Exciting Event No. 3: HOLY F.&%^!! S*%.!!

So, once upon a time I went to Brophy, which is a private all-male high school in Phoenix. Next door was Xavier, an all-girl private school. In my freshman and sophmore years, there was a girl I hung out with name Catherine Kresge. She was very nice, a bit quiet, and way out of my league (at least, that was how I justified never working up the nerve to talk to her except amongst that small group of friends).

She went to the U of A the same time I did, and went into the theater. I didn't see her a lot, but went to her shows (though often she never knew - I never did work up that nerve) when I could and have always suspected she'd do well. Since I've been looking up my old friends and aquaintences, I looked her up.

And she's been on "The O.C.", and "That 70's Show", and she's got a new movie. Awesome?! YES! Go Catherine! Woot! I wonder if I can even still contact her.

I also found Steph, whom I also had a terrible crush in my early years at UA, but hung out with me and introduced me to more super cool things than I could properly list. This is fun. I just hope they'll remember me.

Exciting Event No. 2: Aaron

I am at work, being bored about half a week ago. I find out, through eavesdropping, that most of the staff have Myspace accounts. I wonder if pretty much everybody my age has a Myspace account. And so I type in the names of two people I haven't seen in forever: Jamie and Aaron. Two friends from Boy Scouts and grade school, respectively.

Turns out, Aaron does. I haven't seen him in a decade - over a third of my total life - and it's a bit odd seeing a picture of him drunk. Of course, I've been drunk too but ... having last seen him just a little while after our voices changed it's a bit weird. But then again - I'm married.

One more try at a blog.

I've started a lot of journals in the past. In some cases it was because I as a bored/moody/lovesick teenager. Later, it was to catalogue my trip(s) to Japan between 2000-2004.

This time, I'm writing as to get my thoughts down. I am blessed with an active mind and cursed with a terrible, lazy memory. I have more ideas than I can keep in my head at once, and both the good and bad vanish very quickly from me. Hence, this blog.

A few rules for myself: nothing I'd find boring to read. I will link when appropriate. I will write well. I will write twice weekly. I will not censor myself despite the fact that my parents/in-laws might read this. I reserve the right to break my own rules.
