Today is August 16, 2010
Today was so busy, that I have nothing to say about it except that is was busy. Thankfully I’ve been sleeping better than I can remember sleeping. Those stupid little breathe right strips are going to change my life.

ON A BOAT
There is a lot going on right now. I can’t really provide details yet because I’m still a little unsure how things will work out. Hopefully in about a week or so, everything will be set in stone and I can relax a little.
In other news, I spent most of the day in Pittsburgh aboard one of the Gateway Clipper boats for some family-fun-something-or-other. Basically, everyone was given a...
Oh Those CSI Copycat Shows...
I’m watching Criminal Minds on CBS right now. I only half-watch this show occasionally. It seems like every episode is about some killer who finds his victims through social networking sites. I roll my eyes every time I see something like this.

The FUTURE
Jamie (girlfriend) and I are planning to sit down today and figure out what the next couple years of our life will look like. We both have big decisions to make about school, where we will live, and *gasp* the M-word. Wish me luck on this one, folks. I get terribly anxious about big changes.

Sweepstakes Junkie
I met this woman who has a hobby of entering sweepstakes and contests. She spends about two hours a day with it. Two hours may seem excessive, but she pointed out that it is more productive than sitting on Farmville.
This woman has won a ridiculous amount of stuff including, a trip to Hawaii, a H2 Hummer, cash, video game systems, and hats.
Not that I need another time waster in my day, but I...

Need Sleep
I’m usually a morning person, but the past couple of mornings have been rough. I have been groggy, stupid, and angry at pretty much the ENTIRE WORLD. I believe my sleep quality is in the toilet. I’m not sure what more I can do. I have a soothing sounds alarm clock, sleep aid pills, and one of those eye-masks, which is effective, but throws my masculinity into serious doubt.
A good...
Snowstorm
Winter is CHOKE SLAMMING us over here! I’ve been hearing rumors of 19 inches of snow on the ground by the time all is on the ground. I’ll snap some pics tomorrow of the oceans of icy white.
Until then, I will be trapped inside my apartment. I am already feeling the madness of cabin fever creeping in. red…rum…
Giving
My belated New Year’s resolution is to devote myself more to helping others. I think that exposing myself to others who are truly suffering is the only way to break myself out of my own tendencies to become depressed about my own life.

Ambient Music
I was browsing the iTunes radio station library looking for some relaxing music to help me chill out a little today. I stuck around the electronica stations and picked one that advertised relaxation in it’s description. I noticed that most of this electronic ambient music uses some seriously jacked up sound effects that make it sound like my house is haunted. I don’t care what iTunes...
IT'S SUMMERTIME!
No, not really, but it’s a happy thought.
A Father/Son Moment
I just got off the phone with my dad. We never have been able to communicate as well as I think we should, but today was good. I unloaded all my anxieties on him and he listened and gave me his advice. I have to admit, I’m feeling pretty good right now.

A Special Event
So I’m up, up, up early on a Saturday morning because I have a special event to run for my employer. Rumor has it that I am not permitted to disclose where this special event will be or what time it will take place. I have no idea why, but I’m going to follow the rules (real or not) because I need a paycheck.
The only thing I feel confident that I am permitted to say is that I will be...
