Wow. It's been 15 months since I posted. I wonder if my blog set up still works!

I'm off!
to Canandaigua, that is...time for a week by the lake with Roo and Katie and Gramama and the bunch. Lots of windsurfing, time on the SunFish, and swimming....plus reading, email, and sleeeep.
Of course, this last day before vacation at work was ridiculous, and thus I'm leaving a ton of crap for everyone to deal with tomorrow and this weekend. But at least it's crap that I _really_ couldn't do, considering I stayed an hour and a half after my shift ended trying. Hopefully they wont fire me, though :)

my friend Thanate over at Violivia asked a very interesting question: Why don't we ever write because we're happy? I mean, I do occasionally, i guess, and in fact i'm pretty happy right now, but i think as a culture we want to share our negative emotions more than our positive ones, which is kinda sad. So what's the lesson here? Next time someone asks you how you're doing, tell them "i'm super!". It's fun to see them respond.
OK, so that paragraph mostly exists just to link to violivia. so what?

Here's something I don't understand. Why do all my friends put up with me? I don't ask this in a self-pitying manner, or even really a self-depricating manner, I'm just confused. See, I'm a recluse. I'm absolutely terrible about keeping in touch with people, even my dear friends. Hell, I haven't spoken to Jessi, who I would still consider one of my favorite people ever, in something like two years. But what amazes me is that these people still want my company. Case in point, a couple days ago Lisa called me to invite me over for dinner. Have we spoken in the past two months? No. Have I gone to any of her concerts? No. Of course, I was delighted that she called, because I love seeing Lisa, but that's not the point - the point is that I don't understand what motivates people to maintain relationships with me when I'm so bad at reciprocating.
not that i mind, you understand
So yeah, had dinner with Lisa tonight and got to watch another episode of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. Which you should see if you haven't - it's a fun little show, and way better than any other "reality show" out there. Funny, light, non-abusive...good dirty fun. And on the way home, i think I figured out which tunnel it is where Martin gets stuffed in the trunk - you know, the one where the russian diplomat gets shot - in Sneakers. I think it's on Geary, where it goes under Masonic. Neat, huh?

no time for long chats tonight, i'm going to be in bed before 12 if it kills me. but i did set up a link to my new webcam, even though it makes it painfully obvious how much more light we need in the house. so enjoy, and forgive the lack of templating....the page will look better later

after watching Dogma again, I only have one thing to say. If you haven't seen it, it's worth watching, if only for the Mooby board room scene. Comic genius.
you forgot to say "God Bless You"

.....tired......
i found out that my pretty little tivo recorded the original two episodes of Knight Rider, so after I got back at 10PM and dicked around for a while, I had to watch those.....and then got sucked into playing glTron until 3AM. Woke up at 8:30 to go to fencing, and then at 9 Bay Street called because Guillermo was sick. So now I'm here at work for a nice 11 hour shift! whee!
not that i really have anything better to do, of course, what with E being at Benjamin's graduation, but I am a bit tired. Time to grab lunch.
