Happy new year!
Let's bow our heads and hope 2006 is a hell of a lot less violent than 2005.

A pretty awful Christmas (oops...sory! "Holiday") office party this evening. Only half the company showed up, and all they played for two straight hours was 80's pop. At least there was an open bar...

I loved it. It was a surreal experience. I almost felt like I was watching a documentary at times. After the movie ended, the whole audience was uncharacteristically silent. It was like everyone was still taking it all in. Phillip Seymour Hoffman was amazing.

Day off. Shopping for colleges (nursing schools to be specific)...looks like Portland is a good place to study.
Key lime pie would taste good today...
Got a cheap ticket to South Carolina today...It'll be hot and muggy in August, but at least I'll get to see Charleston again. I miss the south...maybe I should move back permanently 
Oh well.
Oh well.

The city of Portland has been virtually shut down since Tuesday morning. At first I thought it would be fun to stay home from work...finish some good novels, watch a few movies...but I am going nuts!
Cabin fever has set in, and it's just me, the cat, and hour upon hour of useless TV coverage of rotten weather. If it weren't for coffee and the...

A clever quote for the little Buddhist in all of us:
"To be a human is easy, to live a human life is hard; to desire to be human a second time is even harder. If you want release from the wheel, persevere."
