San Fransister
The last few weeks have been on overdrive. Tomorrow I start 2009. The past three weeks…
Week -3
Final exam. Had to study extra hard to stay ahead of the curve, those MIT kids are effing smart.
Week -2
My second trip to San Francisco, this time for about eight days… and it was glorious.
Week -1
My younger sister visited [...]

No Parents
So I watched a movie this weekend based on a couple people’s amazing recommendations, The Orphanage. Well screw you bastards, it was a horror flick and ruined my weekend and most likely most of this week! Holy shit, I live alone… uncool.
The acting and directing was amazing by the way.

Pretty Annoying
I’ve been watching a lot of movies lately. It’s been great, I love flicks, but there’s something that has been consistently annoying the hell outta me… pretty girls. They annoy the shit outta me.
Take for instance The Forbidden Kingdom, great movie I thought. Not an authentic martial arts type, but the kind of martial arts [...]

Onced
I watched Once this past weekend. Worth it? Most definitely. Would I watch it again? Not for a long while. I don’t know why, maybe it hit a hidden button on me, but I found it to be a downer, which ironically I don’t think the movie is meant to [...]
Running Festival
So I’m off to run again, this time at two races, back to back. The Husky Run on March 29th and the Luv2Run Boston 5K #1 on March 30th. The worst thing about all of this? I have to be there by 10AM, what a pain. So if you’re around that [...]

I’d Rather Be At Paddy’s
I got out of the shower this morning and noticed I had two voice mails. Strange for somebody to call at 8am, but I just shrugged my shoulders and continued to dial my voice mail number… complete silence, both voice mails. Curious. I then checked the caller-id and they were both from [...]
2-Oh-Oh-8
23 is upon us, let us rejoice… OK, I’m done. Honestly, even numbered years have been a downer for me, I really wasn’t looking forward to this year, but time is a dimensional structure that waits for no man, well, maybe Marty McFly.
So the New Years was hectic, not only because of the trip, [...]
Sickopath
I watched Michael Moore’s Sicko this past weekend. I am now adamant about moving to Europe… or Canada, I haven’t decided. I’m adamant about not having decided where I’m moving to. I’d give Cuba a shot, but I can’t stand the heat…and communism, more the heat, I don’t really know much about [...]
Michael Bay…Transform!
This past Sunday I grabbed some sushi at Minado and a flick at the IMAX with a couple friends. Both co-workers, one of them a new intern from Austria that I’m “officially” mentoring. Yeah, I’m kinda sorta in charge of this 23 year old grad student for about 8 months, gotta show him [...]
Great Weak
Oh man, non-stop week for TB here. My little sister was visiting me for ten days, it ruled, but oh so tiring. I think I averaged ~4 hours of sleep a night, work was horrendous the next day, but it didn’t matter. Also, I think I’ve eaten more this past week than [...]
