Fun quiz

http://mensa-test.com/ I have 26 so far, but I am DETERMINDED! (I had a hint on #31.  Otherwise, I probably would have never gotten it.  I don’t think you will either, so I’ll give you the same hint I had.   Think: Commonwealth sports.)

Bad day whining….

OrangemanGary (8:17:11 PM): i’m gonna be here for prob another 3 hours.  :( OrangemanGary (8:24:53 PM): i’m going to whine…bhutto was a bigger deal than i thought she would be.  I brought my camera, but I didn’t get a chance to get a picture with her (apparently if I asked my boss she could have [...]

School’s out for the spring?

Tonight would have been my first night of English teaching for the Spring semester, had I signed up.  But I didn’t, because my boss wasn’t too keen on me skipping out an hour early once a week.  Ironically, now that our show is further along, it’s probably easier for me to skip out early.  I’m [...]

Prometheus tree

Sometimes, when I get bored, I’ll spend an hour or two researching weird things online.  Tonight, for some reason, I started randomly searching for old trees. I found this.  Apparently some PhD student cut down the world’s oldest known living tree back in the 60s.  That’s just messed up.

Good morning!

For the second time in two weeks, I have no hot water in my apartment. Apparently the management believes that the morning is the best time to shut off the water, because who uses the shower before work?  Last time, they told us in advance that it might go off.  This time, they didn’t bother. [...]

Standoff ends in arrest

I went to middle school (or was it high school) with this guy!!! http://www.courierpostonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060110/NEWS01/601100359/1006 For some reason, when I’m generally well-rested but I end up getting very little sleep for just one night, I end up feeling extremely energetic the next day.  This doesn’t happen all the time, but it happens frequently enough.  Despite only [...]

Even when you’re low on ideas,

you can still use an online journal to whine.  I am going to take full advantage of that. It’s 8:40am, and I am at work. At 1:20am last night, I went to floor. At 2am, someone sent me a text message saying they needed me to open the equipment room (which we call the “War Room”) here at [...]

I wish I had more to write about,

but there’s not much going on. I’m kinda tired right now, but that’s about it.  I need to do some laundry and go to the post office, but that does not a good blog entry make. I used to have more to talk about.  I wonder if that’s because I have lost some enthusiasm by [...]

Belated Year in Review

1. What did you do in 2005 that you’d never done before? Been in a relationship. 2. Did you keep your new year’s resolutions, and will you make more for next year? I didn’t really make any.  At one point I started going to the gym again, but that fell through. 3. Did anyone close [...]
