So as I mentioned in my last entry like, nine days ago, my Geo Metro was having issues again. Thankfully, it seemed like a problem (The starter motor dying) I'd encountered before and it was something I could fix quickly. Also thankfully, the place I got the starter from last year had my receipt in their computers, so I was able to trade out the ( Read more... )

I've realized that my last entry was rather emo and have tagged it as such. At night, I do most of my thinking as it's become the time during my day when I'm most alone to toil away at the computer. I also tend to veer to the irrational and self-defeating. At night, I may wish that I'd just wake up a different person, but in reality when I wake up ( Read more... )

It was a good weekend. Got out Saturday night and saw a late late showing of Narnia 2 of 7: Prince Caspian with Jaci. I have to say, it wasn't bad. Everything you've heard from the reviewers is true- It's a dark, brutal fantasy epic with large, adult themes (Including a plot involving ethnic cleansing). Lotsa people die too. It's really not the ( Read more... )

Wow, my New Year's entry was fairly depressing, wasn't it? Yow. One last emo-hurrah before the year finished up, ehh? Well, what I didn't really talk about back then was what was going on around here and I've kind of gone almost two weeks since New Years, so I probably have a lot to talk about. Let's hit some big topics first ( Read more... )

Well... Here we are again, another new year. 2008. Yesh, that sounds wild. Two-thousand-eight. Eight. Just let that sink in for a bit. I know I said last year that 2006 was the most wasteful year of my life, but I think 2007 may take the cake. Just like 2006, I coasted through 2007 on savings from my 2005 job at Columbia Cardiology. Only very ( Read more... )

Wow things just wont calm down around here! In the morning my grandmother finally leaves Oregon on her way back to Alabama. It's been a long and odd two weeks of changing our behavior to accommodate her. As I've written in previous posts, she's been a handful. sassylilscorpio suggested to me that maybe she's just a very lonely person, but the way she talks about ( Read more... )

Well, I finally got my response from Kalina. After 48 hours sitting on pins and needles waiting for any word about a second date, a message arrived just a little while ago. It was short. One paragraph. She thanked me for meeting her, thanked me for giving her a chance, and wished me well. However, she said she didn't feel the "common interest" she ( Read more... )

I was having a good day: Got stuff done, helped clean the garage a bit, helped out with the groceries, had a few nice conversations online with my friends and even found some fresh wiper blades for my car that I had hidden away in storage. I even got out to our local Blockbuster and rented a couple interesting movies! One of which was a documentary ( Read more... )

I guess it's time I run far, far away
Find comfort in pain
All pleasure's the same
It just keeps me from troubleI was hoping that by the time I had to write this entry it would be a happy one. Maybe it is, I don't know. So it's been two weeks since I've heard anything on my potential employment with KTVZ, a regional NBC affiliate in Bend, Oregon. ( Read more... )
