Went to Cloyne for the second part of Josiah's Firefly marathon. As the wonders and laughs of Serenity appeared on the screen, Josiah and I kept whispering inside jokes. We didn't want to spoil it for the new fans. Despite having watched all of Firefly with Nicole Elyse less than two weeks ago, I enjoyed myself greatly. I think Firefly just doesn't ( Read more... )

I've been incommunicado for a while because I was lost in a Dreamland. Nicole Elyse came up to stay with me for Memorial Day Weekend. She was supposed to stay three and a half days. She stayed for ten ( Read more... )

I have finished! I have finished the final book in the Master and Commander series. The twentieth book ended in such a richly enjoyable manner, so quick and so happy. It absolutely lived up to the promise of it's title, Blue at the Mizzen. I must say the ending is so nice that even though it does not give me the future of the characters, I am not ( Read more... )

So this month's sponsored letter club was not what I had expected. None of the "maybe's" showed up and a couple of people cancelled at the last moment, so it was just me, Nenar, Taurendur, and run4rabbit. We didn't really have any main dishes. I made Rainbow Soup. Andrew and Nicole brought a fantastic variety of root beers and rasberry drinks. Becca brought Rasberry ( Read more... )

Had a nice long chat with my Dad yesterday. Really caught up on things. I'm going to get a bike through his bike shop at a ridiculous discount. Apparently some companies will sell a bike directly to a bike shop employee at 20% less than wholesale cost. So a $600 bike could be about $250. Pretty nice. He asked me a lot about Nicole, and was pretty ( Read more... )

I was going to go to a giants game again with Leslie tonight. She cancelled on me with possibly the most surprising excuse ever. She just found out yesterday that one of her close friends has brain cancer, was up all night crying, and thus is not in the mood for a baseball game. How horrible is that ( Read more... )

A few people have been asking me about it, so I thought it time to write a little something about the girl I've been dating. Her name is Nicole, and like my last girlfriend, I met her through BookWorlds. She's one of Nenar's new recruits from Harry Potter. She'll be teaching The Lost Years of Merlin in the fall. So, how'd it happen? Well, we'd met a few ( Read more... )

Yesterday I had a very pleasant look at my bank account. Thank you federal government for returning to me the $900 you took in excess last year. As a good citizen, it is my duty to return this money to the economy by purchasing stuff and paying sales tax on it. However, I don't really feel like buying stuff for myself at the moment (though I wouldn ( Read more... )

argh! It's so annoying that I can't check gmail from work. Fortunately, I can still use facebook and livejournal. I checked to see if the company has similar site blocked. They do; Myspace is blocked. I guess I'm just lucky that the two I use aren't blocked. Still annoying that I can't check private email on my lunch break ( Read more... )
