Blog

In my last post I put in a small plug for the new support for extensions in Google Chrome. I am pretty sure that I have mentioned that this is my browser of choice and has been for some time. Speed and simplicity are what drew me in and what keeps me here. Extensions only […]

Michael’s Jersey


Fiction

Michael was born first, that’s just how it happened. In the three and a half years before I was born I’m told Michael was treated as a prince. There are shoe boxes full of photos to confirm this. Photo albums are stuffed with Michael’s chubby, smiling face sitting above Mickey Mouse shirts and his bare […]

Textual vomit

The next three weeks are crunch time. I have one paper due before classes are done, two due after and two finals to complete. If I don’t show up in a few weeks, send someone after me. A lot of people really stress about finals. I never have. There has been two or three where […]

Put it on my card


Blog

I did something quite important this morning. I applied for graduation, I think.
