Frostbitten Toes

As I sit here and thaw the two blocks of ice that used to be my feet, I can’t help but think of how great it would be to have a carpeted garage floor.

A Few Thoughts on Love

The girlfriend of a guy I used to date has been reading my blogs.  As much as I’d like to think that she finds my writing interesting and humorous, I’m 99% sure that isn’t the case.  Most girls aren’t wired that way.  With the exception of one, my exes’ girlfriends have never been fond of [...]

When is a Crush More Than a Crush?

Last night a friend and I had a lengthy discussion about crushes.  In particularly, we discussed just when a crush is more than a crush.  After much thought, I have decided to publish my conclusions.

I am both excited and nervous about the upcoming Memorial Day weekend. I’m so glad that someone *finally* won the American [...]

More Deep Thoughts

Why am I alone tonight? Why am I alone every night? Do soulmates exist? Do I have one? Yeah? Where is he? Why is it that the guys I’m interested in are never interested in me? Is anyone interested in me? I don’t want to go back to work. I have no clue what I’m [...]
