We might be moving back to Portland this summer, instead of next summer, as we had originally planned. The situation here is a lot rougher than either of us had thought it would be. The job market is terrible. Annie’s still unemployed, and my boss has cut my hours back so much that we’re barely [...]


Some people take things too seriously. It always amazes me when I see how stressed out people get over the smallest things in their lives. It’s like “HEY! You’re alive! You’ve got friends! You’ve got food to eat and a roof over your head! Lighten up!” But of course, I don’t say stuff like that [...]


background: Jester has referred scott to a potential web design employer. Jester: So, I was talking to [potential employer] and he said he had been looking at your sites. Then he asked me what kind of a person you were. And I knew exactly what he was worried about. scott: what? Jester: Well, he’d looked [...]


So my computer works again! For the first time in nearly two weeks, I’m doing internet stuff on my computer instead of Annie’s! Hooray! How did I do it? Well, I’m glad you asked. First I yanked the damn sound card right out of the box, and the I formatted the hard drive and reinstalled [...]


Yarrrr… (I say that quite a bit… Pirate noises are the best). Well, since I last updated, the term has ended successfully! Out of my three classes this term, not one of them had a traditional final. Graphic Design III had a large final project which was due last week, and then we didn’t meet [...]


Well, I haven’t made an entry in two months. That’s a bit too long for an update, I think. Hmmm… what’s been going on with me… Annie and I are still getting along great, and life in our apartment is awesome. We’ve finally gotten over the debt that accompanies a move, and have gotten to [...]


On my way to work this morning, I was thinking, and I realized that Y2K is almost upon us… and no one seems to really care anymore. There was this huge media blitz around it, and then we were almost at war, and everyone forgot about it. Then once the “war” ended, people had forgotten [...]


Well, finals are almost over, and life is starting to become a little more managable. The big news is that I’m moving! I’m going to try to get the place today, and then Annie and I are moving in next Friday. This weekend I’m headed up to Ellensburg to help her move her stuff back [...]


Wow… been awhile since I last wrote. Spring Break happened. Good break. Spent the entire time with Annie. We went to the beach, hung out at her place, then hung out at my place, and generally had a grand time. I had a psuedo-job interview after Jester referred me to a coworker, but they were [...]


Annie: A note for unaware readers: In case you have no idea who I am or who Annie is, and you just stumbled into this document by accident, Annie is my girlfriend. I met her at a party her older brother threw, that I was attending because he and I were good friends. We hit [...]
