It's been about two weeks now since my allergies decided to try to kill me. While trimming the Lilu cat the other night couldn't have helped, it's just the general Austin weather and air full of pollen and such that is bringing me down. It hasn't...

I ran my first Capitol 10K!

2008-03-31T04:28:11Z

With the remains of a sinus infection and cough, and in the rain no less! All things considered, I'm very pleased with my time. I ran a solid ten minute mile throughout and have only just stiffened up a bit. I'm tired and will likely be sore tomo...

Made it back from San Antonio later than planned (that story will have to wait for another time...too much reality for a Sunday), so I missed most of the day parties and even some of the evening concerts. A co-worker friend and I met up at Audito...

So my RSVPs to free shows paid off. Every venue we tried to get in yesterday let us in with no problems, and we saw a handful of bands, had enough free drinks to make me dehydrated this morning, and purchased 2 of the greatest meals ever, at the ...

It's SXSW time again. I was out of town last year, but I'm all primed and ready to make up for lost time. And no, I don't do the badge thing--puh-lease, those things are expensive with a capital FU. Luckily, a friend of mine introduced me to all ...

I have pictures and news, but not the time to actually post everything, so here's a brief rundown. UPDATE: Photos made it in after all! Voting at my precinct didn't finish until almost 9--meaning the last person in line at 7 didn't vote until ...

It's Academy Awards night and I haven't seen a single one of the films that are nominated this year. No really, not a single one--and I'm not talking about the big five, I mean every category. For shame. Oh well, I've been, shall we say, busy. Pe...
