Talked to my mom. She stayed home from work today not feeling well, but decided to do some writing, so I gave her one of my old workshop exercises, then max1975, anisodragnfly and I critiqued it for her. Bleah… I need to do more writing. Went out and bought a birthday present for hurtsogood. I’ll…

that would be the high point of my day, right there. Not that anything else is bad… just nothing much going on. Went to dinner with Anu, beststephi, danitapgh and their parents (steph and dana’s, not anu’s) for beststephi’s birthday. Granted her birthday was over a week ago, but we went yesterday. It was cute,…

another day of not doing much of anything… played some more madden… that’s about it… getting ready to go to happy hour. hurtsogood wants me to go to fight club tonight, but I dunno, my stomach has been feeling pretty lousy lately. Jaguar came out today. Hope to have it soon. Got a phone call…

that’s what I accomplished today…. Did some reading… Played some Madden 2003… Made Fantasy Football Draft picks (shaun alexander, ahman green and rod smith)… Picked up my comics at Phantom… Watched Days of Our Lives… Played some more Madden… Now I’m sitting around and watching the massive electrical storm that has suddenly devoured Pittsburgh. I…

played 3 way tennis today with wooble and max1975. Won on out of 5 sets (to geoff and max each winning 2). I’m definitely getting better, but I definitely still sucl. Arm got really tired after 5 sets, and I quit… just like to point out that wooble and I went 5 sets to max1975’s…

telemarketers that don’t even try: Caller: Hello, Mr. Holly Mav: Speaking. Caller: Hello, this is Joe calling on behalf of AT&T Broadband Mav: uh huh Caller: The reason I’m calling, sir, is that our records show that you don’t currently have a cable modem or even cable television access. Mav: Yes, that’s correct. Caller: Sir,…

DAY 27 I am losing hope…

Played singles in the rain against wooble. Really thought I had him after I won the first set 6-2, but then lost the next set 7-5 and the final 2-6. Practiced serves for a bit before he showed up. Getting much better there. Of course it started raining right after we started playing, so the…

First of all Happy Birthday to anisodragnfly. beststephi and I have a birthday present to give you at some point. Feeeling very tired even though its already 11 o’clock. Once again, I realize that I am not cut out for this bum thing. Have not yet received problem $5 from telerama (assuming there is a…

Well, I thought the rafting trip yesterday was successful anyway. It was beautiful out, great weather, though since its been so dry, the water level (1’8) was a bit low. I ended up having Curt captain a boat with Jennie, Josh and b1uebutterf1y and I took beststephi, hurtsogood and James in my boat. Curt’s crew…

getting ready to head out to ohiopyle for a fun filled day of rafting… beststephi lives here and Jennie and Josh spent the night here last night, so we’re all already ready. Waiting for Mathilde, Curt, hurtsogood and James now. River level is only at 1’8 since its been so dry this season, but it…

Mailed my Dad his plates back from the truck. Went and did a little grocery shopping. Applied for a job being sysadmin of Telerama. Kind of interesting, they didn’t ask for my resume yet. In fact, I don’t think I’ve even given them my real name. just been signing everything as “Mav.” They don’t want…

jetgrrl01 posted this link which I thought was cool. Yesterday I went to the chiropractor again. They still want me to come back one more time in 4 weeks. Sigh…. I feel fine, and they say that they will release me after this next appointment. So I guess I will go one more time. At…

Finally! The truck is registered in my name. Again that was a lot of pain. I want a job at the DMV. I think its very low stress. It seems like it would be stressful what with everyone hating you and all… but really, those people seem very laid back. Don’t feel like dealing with…

Played tennis yet again with max1975, beststephi and wooble. Doing a bit better now, and in fact, max1975 and I won the first set 7-6. Completely fell apart the second set and lost 1-6. Third set we lost 4-6. I wanted to finish up the last two sets, but our mentally weak opponents felt that…
