The Office Special

I took my good old time getting up this morning, making it out of bed at around 11. I watched Battlestar Galactica after being up for a while. Dad, my brothers and I left the house some time after one to go to this today’s baseball game. We stopped at the Frostop for lunch first. The weather was quite pleasant this afternoon cool and sunny. Tulane beat UAB again this afternoon, but it wasn’t nearly the blowout as yesterday’s game was. Tulane held a 4-1 lead at the end of the eighth. UAB scored three runs late but it wasn’t enough and Tulane won 4-3. We came home after the game, grandma was there, she stopped by for a visit and dinner. Mom made barbeque shrimp, which was quite good, more buttery than usual. Later in the evening I watched The Office Special, a Christmas special which served as an end to the series. Although the David Brent character is often hard to watch, the latter half made up for that to make one of the best endings to a sitcom. Although I have some disdain for love stories and they are all too often contrived and cheesy, The Office had the best one I can ever remember seeing in either TV or film. I talked to Khadijah on the phone for a little while and went to bed at a half-decent hour.

Nearly five months into the new year and here my first post of 2012. Over the last several months I lost one job and started looking for another one. I started going to the gym and exercising for the first time in my life. I thought I might lack the self discipline to keep up [...]

September 03: Denver in September
Today was the first of a five day trip to Denver with my friend Bianca. Tropical Storm Lee was moving towards the Louisiana coast today, bringing substantial but intermittent rain since yesterday. I wasn’t really worried about flight delays but I did think street flooding could keep us from the airport. The ride to the [...]

August 26: Progress
Nearly two months have passed since my last post. Seeing a June date on my homepage after all this time has finally compelled me to throw another entry on here. I had planned a nice little summary of my month of jury duty at Orleans Criminal District Court but I couldn’t muster the enthusiasm. I [...]
