tgit

Busy day today...work followed by happy hour, volleyball and my usual evening time-wasting activities. I dont know what I did to my shoulder @ vball but it hurts like crazy when I raise OR lower it :(

What is it about online relationships that makes people think they can treat others like crap? I'm sure my experieces are not among the worst out there, but sometimes you just gotta wonder whats going through a person's head. Like the great prophet Chapelle says, keep it real folks...

free the sunday

Just in time for superbowl sunday, I am finally finished with my last Sunday night volleyball league match. It was a sad way to end the season going down in flames in the first round of the playoffs, but all is not lost! I now have time to make the most of my Sundays without fear of interruption. I was tired of skipping dinner plans and cutting short afternoon activities for something I could do any other day of the week. Now, I can do more than just french toast at Forest Diner and Starbucks at B&N...yippie skippy.

Unfortunately, I just found out today that I do have a match on valentines day...WTF? I think I might have to miss that one...assuming I can find something better to do :P

laziness

Apparently in the past few weeks I have gotten more lazy with respect to posting entries here. I'm not exactly sure why that is...but I would like to propose a few reasons:

1. My fingers have a severe form of arthritis and I cant type fast anymore
2. I have been too busy playing World of Warcraft to make time for living my life
3. My dog ate my computer
4. I forgot my password
5. Nothing interesting has happened to me in the past week
6. I have been too busy saving the world from a secret alien power beyond your comprehension
7. My ninja training kept me "tied up"
8. My extra curricular activities kept me "tied up"
9. I had bird flu
10. I really did write interesting and thoughtful posts, but MySpace lost them somehow

I submit that one of the above is the true reason...see if you can guess which one!

Come to my superbowl party...the power of Christ compells you!

more mindless banter

Just once simple observation today...

It seems to me that the more time you spend thinking about something, the more likely it is that something else will come along to distract you or the world around you in such a way that all that mental energy becomes just another waste of time...entropy in the void to keep the universe happy and balanced.

Of course, as the odds decrease the potential winnings increase so whose in for another round?

Snow Day?

Thank you BGE for screwing up big time. I am off work today because of their incompetence. Apparently, the entire lab lacks electricity and it will not be back on until tomorrow at least. Since all I do is sit in front of a computer all day, I guess I can't do any work?

In the mean time, I be playing with some customization of my space. Apparently, you can add any HTML/CSS stuff you want into a particular information area. This is very useful for people who want a slick/slippery background or who knows what. Been a long time since I played with this stuff, so I have some catching up to do fur sure.

TV B Gone

So, I'm browsing my regular list of news sites today and I come across this one: Story

Apparently, some Italian researcher has found that people who have a TV in their bedroom have half as much sex as those that don't. If this isn't a good reason to stop watching TV so much, I don't know what is. I currently DO have a TV in my bedroom. Maybe its time to put it back in the computer room?

You might be expecting my own personal commentary on my experiences with this issue, but I'll defer that to another day :P

Return to Sender

Well, so far feedback on this blog is "your blog is really boring". Doh...I guess that is telling since this is supposed to be about the most interesting stuff that happens to me during the day...at least that I can write about in a public forum. Anyways...I know im boring and I thats OK :P

So, a few days after I came back from my week long trip home for the holidays, my wonderful mommy decides to mail me my Christmas gifts...the ones that I couldnt fit in my carry on bag for the flight. OK...I should get these packages a few days later, right? Well one arrives 3 days later...the other has not arrived yet...more than 2 weeks after it was sent. Apparently the Postal Service will just decide to keep your packages at their facility without telling you. They deliver my mail every day. Would it be so hard for them to give me a little piece of paper saying they have it? Why do they even have it? They delivered the other package...we paid them to deliver this package...what is their motivation to keep it in storage? Last I checked, storage space costs alot of money. Your tax dollars at work for me!
