more... )

For about the past four months my dad and I have been trying to work things out so that Tiffany could buy my old car, giving her a good, reliable set of wheels at a fair price. Unfortunately, her mother (who was going to pay for it) fell through and though T was saving up to buy it herself it was going to take a long time or a long time making ( Read more... )

Well, today I went out with my friend Jess and her family to celebrate her grandmother's 89th birthday. We went out to the Cedar Hill State Park, on the opposite side of Joe Pool Lake from the one that my dad and I usually go to when we take the boat out for a spin. It was a lovely day, if a bit cooler than usual for late March, and Jess grilled up ( Read more... )

My friends, I've got a question for you: What's your text tolerance ( Read more... )

Yes, delightfully fuzzy. That's how I'm feeling right now, in more ways than one. I feel generally warm and relaxed, and maybe just a little tingly. I'm completely sober, just muzzy. I've also decided to try growing my goatee and mustache back. It's been a bit more than three years since I last tried having facial hair, and now that my beard has ( Read more... )

Things have been going quite pleasantly of late, though I'm mildly shocked that March is already here. I probably shouldn't be since I've been keeping up with my calendar, but March seems like one of those months that just sneaks up on me, both as a seasonal milestone and because it typically marks the half-way point of the spring term in most ( Read more... )

Like I said at the end of my LJ post earlier today, between the dates of February 20 and February 22 I attended the first Texas Furry Fiesta in Addison, Texas. I've been looking forward to this since I registered for the convention in August, and the convention did not disappoint. If anything, it blew the old Texas FurCon out of the water. Furs ( Read more... )

Geez, it seems like I can't even make two or three posts on here without going dormant for another month or two. I'm not sure if I'm lazy or just distracted, but I really should work on that. Anyway, there's a lot of ground to cover, so you're going to be getting more of a brief overview of some of the events that I hadn't reported yet instead of ( Read more... )

Well, here I sit with a decidedly off-kilter grin on my face and some delightfully delirious pipe organ playing in the background. Why, you may ask, do I feel a few steps away from being a cackling fiend? Because, because, becaaaause... I just spent the last 24 hours or so wrapping up and turning in my thesis update for the semester and a twenty- ( Read more... )

It's been about two months, but here I am again! I apologize to you, my friends, for any major events that I failed to comment on, but I haven't even been making the effort to keep up with my Friends list. A combination of school, internship, and a dash of burn-out has been making life a little difficult for me, since it is (of course) the end of ( Read more... )
