Fight Club paper

Monday, April 30th, 2007

I got a 100 on my paper that discussed Fight Club in terms of classical mythology. Here it is in all its glory if you’re interested.

Got to stop

Monday, April 30th, 2007

Week before last the kids got sick, and it wasn’t long before I was, too. Because it’s the law that if anyone within 300 yards of me is sick, I’ll catch it. By now, it’s getting pretty old.

What I need is a clone. Or one of those time stoppy things.

Tuesday, April 10th, 2007

Last Wednesday I caught the edge of the doormat wrong when I was on my way out of the house to go to class. I turned my ankle 90 degrees inwards and hit the ground like a sack of clay, whoomp-splat. And decided that the log I was resting my head on while [...]

Three things

Sunday, April 1st, 2007

1) I have scored not one, but two Bags of Crap in the last week. So has Hub.
2) I register for my last two semesters of college tomorrow.
3) Just a few hours after I posted my resume the other day, I got a job offer for something very big, cool, and exciting. It’s [...]
