General Update

Funny how sometimes I just get into a posting mood. :)At any rate, I have two new temporary roomies: Dani and Anthony. Dani still doesn't have a set closing date so she'll be here for a little bit on my couches. Yay, slumber party. :PAlso, this week is production week for NYC. The schedule is like this:Tuesday - Tech/Dress RehearsalWednesday - Benefit...

The Secret Of The Sword

So, I'm a totaly and complete geek and child of the 80s. Today, along with 3 of my friends, I went to the Blackstone Valley Shoppes and saw "The Secret of the Sword" which was a movie that was made up of the first 5 episodes that introduced She-Ra.The most hilarious thing was when we walked in at 10 AM (apparently every month on Sundays they play...

What you leave behind

Well, its the end of a chapter today. Colin and Kristin are moving home to Texas. I went over to Colin's place, which is also my old apartment, to take some food off their hands. While there I picked up a few things that were mine that I had left there like my ironing board and a wooden shelving unit that I had in the kitchen there.Well it turns...

Total Geekiness

So I’m a complete and utter geek. I’m sure you all knew that by now. The fun thing about working at a technical college is that I get to play with all sorts of toys. Currently I’m working on my new PC which is a Dell Optiplex 620. It is a Dual Core 3.2 GHz x64 processor with 2 Gigs of RAM and a RADEON X600 video card powering dual monitors.While...

And so it begins...

Well, its time to start looking into getting a new car. The audi which has done so well for me for the last 6 years is getting to the point where its time to replace it. The car itself is about 10 years old; it's a '97 model. Servicing the car is just going to get more expensive from here and I don't want to worry about that. I'd prefer to have...

Caught in between

Its kind of wierd. I've been in a wierd mood all night. On the one hand I've enjoyed the peace and quiet and relaxation of being by myself. On the other hand I really wanted to go out and do something fun with friends. On the other hand I really didn't want to break the silence and deal with other people. On the other hand I was feeling lonely.Maybe...

Star light, star bright

Equally wonderful is to see the stars at night for the first time in ages. Also the moon, as I left Frank and Kates from a wonderful evening of cards, was a huge and low on the horizon and a beautiful shade of red. Here's to hoping we have more days without rain this we...

Soaked

So I'm really sick and tired of the rain. It was relaxing and soothing to hear it on the roof when it was once in a while, NOT when it is constant and neverending. It is now day 8 of rain. It has rained just about every day since the 8th. When its not raining its misting, or just plain chilly and overcast. To top it all off we are scheduled for...

I hate scam artists

So I've listed my condo on roommates.com in the hopes of finding someone worthwhile to have as a roommate. All well and good.The other day I receive an e-mail from a girl in the UK who is planning on moving to the US. That's cool I think. I check out the profile to get more info. The profile looks ok but a few alarm bells go off when I notice that...

Good times

Well this weekend has been a lot of fun. Friday I held an AYO gathering at my place and I think it went very well. I think I'll have another one at the beginning of the year.Yesterday I spent the day in Boston with Henry, Mario, Emar, Sam, Radik, Randy and a few others for Janelle's birthday party pub crawl. We started at Boston Beerworks on Canal...

Up on the roof...

So another benefit of living on the top floor that I recently discovered, other than not having people walking across my ceiling, is that when it rains, I get to enjoy the sound that the rain makes when falling on the roof. Its really kind of nice to be able to look out and watch the rain as it falls on the roof above. Very relaxi...

Silence at last

So about a week ago my computer's system fan died. Thankfully the BIOS is set to suspend the system if the CPU temperture gets too hot so nothing catastrophic happened. I got a temporary fan from a co-worker who warned me that it was a bit loud. Well he was right, it was a jet engine. I immediately went online and bought a "silent" fan. The good...
