Today I watched Jet Li’s Fearless. I think it was a very good movie. The acting was not to western taste, meaning it wasn’t naturalist, but the story told was a good and interesting one and it was well told.
While on my cruise I laid out a plan of action if you will remember. Upon [...]

Credit card

My new credit card finally arrived today. It’s about time. I only applied a month ago. It’s one of those reward program cards. Of course, now that it’s arrived I find out that my credit limit is $300. That’s pitiful.
Oh well. Hopefully it will keep me in check.

Well, such momentum couldn’t last forever without effort. It’s been hard for me to come to this blog recently. I’ve had things to write, but I just didn’t feel like writing them. Yet again, however, I am determined not to let this endevor fail. I will continue this blog.
Part of the problem is the video [...]

My blog has recently been getting a fair amount of traffic from two German BLogs. I wish I spoke German so that I could really read them. I can sort of understand using translate.google.com as a crutch, but I’m missing so much of the nuance that I’m sure is in their writing. Anyway I’m glad [...]
1 1/2 more weeks

Video games consume my life. I got a new TV (1080p) and so started playing Final Fantasy XII again. As a result I have gotten nothing done for almost a week.
I put in my two weeks notice on Saturday. After New Year’s Eve, and then the wedding on Friday I just couldn’t take it anymore. [...]
Poetry, I fail

It’s been a long time since I wrote anything here. And while plenty has happened, I feel like there really isn’t any story to tell.
I’m fairly certain that last Wednesday was the last day I’ll ever see the tray taker boy, since the busy season is pretty much over now. I’ve been in the Chase [...]
Tray taker

I should be in bed, sleeping. Instead I’m writing this. I’m going to regret it…
Today at work the cute tray taker was back again. For goodness sake, I can’t seem to let it rest with this boy, can I? I don’t really know what it is about this boy that enchants me, but he does. [...]

***Warning!*** This post contains possible spoilers for the movie The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. If you have not seen that movie and would maybe like to, consider not reading this post. Or read until I mark the section about the movie. Or better yet, go rent it. Right Now. Or if it’s still in [...]
Fool that I am

I feel like I’ve been remiss in my duties having gone through so much and written none of it down.
On Friday I indeed called in sick for work. Unfortunately, my manager called me back and begged me to come in anyway. And fool that I am, I said yes. So I worked myself ragged, thus [...]
