Potpourri
I saw Derrick Johnson at the track the other day. He only ran one warmup lap, then did some NFL type stuff with this other beast. What a pussy. I did my 3-mile run in 23:40 today. That puts my pace at under 8 minutes… -
Stripped of Dignity
One thing I've never had a desire to visit, and I can pretty sincerely say I'll never visit, is a strip club. Okay, whenever "Bunny" the stripper handed us her card which doubled as a $1 off coupon back at IHOP when I w… -
Day In Review
The day started off well because we had a speaker in my Plant Design class. He was okay at first, but he saved all his best material for last. He decided to leave us with some parting blasts, under the guise of what no… -
White Mail
I've lived in this apartment for more than a year and a half now, but I'll still occasionally get mail for residents from decades ago. Like, who the f is Lindsey Whitely? She probably hasn't lived here since the Korea… -
Roses In Her Eyes
I busted out a new personal record with an 8 mile scamper today. I know people run marathons and ultra-marathons, but this is a big deal for me so BACK OFF! I've been doing some thinking lately. With the internet era,… -
Fighting Spirit
I almost had to brawl last night and knock some heads together. It happened during IM basketball. Since our team routinely gets owned (even though we won a game this year), I take my joy in playing through other parts… -
Like The Wolf
This constant hunger is so annoying. Ever since I pumped up the volume on my running workouts, my body is all like "Give me lots of food" so I'm like "Okay" and I'll eat pounds and pounds of sustenance. I stuff myself… -
5 Things
It's lazy and weak, but I'm going to answer the xanga "featured question". I feel bad about it, like a sixth grade e-mail survey, but it might be fun to talk about 5 things I do everyday. 1. Pushups. I start off every… -
A Dulled Sword
I was walking around and the OC theme song about California came on my iPod. I had included it in the video I made about me and Jeffrey's trip to California. For some reason, hearing it sent a shockwave of happiness… -
Sunday, Not So Bloody Sunday
It's weird. Running 3 miles now seems like a walk in the cake. We did 6 today which was fun. The weather was top-notch. I've been listening to Jim Rome Show podcasts lately instead of music. I guess it just depends… -
The Little Things
In lieu of making a third addendum to the previous post, I'll go ahead and make the second post of this day. So, I leave Houston around noon to come back to Austin. I spend the three or so hour drive reflecting on my l… -
Reunion
I'm currently hanging out with Joey, Phil, Greg, Steve, and Guidry, and I could not be happier. It's incredible we can have months hiatus and then not miss a beat. Rock Band might be the greatest party game ever cre… -
Travelling Swallowing Dramamine
Did you know that you can spell traveling either traveling or travelling? It's a fact, jack. So get used to it. I traveled around the Clark field track this morning. 22 times. At around a 46 minute clip. Averaging ou… -
The Write Stuff
I've got the urge to write that I get every so often, so this could be a long one. I got it last night, but I didn't pry myself out of bed to come and expound xanga-style, and it didn't fade as a night of sleep usually… -
Give Me Back My Son!
We are actually watching a movie in my history class now. This is the first time I can remember watching a movie in class since highschool. It is this piece of crap movie called 1918 that no one has ever seen or heard… -
Runnin' With The Devil
Nothing like a five mile run to get the day off on the right foot. And the left foot. Both feet in harmony really. I finally finished my online history class on Friday. 8 months in the making. Self pacing is a diffi… -
Birthiversary
23 years. That's a pretty long time. I don't know how many more I have in me, but so far so good, right? I've had my share of shit over the years. Less than most, but probably more than some. I've had times that see… -
Junk Mail
I check the mail today and oh boy I have a letter from TIME magazine. I was bored so I didn't insert it directly into the garbage receptacle as I would normally do. Good thing I didn't throw it away, because the deal w… -
This Is A Tricky Grey Area
I've done enough waxing loquaciously about the less-jovial portions of my life for a few months atleast. Making these video blogs is fun for me because I don't have to do as much editing as I had to for my other set o… -
Humans Being
The human psyche is a weird thing. So many strange intricacies. Like how you only want something when you can't have it. The whole "grass is always greener" idiom. And Stockholm Syndrome. What's up with that? I don'… -
Super Bowling
It was definitely an entertaining Super Bowl which I'm happy for. They say misery loves company, so I'm glad the Patriots lost. That's more of a devastating loss for Patriots fans than my Cowboys' loss was. And it's a… -
Duldrum
I've got this sinking feeling that my weekend night full of watching TV shows on DVD, doing pushups, doing the ab roller, and playing tetris, is but a mere preview to the rest of my weekends for the rest of my life. The… -
Down Mexico Way
The bad news is that school is becoming just a little smidgen harder than I anticipated. Nothing I haven't handled 10 fold in the past. The good news. I made this video. Here Arch discusses an ill-fated trip south of…
