with a little determination, and a clipboard, you...

Back in the old days, about a decade ago, I attended a certain southern military college. While I was there, I was fairly consistently in trouble for one thing or another - nothing too serious, but just enough that I was regularly restricted to campus. Unlike most cadets, this never really bothered me, and a few of my friends and I were content to stay on campus and make mischief of one sort or...

dammit, client! don't you get it?

Look, I realize that we’re all here at the office, but it’s the week of Christmas. No one is actually doing any work. It’s all a show! Everyone is just sitting at their desk, screwing around on the internet in an attempt to look busy. No one is doing actual work! Stop emailing me files with messages that say, “need PDF proofs back asap!”

i'm trying to grow a beard. again.

I’ve never been successful. It’s not that I’m unable to grow one. In fact, it grows rather quickly, for the first three weeks at least. But then, from the third week until about the sixth week, it starts to look the same every day. By then the itchiness factor has taken over and I shave it off. I need to make it two months this time. Today is day ten.

microwave anomalies

On Thursday nights, after community band rehearsal, several of the band members, along with my wife and I, always go to the same bar for post-rehearsal analysis and dinner. Having tried most of the items on the menu in years past, I almost always get a club sandwich. It’s a good club, and the fries are also excellent. Usually I eat the whole thing at the bar, but sometimes I decide to save...

life is like a pork chop.

Sometimes you have to forget politeness and utensils. Just grab it with your bare hands and gnaw on it.

imagine my disappointment.

Every day since Monday, I have gotten out of bed thinking it was one day later than it actually has been, only to realize the truth about a minute later. The sting was obviously greatest this morning, when I rolled out of bed thinking it was Friday.

problem solved

therodeoprincess: Well, not really, but I’m not spending any more time dwelling on work tonight and neither should you. To quote Michael Jackson, “Tonight, you gotta leave that 9 to 5 up on the shelf, and just enjoy yourself.” (If you don’t know Off The Wall, then I certainly can’t fucking help you.) I’m going out honky tonkin’ with Doc Suzy and some other folks and guess what, there will be...
