I hate it when I can't get to sleep when I want to. It's not that I have better things to do, it is more the fact that I am not tired. After I lay in bed for 30 minutes or so, I realize what's happening. Then I get up and try to find something else to do, though mostly I end up being bored...which sucks as well. If you guessed that I can't ( Read more... )

I've been ignoring this thing again...but anyway, the last post at least deserves an explanation. My dad's job moved to Virginia in January of this year, six months before Hilary's graduation. My parents did not want to move my sister in the middle of her senior year, so my mom and sister remained in NY while my dad was in Virginia. Now, the ( Read more... )

I said "goodbye" to the house I grew up in today...

Being an optics dork with a heart, I feel that I had to mention this here.

Spider-Man 3 was fun to see at midnight, but that doesn't stop me from saying that it was cheesy. The best part of the movie by far was Venom. It looked soooo much like all the art.

Yes, I'm going to see Spiderman 3 at midnight tonight. I'm looking forward to it, I'm expecting it will be fun. I am also wishing that I had some way of watching playoff hockey. Maybe I will end up at a sports bar when the Stanley Cup Finals start ( Read more... )

I think it has just been this week, but one of the best parts of my life right now are the free episodes of 30Rock on the NBC website. I just want to get through this week, just have to make it to Saturday.

Go see Hot Fuzz now!

What are you waiting for, go NOW!!!!

Yeah, I'm looking forward to summer. Even though I'm going to be in Ithaca most of that time, it will be fun. I'm looking forward to a lot of things. I'll start with the travel. I will be leaving for CLEO in about a week, but that only half counts as travel, since it's work related. It will be nice to see the Inner Harbor again. The next bit ( Read more... )

Today is Easter, and that pretty much means nothing to me, just a Sunday where there's even LESS to do. I'm not knocking the idea of Easter or people who celebrate it, it just was never a big deal for me growing up. The weather in upstate NY is doing what it normally does in "spring ( Read more... )
