So let me start by saying that my worst fear in driving there was having people be all, “Who are you?” and totally not remember me. Luckily, that didn’t happen. Instead, it was AWESOME. Every single person I ran into told me how fantastic I look, which was great for the ego, but then also [...]

Some Harry Potter tidbits from JK Rowling
This is a link to an interview that JK Rowling did at an event in New York City. There are some interesting answers to questions and clarifications on issues in the books. The most shocking? That Dumbledore is gay! From her perspective, he was in love with Grindelwald when he was younger (not sure whether [...]
Howdy from Steubenville
I made it safely yesterday. It only took me 7 hours, so it wasn’t too bad. I left at 10am Chicago time, and it was a pretty uneventful trip. Oh, except for when I thought my iPod was broken and for when I dropped my contact and couldn’t find it for about 10 minutes, so [...]
This weekend
Sorry I haven’t been blogging more - I’ve been working a whole lot, and by the time I’m done I just don’t feel like doing much else. I’m getting excited because I’m packing up the car and taking a road trip out to see Kotzie this weekend (Kotzie of countdown fame). And then I have [...]
TV news that made me go “squeeeeee!”

Creators of Chuck: please, please, please make this a long-term or recurring guest spot!
I’ll blog more later - promise. I had a 64 hour work week last week, and this week has been [...]
Prayer requests
My uncle and a friend of the family are both having surgery today - please pray for them and/or send them good thoughts!
On a side note, what happened to the Cubbies last night? I only stayed up through the 4th inning, so I missed the demise. Boo. Hopefully they’ll heat up tonight. It sure was [...]
Something else to piss off Sox fans
In another notch on the belt of the inequity of Chicago sports, Comcast has announced that they’re going to add TBS in high definition to their lineup in time for the Cubs first playoff game tonight. Heh! The Cubs can influence the evil cable conglomerate. I personally find it awesome, and hilarious. I’ve been waiting [...]
It *is* possible to change
I’m living proof! I have recently changed two things about myself which have been long-term habits. One is the way I play my A chord on the guitar. I’ve always done it with my fingers in the wrong place, but I was always too used to doing it that way to change it. It made [...]
