I’m making this determination from a sample size of just one but, from my experience in the SeaTac this weekend, the Thursday to Saturday vacation is the best way to un-motherfucking-wind.
Doing my best Naomi impression, I told a few people I was coming and then I jetted up to Seattle on the $150 flight. [...]

SeaTac Trip
August 27, 2006Nights Transformed into Legends
August 22, 2006Alright, let me say this and, I know most of you would agree with me…the times when you go out and something special or different or enjoyable occurs are the best times, right? I’m talking when you meet new people or learn something about someone you already met or engage in a new experience. For [...]
Week in Review
August 18, 2006Being off of work is incredible. It’s 1:30am and I’ve got my rich, chocolate Ovaltine and a bagel with strawberry jam while listening to “Fa Fa” by Guster. I still need to go on a real vacation before school starts, but this is wonderful. It shows that it’s possible to have moments [...]
The Weakest Link
August 17, 2006Okay, now you tell me. Look at the four faces on this poster and tell me which one doesn’t belong. Josh Hartnett?? I mean, what the fuck?? And he’s the headliner, too! It’s shocking to me that this dude makes millions of dollars for his work. I’ve seen movies [...]
Weekend Parties
August 14, 2006Going to a party alone is often a risky little business because there’s no safety net of friends to fall back on when conversation or dancing dries up. Despite reaching out to several people, I couldn’t get anyone to come party with me this weekend (but that’s a topic for another time) so I [...]
Post-Party Driving
August 13, 2006My problem with driving home after a late night of partying/drinking isn’t related to judgment or sobriety so much as it is to fatigue. Last weekend, I drove home from Dublin and I had to yell, or pinch myself or bite myself every few seconds to keep from nodding off at 80 mph. Driving with [...]
Repeat the Message
August 10, 2006I talked to my Mom today (heh…as if I don’t talk to her every day) and she was talking about the war on terror. It was something like: “Okay, so we’re gonna kill all these soldiers…or, terrorists, I mean. We’re gonna destroy all of Al Qaeda as if they’ll never be able to reorganize. And [...]
I Said I’m Enamored With Self
August 9, 2006Nothing special. Just browsing through my computer’s photos and found this old one. It’s my favorite photo of myself and it’s with my cousin’s kid in Costa Rica.
Mouth Community
August 9, 2006You know how people take pride in dubious accomplishments? For example, “smart” people like to brag about how they didn’t study for a test or how they skipped class. One that I’ve been guilty of letting people know about is the time I got an “A” on my Wuthering Heights paper despite not [...]
Talladega Nights
August 9, 2006The coolest thing about Talladega Nights is that all of the drivers were wearing Pumas!!! Do I have to start watching NASCAR? Is that steeped in reality?? Since every review I’ve read compares it to those other movies with those actors (Luke and Owen Wilson, Vaughn, Stiller, Carell, Ferrell) I’ll put the [...]
