I finally broke down and decided to shell out a shitload of money to fix my car. When I think of the amount of insane, drunken fun I could've had with that much money, I get a little sad. I mean, it would have been my body-weight in bourbon.

However, my car is running like a dream now. I'm not sure it's ever been this...

I think it may be time to shoot my car. I went out to it yesterday and the oil leak it had for the past few weeks had turned into a hemorage. There was a big puddle underneath it. Now, I can't really be too mad at my car, because I've woken up a few mornings in the same condition. But now I have to...

So I want to go to graduate school. I want to go to graduate school at my old college. My college's board of regents has decided to cut funding to the literature (my major) department due to money problems and the fact that people don't give a shit about literature. Because of this, the department isn't taking any new graduate students.

Starting to see the...

Pardon me while I have a free-associational rant...

I don't exactly understand why, but lately I've been feeling very, very marginal. Most of my e-mails lately have gone unreplied. It doesn't matter that I forget to turn my cell phone off at work or the movies since no one ever calls me on it. I don't have a girlfriend and I can't remember the last...

Time does drag on. You keep your head down, focus on your shit, and before you know it damn-near a month has fallen off the calender. Maybe if I had done more with it, I'd have had more tales to feed your hungry little eyes.

But as it is you're going to have to settle for the mostly tedious and tiny minutae of the past...

I'm a godfather! Last Sunday, my nephew David was baptised and my sister asked me to be his godfather. Technically, co-godfather. My sister didn't want to have to choose between me and my brother, so we're sharing a godson. It's still an honor. The hardest part is being tempted to do a terrible Marlon Brando impression whenever I talk about it.

Oh, I know. I'm a naughty, naughty person. Who do I think I am to deprive you wonderful people of the joy that is me. Sorry it's been so long since I posted, but I had the dubious pleasure of working in the mall during the Christmas season. And yes, I do have a car now, but at my mall's parking lot, it doesn't help....

Isn't it amazing how nothing of consequence can happen to you for weeks on end? And then suddenly, shit falls from the sky in buckets?

Last week, I was walking to work while listening to my mp3 player when my headphones crap out on me. The right one just stopped working. That was a little annoying, but I was able to replace them for $15....

I am definitely an oddball. This weekend, everyone was going to see "Casino Royale" or, I dunno... the kids movie with the penguins. And what do I do, being the whirlwind of excitement that is me? Go to see "Don Giovanni" downtown. It's official: I'm a nerd.

Yesterday was not much fun.

My manager and I were doing an out-of-store event at 10 in the morning. This required us being at work at 6:30 to assemble the product, load it up, drive over, and set up. So after getting up at 5:30 (not a morning person, by the way), I was going to drive over. But wouldn't you know it. My car,...
