I volunteered to play volleyball last week and was hoping that my newly trimmer self would be a better player. I was way wrong. At first I had trouble locating my coworkers at the park. I drove around it three times and was just about to give up when I thought I spotted five people […]

Do me a favor. If you run a website or if you have a blog, can you find a spot to copy and paste the following link somewhere? The Real World Philadelphia: Season 15 <a href="http://TheRealWorldPhilly.com" target="_blank">The Real World Philadelphia: Season 15</a> I just put up this site and I’d like to get some weight […]

I had a really tough workout last night on my back and chest. The Super Genius feels like he was hanging from a train trestle. I’d previous done some cardio on Tuesday and skipped out Wednesday. I’ve *got* to wear my ankle and knee braces if I plan to do any kind of running. The […]

I pull up to the drive-thru at Wendy’s and the dude on the speaker hollers, ‘WENDY’S! CAN I HELP YOU!” and I’m all, ”Just a moment.” 10 seconds later he comes on again, ”CAN I TAKE YOUR ORDER, PLEASE!” Perturbed, I say, ”Dude, is there some kind of time limit?” His unexpected response: ”THAT’S RIGHT!” […]

Kill Bill Volume 2 was so amazing! You *MUST* see it. Tarantino is awesome. I’m duly impressed. Once Jason and I left we were all, ”Woah, dude that was so good!” I’m telling ya. That’s good movie time for you and your friends. Go! I’m typing this on my roommate’s Mac and I’d forgotten that […]

On Thursday I tried filling out my taxes online from home. Comcast cable sucks the big one, so ended up having to finish things at work. I’m all for a federal sales tax on everything. Income taxes seem so harsh. Either way, that’s all over with. Later that day I had my first session with […]

Went to the gym for the first time last night. It was pouring down rain and a strange humidity had filled the room, making the rubber flooring slippery. I wondered if it was always like this but a lot of people kept giving the old ”WHAT THE HELL IS UP WITH THE FLOOR?” response. After […]

I’m joking around there with the title of this blog entry. I’ve been anxiously awaiting Wil Wheaton’s next book ”Just a Geek” to come out. I assume it will be autobiographical and contain lots of cool little Star Trek anecdotes and that I’ll read it wishing I was really the actor who played Wesley Crusher […]

I wanted to buy some stamps. I walked up to the stamp machine they have here at the cafeteria. A message cryptically flashed, ”CAN ONLY MAKE CHANGE UP TO $0.85” — I thought, okay. I wanted a book of stamps that cost $7.40. I put in 40 cents. I then put in a dollar. The […]
