the sweetest tongue

Ok. I admit it. I am a micro-manager.
In everything I do or is related to my duties, I feel safer and more at ease when I have a hand in the process. I feel calm when I know that my finger is on the pulse on everything that is happening around me. I do not [...]

I’m trying. Be Creative.

I finally got to watch Volver today. It was as beautiful, colorful, and stunning as I expected it to be. Penelope Cruz is stunning, and I am rooting for her to win the Oscar for Best Actress this year.

Those eyes!
I love Almodovar’s films. They always captivate you from shot to shot, and the dialogue is [...]

I had big plans this Christmas. All of the parental units were going to be out of town for Mississippi, and scheduled to be back by Christmas Eve at night. I was to make Christmas Eve dinner for 14 people, and commandeer a house of 6 younger cousins and sisters.
On Saturday night, I decided to [...]

My sister surprised me at work today by popping into the mall when I got off. She was doing some Christmas shopping, and wanted to surprise me with a visit. Luckily she caught me just before I was about to sneak out of everyone’s sight to get home. We had dinner, and had the most [...]

John is gone.
I miss you, John. And I will continue missing you. You were really the only person in Miami that I still kept in touch with. We were both odd people to have [...]

This time tomorrow, I’ll be on a plane to Las Vegas, the straightest place on earth, according to my roommate, and on my first, real vacation in a very, very long time.
My family trip to Puerto Rico does not count. I went for familial reasons.
While my roommate and friend Mark have plans to hit the [...]

At this moment in time, at 3:23AM in the morning, I have given up on sleeping. I Spent the time period between 6PM and 1AM playing WoW, with an hour used for dinner at Willy’s.

I also managed to play around with Freehand and Fireworks again, even though I KNOW that they will be discontinued by [...]

I’m running on six cans of Cherry Coke right now (me and my roommate go through six fridge-packs of Coca-Cola Products a week). Georgia’s tax holiday just about almost kicked my ass. I spent my Sunday in a daze, waking up at 1 in the afternoon, and spending my day playing with photo management software, [...]
