I’m very blah. Nothing’s wrong, I just don’t feel like I have much going on right now. That sounds depressing, but I’m not actually depressed. I’m just not excited about anything. I went out the ...

---

I was trying to find a survey because I really didn’t feel like writing, but as I was searching for something, I realized how awful the internet has become. I’m sure many of you remember how the ...

I return to work on Monday after 3 weeks of no classes and for some reason, I’m incredibly nervous about it. I feel like I haven’t prepared or something. I severely injured my foot on my birthday...

I’ve been really disconnected from music these last couple of months, but something funny happened. In West Hollywood, FUBAR closed. The Foobs (as we called it) was where I spent most of my time ...

Do you put ketchup on hot dogs? I haven’t had a hot dog in sooooo long… I really want a chili cheese dog (they have frankfurters here, but I wouldn’t really call them hot dogs, and no buns… they ...

---

I imagine my friends say that I should put myself out there and try new things, but that’s a lie. Nobody’s ever actually said that to me, it’s just something that appears in my head whenever I tu...

It was a few days before finals and I was reviewing the material with my youngest group of students, they’re between 11 and 12 years old. We were playing Hangman and they had gotten the first two...

I’m getting used to a lot of things I’ve never had to get used to. I have a big kitchen now (or relatively big considering how small my last one had been) but I have a much, much smaller refriger...

I finally finished moving. I have so much space in my new place that I don’t quite know what to do with it all. Every shelf is empty and I finally see that I have not collected anything in my lif...

I had to put on the brakes this week because something happened in a meeting, and when it was over, I saw what was happening. I ran out of medicine on Sunday, which means my brain is going to sta...

I thought I’d share my reactions to some interesting survey results. Maybe you have a reaction to share, too. 1) 1 in 10 people think HTML is a Sexually Transmitted Disease Well, at least 9 peopl...

I always sang The Judds music since I was a little kid. My mother listened to them obsessively and would sing their music. When I started singing, the first song I sang in public was “Grandpa” fo...

For some reason, as I was on my way to work this morning, I started thinking about one of my childhood friends. It didn’t end well. He and I were very similar. We even had the same name, Justin. ...

So I’m on week 2 of my new job and week 1 of being actually on campus at the University. I have to say, I’m a little confused by all of it. Each meeting just raises more questions than it answers...

Nothing has happened. I’m still on vacation. Jesus, I don’t know how Europeans do it. In America, we don’t have vacations… at least, we don’t have mandatory time off. When you first get a job, yo...

I’m back in Bangkok. It was fine and all of my stressing out was unnecessary. But so what? Learning that my fears were unfounded doesn’t exactly stop me from having those anxieties. You know, hea...

I’m trying to stay out of my head because I’ve been having panic attacks for days now. I’m stressing out so much about this trip to Thailand because I feel like I have no control over how it goes...
