Why do I still have this stuff?

In my last post, I mentioned that I found another house to look at. I never did a follow-up post … oops. Well, here’s that follow-up: I bought the house!!! I close on the house next week Monday (on my birthday). I’ve been slowly packing up my apartment (slower than I’d like). As I’m packing, … Continue Reading

Is this the one?

At the beginning of this summer, I embarked on a new journey. I decided that I wanted to move forward on my dream of owning my own home. I’m actually surprised that I haven’t blogged about it at all. I’ve gotten extremely tired of my apartment. It’s a one bedroom with a living room that … Continue Reading

10 Years Later

Today is the 10 year anniversary of the tragedy at the World Trade Center in New York. Everyone seems to be posting memories, so I thought I would too. I didn’t have a blog back then. I didn’t start blogging until June 2002. Twitter and Facebook weren’t around back then either. So I’m going off … Continue Reading

The post that never was

I was all set to come here and write up a post. It wasn’t a very good post. It was a post bashing myself … calling myself names … being really mean to myself. I decided not to post it. I guess I could call that progress … if I wasn’t still thinking the stuff … Continue Reading

All it takes is that first step

I went on my first walk tonite. I was sitting around my apartment around 7pm bored out of my mind. It was either sit and stare mindlessly at my computer screen, go to bed early (waaaaaay early), or go for a walk. Surprisingly, I picked the last option. So I quickly shaved my legs (ewww … Continue Reading

I’m too old for this shit

Robin and I went out tonite. We went to Big D’s to see 32Below. No big deal right? Well … this was a “school nite*”. We haven’t been out on a “school nite” in years. But I had a blast. And I think Robin did too. I’m glad I went out. * Ok … neither … Continue Reading

So many plans …

So little motivation. :thud: I’ve been wanting to re-do this website and my professional/resume website for quite some time now. I keep coming up with ideas during the day when I’m at work, but when I get home … all motivation is gone. I don’t know if it’s because I’m working on other people’s websites … Continue Reading

Where’s the excitement?

Nothing really exciting has been going on with my work life. Yeah, I built my own custom CMS network that I think is pretty bad ass, but it’s just sitting there. No one has had time to work up a marketing plan for it (since it’s an internal project), so it isn’t being sold. I’m proud of … Continue Reading

I Wish …

I wish I didn’t care so much what people thought about me. I wish I didn’t try so hard to try to make people like me. I wish it was easier for me to make friends. I wish I was more carefree. I wish I would just do things rather than thinking them to death first. … Continue Reading

Going through the motions

Last nite I finally admitted to myself that I’m just going through the motions. I’m not really living my life. I keep telling myself that I want to do this or I’m going to do that. But what do I do? I get up in the morning … go to work, sitting in front of … Continue Reading
