I promise my diatribe on the inherent insanity of skiing will be forthcoming once I’ve skiied again. Like I said, I took today off cause I still felt kinda crappy, and obviously I took yesterday off since I felt like total shit. However, I am going tomorrow, come hell, high water, or the predicted 1-3 ...

I really like the Washington Post’s “Under 30” advice columnist, Carolyn Hax. Her advice, while theoretically geared toward the young, is really funny and quite applicable to everyone. She had a gem earlier this week when she was asked by a man who felt “boyfriend” and “girlfriend” were too immature for him what appropriate other ...

Sorry I haven’t posted for a couple of days, the little cold bug I’ve been fighting off for the last couple weeks came back to bite me squarely in the ass once it realized I was relaxing, and I felt like garbage yesterday. Plus, I went and saw the late show of Lord of the ...

I really love IMing with drunk people: (anonymous): you graduated from NU (anonymous): that is a huge acomopsiuhment (anonymous): DNT EVER FORGET TIT Don’t worry, I never forget tit.

You know, I tried to type a bunch of this shit yesterday, and what happens? The second I try to post, Blogger crashed AOL, eating the post and severing my connection. Figures. Anyway, I have finally managed to make it out to Idaho in one piece, only taking five days and 1900 miles of driving. ...

I made it into Salt Lake City yesterday, after a tour of the fabulous flatness that is most of Illinois, Iowa, and Nebraska, and the ear-popping joy of driving over multiple mountain ranges in Wyoming and Utah. It’s an entertaining little drive (ok, not so little…more like 1400 miles…), a vast amount of nothingness interrupted ...

I’ll be off having a Kerouac-style adventure and/or trying not to slide into a snowbank for the next three weeks or so, so posts here are about to get random and sporadic. I’ll be driving from here to Salt Lake City starting tomorrow morning, then picking up my dad to go skiing in Sun Valley, ...

I got a higher score on the Southerner Quiz than an actual Southerner. Joel (who’s from South Carolina, which is way more of a part of the south than D.C.) got a 73, and I got a 77. He did ask me a logical question, though, when I IM’ed him to gloat: Me: hahahaha, i ...

Approximate amount I paid for books I sold back today: $250. Amount I got back for said books: $20.50. Fucking hell. It was barely enough to buy me a CD at Best Buy.

That waitress who was hitting on me the other night? I got her email address tonight. (pause for applause). It was excellent, because I went to Bar Louie with Nate, and we initially didn’t see her, though it turned out she was working this insanely busy section of the bar (not ours), so I thought ...
