Hey guys, get this. I’ve had two+ cups of coffee today. That’s some sort of record for me. I should be wired for a while now. I promised to make excuses, and here they are. I didn’t write yesterday because I continued with my deep cleaning of my apartment, I started work on my new […]
Today I learned that my running route is roughly 6.7 miles. How, you ask? I took out my old analog map and measured street by street. Then I added each street length together–I took the measurements in centimeters because I’ll be damned if I can find a standard ruler here–to get a total of 63.5cm. […]

Maybe when you did use Pandora you were frustrated with advertisements or that it would stop playing if you left your computer idle […]
Yesterday was Victory Day here in Ukraine. For a while, I thought it meant it was the day WWII ended (or as they say here, the Great Patriotic War) but a student explained it as something slightly different recently and now I’m confused. The Great Patriotic War was explained as a portion of the war […]
Yesterday was an interesting day, as far as my website went. I had two different “Oh, hey,” moments that I want to share. The first came from the contact page. I had the first person ever send something through it. Not only that, it was a business inquiry. I was asked to do a sponsored […]
Kim and I dared to grill again today. She missed out on burgers last week so I promised her that we’d grill before she heads home. We barbecued up some chicken wings and legs, using up some grill rubs she had lying around. Not only was the food a complete success, we also walked away with a […]
