I'm going out tonight. You can take a guess as to what I'll be doing. The new blog is nearly finished. It would have gone up tonight but I don't have time to get to it this evening. Perhaps, if you're good, you'll get a surprise this weekend...

It's getting to the point where I can't watch my stories (TeeVee!) anymore. Once I hit that couch I start to fall asleep. I've got several days worth of shows saved on my DVR. And I can't watch them, no matter how hard I try. I forced myself to watch my favorite show, Lost, and the whole episode felt like a blur. I can barely remember what happened in the episode. As I was watching it and

I'm sitting here in my tower with a space heater between my legs and I'm freezing. It's just really, really cold. I'd forgotten what January was supposed to feel like. We've been having fifty degree days and now, all of a sudden, the weather thinks it's okay to just drop the temperature on me. Not cool. Not cool at all. Er... wait. Anyway, what with the price of natural gas being what it is, it's

This evening I went grocery shopping and I did the laundry. There was no drinking involved and nobody got hurt. Between these things I managed to find time to watch The Aristocrats. The movie was not as funny as I thought it would be but it was certainly worth watching. It is a documentary about a joke. A dirty, horrid, filthy joke. A joke I have myself told in the past. I try to keep my posts

In just a matter of days I will be launching the new blog. My days here are numbered. Don't worry - everything will transition smoothly and all of my best posts will be transferred over. The archives of this blog will also remain available, so any links you may have made to certain posts will not be broken.

As you all know, I went out drinking last night. Bar hopping. We were out, having a good time, whatever. So we wind up in this one bar. I go to order some drinks. One of my friends hands me a few bucks to pay for his. The total comes to $11.I look at the pile of cash I have. I have a bunch of singles, but not eleven of them. I also have a twenty. Then, being the kind of person I am, I realize I

Remember that woman who claimed to have found a finger in her bowl of Wendy's chili? It's been known from the beginning that she was a dirty liar and now she's getting what she deserves: nine years in prison. Her husband was sentenced to twelve. Yes, they deserve it. The sentences are not unreasonable. What is unreasonable is that you can get less time for committing murder. Still, it's nice to

Everything is starting to feel normal. My mail is now showing up (after a couple phone conversations with the post office). I've been eating pizza every night. Things feel right.Now, to answer the question below. All the guesses were too high. What? Do you guys think I'm an alcoholic or something? ;) Come to think of it, maybe I am. I've had alcohol thirteen out of the first seventeen days of

Okay. So I watched the first four hours of 24 tonight. Man, that show is as great as ever.I didn't watch it last night because I went to a bar and got drunk. On rum and cokes. Yes, I did, indeed. It was fun. Rum makes me tired, though. Maybe I should try drinking rum every night before I go to bed. I'd probably sleep better. I woke up this morning refreshed and stuff because I was able to both

24 returns tonight. 24 is one of my favorite shows. I'm excited. The only question is whether or not I actually get to watch it tonight. If I don't I'll have a pretty good excuse. Good thing I have a DVR.

This is not the right time to change my sleeping patterns. It's going to have to wait until the summer. Or maybe next weekend. I haven't decided yet.

I've been reading about this guy's experiment with polyphasic sleep. Polyphasic sleeping involves taking several 15-30 minute naps every day instead of sleeping for several hours at night. As I've mentioned several times on here, I'm constantly tired. It doesn't seem to matter how much sleep I get at night. In fact, it seems the more sleep I get, the more tired I am. I'm actually considering

I was sound asleep last night. You know, having a good sleep and everything. Getting my rest in. That sort of thing. I was having dreams I can no longer remember. But you know how an outside sound can infiltrate your dreams and change them? Then everything seems wrong. So wrong you wake up dazed and confused? That happened to me. Last night. I awoke to the sound of the police yelling into a

So mail started showing up at my new place. For two days. Then it stopped. No more mail. Then yesterday I got an e-mail from my insurance company telling me mail they had tried to send me was returned to them. For no reason whatsoever. That's just great. If I don't get mail tomorrow I'm going postal. I swear it.

I just read some incredible news. Something I never thought would happen has happened. Nintendo has the rights to Tetris again! Everybody loves Tetris, especially the Game Boy version. It was all sorts of awesome. Several years ago some other less reputable company got the rights to Tetris and proceeded to release crappy versions of the game. No longer! It's back where it belongs... on the DS!

So I've got this great place in the city and there should always be something going on. But there's not and I'm bored. After work I'm too exhausted to do anything, so I take a nap. Then I wake up hours later with nothing to do but watch TV. I can't go out now because it's late and I have to work in the morning. It's a freaking vicious cycle.

So... politics. I haven't really been following them lately. Of course, I've been busy. I've had a lot of other stuff on my mind. But let's face it, this blog hasn't been a political blog in quite awhile. It hasn't been much in quite awhile, for that matter, but it has been updated every single day, primarily with useless crap and personal stuff. As I sit here planning the new blog, I wonder what

I arrived home today and found some of my mail had been delivered to my new address. Joy. But that was not my ultimate goal. No, sir. I want a P.O. Box. I simply don't trust that my mail is safe in the unsecured mail box provided in my building. Today I went to the post office to get one. If security was my concern, I won't have a problem here - even I can't get into the box! They gave me one of

I submitted my address change to the post office last week. I have yet to receive any mail at my new address. Where the hell is my mail? What is the post office doing with it? Nobody knows. All I know is I'm pissed. Whatever is going on, it's unacceptable. I need my mail. Who can I sue over this?

I've still got a lot of stuff to unpack. I always thought I'd be one of those people who just unpacked everything the day they moved into a new place. Yeah, right.I don't remember what I did the last time I moved. I don't recall having boxes all over the place. But I must have. I'm a much more focused and organized person now than I was many, many years ago. So why can't I remember mountains of

One of the first things I did in 2006 involved removing alcohol (among other things) from my system the same way it went in. That didn't feel good. Not one bit. That's what I get for going so long without having a drink. I'll try not to let it happen again.But the end of 2005 went very well. I had fun at the party. Friends gave me gifts which I probably didn't deserve but I'm thankful for anyway.

Here it is. 2005 is finished. I'm now completely moved in (although far from unpacked) and trying to put my life back together. I'm still adjusting to my new life here in the city. Everything is different. I've got an awesome view of the city. Starting next year (way to make a day sound far away) I'll be posting some of the cool pictures of the view I've taken.

Category: MiscThe deals still need to be finalized and the papers still need to be signed, but I have found a place... in the city. I've been living in the middle of nowhere for the past several years. That's all about to change. I'm moving into a building downtown. I'll be in the top floor of the building, with a deck that has a view of the entire city. I will look down from my building and gaze

Category: MiscI've been packing up my stuff this evening. It's very depressing. In just a couple weeks I'll close my door for the last time. Sure, soon I'll get used to the new place and forget about the old one, but for the time being, it's very sad.

I've got a good feeling about the place, and I hope you do, too. My plan is to force things to move smoothly. With any luck my downtime will be limited to less than a day.
