I love the Story of the Day. It’s one of the few newsletters that I take the time to open and read on a daily basis. Today’s was: Things I wanted to do when I was ten Make a wagon into a restaurant & travel around the world having adventures with my invisible pet dinosaur. […]
While I hope not to, I have a feeling I’ll be learning a hard lesson later today about the disposability of material things. For the last hour, I’ve been contemplating “worse case scenarios” and doing a mental inventory of my apartment. So far, I think I’d be okay if “starting over” was necessary. Well, except […]

I like to think that I always get everything I want. Most of the time, I do. But, in reality, the two things I’ve wanted most in the world, I’ve lost. I keep searching for reasons why – moving to Vegas, meeting x, becoming y, winning z. But, each justification never lasts nor seems to […]
Good to know my caffeine addiction is still in the safe zone. I think I’ll start up’ing my intake of coffee. Why be in the “moderate” zone when I could be having “delusions of Godhood”? The site even lets you send cute awards like the one below to other bloggers:
Actually, I think writing about how much BDA’s SUCK will make me feel better. Just a few of the complete and total lies I heard this week AND caught them in: Lie: Files were delivered to printer on time, at 3:00 PM. Reality: HELLO dumbass. You forwarded me the email saying they were delivered at […]
