So, I'm over here, dedicating my time to my job and my life, taking some time away from the interwebs (lol wut?), and things just go haywire. For starters, it's my 21st birthday on Friday, and I'm working a ridiculously long and arduous shift that day. So, fun times for me there. Second, I am notifi...

If you are a friend of mine who is against abortion (pro-life), and didn't know my stance toward abortion, well, you're about to find a reason to reconsider being a friend of mine. I'll still see YOU as a friend, but you may not want to claim me as one after you finish reading this. ^_^ If you've go...

So, here I sit, in front of a piano. It's the first time in a long time, and it is one of the easiest methods of relaxation for me. Sitting at the piano, not so much just playing music, but writing it. Taking the emotion in my head and my heart, and using my hands to create a soundtrack to my life. ...

Why is it that, whenever things aren't looking all that great, EVERY SONG YOU HEAR not only relates perfectly to the situation at hand, but causes great pain and anguish because of how accurate it is? I love music and all (with a fiery passion!), but it's got a cruel sense of humor; I suppose that's...

Things just keep going wrong. It's the way of my life. Things go good for a few months, and then I have one really crappy month to kind of balance out the way of the world. So far, I'm going into week 2 of this crap month with my head held high. Now, I'm sure some of you are thinking "Oh, it's not a...

So, I finally got around to making myself a new look for my own blog, and it took FOREVER to find something I wanted to do. I had several different cincepts come up, but none that I could really pull of with the limitations of MindSay's design interface. I guess I'll have to save those for later use...

There are moments in my life where I fear that I have reached my peak level of geekdom. Moments where I get so excited, I literally jump up and down and squeal at the sheer joy of being able to be just that damn nerdy. Just a few minutes ago, I had one of those moments. Over this. Never did I think ...

I swear, if it costs me all of my digits and unmentionables, I must see this documentary, as should EVERYONE reading this entry, gamer or not. It's about an everyman's (Steve Wiebe) quest to achieve a new world record high-score on "Donkey Kong" and effectively toppling the old score of hot sauce mo...

The following is an excerpt of an actual conversation that took place on 8/13/2007 between myself and a financial aid "expert" at the college I am currently attempting to enroll in. The subject: my financial aid status in terms of dependance on parents. Me: "So, even though I've been struggling to b...

Hypoglycemia is when there is a low amount of glucose in the bloodstream. I don't know how many times I hear you hypoglycemics tell others that you, as hypoglycemics, are the "opposite" of diabetics. You seem to be under the impression that us diabetics can only have hyperglycemia, in which there is...
