Happy New Year 2006

Wow. 2006 already. Time for resolutions and so on, if I did those sort of things
2005 was pretty good for me. Amy graduated from her master’s program, and we wrapped up our short stay in Cambridge, Mass., to return to Santa Barbara. I was lucky enough that Peoples’ Self-Help Housing took me back onboard as [...]

Holidays

So, the holidays are almost over. And I’m already pretty burned out by them—but at the same time, they have been pretty good….
The biggest downer for the holiday was not having Amy here… and that’s a pretty huge downer. But, with being able to call her over the internet and so on, things were a [...]

“Checking in”

Well, it’s been a few days since I’ve checked in here…. A lot has been going on to keep me quite busy. I’ve bought my ticket to India, and I’ve enrolled myself in an online master’s program so that I have something to keep myself busy with when I’m in India.
I also just spent most [...]

Lunchtime@2657 (re-visited)

Dinnertime with my theatric G’pa….Lunchtime was much of the same….
A long time ago, I wrote this story called Lunchtime at 2657. It was about my relationship with my grandfather, which has more-or-less always been positive. I wrote it while I was in Cambridge, MA—far away on the other side of the country. Everyone in my [...]

Template Time

“Sue Me” site redesign

“So, sue me already…” has been redisigned and relaunched as a mrdwab.com subdomain.
My web-host, iPowerWeb, recently upgraded my storage from 3GB to 10GB and increased my monthly bandwidth allowance, so I decided to redesign the sue me site and upload all the music I had available (most of my stuff is still in Pittsburgh).

Hunting for a Job

Job hunting… again….
This time, halfway around the world, in Chennai where the beautiful Amy is currently living and working. It’s an exciting prospect—I really enjoy getting a chance to live and work abroad—but I’ll be a lot more excited if I had a job lined up for me.
So far, I’ve been looking online for work. [...]

Selling my hardcore soul

I sold my hardcore soul the other day… for cheap.
Actually, all I did was sell off the majority of my 7” records, but in a way, that action can be seen as giving up my hardcore soul—more so than if I had sold some of my hardcore albums or CDs.
So far, I don’t miss them, [...]
