I finally got my insurance card yesterday. It came with a letter talking about a 12 month waiting period for pre-exisiting conditions, but the letter had way too many words for me to read the whole thing. I’ll have to delve into that a little deeper once I decide I need to go to the [...]

I’m pretty out of it when I walk from my back door up maybe one block and to my bus stop. I hate mornings and don’t function well. When I see things I want to remember, I tend to take a picture, upload it to Flickr, and then I’m instantly reminded when I look at [...]

I’ve never been a hardcore believer in horoscopes. Of course they’re extremely entertaining and there were some days at my previous job when I’d find one that said something like “your boss will be hit in the nuts repeatedly tonight when he stops to get gas on the way home from work”, I’d vow it [...]

For quite some time, I’ve been having some issues with my external hard drive. I’ve written about them before. I was getting pretty desperate, mainly because that hard drive held every digital picture I’d ever taken since 1998. Every last one. And while those pictures of me drinking beer from a plastic Bud Light picture [...]

Things I saw after I turned my computer off at work and headed down the elevator until just right now:

A co-worker leaning into the back window of his VW Passat while cleaning safety glass out. Someone was ballsy enough to punch in the window in the middle of the afternoon while it was parked in [...]

The General™ and I just returned home from a lovely Saturday night date that included a trip to the dog park, followed by a romantical (in the words of Flavor Flav) dinner at Denny’s on Lake Street in Minneapolis. We know how to live it up with the rest of them.
After we left, we were [...]

I promise I always think about posting, but obviously that’s about as far as it gets.
My external hard drive is having some issues. My computer will intermittently recognize that it’s plugged in to my USB slot, but even when it knows it’s there, I can’t access it. Normally, I wouldn’t care, except guess what’s on [...]

After running a temp of somewhere around 101 degrees three days last week, I was really hoping that by the weekend, I’d feel better and up to doing something besides laying around in bed trying to figure out who to leave my John Kerry bobblehead to when I died of whatever mysterious disease had taken [...]

Thanks to the influence my little brother has on me, I go into these phases of thinking I need four or five watches at a time. They all have to be silver and they all have to have large faces. If I’m wearin’ a watch, I want people to know I’m wearing a watch. My [...]

Friday: Work, fresh flowers on the table, homemade lasagna for dinner, couch time, watching Superbad, going to bed way before midnight.
Saturday: Up at 6. Breakfast at Pannekoeken Hus, which I hadn’t visited in far too long. Composed a song about my breakfast which contained lyrics like “meat in my skillet makes me so happy”. Headed [...]
