How To Get A Date Without Really Trying

January 19, 2005 ·

I texted American Lawyer on impulse last Saturday. He's supposed to be a milestone in my dating calendar since I hadn't met him through a chatroom, Friendster, blind date or my usual circle of acquaintances. He just sort of came up from behind me while I was in a computer store and gave me his calling card, like a casting agent would. It turned out we were almost neighbors. Me : I am so bored and you are such a Republican snob. Him: Hi! I just got back from L.A. I am bored too. An RX would be a live jazz session at Monk's Dream or dancing at Vmar? ...

Things that didn’t make it on the news

January 14, 2005 ·

Random thoughts on this new year

January 6, 2005 ·

Keep on beginning and failing. Each time you fail, start all over gain, and you will grow stronger until you have accomplished a purpose - not the one you began with perhaps, but one you'll be glad to remember. ~ Anne SullivanDid you feel the way I did about dreading the onset of the new year? Call me uninspired but I didn't seem to be excited about reporting for work last Monday. I thought the long vacation was bitin and for the first time in a long time I did not write any New Year's resolutions. Even so, I haven't been so lazy to list down what I would like to see ...
