We went and saw the movie Cloverfield today with S & N. If you plan on seeing the movie stop reading now. Ok so I really liked the movie but then it just ends. They don’t explain anything. I guess that is what a sequel is for. Does everyone make a movie so they can [...]

We had lunch with our friends Creighton and Bobbi today. It was nice to see them again. Over the last semester I had only seen Bobbi once. Back when I was in university with everyone I used to see her almost daily. Our friendship has had to re adjust to our differing schedules; her being [...]

Ramona, mi compañera del trabajo, me acuerda de la amiga Kristin del colegio. Debo alejarme de ella. Creo que quiero enfocarme en la soledad, para pensar y contemplar.

I am exhausted. I can no longer stay up until 3 am and then wake up at 6 am the following day and expect to function. Maybe I never really could. On another note I am halfway through reading the three books that I purchased on the first. I tend to do that where I [...]
