I got my first graduation present today. It was a gift from my friend Jessica. It is a tiny, plastic, HO scale prostitute. We found it at a local hobby store 3 years ago and we’ve been making jokes about it ever since. So now I own it. We’re positive its the same model the read more

the boys, they love me. at least a couple of them…Derek and Chris went out today to help find me an apartment. Derek fell in love with a couple of places, and I have a LOT of phone calls to make tomorrow…Like, ten. Uffda. I just need a place to live. Please? The place that read more

i don’t have a lot to say right now. its a time of some serious weirdness in my life. i have so very little left of my undergraduate career and my stay in north dakota…i stayed home tonight with the intention of cleaning up, doing laundry and beginning to pack my things…well, its 11.20 pm read more

i am done. that is all. i am very happy and spent last night getting very drunk with some people i care a great deal about as well as some people i do not care much about. it was fantastic. I really really want these shoes. however, they are $175 which is far more than read more

So, now we have CGI Garfield. Because Garfield is so funny to begin with. Because Garfield translates well to long-format movies. Because Garfield movies shouldn’t be some lame cartoons from the 80’s with a family geared moral lesson at the end…That’s what’s right, not this weird, cgi lame-looking movie. And come on folks, the comic read more

…this is a t-pin…alright folks. i am officially exhausted and pretty well high from prismacolor markers–which is entirely not as much fun as one would think, my lungs are all funky and I’m coughing a lot. And my room smells like cow poo from having to have the window open. Cow poo and alcohol-based graphic read more

Greetings all. I’m doing a special guest post for Bon as she is up to here neck in trying to get her thesis done. I’m Derek, but you probably know me better as “The Boy.” We decided it might be a good idea to let you get to know me as I’ll be keeping you read more

This website weirds me out. Not as a stand alone, but as in the past month 3 people have requested information about me. Ranging from social to professional. Now, the social I thought I could explain as I have a profile up at roommates.com because I was entertaining the thought of just moving in with read more

I am so tired of this “low-carb”, “carbs are evil” bullshit. I guess this summer Pepsi, and possibly Coke are going to start producing mid-carb sodas. Pepsi will start making Pepsi Edge, which will be made from half corn syrup and half splenda. Pepsi estimates that 60 million consumers drink both regular and diet soft read more

This blog is 1 year and 2 days old since the first currently published entry. This is actually the second blog I’ve had, or the third. The first was 5 years ago. This one actually started sometime in late 2002 but I deleted the backlog because I was a mess. It also used to be read more

Today, I whored my brain out for a bit. I participated in a 3 hour standardized testing session for $45. Why? Because I need a haircut. And new shoes. And to move halfway across the country. It wasn’t that bad, although the essay portion of the test (EST’s academic profile) was a pain in the read more

A new chemical concocted by scientists at the Tyco’s Fire and Security Division looks and acts just like water except for one thing… it doesn’t get things wet.
