There's a new review up here, so read it. It was originally going to be more of a confessional, but taking time to write it muted that aspect somewhat.

In other news, today my allergies have been putting a serious dent in my effectiveness. I guess that's the price of an early spring.

No, I'm not dead. In fact, since my last entry I have done an update to a couple of pages that I didn't link to from here, including a CD review. More to come, since I've got some local bands' stuff to review.

Things here have been hectic and annoying at the same time. The excuse for not writing something here for the first week was a sizeable programming assignment that came due. Then, since Saturday, I've just been lazy.

The weather here is warming up, which is always a good thing. I think I tend to like the parts of the year when the weather changes, more than a particular season. If only we could get these cycles down to two weeks or so, I think that would match my attention span........

I'm trying to remember what exciting things I've done that merit mention here, but they're not coming to mind........

Work is killing me slowly this week, as I am horribly underutilized and this makes me less tolerant of stupidity and ignorance, since I have nothing else to do but be critical.

I'm hoping that I can get my crap together this weekend and get stuff done so that I can free up next weekend for a road trip. It remains to be seen how successful this will be.

Almost forgot this.........

Setting: Friday, Men's Bathroom, Dublin Pub, Dayton OH
Characters: 2 Twenty-something males
Overheard:
Male #1: Dude, you're not gonna get laid tonight, but I'm a team player, so I'm not gonna get laid either.
Male #2: (silence)

Ha!

Okay, so I picked this up at work last week, because I thought it was funny in a very painful way.

I've been lazy, so my review of the Kit Kat Club, Radiolaria, Ditchweed show from last week is still not done. Here's the short version though: nothing special.

In other news, I figured out how to spend the money my parents gave me for my birthday. Yup, I'm going to use it to pay for the speeding ticket I got today! Hooray! I'm kind of bitter right now, as I should fight it, but it's just too much of a hassle. Damn revenue hunting.

What did Sean do yesterday for his birthday?

1. Woke up, said "Oh my god I'm old"
2. Went to work and whiled away a boring morning and afternoon
3. Went to class
4. Met project partner in lab to discuss project
5. Ordered pizza and picked it up on the way home
6. Talked to my friend Diana, who called
7. Talked to my mom and dad
8. Went to bed

Do I know how to have a birthday or what?

So, I'm trying not to be really angry today, but it just hasn't worked. So, I at least tried to channel it into useful work, but that has only been partially successful. So now I'm at a crossroads--well, I was at a crossroads--now I'm just pissed that my net connection is so slow tonight. Ah, to hell with this.

It's probably not much interest to you if you don't live here, but my ohio music scene links page is up.

Bought a brand spankin' new scanner, so I thought I'd test it out tonight. I'm the one on the left.
