I’m not really much of a fan of American Idol. Though, my roommate Ricky loves it. Each time I’ve seen the contestant Nathaniel Marshall, I’ve been subtly reminded of the Little Britain character Daffyd, the self-pronounced “Only Gay in the Village.” Nathaniel just seems to be trying way too hard. Piercings, odd clothing, ear-studs, headbands,…

Gibson SG
So, I picked my guitar last night after probably over a year. It was nice to realize that I still have very aspect of “Say it Ain\’t So” and “Everlong” memorized. I even took the time to learn a new song. Oh, I’ve missed my guitar. Perhaps more interesting was my distant, nostalgia about “Everlong.” …
Cloud Neon
My mother, predictably, seems to like the pictures I take with my iPhone. Apparently I set up her picasaweb / google email address to notify her when I upload new pictures automatically. So, now, every time I upload a new one, I get an email from her talking about them. I can\’t even remember what…
Andrew Bird
I attended the Andrew Bird show on Wednesday evening. It was a really great time. Their opener was a band called Lonely, Dear who was also awesome. I\’m not quite sure how to describe the opener. They are from Sweden and used strange noises in harmony to great effect. I couldn\’t tell much about the…
Skate or Die 2
So, someone purchased me a wonderful skateboard for my birthday last year. It was the first skateboard I\’ve had since Tony Hawk signed mine sometime during junior year (1997) of high school and I quit riding it… cause it had a Tony Hawk signature on it! Anyway, I had some good fun last summer cruising…
Night Running
I\’ve been running again. Its been about 4 or 5 years since I really ran with any regularity. I bought some new shoes, I downloaded some new music. It has been nice to get back into it again. Just tonight, I ran 4 miles without stopping. I\’ve only been running about 2 months and, for…
High School Reunion
So, I had my high school reunion last weekend. Yes, I realize that\’s almost a week ago. Summation: it was really fun! Somehow once you are out of all of that angst and hormonalness… Those people you once knew really are pretty great people. I know, for me at least, the reunion was much better…
Work isn\’t so bad…
So yeah, I had a slow month for billables. That made work seem quite a bit better than I felt a few weeks ago. Though, I\’m sure I\’ll regret it later. We had a nice shin-dig at a partners house a week or so ago. That was a good time. I find that I tend…
Nuts
I just wanted an excuse to use this picture. I\’ll probably write a real post at some point with it.
Sailing… take me away… or something
I had a nice sailing trip on Saturday. My small album may be found below. I love my iPhone. I feel like Long Beach is a cool area and I\’ve only been about twice since I\’ve lived here. Its high-time I went down there a bit more. I miss the aquarium and I\’ve never been…
