  Looking Back Through 2008

  Tuesday, January 20, 2009 | Permalink | 1 Comment

  This might be nearly a month late, but wow, it’s 2009! Last January I posted my first year in review, and it’s nice to have something to go back and look at after a year’s time. This time around, I’m going to arrange my thoughts chronologically instead of by facets of life. Here are the [...]

  How Did They Know?

  Saturday, November 29, 2008 | Permalink | 2 Comments

  Yesterday, while bored and discussing movies with a friend, I thought to myself, “I really feel like re-watching Gattaca right now. Too bad it’s not one of Hulu’s (NBC/Fox) free streaming movies.”
  Then today I’m searching through Sling, and guess what: Hulu added Gattaca to their archives… yesterday.

  New Guitar!

  Tuesday, August 26, 2008 | Permalink | 2 Comments

  I have been playing guitar for ten years now… leading worship, giving lessons, performing, and even taking silver at a musical competition… *drumroll*… all without ever owning an acoustic guitar! (I have owned an electric Fender Strat all these years though; some of you will remember her name is Jasmine).
  But that’s right: I’ve been borrowing [...]

  Almost Bitten By A Black Widow Spider

  The first day of my paint-stripping project could have started out terribly. Since I was using highly toxic, industrial-strength chemicals, I had purchased some chemical gloves at Lowes. I used them last week for my trial run of paint stripping, then stored them away in the backyard.
  Well, this morning I picked up the gloves and [...]

  Pole Stripper

  Tuesday, August 19, 2008 | Permalink | 1 Comment

  My job for today is: pole stripper.
  And if that doesn’t sound right, let me clarify: I’m stripping paint off of wooden poles. As some of you may know, we’re in the middle of redecorating the interior of our house: repainting, reflooring, maybe adding track lighting to the hallway. Along our entryway, we have four turned [...]

  Wish List

  Monday, August 18, 2008 | Permalink | 2 Comments

  So, there are a few recent developments that have added or rekindled my desire for some big-ticket items. I’m struggling to put them into a reasonable order of purchase without acting rashly or outside of my means, since I’ve already made a few big purchases in the last 5 months: Photoshop CS3 and two trips [...]

  Google Wildcard Saves The Day

  So, I was composing an e-mail this morning but had one of those tip-of-the-tongue (tip-of-the-fingers?) moments. I couldn’t figure out the correct word meaning “scope of differences” for the following context:
  “There has been an increasing ______________ between the methodologies of the two systems…”
  I thought “discrepancy?” No…
  “Discongruency?” No, that’s not a word.
  “Disp.. disparagement?” Haha, not the [...]

  Back From London!

  Well folks, I’m back from my 2-week trip to London! It was a lot of fun! I’ll try to blog about my trip and post some pictures soon, but for the next couple days I have a lot of work and things to catch up on and take care of first. Aside from work, one [...]

  If I Blogged…

  Thursday, February 14, 2008 | Permalink | Add Comment

  If I wrote a post every time I thought about writing one, this journal would be as substantial as the last (my college one). Unfortunately, laziness usually takes over. Either that, or I convince myself that it wouldn’t be worth it to take the time to post anyways.  Whatever the reason, that’s why it’s so [...]
