Best line ever :P

I was reading an article Love makes "Brokeback" Oscar favorite and it had to have one of the most hilarious lines I'v ever read in a movie review. "All of the awards haven't hurt either. "Brokeback's" got so much buzz it'svibrating, and women have never shied away from things that vibrate."Feel free to read the whole article as well. Its a very good...

Brokeback Mountain

I saw Brokeback Mountain the other night with some friends and it was incredible. I know one of the main complaints of the movie was its slow pace but that was a large part of what the movie was about. The sadness that aside from monthly fishing trips the relationship between the two men was really going nowhere. I think the movie was well done...

Almost better

So I stayed home again today. The extra rest I think is working because I don't feel as bad as I have the rest of the week, plus I make sure I don't get anyone else sick. By Monday I should be good as new and back in the offi...

Good News/Bad News

Well I got a call from the realtor for the condo today who said that closings have been pushed back to on or before 3/31/06. This is bad news because I want this to be done and I want to get into my unit. This is good news because I have no viable roomates for the period of time from whenever I close until about 6/1. Almost everyone I could possibly...

Still Sick

Well I went to work yesterday because I was feeling better. Apparently that cost me because today I feel almost as bad as Monday. I guess I need to make sure I truly rest and get better. Thankfully I can do SOME work from home so I can be at least partially productive.The good news is that I got an e-mail from the lawyers for Wells Fargo (my mortgage...

Sick :(

Well it had to happen sooner or later. I'm sick. My voice is cracking a bit and it sounds like I'm a hair's breadth away from having laryngitis. My throat feels like its packed in gauze and I'm achey. Like clockwork its almost February. My body tends to fight the good fight most of the year but almost annually I get sick towards the beginning...

Conclave Concluded

Well, today was better. Exhausting, but better. There was no feeling of closetness or anything, just a feeling of being part of a larger entity within the brotherhood of Alpha Chi Rho. I had a constructive day today starting with waking up at 7am after about 6 hours of sleep. I began the day with a meeting of the Educational Foundation and then...

For those just reading this now, I am doing fine. :) It was quite cathartic to vent via the blog, its one of the benefits of doing this. I had a really good day today and was in one of the better moods I've been in for a while so it all balances.As for this evening...

What is going on lately?

I have no idea what's goign on lately. It seems my temper has been on a hair trigger lately and tonight on the way home I randomly felt like I was going to cry, in between feeling pissed off. The odd thing is that there's nothing really that should be causing this to happen. I don't know if this is cumulative stress or the moon or what. I think...

A few more updates

Well today has been a big day for updates. I've changed a few settings on my page. For one thing I increased the width of the content area, and I've also turned on "back links". "Back links" are used when someone links to your post and they in turn link their post back to your post that they linked to.Also I have a question, who reads this? I have...

Well, yesterday I got my black iPod Nano (4GB) and all associated gadgets to it.First impressions:- the iPod is incredible sleek and cool looking.- it is very light- it is VERY easy to scratch - I had to immediately go to http://www.theinvisibleshield.com/ and buy the invisible shield wrapper for the nano. The demos looked really good and the reviews...
