The Single Guy vs. the Awkward Email
We can all agree that it's awkward when someone wants to set us up, right? Which is more awkward: to be set up with someone locally? or to be set up with someone on the other side of the state? About a week ago, a coworker began telling me all of the wonderful qualities possessed … Continue reading The Single Guy vs. the Awkward Email
The Dark Truth Behind Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
I absolutely love the John Hughes classic Ferris Bueller's Day Off. However, for years, I've questioned whether such a day could actually happen without the help of time travel. One of my bucket list items is to try and recreate the events of Ferris' ninth sick day. I just don't think it can be done. … Continue reading The Dark Truth Behind Ferris Bueller’s Day Off

No Shave November
I realize that title will be a little misleading. I did not participate in any sort of "No Shave November" event. I also did not participate in "Movember" to raise awareness for anything. So I apologize who just clicked on my blog thinking you were getting a riveting tale of raising money and/or awareness for … Continue reading No Shave November
Fortunate Son
On the way home the other night, I decided I was craving some Chinese takeout. I had actually been craving it for a few days. There's this place next to the Food Lion here in town that's pretty good. I found out about this place over the course of several months because of the many … Continue reading Fortunate Son
Day Twenty Five
My Day, In Great Detail I thought about writing this post earlier in the day today and writing the details about yesterday. But I was at work. And, for me, work involves confidential information that I really shouldn't openly share on a blog. So you're getting my day today. It was the beginning of Thanksgiving … Continue reading Day Twenty Five
Day Twenty Three
A YouTube Video So this is the day when I'm supposed to post a YouTube video. Sadly, I don't have any decent YouTube videos of myself (yet). So I'll post this one. Seems fitting, what with Thanksgiving being this week and all...
