Halloween Hotness: A Retrospective

October 30th, 2007 · 2 Comments · General

In the past few years, Halloween has become, like, my favorite holiday ever. OK, aside from Christmas. And my birthday.
I mean, what other excuse is there to be shamelessly hoochified in the middle of fall?
Here’s a look at some Halloween memories from years back:

Troop 69
I loved this costume, despite not being able to find [...]

More from Project “Lets write about our feelings”

October 30th, 2007 · 2 Comments · Feelings

Yesterday evening, as my computer was at the repair shop (Matt’s house) and there was nothing urgent that I needed to accomplish, I found myself in a peculiar place. Sitting in silence in my oddly clean room, I realized how much I missed being alone.

There’s more in me. I’m sure of it.

Cop-out post #847629

October 21st, 2007 · 16 Comments · General

So, I’m in the middle of a major Jessie Spano freak-out session (again) and don’t have time to post anything substantial. (Although, at this very moment, Southern California is on fire and I’m really starting to believe the world is coming to an end and we should therefore just abandon all responsibilities and make out.)
Anyway, [...]

The Crazy Scale

October 18th, 2007 · 2 Comments · TV

From a guy’s perspective, according to “How I Met Your Mother,” a girl can be crazy, as long as she makes up for it in hotness.

 
Note to self: I should probably up my hotness.

Quick plug: Need a job? Work at the Apple Store! Any location! My sister Carissa would like everyone to know that they are hiring for various positions. If interested, send your resume to carissawooATgmail.com. She’ll then personally hand it to The Jobster himself. Or something like that.

Girls’ Night In

October 7th, 2007 · 3 Comments · Family

Portrait of a good night
Yep, there’s no better way to break the ice than with some friendly rounds of naughty ring toss and pin the bowtie on the nekkid paper fiance. I had a great time at Tiff’s bachelorette party, despite a few unsettling moments, like when my cute and innocent cousin was wiggling her [...]
