Status Updates Galore
Are you familiar with Ping.fm? It’s a service that allows you to update all your social networks with one click of a mouse. I thought this was a brilliant idea when I signed up a year ago, but it’s becoming more evident each day that my “lifestream” is molded differently for every social network I [...]
So what have I been up to?
Let’s see… – Working my ass off. I’m officially a workaholic in training. - Threw an insanely large Christmas party with the roommates. We rented heat lamps, chairs, tables, the works. Even had a bartender so we wouldn’t have to serve drinks. Met several new people and basically hung out with some friends.

Taco Beds, TV and Bad Sushi
I enjoyed the premiere of The Shield’s final season this week. It was a slow start considering the pacing of the previous episode, but it laid some brilliant groundwork for future story lines. I’m thinking Shane lives, Ronnie goes off the deep end, Vic and Acevada take down the Mexican cartel in a very bloody [...]
