This is how I learn family news now, apparently. Anyway, that’s my baby sister getting engaged. That means the balance has officially tipped and we’re about to about to reach the first time where a majority of my siblings are married. I’m very happy for her and I actually met this guy a few years [...]

I’ve mentioned before that my aunt has been battling terminal breast cancer. She passed away early this morning. Julie used to babysit me and my sisters when we were kids, lived with my family in the last years of her life, and was always part of my most important family memories. Julie didn’t have an [...]

12th of the month. 12 photos. It’s an easy concept. The hard part is remembering to do it. 1. Test driving my new Motorola Droid today. Technically, this photo was taken on the 11th, but I’m sure you’ll forgive me. 2. Today is an interview day, so I got to put on my pretty suit. [...]

Well, those of my family members who stayed awake until midnight brought in the new year with Rock Band on the Wii. Not the most exciting NYE in my life, but not the worst, either. So, my resolutions for twenty-ten: More unpredictability. I like to think that a guy who occasionally throws on a pair [...]

Yeah, I got some presents at Xmas, but can anything compare to a lap full of nephews? I also got a bunch of clothes and a few gift certificates. One of the gift certificates is to a movie theatre chain with lots of outlets in Utah, but the nearest theater to Manhattan is about 5 [...]

My family is in the news again. This time no one has committed felony tax evasion or fraud and it has nothing to do with me doing something gay. My aunt Julie decided to spend what will probably be her last Christmas spreading some joy to her friends. Last wish: Spread Christmas cheer By Lana [...]

My littlest baby brother turned 18 today. *sniff* Now he can be drafted and prosecuted as an adult. And there are lots of family birthdays I don’t mention on this blog (like yesterday, which was my sister Jacki’s birthday and my niece Alexia’s), I draw attention to Jared’s birthday not (just) because it’s a special [...]

The end of the semester is almost upon us, so there has been a rapid increase in end-of-the-year parties (before final exams consume our last waking seconds).
