 Has it been five years of blogging here already? Yes. Technically, I should be an old salt at it, but I did have an issue trying to write this entry. Should it be short and sweet, or should I make some long, drawn-out entry? Should I include pictures? Should it be a blogcast? I decided that I'd just name a few things that I've learned and gained over the past five years here: Filed under: Personal and Site News Comments: 5 Comments |

"I'm busy." I find myself saying that more than my own name these days. Long hours at work plus long hours at home with schoolwork divided by short hours of sleep and rest equal one blasé blogger. One blasé person, really — I've mustered brief periods of interest when discussing current events (Atlanta, this presidential primary season, etc.), but for the most part, I couldn't possibly care less about a lot of things. (Well, except for Check on Friday™.) So you can imagine that I am looking forward to my vacation with great excitement. Actually, it's ten days away from today! Granted, I'm not really going to a resort town — Rochester, NY — but it will be like a real, grown-up like vacation for me. For starters, it's the first vacation I've taken where I'm not staying in some shitty BnB or sleeping on someone's couch/futon/fuck pallete. I shelled out for a room in one of the city's finest hotels with a bottle of chilled champagne waiting for me upon check-in. I'll also be in town to catch the tail end of the Rochester International Jazz Festival, which will be a real treat; I'll get to listen to some of my favorite artists perform, including Soulive, Al Green, The Sliding Hammers, Beady Belle, the Soul Rebels Brass Band, Catherine Russell, and a whole slew of others. On top of that, I'll get to hang out with Twin and Triplet for the first time since their wedding. Twin even mentioned going to Toronto one of the days I'm there, but I don't know how long that'd take. Outside of that, it'll be five days and four nights of no work, no school, and no worries. And after the year I've had so far, it's long overdue. Start the countdown! Filed under: Personal Comments: None |

I'm about ready for 2008 to be over, and it hasn't even reached the halfway point. When y'all last left the train wreck that is Karsh in '08, Gaara and I just broke up. And at the beginning, things were peachy. We were still chatting on the phone every day and talking it up like a break-up never happened. In private though, I didn't take it so well. As a matter of fact, I didn't take it well at all. And perhaps the reason I didn't take it well was because the break-up was fairly amicable. I'm more used to the explosion which results from my usual splits. This one was highly unusual. And the adjustment for me was to withdraw from others and basically throw myself into work and school. And you know, for a while, it worked. I felt like I was on the mend and things would be cool if perhaps I would meet my ex-boyfriend-turned-acquaintance for a night out. Well…it didn't. Copious amounts of alcohol were imbibed, I ranted off some things I don't even remember while in my mixed drink induced stupor, and basically squashed the friendship. It was a bit of a rookie move, I admit. But I owned up to my shit, because I haven't gotten that smashed in a good long while. And frankly, for reasons I won't go into here, what's done has been done, and the time for arguments and shit is over. Case motherfuckin' closed. Of course, there's more shit going on besides Gaara, so a small part of me is glad that I have one less stressor so a brotha can get back to some semblance of normalcy. And many other things have happened which I haven't went into yet, like how work is going, Micro-Manager's going-away party, my impending graduation, and the search for fulfillment. That's right…Micro-Manager has left the building. I'll tell you about these things and more, plus your five-day forecast, after these messages.

For some reason, this fight scene has been playing in my head for the past two weeks. Coincidence? Technorati Tags: fight scene, kill bill, the bride, elle driver, trailer Filed under: Personal Comments: 2 Comments |

Che/Gaara and I broke up. No details, and nothing I choose to discuss right now. Let's just keep it moving. Filed under: Love in the Life and Personal Comments: Comments Off |
