~Tuesday~ I “pulled one over on the man” today, by taking one of the new parking spots along Hillsborough Street that are usable, but for which there haven’t yet been parking meters installed. I felt at once a little bit guilty, and a lot a bit giddy, about walking across the street to my building … Read more
~Sunday~ Here are two things I wanted to capture last night, but forgot to—both having to do with songs I heard on Foxy 107/104 on the way downtown to Courtney’s gig at Hibernian: The first was this song with the most inane lyrics by a guy with a deep—trying to be sexy—voice à la Barry … Read more

~Tuesday~ Another short bus ride this morning for day two of the DITA conference at the McKimmon Center. Though, I never saw her, I listened to a little kid “saying the darnedest things” in the back of the bus during the short time I was on it. Today’s entry will be on the affirmation-heavy side, … Read more
~Monday~ I caught the “short bus” today, meaning I only traveled four stops instead of the fifteen or so I normally do to get to work. And that’s because I attended the first day of a DITA Conference, which was held at the McKimmon Center, which is very close to my house, which is one more “which”—make that two … Read more

I decided to drive myself to Greensboro for UNC Cause 2008 instead of riding with a work companion in case I need to head to Jacksonville for any reason over the next couple of days. UNC Cause 2008 This year’s conference will be held in Greensboro, NC from November 17th-19th. This year’s conference theme is … Read more
