I initially planned on giving you several intense journal entries detailing the reasoning behind my dramatic life change occurring soon. But with everything in my head right now, I was only able to get one journal entry down (in my actual physical journal). So to cut to the chase, I now announce to you all
i haven't updated in a while because i've had a lot on my mind. i've been thinking about big things and have made a seriously BIG decision. though i'm not ready to disclose it to everyone yet, i shall in a week or so. but i will be doing some extensive journal entries in the next couple days that will reveal...

I love school too... Unfortunately the class that I was really excited about (the human resources one) isn't what I expected. I'm hoping it gets better.
Hope your ominous journal entry isn't as ominous as it sounds.
So for the last couple years, I tend to get downhearted around this time. Why? Because everyone is headed back to class, and I wish I was doing the same. I know it sounds crazy, but I love school and I miss it. The higher education, the constant feedback, the sharing of opinions. Hell, I even miss doing the research. I belong in the classroom....

So I have once again been blown away by the beauty that is Literature. I just read the new novel My Dreams Out in the Street, from my favorite poet/writer Kim Addonizio. It was gripping, emotional, and the most effectively written piece of fiction I've read in a long time. I've followed Addonizio's work for several years now, and personally she has been the...

To further explain my last entry... Tegan & Sara gave a small free show at World Cafe Life last friday. Afterwards they held a meet 'n greet, which is where i explained how sad i was at not having my camera to take a picture with them. So they gave me a group hug instead. Which is... Read More
So, sometimes i feel like there are so little highlights in my life. However today was not one of those days. Why you ask. Because...
I FUCKING MET TEGAN & SARA!!!!!!
Yup, one of my all-time favorite bands and I met them. And hugged them! It was a group hug; an arm around each of them. I can't explain how much of a high I'm... Read More
Heh, yeah...the association for me isn't quite as direct as I think I inadvertently made it out to be...it's more that for me the time it seemed right to take out my facial piercings happened to coincide with a ritual (graduation) widely viewed as the official entry into Adulthood with a capital A. I don't particularly view it as a cause and effect thing. Not to mention I'm sure as shit not done getting tattoos!
East Coast Camping. I'm sure plenty will be written about it all over the place, so i won't. I'll just say i had a wonderful time.
It was great to see old friends and make new ones. Love goes out to all of you. And extra special lovin goes to the usual suspects (pinch, Gadget, Aragorn97) and to the new suspects... Read More
I'm due August 10th. Who knows if he will make his appearance before that though. We've spent so much energy trying to keep him from coming too early, he'll probably come late on purpose now!
So far my summer has been pretty unexciting and dull. Pretty much the m.o. for my life these days. Hopefully after this week, i'll have at least one highlight.
So this week i said goodbye to 2 friends, in totally different ways, for totally different reasons, with totally different emotions connected to them. One on good terms, the other not.
The only similarity the two instances have with each other is that i wish that i didn't have to say goodbye to either.
I've really been wanting to read Runaways. It looks really good. They are part of the Civil War and I've wanted to read up on them before I get into what they are doing now.
