  • Well, I predicted it. Following the demise of Harriet Miers' nomination to the Supreme Court, and the worst week of his life, Bush is pandering to his fanatical right-wing base, whose support he needs now more than ever…

  • To my horror, children in Halloween costumes were herded through West Hartford Center this morning like so many cattle. I was up early today, and had breakfast with Scooter (aka Jaybird) at Harry's. When we had finishe…

  • Such a week Cooper has had! Here's all the news:Work has been out of control, between my regular teaching and extra coachings for my opera workshop class. Rehearsals for La Sonnambula are going alright, but the chorus…

  • More short bits today: I spent a couple hours yesterday preliminarily filling out online law school applications. It lookls like I'm going to have to write only two essays, and then tailor them for each school to whi…

  • A few short bits today: I finally cured my computer of the virus I picked up downloading music the other day. It was quite the ordeal, involving deleting registry values, finding hidden files, safe mode, and every sc…

  • Last night, after my long work day, and after Steve's fabulous cocktail party (details below), I came home tired with a few glasses of wine in my system. Ready for bed, but wanting to masturbate to a little internet por…

  • Ugh, I've been doing battle with my computer for the last 2 days. Specifically against a worm that I picked up whilst downloading music with LimeWire. And, yes, I've learned my lesson, downloading is bad. Bad, bad, ba…

  • Ugh, I hate wasting time at work. I had a canceled lesson today, so I have an hour to kill before I teach again. Not working is no fun when you're stuck at work; I should be patrolling my couch in my underwear! On a b…

  • What happened to the news? The Today Show did a 5 minute segment today on ginormous diamonds and other jewels, complete with Katie and Ann trying on bracelets, necklaces and lavalieres. Speaking of Katie, she's being h…

  • Hot Athlete of the Day: Sidney Crosby, Center for the Pittsburgh Penguins That is all for the moment. EDIT: You've probably noticed that I've been posting a lot about athletes lately. For some reaso…

  • Today at the gym, your Cooper was hit on not once, but twice. This afternoon I went to workout by myself, waging the War on Shoulders, and I was indeed approached by two different parties. The first was an Asian guy wi…

  • I feel much better today. I'm certain it has something to do with the end of the rain here; a good night of sleep probably didn't hurt either. So far, I've spent most of the morning in bed with coffee watching HGTV and…

  • Oeuff, I'm all congested. I think I have the Avian Bird Flu. No, wait... I'd rather have the Evian Bird Flu, it's much more trendy, and only $1.29 a bottle. Anyway, I'm happy it's the weekend; I'm not working agai…

  • Last night, after my evening of comforts, Dimitrios surprised me by driving up after work and spending the night with me despite having class this morning. I was a very happy Cooper indeed. Today, abs day at the gym, a…

  • This evening is dedicated to nesting. It's been raining for what seems like a week now, and Cooper just needs some comfort. I made a tasty (nearly fat-free) chicken noodle soup and lots of tea. I'm currently enjoying …

  • Hmm, some bad news: Dimitrios not has to work tomorrow night, so my date with the boif is off. This is why it is so important that I win the lottery. People like us really shouldn't have to work after all. Grrr.

  • Wow, my shoulders still hurt! Clearly I've figured out the particular exercises I've been missing, thanks to Dave and his hot trainer in Tampa. If I stick with my War on Shoulders, I'll soon look like this: mwahah…

  • So, I've been really scattered lately, with lots of work and crazy scheduling. After being so focused on the LSAT, I can't really do anything more until I get my score back in about two more weeks. I've seen very littl…

  • It occurred to me today that last year I spent Columbus Day weekend in Puerto Rico with Dave and Shane and Mike Boyle. We had a fantastic time hitting the beaches and bars and other sites, and meeting the locals (I even…

  • In today's news: Boy-band hottie/cheezy celebutante Nick Lachey is splitting from his almost-genius wife, Jessica Simpson. Apparently, he's planning to move in with dreamy USC quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Matt …

  • So, someone has finally moved into the flat two floors below mine. Although I have been happy to lack neighbors, I was excited to see two muscular hotties unloading a truck this morning. But my titillation faltered whe…

  • Tonight's Haiku: While completely stoned, Cooper chose healthy fat-free snacks at Stop&Shop.

  • Harriet Miers may not be so bad after all. I'm encouraged that the conservatives are all in a tizzy about her. Bush makes such a fuss about not having a "litmus test" for judicial nominees, but maybe this time he'll wi…

  • I received this comment yesterday: Leviticus 20:13 And a man who lies with a male as one lies with a woman, both of them have done a detestable thing, dying they shall die; their blood shall be on them. My first tho…

  • Well, I survived the LSAT. It honestly was not too bad. I finished all the sections, none of which seemed abnormally difficult. The experimental (unscored) section was logic games, which is the type I'm best at, so th…
