Did I miss something?
Some days, it’s like the universe is trying to tell you that maybe, just maybe, today might be a good day for you to turn around and crawl back into bed.

Noir Series
Matt recently got some of his work posted online. Go visit and take a peek at some of his photos. The more I view them, the richer they seem to get. I’m pretty taken by how much backstory is available in some of these pictures and, in turn, how much backstory I make up and…
Congratulations, Liz!
I got a call from Liz and Steph this evening, and an invite to help them celebrate Liz’s completion of her GRE exam. As it turns out, she totally kicked ass and way surpassed the minimum score she needs for her MLS application. We met up at the Dodger, and were joined later by Erin…
Sometimes, the city offers good advice
I guess this depends on whether you care to see it one way or another. I liken it to the various messages I’ve come across written in the snow, written on a fence, or written on a truck.

Happy Birthday, Kristen!
Whew! A lot of them today! Today is Kristen’s birthday, and a bunch of folks gathered in Humboldt Park to help celebrate with a combo potluck picnic and kickball extravaganza. I didn’t know all that many folks there, and had a heck of a time trying to learn names (I’m so terrible with remembering names…
Happy Birthday, Stacey!
My sister’s birthday is today, and we got to catch up a bit on the phone, after work. Hopefully, she’s got a chance to just relax some with Shane and Jasmine. Happy b-day, sis!

Helloooooooo Google!
As you may have noticed, I’ve added a new right module that should allow you to search the site. Now, you can utilize the power of Google to search through all the silly crap that I’ve been uploading to my site lo these past three years. Have at it! I took the code they made…
Cooking Phase?
On the way home, I stopped off at the grocery store to pick up a few supplies. I’m making a quick and easy pasta salad from a recipe I found online, to bring to Kristen’s kickball/picnic/birthday party tomorrow. I gotta say, I got into the whole food prep thing this evening. I’m on a roll…
30 Pounds of Coins
In what has apparently become a tradition here at the workplace, Justin brought in a ton of change and we all tried to guess how much he had. For those of you playing at home, here’s what you should know: the coins were brought in two pillowcases. Also, there were no quarters in either of…
Good Luck Liz!
My friend Liz has been studying up and is taking the GRE this week (she’s looking to pursue a degree in Library Science). Send some good thoughts her way. Because librarians rock. And Liz rocks.—–——–
Zzzzzz
Sweet Jebus. I was in bed until 5 PM. Went back to sleep around 10 PM. I’ll update with the pics from yesterday soon. Well, as soon as I’m awake for more than 5 hours at a stretch. Sheesh.
Backyard Cookout
Last week, Justin and I hung out at Pontiac for a few after-work drinks and decided we wanted to throw a party this weekend. Fast-forward through a day of errands and shopping, and this is where we’re at – Justin’s place, supplies coming out of our ears, and a whole lot of prep work to…
