New Toys and the start of Sundance

Wednesday, January 19th, 2005

So Michael, my publisher, got a new toy this week – a new digital camera. I felt jealous and had to get my own new toy, so I got a Panasonic digital recorder for doing interviews. It’s awesome! I can record over 8 hours of conversation, transfer the files to computer and archive them. It [...]

Frustrating House Stuff

Monday, January 17th, 2005

My parents have been delayed again in buying the new house. They put the offer in back at the end of November, so everybody is understandably irritated about this. Apparently, the first loan they applied for was the wrong kind. The mortgage company should have known this, but they were dragging their feet about it [...]

I went to see Elektra last night. I did enjoy it. I think that the unfortunate thing about this film is that most people still think of it as a “sequel” to Daredevil. It’s not. There are worlds of difference between the movies. Different purpose, different themes… even the superhero rules seem different. In DD, [...]

LJ Day Off

Sunday, January 16th, 2005

What I did on my LJ Vacation by Tyreseus (age 27) So since I last posted, I’ve been a busy, busy boy. Even setting up an emergency greatjournal account didnt distract me from finally doing a number of other things. I finally watched The Village and King Arthur yesterday evening (and staying spoiler-free on those [...]

Last night’s ER

Friday, January 14th, 2005

Maybe it’s because I’m relatively new to watching ER, but I thought last night’s episode was rather good. A bit predictable? Maybe, but still better done than I was expecting. See, I only started watching about two seasons ago. I don’t care if we’ve seen this type of story before with George Clooney or Anthony [...]

I laughed so hard I might have peed a little

Thursday, January 13th, 2005

I had to share this because it really made my day. In Utah, one of the most prominent conservative voices is a woman named Gayle Ruzicka. She is the head of the Eagle Forum and has been called the “grande dame of the right-wing.” We’re currently running a reader poll for the best and worst [...]

I’ve had it with angry lesbians!

Wednesday, January 12th, 2005

I love lesbians. Really I do. When I first came out of the closet, all my gay friends were women. From these wonderful human beings I learned the lyrics to many Indigo Girls songs, basic chords on an accustic guitar, which type of beer goes with car maintenance, how to point out the obvious sexism [...]

That sexy thang

Monday, January 10th, 2005

So, I’ve lost 10 pounds since New Year’s! I attribute all my success to the following four factors: 1. In no way shape or form did I “resolve” to lose weight – since we all know that making weight-loss resolutions is the sure-fire way to gain flab. 2. Christmas candy – once so abundant – [...]

Nyquil Dreams

Sunday, January 9th, 2005

I’b cubbid dowd wid sodthin. In four years of living in Vegas I was sick maybe twice a year. This is the fourth time I’ve been under the weather since moving home at the beginning of October. I’m willing to lay some of the blame on my body adjusting to the change in weather/altitude. But [...]
