compulsive compartmentalization

Captured thoughts…on exhibit in the zoo that is the blog-o-sphere.

There is no such thing on earth as an uninteresting subject; the only thing that can exist is an uninterested person. - G.K. Chesterton

rambling man

Monday, January 23rd, 2006

The day starts at 4 am with a stabbing pain in my right calf. I’m sitting up and grabbing my leg before I’m fully awake. After what seems hours my muscle relaxes and my head falls back to the pillow. “That sucked.” I mutter to my wife, who instinctively woke when [...]

morning musings

Friday, January 20th, 2006

There was a chill in the morning air. Not enough to make you need a coat, but just enough you let you know that winter still had a handle on things. I walked through the sunlight, styrofoam coffee cup in hand, suddenly feeling that I was living in the past. It was [...]

Return of teh Jedi

Tuesday, January 3rd, 2006

I don’t feel like I’ve had any time off at all.
I’m back at work, the kids are rude and lazy as ever, and I’m already worn out. Want to know what teaching is like? It’s like going to a job where there are 60 to 80 people whose sole purpose is [...]

Happy New Year!

Sunday, January 1st, 2006

Another year, another post. Resolutions? I’m glad you asked. No, I don’t really have any. Other than just keep doing more of the things I’ve been doing. More reading, exercising, drawing, blogging, etc. Well, perhaps I take that back. My resolution is to waste less time. I [...]
