Merry Christmas to all!!! ... Except for Dickie... Happy Festivus!!!!

So for the last year now, I have been pining for Grad school. Things haven't gone my way with the application process, but this is a new year with new hopes. I am applying for next fall and hopefully will get accepted to one of the schools I am applying to ( Read more... )

Its been a long long time since I posted last, and I think it would be appropriate to start reposting by giving out an FAA. This one is for Dickie. He has been extremely helpful in providing me and a lot of others with cell phone services, etc. It is a shame that the cell phone companies don't realize what they could be gaining by having him on ( Read more... )

I am officially in my late 20's now. What am I supposed to do now? We need Reaganomics back so I can be a yuppie player and jet set across the world, make lots of money, party, and hook up.

I don't understand why everyone wants to leave the US now that Bush is re-elected. We live in the greatest country in the world, no matter what idiotic leader we have in office.

I would like to give my first FAA in a long time to Markus. He has been kind enough to proofread my essays for grad schools and help me distinguish myself from the applying masses.

I'm still waiting for Texas to actually have a cool evening in the summer. The heat is going to kill me, especially when I work outside in 100% humidity and 105 deg temps. Only 1 more week in the 14 day hitch until I go to Chicago. I can make it ( Read more... )

Went to Houston to get away from Tyler for a while. I went to go see my friend Nacomi, who is dating my Junior Engineer. She had tickets to the Improv in Houston. We went and saw Mark Curry with her friends. It was totally hilarious. He did most of his stand-up impovisational by taking cues from the audience. He'd ask what we wanted to talk ( Read more... )
