So I made a run for the border last night. I am happily chomping away at some Taco Bell and working at the office and look down to see something cute. My hot sauce wanted to marry me. Awww…. I don’t even notice the little messages on these hot sauce packets half the time… so…

Lest my last entry be construed to mean that life isn’t that great and that that is the reason why I look for little things to appreciate… I will say that such is not the case. Life is amazing. Today I share a nugget of wisdom. I’ve heard it said many ways: “When a problem…

I used to use the blog to rant a lot. I might sometime still. But today I just wanted to share something small that I appreciated. I called up this online store that I just ordered some software on to ask them when the software I ordered would be available (finding out after placing the…

Ahh, I love my 80’s childhood. A few months ago I got talking to Dan about the pan pipe music in the Karate Kid II forum, and started searching for the score online. Turns out it was never released on CD, though I think you could find some music from the first movie online. Disappointing,…

I remember after watching the first few episodes of season 2 of Lost, there was some speculation about what that would do to your body if you had to press a button ever 108 minutes and so couldn’t sleep longer than a few hours at a time. Seems like some people found that you could…

It’s not that I particularly am dying to share this music or video with anyone. It’s just not out on CD for a few more months and I enjoy listening to it. So to save me the effort of digging it up at Youtube, I thought I’d just slap it on here. Besides… it’s been…

I have been oblivious to the Valentines season this year. Until Saturday, when I went to get some hot wing sauce for the superbowl the next day, and I was bombarded with pink and red. “Oh yeah!” As I remembered what time of year it was. This week Kathy brought in some chocolate for the…

The title is from one of many classic moments in the movie “The Burbs”, if you didn’t know. Definitely a show you need to watch if you haven’t seen it (and if you have seen it, you still need to watch it.) So it actually worked. I was driving along 12600 so. today in the…

One of the things I began to learn how to do a couple weeks ago in the Landmark Forum was to be present. It’s kind of an awareness of the here and now, an awareness of those around you. Ever gotten in your car and driven somewhere that you go regulary (like work) and then…

Can someone explain how it is that in this butt-cold weather I STILL see women wearing sandals and other open-toe shoes? Yeesh.

Just thought I’d throw this out there– I registered recently for something called the Landmark Forum, a course of sorts put on by an organization called Landmark Education. The course started last Friday, went through Sunday, and then the final portion is tomorrow night (Tuesday) at 7:30pm. The experience is having a profound impact on…

With a range of thoughts and feelings swirling around my mind and heart, I felt a need to express a thought in print tonight. I’m not even sure why I feel what I feel right now, it will suffice to say that music has been a catalyst. I’m not sure exactly who I’m writing to–…

So I was looking at a card reader for the MacBook Pro today on Amazon and found something kinda quirky in the suggestions section: Hehehe… I love the randomness. You could by this card reader, that one, this other one, OR you could just buy Season Five of 24. YES. Who needs card readers when…

So there’s a new girl in my life. I’m on cloud nine, she’s amazing– she’s fun, she makes me smile, she’s beautiful, she makes my heart race, she makes me feel like a million bucks…. Wanna meet her?

…. not. So since high school I’ve had this thing for fake ribs. I believe it started with some Quake comics in which the protagonists were revitalized by eating riblets. It became kind of a Quake joke to eat riblets– those fake tv dinner bbq pork ribs. I remember eating them on a couple of…
