I woke up this morning, took my meds and took a shower. I got ready for work, wasn’t rushed or hurried. Got to work, and students were lined up in their cars in the entranceway to the parking lot, waiting on a space to open up, none of them willing to budge. I begrudgingly went…
Friends For Sale: Like a Fraternity on Facebook!
Sorry for the cheap stab at the student greek community. Wait, no I’m not. That’s a lie. I totally meant it. So, there’s an application on Facebook, the popular online social site that lets people from different universities, work places, and all of oblivion connect with one another, whether you like it or not –…
UNC Cause – Day 2, Cont.
So the rest of the day was pretty uneventful. I went to a session on Career Banding, which ended up not really telling me anything except how to figure out what our banded pay should be versus what we make now. The other session I went to that was pretty neat was a presentation NC…
No Longer Cool
So for the last few years, I’ve noticed a trend: I’m no longer cool. I wasn’t all that cool to begin with – I preferred to be cool in a different way, by being a geek. Last night I was online trying to finish up an eBay transaction with a customer over the phone, and…
My First eBay Sale!
Congratulations go to big_man_69, who recently purchased one of the Sony PSPs I’m selling on eBay. There are still 9 left of the old 3.52 version, and I have 20 of the new Slim & Lite version of the PSP in Rose and Lavender colors. These are, of course, the Japanese models, because you can’t…
Holiday Gift Ideas
I’ve got a few top picks for gift ideas this holiday season, and because this is my blog and there’s not a darn thing you can do about it, I’m going to share them with you! Everyone loves a time-tested favorite, and they’re usually the safe way to go when you’ve got someone you’re unsure…
Sweeny Todd
Has anyone seen the preview for the Sweeny Todd movie with Johnny Depp in it? It looks pretty darn spiffy. I haven’t been a huge fan of anything of Johnny Depp’s other than the Pirates of the Carribean trilogy and Corpse Bride. Anytime he’s teamed up with Tim Burton I think I’m going to hop…
I Shot a Guy Once
You know what’s fun? Lying. It’s totally a sin and I understand that, but lots of sins are fun. I don’t think I even need to elaborate more on that. Sometimes, when I meet new people, I like to shock them immediately with some sort of horrendous lie. Depending on whether or not I might…
Grandma has Cancer
Anyone, everyone who reads this: My grandmother has breast cancer. She just found out yesterday. It hasn’t metastasized to anywhere else in her body, so she should be okay. She has opted to have the breast removed rather than go through chemotherapy. The doctors say that removing it entirely should eliminate the cancer completely. I…
Back in Black
You know you missed me! I’ve been busy lately, what with playing my used copies of Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II on my Playstation 2, going to Halloween parties, trying to get my self-employment gig started back up again, and evil diabolical plans and all. My new business is called “The Raging Tech,” –…
