life has been pretty snazzy as of late. i've managed to snag a few free nights away from work to go out drinking with my favorite local girls (andrea & emboz), which is a good time, every time. work has been kind to me in terms of self esteem (they love me there. i'm totally serious.) and money. and i went on the first "date" i've really been ( Read more... )

so i totally graduated a month and some change ago. and i still have another list left after this one. this is unacceptable. someone needs to harp on me about this or something... thankfully, i have a lame, lame excuse: i am married to my job again ( Read more... )

so i got my wisdom teeth out this morning....THAT was an adventure. sort of. only not ( Read more... )

i meant to do this earlier. and then i got all caught up in going out and seeing people and not having finals and then GRADUATING (my good god, i'm graduated. it still doesn't feel like it.) and being sick and moving home and settling in and blahblahblah...anyway. here we go. what will be important to note about these lists is that they are not ( Read more... )
