I am Error
April 29th, 2005I woke up this morning, put on a Friday standard t-shirt and jeans, and walked out the door to greet: 48 degrees. Ma Nature is hereby enjoined from being frigid cold within 2 weeks of May.
In my ongoing distrust with large corporations, I'm starting… more »
The first 'L' was especially tasty
April 28th, 2005Just wanted to let people know that I got some really awesome presents for the birthday, which, I'm told, is apparently ongoing. Denise got the season of The West Wing that I have been going on and on about since time immemorial. I've already watched 5… more »
Spontaneous spondee
April 26th, 2005(Bi|Ea)rthday was fantabulous. My eternal and heart-felt gratitude to all those that expressed their birthday wishes in all their myriad forms. I really and truly had no idea so many people cared. Special thanks to three: the Fikee for throwing a fant… more »
Wouldn't you like to be a Belmont too?
April 21st, 2005Apparently Ford is considering selling off the lifeblood of my financial being. It's pretty creepy to think about being downsized at 21. I guess this is why I don't trust large corporations (or small ones, or...). When did I grow up?
I'm really bad a… more »
Inquizzical for the future
April 19th, 2005So Benedict XVI, formerly Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, has been elected as the eighth German to wear that rockin' hat. Joe seems like an interesting character: a Nazi deserter, at Vatican II, and long-time head of the head of the Congregation for the Doctr… more »
We are at the mercy of circumstance
April 18th, 2005Quite the weekend:
Friday. Chris Brodt mourns 20 years of youth squandered on "making friends" and "listening to good music" by hosting the 2nd largest bash his apartment has ever seen. I became the 2nd drunkest Billy his apartment has ever seen. Sev… more »
Intrigue giveth and the tax man taketh away
April 14th, 2005Yesterday, my 1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue passed 88888 miles as I was driving to class. I love that number, since it uses 100% of the available LEDs to send its long-traveled information to my eyes. I like how it lets me know that the whole odometer is wo… more »
200 square feet of shiny silver guilt
April 12th, 2005Overslept for work today. I need to quit doing that. This makes 3 times in the last year. I don't think it's becoming a thing, but this is my tragic flaw when it comes to the corporate world. Hopefully I'm just overreacting.
Per special request fr… more »
I must have missed the kickoff
April 10th, 2005Spent a lovely evening down in Norman with Sandra and company and got to enjoy my first experience with Pita Pit, thanks to Ryleigh. It's apparently the new hotness on campus with its hours rivaling even places that shuttle pizzas and its generally tast… more »
Must be present to win a continuance
April 8th, 2005A kink has arisen in the now apparently annual plan to hit up Nawlins over Memorial Day weekend. It seems that the propriators of the New Orleans Grand Palace have decided to give up the ghost so to speak, and have removed that hotel from all online boo… more »
Try not to think of it as inhaling cedar sperm
April 6th, 2005And the winner in this week's race for "Most obnoxious substance" is...
Yes, and since I very rarely if ever take any form of medication for my ailments, even the single antihistamine tablet so generously made generic by Wallgreen's flattens me in tha… more »
March like November
April 4th, 2005Results for districts are in and some sleeper picks have taken the title. PCO and Norman? How does that work? I don't know. I didn't vote for them, nor did I watch the final rounds. Good for them, though, as I know that those kids work hard enough t… more »
