Are your parents racist?

Holy shit. I’ve been listening to the Dave Ryan show this week, and there was a segment called “How Will They Take It?” There was a woman on who was terrified of telling her mom that she was dating a black man, so she called the station to help her. She was very open about how racist her mother was, the things that she says about black people. It was very clear to me that she was going to take it worse than what the radio DJs thought.
Note: I won’t …

What in the hell happened to country music?

First of all, I have beef with anyone who says something to the effect of, “I listen to everything except country lolz.” When did country music turn into something you’re ashamed to listen to? I will be the first to admit that country music has been on a slippery downward slope since the late 90s. Once I was old enough to listen to music on my own, we were already listening to bullshit artists like LeAnn Rimes and Shania Twain. Even worse was the introduction of Rascal Flatts to country …

nMedia HTPC-1000B Home Theater Case + LCD Review

I don’t know why I always do this to myself. I decide I need something that I really don’t need and I spend money without thinking about it. The other day I decided I wanted to get a new case for my computer because I wanted to put it in the living room, so an HTPC sounded like a good idea. However, a lot of the ones I looked at only took a micro-ATX motherboard, and I have the older, full-sized ATX. I decided I didn’t want to spend a …

After not hearing from her in two days, she sent me a text asking me “What’s up?” I didn’t reply. It wasn’t purposely; I was just busy, and then I forgot to respond to her. I think she realized we wouldn’t go much further than we had because she finally asked me if things didn’t go well. I let her know I’d been busy, but we never sent each other any messages after that. I was expecting feelings to be hurt or to be confronted after all that talk about …

I knew this would be a disaster. I’ve been talking to an 18-year-old girl for a while who seemed cool some days, and naive others. In my mind, I was content not talking to her, but I kept thinking, “Okay okay she’s cute. Just one date. We’ll see what happens.”
I texted her this morning to make sure we were still on for that afternoon. She lived near town, so I knew it would be a semi-long drive. I had a long talk with my ex yesterday and I wasn’t looking …

I have a love/hate relationship with this city.

I enjoy the state of Texas ten times more than I’ve ever enjoyed Florida. Florida didn’t seem horrible growing up – I had a lot of friends, a lot of girlfriends, a lot of sex and drugs, but everything was so bad for me. I won’t blame the state, it was just the people I surrounded myself with.
In Houston, I have friends too, but there are much less. I don’t have random associates and acquaintances like I did back in the day. The people I know I think are actually …

I’ve had 7 of these tonight.

I have the drive to stay awake tonight, but I won’t. I’m restless. Woke up early on my day off to take the new kitten to the vet, make sure all is well with him. I let Wilson get a good whiff of him. He wasn’t having it. I’ll give him a while to get used to the idea.
Back to work tomorrow. School begins hardcore for a full month. I get to be irritated and ignore everyone I know for 30 days. Many will thank me for that (I’m being …
