Yeah, I've mostly given up on LiveJournal. Here's some updates, though? This should satisfy some of you:)

2009 and "the aughts" ended. Time flies like a banana, tu sais.

( First a travel summary, then other stuff! )

Whoops, two months without an entry.

In March, I:
-participated in Grad Recruiting Weekend
-wore a necktie every day for a week or so
-drove to & from the airport a lot
-saw Watchmen
-saw Benjamin Button
-went to Ithaca, then Corning ( Read more... )

Just a meme. Maybe I've done this before, but I'm too lazy to go through all my old meme posts. You'll live.

The Challenge

• Post 3 things you've done in your lifetime that you don't think anybody else on your friends list has done.


• See if anybody else responds with "I've done that." If they have, you need to add another!(2.b., 2.c., etc...)


• Have ( Read more... )

It's been a while since I posted here. Lots has gone on. I'll cover the basics, I suppose. After Christmas, I came back up to Rochester for about 24 hours and had coffee with julescm. That night I saw Juno, and the next day drove to New York with Rachel & a bunch of her friends. The trip was a hoot, including Sarah's denial of snoring in the van and a ( Read more... )

A college chum has proposed charitable giving via EZPass. And one of the great mysteries of Baltimore has been "solved", which makes me a little sad. I liked the romantic way better. Speaking of mysteries, I watched a Discovery Channel show the other day about Roswell and still have no idea what to think. I am certainly intrigued by some of the " ( Read more... )

From mkb_technologie, 5 questions. You know the drill.
1.) I know you from everything2. Do you still feel a connection with that site? What is your opinion on the recent self-searching angst expressed by certain users in the daylogs?1. I don't feel as much of a deep personal connection before as I once did. But in a way, I never really was steeped in it the way ( Read more... )

Last night, I dreamt of Old Bay and of garbage plates, of dzou and of jennyblues. Huh.

One of these days I need to do a serious sock cleanout. I wonder where my flowchart is?

The bones:
All this started for kaitl, whom I don't even know! Ah, strangers on the Internet, exchanging information. It was based on a discussion over in comments at jisalynn's entry from a few days ago. But this was far too big to post over there, and I also want it publicly archived in my journal. It's highly reminiscent of my "things to take to college" ( Read more... )

Last weekend, I attended to the wedding of Brad Fuller & Jen Horwat. Meghan went with me, and adventures were had! The short version: We flew down to Baltimore Friday in time to grab dinner at the Wharf Rat with silberzauber, Leigh, Kris, and Steve. Then we headed to campus to see The Good Doctor, the first Barnstormers show I'd seen since Fall 2004's FOAs. ( Read more... )

And from my old neighborhood in Rochester, a pair of suspicious deaths. This house is a few feet behind my old building. I could see it from the parking lot. Though, to be fair, we're not sure this was a homicide. At least Rochester's murder rate is lower than Baltimore's. I must say I am NOT a fan of the ability of readers/users to comment on ( Read more... )
