After reading several liberal, and I use that word liberally, I have to comment on the use of Tea Baggers. For those of you who do not know what "tea bagging" refers to, its an act of sex where you dip your testicles into someone's mouth as they are laying down. With that said, it is being said in a contemptuous and derogatorily manner. Liberals, if they hold true to their own values would not

Stanford Folding@Home Group # 180470 Okay, so after a really good day, I was doing what I always do as a news junkie. I was reading all my twitter feeds from politicians, pundits, and my selected sources. I abruptly came across a story on how the U.S. Air Force purchased 1700 Play Station 3's to form a super computer. I immediately went to my Stanford University's Protein Folding application to

Finishing cabinets is much like making love, if and when you do it correctly, so I think. There's a different from having sex and making love.... but look in the previous posts for that one. So I have spent 30 hours finishing the cabinets for my current project. At first when they were installed, I was like, "what the f*&^ are these plywood boxes?

If I like the format for my political blog, I may move this blog on over to Wordpress, on a page that was the original location of this blog. Just a heads up.

Okay, so for weeks I could not type worth a crap. I am not talking about my crappy punctuation. Every character that I would type would not register or register really late. I ran multiple virus programs, ran the Microsoft virus diagnostics, and nothing? WTF, I thought to myself. Upon doing some research, which took me forever because I couldn't type, I stumbled upon the reason. Microsoft

A close friend, a dear confidant of mine who has been an unbiased advice giver, has kept me from flying off the handle over little things (for those that know me, too bad she wasn't on my shoulder durring some of my moments of stupidity), and wise mother has started a blog. A year ago today, she was sexually assulted by an on duty officer (pleaded guilty) responding to her house. She has started

Well, I have finally approached the typing surface and am finally writing a new blog. My need to blog in the past weeks left me and well, I have set up a routine in my new place, and somehow this is breaking my routine. I am a person who has set routines and stick to them but since moving to Houston, I feel the need to constantly be on my toes and switch things up. Instead of my Louisiana Mudd or

Wow, I do not even know where to begin with this blog. I finally have the internet up and running again but will barely use it becuase I am exhausted. Preparing to move, packing, driving 1700 miles, unpacking, and immediately starting several projects has left me with bags under my eyes. I just want to curl up in a ball and sleep for weeks!I have met with general contractors, painters, carpet

So as my temporary room is set up, I begin meetings and negotiations with the contractors for the landscaping and construction of my new apartment tomorrow. Although my original design was vetoed because it had a stand up shower (damn you people who only take baths) :-p , this was my second solution. I'm pretty damn excited. Few people actually get to design the apartment they will be living

I sit here, sipping my morning coffee (sludge), relaxed and becoming increasingly motivated for the day ahead. Yesterday after departing Lafayette, Louisiana, before the morning rush, I had a rather peaceful drive to Houston compared to the previous 1300 miles. I arrived to my temporary place, opened my bedroom door and to my surprise, balloons, streamers, and a banner that said, "Welcome to

I'm back in the old town I used to live in, in Louisiana. Wow I forgot how humid it is here! Either way, it'll be nice to see certain people I haven't seen in 9 months. I sat down and was talking with this guy where I am parked and I have to say, Cajuns are some great people. Anyways, time to have some fun after driving 1500 miles!

My last night in the only place that I consider that I "grew" up. Where I always enjoyed sitting outside during a good thunderstorm. My last night here and I get to enjoy my favorite thing since I was 15. Sitting outside during a nice storm. I'll have plenty of storms to hear and I will damn well make sure that sometime soon, I'll have my own place to sit outside for a good storm. Plenty of

Well, as I await the arrival of my friends from throughout the city, I patiently sit here and type. I always get anxious before long drives and I wish I had someone I know that has a way of calming me. Unfortunately, for this drive there will be no one to text to say I am nervous or to talk too while driving. FYI, it is illegal to be on a cell phone while driving in Pennsylvania so it's for the

It's amazing the things that you find when you are packing. You constantly are like, oh this is garbage (toss!) or damn, I could've used these a few months ago. The good thing about this all, is I can unload a lot of useless crap and organize the things that I want. Sweet.On a side note:I am officially up to 21 individual readers that stop by regularly.

Before I begin, I would graciously like to state that I am writing this on a brand new laptop. After the death of my previous computer, I am finally up and running once again. I'm not going to lie, I like Vista and all of its "gadgets."With a fun-filled fourth of July holiday over and the monoteny of life beginning once again for many, I prepare to embark on my 2000 mile Journey.

Going "down the shore" today. I think spending the next four days on the beach is a good way of spending the few remaining days that I have here in Philadelphia. By next weekend I will be down south in Houston. Far from everything that I know. Maybe I'll buy some of those orange floaties to put on my arms to look cool and sexy for the ladies this week. Perhaps a round float with sea horses on it

So apparently there is still a rumor going around that I am the proud parent of twin boys. I first heard of this from a messenger from Virginia then a year later from a stalker (yes, you were right) who I knew in highschool, on myspace. I found it humorous until today in the store I ran into my junior prom date and she said our kids should play togather. I was like, " uhhhhh, what?"So I will let

Part II: be truely happy. It involves many factors and differ in accordence to the individual. I have grown weary and tired of making these decision. I wish I can be in place, not having to think of staying in a strange land, or moving to another city. I have fantastic stories but I do not wish this "lost" lifesyle on anyone.

Risk, This Is No Boardgame: Sitting here in the airport I begin to contemplate. I have a week to decide on whether or not, I should move to Houston. One week. I've had to do this cost/benefit analysis plenty of times in my life. When I moved to a small town in Louisiana, when I chose to stay there, when I moved back to Philly, and many other instances.

