Well I am down here in school. School has not started yet but it will soon. My apartment was pretty dirty but we started cleaning it up and it is becoming more hospitable everyday. Sonny helped clean it and honestly cleaned more of it. He is really helping to make this a pleasant experience for me. So in thanks I am giving him some sausage...... Read More
Well I am leaving for Bloomington Normal today. Well I hope to. I just have to get my shit downtown and get to the Greyhound station. Once there I pick up my ticket and then I should be in Bloomington by 2:30 or so.
Anyways I gave Jenny a St. Therese medal, and a book on St. Therese. That is her confirmation name. I wanted... Read More
I moved into my new apartment. It is filthy. Sonny and his former roommate Tony llived like savages. There is garbage all over the floor. Crumbs and stains litter the counter. Sonnys Enduring Freedom knife was unfolded and laying open on the counter. The glass coffee table was into 2 big shards and stacked on the bottom piece of it.... Read More
I've got dial up, and after 20 minutes I'm at 44 seconds downloaded out of six minutes and something. This is gonna take awhile Thanks for sharing it with me
I am going to go to chruch with Jenny today. Its kind of strange because she hasnt really talked to me in a long time. I dont know if she is completely single but I know she aint interested in me that way. Perhaps she will have changed her mind about me (hopefully). She seems a lot more serious now than before which I am... Read More
Well Christmas was not to bad. I got a lot of clothes and some money. Bill and Mikey got me a lot of books so I will be reading a lot in the coming year.
My friend Joe got engaged and I met him up for a drink at the local pub. Anyways I met a few friends of his (all 3 were Chicago PD)... Read More
Well I got off work a few hours ago and need to get ready to sleep.
I am so fucking tired. Some bad news....
Southern Illinois University thinks I am going back and my Stafford Loans were directed there!!! What the fuck?!?! I did not have anyone send them any fucking information so I dont know why they think I am going there. I have... Read More
The great thing about college/university is that there is usually a gym where students can work out for free Last year I got an annual pass for the rec centre and it's been the best money I've ever spent; even if I don't feel like working out, I can still go swimming or just lounge in the hot tub.
I am going broke. To many fucking good movies are coming out. I just bought Mikey "FireFly" and "Fearless". I dont know what he got me for Christmas yet. However I trust him and he says I will love it. I just bought "A Scanner Darkly" for myself. IT looks amazing and I just popped it in. I will repost more later.
Yeah I've gone on a huge DVD spree recently as well. I was just wondering to myself what the hell I will do with all of them when the DVD becomes as outdated as the VHS.
Oh, and Marvel if you would like to do more holiday baking and it happens to be funfetti cupcakes let me know.
Of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she had to walk into mine. Rick in "Casablanca"
That is basically how I can sum up the way I have been feeling lately. Jennifer is single again and she is playing with my head again. I guess I am at fault for instant messenging her. However she replied and we had... Read More
So I rented "Kicking and Screaming" because Da Coach was in it. I like Will Ferrel but I am a bigger fan of Mike Ditka. I rented due to the suggestion of Mikey and Bill. They said you have to be a Chicagoian to understand it and I agree somewhat.
I am kind of angry at one of the mods on THR for wanting to... Read More
Your blog is long, so I'm going to reply in point form.
- I saw Kicking and Screaming in the theatre - I didn't like it. I love Will Ferrel, but some of his movie choices... I dunno. Did you see BeWitched? OMG, I had to sit thru that one on chick-flick night and I seriously could've napped through it.
- THR? I'm on the verge of getting kicked out of my regional group for having somewhat seperatist thoughts.
- I'm sure once you're all settled at ISU you'll make tons of new friends.
- my car just hit 250 000km the other week - I'm terrified it's going to die on me
- my New Years plans include hanging on my couch with some wine and my dogs, and maybe some new video games. Ha! How's that for exciting?
Well things are going well I guess. It was Bills birthday so I went there after work. I called off yesterday and slept all day. Today I came into work and got out real late. It was busy and all the assholes in my town came in. So my plans to go with all the guys to dinner got screwed. Anyways once we got to... Read More
I am thinking of getting my sisters nothing. Instead I will use the money I would have spent on their presents to make a donation. I read about this family in the local paper and it really touched my heart.
Here is the article...
'I have nothing to give my kids'
Mom, 7 kids struggle since dad died three years ago
I think that's a great idea - we spend way too much as it is on Christmas in North America. Giving (especially to those less fortunate) is what this season is supposed to be about. Good for you.
"Miami Vice" came out on dvd today along with POTC: Dead Mans Chest. It truly was a good day for the film industry. I bought both while Christmas shopping for my sisters. I am not sure what to get either of them. I think I am going to get both of them Panera Bread gift certificates. I figure they will use them so... Read More

I love them too much to eat them.
Rugby is my favorite sport, have you played before?
Oh, and glad to hear you are getting settled at school and all that.
I was a lock forward (2nd row) for the length of my career.
