it’s okay, I’m with the band… (my gold mask concert)
Friday, May 29th, 2009Back in February, Dani and I stumbled upon a concert while joining up with some friends at the bottle… Through the wonders of the interwebs, I have been able to sort of keep tabs on one of the bands and then recently found out they would be playing in my neighborhood… last night…
No worries though. [...]
being productive (a stick figure puppet show!)
Wednesday, May 27th, 2009A year or two ago, I started a comic-like-blog-thing… a little side project called The Fledgling Adult… It’s been on hiatus for about a year now, which is really a shame. I liked the blog-thing, it was just time consuming…
Recently, during one of my sushi lunches at work, I decided to have a little fun.. [...]
home sweet ..ikea… (making my apt more like a home)
Tuesday, May 26th, 2009I am a strong believer that we should have more three-day weekends. I will admit, though, that these extended holiday weekends really don’t hold the same meaning as they once did. I’m not overly patriotic at all, nor am I necessarily sympathetic with the military… however, at the same time I do think it’s sad [...]
dating – I’m still trying (or: explaining Dani’s two call rule)
Wednesday, May 20th, 2009When it comes to dating (not necessarily relationships) and pursuing people, I’ve had some interesting experiences since my last relationship (which ended 4 years ago). For a while, I wasn’t ready to date again — not necessarily because I was “so heart broken” but because of some other life events as well. However, when I [...]
Daddy? I want to be a scientist….
Monday, May 18th, 2009If you ever wanted to know more about me, well xkcd has a very fitting comic that might help:
When I saw it this morning, I knew I had to print it out and add it to the small collection on my wall… I could see this scenario playing out in my life. Flying shark and [...]
Have you met the floor?
Thursday, May 14th, 2009Ah.. Spring is here… Everything is this luscious shade of green, the birds are singing, flowers blooming, everything with a pulse is on a quest to shack up, and world around me begins spinning and tilting to the point where I begin spontaneously falling. Along with my pollen allergies, I can always tell when spring [...]
oh babe, I really hate to go…
Wednesday, May 13th, 2009What do you do when you find yourself being attracted to someone who’s leaving in two weeks?
I don’t mean moving to a different neighborhood or anything, I mean moving. Packing everything up and moving hundreds of miles away. You’re just getting to know someone, to really enjoy them… and then before you can catch your [...]
puppy love (or: why I really don’t *need* to adopt a puppy)
Friday, May 8th, 2009That handsome boy is my Dexter.
Also known as The Best Dog Ever.
I got my DexterBoo* for my 14th Birthday. All those years of having “puppy” on my birthday and Christmas wish lists paid off. I don’t know what my mom was thinking or why she caved, but what kid is going to argue — I [...]
proof! (looking cute while playing a baritone is a challenge)
Wednesday, May 6th, 2009While I do love the combo of my pink mouthpiece and my blue (azure/turquoise) dress… like I mentioned, it is a challenge to look damn cute while playing a bariphonium. I did look cute though. And that night my bandmates and I nailed the damn awesome part.
greetings! from… not new zealand….
Tuesday, May 5th, 2009Well I’ve returned from my short-lived affair, gallivanting with kiwis… Though my love for Jemaine will never die, there are just things here in the Second City I can’t abandon… not to mention the whole long-term girlfriend/WIFE that he’s got…
I’ve got responsibilities to my kittens (who celebrated their first birthday a couple weeks ago… well, [...]
