At LONG last...my 1st Lacoste shirt!

After years -- YEARS! -- of yearning for one, but never quite being able to pay $89.50 for a damn polo shirt, I finally gave in and forked over the cash for a black Lacoste polo. After trying 3 different sizes on. In 3 different colors. Yes, it's a momentous moment in my young life. Oh, and the best part? I only paid $64 and change. BOOYAH! That's the REAL reason I finally checked this off my Life List tonight. Thank you, Jesus, for the random 25% coupon in the mail, combined with a $3 bit of stupid luck. Oh, I can't WAIT to prance around like a preppy prick in my Lacoste shirt this summer!

HAPPY 2012!!!!!

...24 days late! Well THAT'S no way to start this blog off for a new year! Yeah, I think we're pretty much done here.

RIP, Remington Electric Razor

You've had a long life. Since the week I went off to college. Bought you at K-Mart. You have served your -- for me -- rather meager purpose well. You made me a man and I thank you for that.

December smells like a rose!

This is absolutely the longest I've gone without writing on here since I started this thing. Almost three months, kids. Yeah, who am I kidding...this blog's relevance is LONG gone. It fulfilled a need during a certain time of my life, and I'm happy for that. I'm also proud of a lot of things I've written here...if I could only find them. OY, the task of sifting through all of these! But it's been almost six years since I began writing here; the first three are probably where I did some of my best writing, and certainly where I did my MOST writing. After Facebook came into the picture in the middle of 2008, though, my productivity level on here steadily declined. This is not me closing the book on this blog; that may come some other time, but not now. I'm just saying that I'm finally OK with not giving a shit about this site anymore...for the time being...in this forum. If I can focus my ADD-riddled brain, I may take the name and concept elsewhere; who knows. But why write where no one is looking? Well, actually, I can certainly still use this as a place where people can view my precious words from the past. ANYWAY...so the title of this post refers to not only it being the first of December, but that I've spied several solitary roses blooming this week. I've seen this other Decembers...always very odd. New life...in the darkest month.

ONE of these days...

Maybe...hopefully...this blog will be what it used to be. Entirely too much going on. OTHER writing...PAID writing. YAY! So when you come onto this blog and say, "Christ, this is the crap that he's writing?!"...well, no, I can do MUCH better than these recent posts would lead you to believe. Again, DIG DEEP into the blog's past for my GEMS! Were there enough words in ALL CAPS in this entry?

The beach is ALMOST mine!

THREE more days until they are FREE and VACANT!

Dunkin Donuts at 1am is my savior

hi

September: Day Two

Yeah, i'm not liking this new blogger look. The finished product looks the same, but when you're writing the blog, it is VERY confusing and cluttered looking. That's all i've got at the moment.
