I know the overwhelming number of 80,000 souls lost in Asia is hard to ignore or even comprehend, but we’ve also lost one friend of the justice system here in America.

I do want to finish this before the year ends. Here’s Saturday, 12/4.

The place was absolutely bustling, and when I asked for a glass of water, I was told that I had […]
I am wallowing in family time.
After a fairly low-key Christmas with my mom– featuring some nice gifts and the aforementioned steaks-and-taters– there were a couple of days of cleaning. I had to help her get the place into shape for the arrival of my sister and her new-by-marriage brood. They pulled in around […]
Every time I see the Diet Coke commercial with Adrian Brody, I feel a little bit ashamed, because I haven’t bought Gift of Gab’s solo album yet, and that song they use on the ad is really cool and worth my money.

I’m pretty tired. It’s 1:34 a.m.
I would like to write more, but I don’t think I have it in me right now.
In the meantime, please let it be known that Tor is a magnificent bastard– there is NO way I can find something for him that is anywhere near as cool as his gift […]
Dang. Should have asked this earlier. Anyone have any friends living on Charles Allen (the street, not the dude)? Considering a rental condo there. I have heard reports of flooding when it rains heavily, and I’m in last-minute research mode.

After a bit of Googling and comparison with K-in-the-next-cube, I’ve figured out […]
Yesterday, I went to check out a smallish apartment on the 2nd floor of an older house in Midtown. I liked it, and the street has the same name as my Mamaw, AND it’s near the intersection with Greenwood St., which an amazing coincidence of my origins. Street parking is the only option […]
