Have you ever been in that mood where you’re simultaneously okay with the world, but mildly depressed?
I ran the Fall Fest 5K this weekend. It was ice cold Saturday morning and there was no sun until about halfway through the race. I started out at a good steady pace, but I thought I might be [...]

Sufficed to say, the drill over the weekend went less well than expected. I suffered a gunshot wound to the chest [...]

First and foremost,Happy Birthday to my Mom! Also, Happy Anniversary to myparents! Aside: Actual parents not pictured. A guy could not have asked for two greater parents…and I’m sure that C will agree that they’re two of the best in-laws around.

I had a rough weekend. It wasn’t bad…it was just long. Friday night C was sick…which lasted into Saturday and part of Sunday. Even today she’s [...]

Okay, well, at least the Yankees lost. That’s some comfort. But on to more important things.
I got a 91 on my midterm in Historical Geography. OUTSTANDING! I was a little worried about it because this professor is not so forgiving of people who are morons. I’m also doing well in my Human Society & Environment class. Things [...]

I had a long weekend. I got to see the Kusun Ensemble(Thanks JLuv!) on Friday night. Awesome, check out the review on the Entertainment page. Saturday, I [...]
