Thought that was worth all caps. Date to be determined. Location: somewhere in Hawaii if we can swing it. Oh, and I really need to look into some insurance for the ring. The Internets told me I could add a rider onto my apartment insurance, which would be great, if I had any.

So, I was motivated to start writing again by the efforts of both my Dad and my friend Jen Stevens, who was kind enough to pressure me into joining her writing group. A fun bunch, who give good constructive criticism, the hardest thing was to get back into it. Then I took a look at …

This is why cities are fun. I walk back to my apartment at 12:15am, after seeing Green Zone in the movie theater that is two blocks from my hose (score one for expensive Manhattan apartment). There is a guy who has walked behind me for an entire block who also enters. The doorman appears to …

I have to thank Jen for waiting for me for ten minutes at the California Pizza Kitchen while I “checked out” of apartment 243 of the famous(ly sucky) Bridge Suites. Thanks Jen. I know I was overextending myself when I planned to meet you for lunch on the East side, AND check out of that …

Wow. What a month. I have been more busy than ever before, mostly owing to my new job taking me all over the globe. I moved into my new apartment on Nov. 30th. “Moved in” is a generous term because I really only had a desk, a chair, four bookcases to hold my DVDs, and …

I took a few pictures of the place while it was empty that I have put up on Flickr. There aren’t that many, but it gives you an idea of the size of the place. I also made a drawing of the layout with measurements so I know how much space I have for various …
