Of all the professional sports around, I’ve always loved basketball the most. Perhaps it was because I was awkwardly tall as a child, who knows… and it’s always seemed like I have gone against-the-grain when cheering for teams… When I was a kid, the huge rivalry was between the Chicago Bulls (Michael Jordan) and Phoenix…
General
2 hours I’ll never get back
I very much enjoy watching movies. I watch all sorts, and try to keep a pretty open mind… every movie is someone’s artistic vision and what not. My list of horrible-do-not-waste-your-time-or-money films is quite short… but OMG it definitely has a new addition. I’ve been meaning to watch the movie Atonement for a while, and…
You can’t unlearn things
For a while I’d thought I turned into a genuine pessimist/realist/all around anti-optimist, a regrettable change from the person I used to be in High School. But in the past few days, I’ve come to realize that is not the case… I’m still genuinely seeing the best in people, and in situations, to the point…
Tulips and Frogs
I love fresh cut flowers, having them in a room always seems to bringten things up. AND I was lucky enough to find some fabulous tulips at 11pm the night before mothers day! (My usual shift gets me out of work at around 11, so technically I wasnt procrastinating…) Since I bought the flowers and…
Back on the Blog-Wagon
I know, I said this before, but this time I mean it… I am going to make a honest effort to start blogging regularly again. A fell off the radar there (again), but I really have had somewhat of a life since last Fall. Maybe it’s because I’m reaching the start of my 27th year……

I discoverd amazon widgets… they wont work on my space BOOOOO But they seem to work here yay! PS, sorry for no recent posts… but my MySpace is up to date :o/ Amazon.com Widgets
9/11 in DC, a first hand account
6 years later…. It seems like 2 lifetimes ago yet I can remember the events of the day as if it were yesterday. It is hard, if not impossible, to impress upon people who weren’t in NYC or DC that day what it was really like. The best I think I can do is to…
New Look
Yes I have had some sembelence of a life over the past month or so… I’m almost 2 months at the Marriott now and things seem to be going well. They just hired some new people too, so I am no longer at the bottom of the totem pole. One would think this would take…
Beat the System with Amazon Groceries
You know how whenever you want to buy something on Amazon, and it cost $19.99… but you see that little yellow truck, enticing you to spend $5 and get FREE SHIPPING… so you end up buying something that is like $15 which you don’t really need… but hey, FREE SHIPPING. Well, now there is the…
A Great Find: Titos Handmade Vodka
World’s smoothest vodka is from Texas… правда? http://www.titos-vodka.com/ I was I was watching the Food Network this morning, and Giada DeLaurentiis was touring/eating her way around Austin Texas. It was amusing to see her fascination with Chicken Fried Steak and real BBQ that doesn’t have sauce on it. She also enjoyed a “Batini” while watching…
