Frugal
I’m staying here alone in a hotel on a business trip, and I’ve finally had one more of those life experiences that I’d never tried before. Don’t worry, it’s nothing gross or anything; I just ordered room service. Holy crap, that shit’s expensive! It’s one thing when you’re stuck in Glendale and facing the prospect…
A Brief Layover
Disney magic has transformed a week-long business trip into a two-week-long business trip, since I’ve got to leave Monday morning for a week down in LA. On the plus side, I’m… well, saving on groceries, I guess. Of course, it’s hard to feel too sorry for myself when last week ended up being as nice…
Expedition Everest
As it turns out, the rumors of the total lack of internet access were greatly exaggerated. When I was ironing a shirt this morning, I found an ethernet cable hiding in the back of the closet, and I grabbed it like a kid opening a Christmas present. It doesn’t make that much of a difference,…
Semi-caffeinated
It’s been a really nice day in San Francisco, and I’ve spent the bulk of it inside trying to get my stuff in order and dreading having to spend all next week at Disney World. Is this what being an adult is like? If it is, I want no part of it. The worst part…

The Week in Videogames
Videogames are cool, because they’re fun to play, and they’re fun to write about on the internet! Everybody knows that the best kind of videogames is the kind where you learn things, and that’s awesome because that’s the best kind of internet weblog post, too! For instance, I learned from Cory that Suikoden V is…
V4 Vendetta
Today we went to Haight Street for lunch, and no matter how many times I go up there I’m still struck with how ridiculous the whole place is. It’s as if all the hypocrisy of San Francisco is laid bare — the “summer of love,” rampant commercialism, poverty, empty promises of “counter-culture,” the head shops…
lol freaky commercials wtf ^__^
Speaking of Japanese Commercials: Right after I watched that one, I got a phone call from some girl whispering “seven days.” And I would’ve been a lot happier if Happiness of the Katakuris was more like this:
