Up at 4:30 AM after getting to bed later than usual last night, but I pulled myself out of bed, ate breakfast and headed into the gym. I was on the elliptical shortly before 6 AM.
I just finished watching Monday night’s episode of Studio 60 after having found out last week that the show is going on indefinite hiatus this week because of low ratings. The problem here is that the writing is too smart for the average television viewer and that’s a shame, because the writing is brilliant. In…
When I got home from work this evening, the warm, 50 degree weather had melted enough of the ice in front of the driveway that I was actually able to park my car in the driveway tonight for the first time in almost one week! I finished SF AGE Volume 1, Issue 6, which completes…
I’m not a big fan of mojito drinks, but late this morning, I tried Orbit’s new Mojito Mint Gum. It’s actually not too bad. Now when jen_ashlock gets a craving for a Mojito, she doesn’t have to fork out $15 for one; instead, just pop a piece of Mojito-flavored gum and you’ll be set! This…
Up at 4:30 after having gotten a pretty decent night’s sleep over all. Lights out just after 9 PM and with the exception of a few rambling dreams, I more or less slept through the night which is rare for me. I was into the gym by 5:50 AM.

This evening I took a break from everything to watch Parenthood. I hadn’t seen the movie in a long time and TiVo recorded it sometime last week. I forgot what a good movie it was, and I completely forgot about the ending. It was kind of like I’d never seen it before and it was…
I finally got my lazy butt to the gym this long weekend and did a full cardio workout this afternoon. I had to go to the Greenbelt gym, and it was more crowded than I expected, but the weight room was pretty empty. It felt good to get in a workout.
AJ and Denisse called me early yesterday afternoon to ask about a hotel in NYC that they are thinking of staying at. Since none of us were doing much, I decided to head back over to their place. Another friend of theirs was going to be there as well. It turned out to be fun.…
Volume 1, Issue 5 is a very special issue for me for two reasons each of which I will explain below so bear with me. First, it is special because it is the first issue of SCIENCE FICTION AGE that I ever saw and that I ever owned. I came across the magazine by accident,…
