Deception
Like most people, I do not take well to being deceived.

I'm Becoming My Sister
When I'm facing a difficult issue, and have fallen victim to over-thinking something, I usually call my sister. Jennifer tends to be very direct and to-the-point about things. She doesn't mince …
Emmys
So, now they're wearing magnolias to show support for Hurricane Katrina victims. That's kinda cool - the magnolia is quite symbolic of the Deep South, and we were running out of ribbon colors anyway.

Set Up
I'm being set up on a quasi-blind date this weekend. Quasi in that there will be a (straight) third person for at least a portion of the evening, so it's not necessarily a date.
Person setting me up: He's a gr…

Yeah, Another One of Those Nights...
How did the road get to be so heavy?
I used to wear my troubles like a crown.
A bad flood's pounding on the levee,
And I'm gonna need some help to hold my ground.
Narcissist
Today, walking home from work, I caught my reflection in a storefront window, and had this completely unexpected thought:
"Wow. I would totally do me."
In other news, I just noticed that the soundtrack fro…

Should We Bother?
Please Note: This is quite probably going to be among the most controversial things I've ever written here. I wish to appeal to your better natures at this point, and remind you that we're both matur…
