I don't know how many of you might remember, but I had to go home this time last year because my grandfather was in failing health.  Well, today is also my brother's 22nd birthday, and I want to be happy and celebrate it with him (in a way, what with being a few states removed) but I feel guilty about it because tonight a year ago is when my ( Read more... )

Okay, trying to post here more often, but usually don't have time in the morning, and am usually too tired to do more than just check my myspace before bed....what can I say?  I'm lazy. :)  But, on one good front, I've cut back on my laziness when it regards exercise...I've finally decided that, instead of saying "I'm gonna get up at 9 am every ( Read more... )

Found these online, and thought they said better than some of the more glittery ones what July 4th should really still be about- not fireworks and getting off of work, etc, etc but about the sacrifices men and women have been making so this country can survive for over 200 years now. We don't need to ever forget that!

Well, after quite a long time of seeming to be in a rut of work, gym and sleep, it was interesting to break things up a bit yesterday.  I actually did pretty good, considering that it's summertime and the sky threatened rain all day.  But, it got a little boring around 4, so I went on break and headed down to Bennigan's for a salad and a brew.  I ( Read more... )

I'm sitting here in Tennessee, in town for my cousin's wedding, but in the background is the CNN broadcast of the funeral going on right now in South Carolina. For those of you who may not know, there were nine firefighters killed in Charleston earlier this week in a store fire. They went in, having seen that it was contained to the rear of a ( Read more... )

I'm not sure how many may know much about the inner workings of my club, but Mons is picky. You have to be near the top of your game, physically, to work here. It took me five years to manage that. But, I've recently found that just because I'm here now doesn't mean I get to totally relax. As a good friend pointed out recently, I'm not gonna ( Read more... )

I swear, I am so fucking excited and nervous about this weekend.  We're all going down to Miami for the Exxxotica Convention and hopefully I'll make a decent impression.  So, to make up for me not working for a couple of days (since I recently picked up a half day shift working on Saturdays) I pulled a double yesterday and will be doing so again ( Read more... )

Been having a lot of fun at work lately, and had enough time to talk to Wayne Garcia at Creative Loafing about the art of the lap dance, and, well, here's where you can read it all: Click Here. In other news, Joe Redner's in the runoff for the District 1 City Council seat, so I have to give my two cents on the whole thing. (If you don't live in ( Read more... )

Okay, so, what have I been up to in the past week? Went to Poraoke (karaoke with porn playing in the background) on Wednesday with Sadia and Nicole.  I don't know who had more fun- me or Sadia! lol  Went to listen to Dave play on Thursday, then worked REALLY late on Friday (worked til 1 am or so)  Was gonna try to work on Saturday, just to see what ( Read more... )

Had a blast this past weekend.  Spent most of the first part of Saturday cleaning, and then went with some friends to go see Jeff Foxworthy.  We got there a little late, so he ribbed us a bit for that.  God, I haven't laughed that hard in a while!  Went out for sushi afterwards, then met up with my roommates at the movies.  They went to go see 300, ( Read more... )
