Took a little trip to Toronto with Steve, Elizabeth and Mark for MLK day weekend. Fun. Very nice city to visit, went to the CN Tower, Hockey Hall of Fame, Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto Science Center and Casa Loma. Also spent some time wandering around town. Toronto has an amazing… Continue reading
I went to Olive Garden tonight to join Lynn for his birthday. That much was good, it’s good to have a group get together on someone’s birthday. But…I noticed for the first time the pushing of the wines. Maybe it’s because I’ve only been there with parents before, that they… Continue reading
Damn… I wish I could somehow save today and replay it for the other 264 days of the year. It’s about as perfect as a day can get. Sunny, with a few small scattered clouds, a slight breeze, late enough in the summer that it’s not too hot and it… Continue reading

ECE 932 – This class is currently causing me severe amounts of stress… I don’t have a group, a project or a good idea and time to research it for my next presentation on Friday. My gun broke, the slide catch no longer works… this just sucks, because now I… Continue reading
