So from Thursday to today (Saturday, i know it's past midnight) I adjudicated with the Worldstrides Heritage Festival in Nashville, and the following fortunate events happened ( Read more... )

i've said this many times and it won't be the last time: the greatest part of the personal and professional relationship that i have with mark is how we complement each other. he has strengths that are my weaknesses, he has weaknesses that are my strengths, and everything in between. and the bottom line has always been one of profound mutual ( Read more... )

Since this past weekend, my life has been predominantly about three things: music writing for Tulane, LEAP Motion/Max Programming at home, and poker. I think my summer - even when i'm traveling - will be a lot about those three things.

The past couple of weeks have been generally semi-low key in a lot of ways - things were busy, but i was ( Read more... )

i've been doing that neglecting-of-the-friends-page thing again. to be fair, i've fallen off of the map of social media reading in general, facebook and g+ have been fairly neglected too.

I skimmed the friends page a bunch today, but i have a friend visiting from out of town, so i need to stop and actually Do Things.

But in general things ( Read more... )

december was kind of a huge blur for me between all of the stuff leading into the New Orleans Bowl on the 21st and then flying home on the 22nd. I was home for a full two weeks (plus an unplanned extra day due to weather), and i thought that that extra time would make it so that i could see more people yet have a fairly relaxed pace.

i feel like i've been fairly absent on social media in the past couple of weeks. half of the reason is that i just have a ton of crap going on both workwise and personal projectwise, and the other half is that since purchasing humble bundle 9 i've been spending a lot of time playing FTL.

the FTL obsession is wearing off some, though, so i'll ( Read more... )

i've become friends with a handful of new people on LJ who know me only through LJ and not through fb or g+, so i thought i'd make a general PSA that if those people are interested in the other blog that i regularly post in but don't want to have to navigate to a separate page to do it, you can add the RSS feed to that blog to your LJ friends page ( Read more... )

i've asked a couple of friends their opinions about this, i thought i might as well put it out for greater public consumption.

in may i moved to a new apartment. I've talked about it before, but as a recap: apartment is connected to a house where the landlord and landlady live, Danny and Caylie, a couple in their mid-20s or so. They are huge ( Read more... )

when you have band camp rehearsals 12 hours a day for 13 days straight, social media tends to fall to the backside.

But because i had the time to do it, i spent the past half hour catching up on everything LJ, and i have to say, it's really odd reading things chronologically backwards. I read "i got the job" before i read "i think my interview ( Read more... )

my friends feed lately has been interesting because there are several people who had previously abandoned this place that have started to come back here to write entries again, and i've recently picked up a few new people who now grace my streams with their awesomeness.

when things were crazy a few months ago, i neglected my friends feed a lot i ( Read more... )
