It's a good feeling to look back on a year and accept the fact that really, it was a hell of a good one ( Read more... )

I don't think I bothered mentioning that I went to the big biannual World War One event two weekends ago. It definitely wasn't the greatest event I'd ever been to, but it was far from being bad. I'll take what I can get ( Read more... )

So, I just received the news that I might be looking into mortgages much sooner than I'd anticipated. My landlord just called me up and told me that I can't fully renew the lease on my apartment because he wants to renovate like crazy.

I'm not sure how to write the proof statement for this, but trust me, it's a given, and my roommate backs me up on this ( Read more... )

We just had a fire behind our work! Of course, me being strategically placed wayyy far away in the back of the scene shop, I was the last to know. Thanks a ton, co-workers. It's nice to know that if my actual building were burning down, you'd make that extra effort to make sure I didn't become a crispy charcoal Robbie-corpse ( Read more... )
