It wasn’t until a couple of different e-mails drew my attention to it that I realized my diary was so badly out of date. I guess I’ve just been paying attention to other modifications/additions/improvements to the site, such as the navigation links (only visible if you’re using Mozilla 0.9.5+ or a couple other browsers), the [...]

I haven’t even gotten a nibble. I’m sure everyone’s a bit nervous about hiring right now with the economic uncertainty that’s looming, but knowing that doesn’t really make me feel much better. I could really use at least an interview, to get my hopes up.

Mine have been swollen and painful since June, making it difficult to swallow, sing, and sometimes talk. The only bigger pain in the ass is getting them taken out, which I had done today. The surgery itself was a breeze, but the recovery is already hurting like crazy, and from what I understand it’s likely [...]

Three months ago they told me I was up for a [...]

While Jennie continues to play Dr. Mario 64, I decided to write my first entry on my brand new iBook. As much as anything, I bought it so that I could goof around with Mac OS X. It’s pretty cool so far. It’s got its quirks, but so did Linux when I started playing with [...]

So there are apparently only two times I write in this diary – when I’m feeling depressed and/or bored. Today it’s more the latter than the former. I can’t seem to figure out this bug I’m trying to crack. It’s one of the few still outstanding for release, so it’s not like I can leave [...]

So I forgot to mention in yesterday’s entry how I was feeling in general. I went to see the doctor a couple weeks ago, the same day as July 2′s entry. The doctor confirmed that I was depressed – in fact, severely depressed. He said the fact that I hadn’t been feeling suicidal was remarkable [...]
