  • A Little Busy…

    You’ve probably noticed that I haven’t been around much lately. For good reason! I am busier than I think I have ever been in my life before, and I’m grappling with a lot of change at the same time. All this adjustment I have to go through is very draining. At the end of the…

  • I braved the crowds on Boxing Day

    So Christmas for me was all right this year. Not too many ups or downs like there have been in the past year (aside from the total downers at work). I was pleasantly surprised a couple of times since this year I wasn’t really expecting anything much from family. We had all decided it would…

  • A Christmas Conundrum

    I need a little input on something to see if I’m just being totally selfish and crass, or if my concerns are valid. So I spent a bunch of time and money making those giftbaskets for my friends. One of them was for this gal that I spent a lot of time with over the…

  • Another one bites the dust

    And by bites the dust, I mean another gal I know got married. There’s been a huge spate of marriages and random child-birthings I’ve heard or seen about via Facebook. None are people I was particularly close to but ones I knew well enough to have on FB on the first place. On one hand…

  • How I made a friend when I thought I couldn’t

    Yesterday, FB wrote a compelling post about how difficult it is to find and make new, quality friends once you’re out of school. Krystal responded, and now it’s my turn. It really is hard to make friends in the adult world. Sure, you’ve got your work buddies and that cool guy/gal that you chum with…

  • How Do You Stay Out of Trouble?

    A few of you have caught my tweets about some friends of mine that are in a sort of perverted love triangle thing. I know it’s not really my business, but at least two of those involved are my good friends, who also happen to be a common-law couple. Naturally, the wife is unloading on…

  • Concert Recap

    Well, the concert is over. As a concert, it was good. As a night, it took a turn for the worse. I thought I did everything right… the night was going ok, BB and I were making smalltalk in between songs about random things. Aside from a few awkward silences it seemed like he was…

  • Ahh! Concert is tomorrow!

    That’s right, folks! Tomorrow (Wednesday) is the big night in which I go to my concert with Band Boy! Back story here, here and here. You guys have given me some seriously great advice, it’s like my own little group of cheerleaders! So I’m calling on you again… how should I handle the situation tomorrow…

  • Band Boy: The Post-Report

    I’m back, and everything went well, I guess. I did my best to keep my expectations under control and tried to have a good time. Actually I had a really good time, considering it was the first time I met or spoke to Band Boy (BB) outside of an email. OMG. He is WAY hotter…

  • Band Boy

    So, tonight is the big night. But I guess I shouldn’t put that much importance on it, right? Previously I wrote about how I have an extra concert ticket and found a guy off of Craigslist who I might sell it to. He would be sitting with me so I wanted someone that wasn’t a…