As I await my departure from the heat of the south, I sit here contemplating life and its trials. Tubing the Comal was a great time and I was surrounded by hilarious people. The "speedo" was put to great use. I don't often enjoy a lot of attention unless I am under the right circumstances but as it was, I received the attention that I sought out for. I never had people chanting for me before and

A surprise visit to Houston with tubing and cigars is a great way to spend a weekend. After flying in unannounced with one person in the "know", talking a little business while smoking cigars, I am eagerly awaiting tomorrow. Floating down a river drinking beer and plenty of laughs is a great way to spend a saturday. I forgot how hot it is down south. I left and it was a chilly 60 degrees and I

It really blows not having a computer and using your roomates once a day. O well, it beats living on facebook. We all have our habitual sites that we visit everytime we are at the computer. It's kinda nice being free from it all. All I have to say is that the weekend of the year is in one day.

In a city proudly toting that it will soon be the greenest city in the country, I am troubled by a site I saw on the corner of Academy Road and Fairdale Road. Out of all the departments in the city, who would benefit the most about not polluting and protecting the rivers and streams, we see this.

Enjoying the first beautiful day in a while. Thank you weather. Mowed a lawn, ran some errands for my aunt, picked up meds for my friend's sick cat, and finally got home after being stuck in traffic for two hours coming home from my mom's house. Let the festivities begin :-) Lets see, blond or brunette? Ive been on a blond kick lately.... I might jump back into my old faithful, brunette mode. All

Birthday's to me are days to celebrate your existence. It's a day where even if I am annoyed or pissed off at someone, I'll put aside my grudges and wish the person a happy birthday usually through e-mail or text. Just because you are upset, doesn't mean you cannot honor their existence.I usually take off from work on my birthday because it's truly your day to celebrate, why throw a wrench in

While rummaging through my old bedroom for high school photos for a blog that I will later write, I came upon my old journal. I began to read and came across this piece about love that relates to my post earlier.July 10th, 2002What is love? Some explain it as caring deeply for someone. Others say it is a drug, which is very much the truth, for it releases chemicals into your brain. Maybe heroine

I once told a confidant of mine about the competition I feel to be as successful as my father and my brother. My father being wealthy, known around the world for his projects and my brother being highly motivated, successful, and determined. I felt the need to compete. Deep down at the time I was just venting my frustrations about being the lost person of my family.My brother was accepted and

Have you ever felt like you lost or are missing something really important? My friends say that I have been a different person since moving back. They say my renaissance happened in NY, but a renaissance doesn't occur over night. It took many generations of failed ideas that lead to the grandeur that was the renaissance.I don't know.

Alright everyone. I kept this blog a secret for sometime but hell, its time to open the doors. A lot of the posts earlier were depressing but with the sun actually out today (After 10 straight days of rain, I think we all are rejoicing), I present to you the complete randomness that encompasses my thoughts. Enjoy, and I promise you things won't be as dark. Lol. For all you Philly people,

I received an e-mail today from someone who constantly sends FWDs and jokes. We all have those people in our contacts. The kind that you just want to block, yet don't out of fear that you might actually get one of substance. Well, I opened one of the 9 that were forwarded to me and to my amazement, I discovered a fantastic artist. My first impulse was to immediately forward it to everyone on my

There is a God afterall! He hasn't been smiting us after all these years. He was just waiting for enough men denied sex from their spouses, boyfriends cruelly denied sex as a form of control (I can't complain), and pubescent boys to fill the demand. Demand for a Lingerie Football League. Thanks to a well informed co-ed, who happens to be trying out next week, I was notified of this league that

As I'm out on my deck, relaxing from a long morning of landscaping, the bird are chirping, and people are mowing their lawns. I learned today that women don't need fancy things or dinners, they want you to do a little work so they can sit and feel at peace. I know my hard, sweaty gift of a flower bed and newly landscaped yard will allow both my mom and aunt to smile and feel relaxed for months to

I don't know a damn thing about anything anymore. I've never felt more frustrated about everything in my life. Living with no work to be found, bored outta my mind, I absolutely hate it. I think I might just hop in my truck and just drive. Drive anywhere that comes to mind. Impulsive and spontaneous. Pure adventure. My mood the past few months has been that of Free Bird by Lynard Skynard. Who

A throw back to the song that was once popular, and overcoming, pun intended, the American taboo of talking about sex. Puritanical society still exists within America even though we all do it. With the Suffragettes winning their battle and the sexual revolution over, both men and women are allowed to enjoy sex. Why not? It feel good and is like a mind cleaning devise.

As I began my seven hour journey from upstate new york, the trees were plain and the air bland. Slowly over time the trees began budding and blossoming. The willows with their long yellow branches. An hour later, cherry trees began blooming. I had a Japanese song I learned while living in Hawaii going through my head. Sakura sakura sakura no-yama mo sato mo mi-watasu kagiri kasumi ka

That phrase sums me up pretty well. I had an ex, my first love, call me two days ago, she must've gotten my my number from her brother I spoke with last week. After a very nice catching up conversation that lasted over an hour, I hung up and began to ponder. I was asked by her, "what do you want?"

I won't speak for all men when it comes to this subject so I will generalize for them and speak for myself:I am a very stubborn person by nature. My grandfather who spoke very little English loved me because even as a toddler I was stubborn. My mom would tell me not to do something and she would smack me. I would immediately smack her back. This process would go on and on until one of us gave up.

After being laid off from a nice paying, center city job, I find myself in the same boat as I was four months ago. I may not have the emotional baggage attached to it this time, yet the frustration remains the same. I have the chance to go to upstate New York and work in a very nice paying job but I remain hesitant to do so. I realized through meeting someone in April that I want stability
