I had a corneal transplant last week. Some people who’ve had corneal transplants have created diaries to help others know what they can expect, so I will too, but i’ll contain it within a single blog post so you don’t have to bounce around my website like a damn fool reading all kinds of non-cornea [...]

I haven’t smoked in 38 days. I’ve lost between 10-15lbs depending on when I weigh myself and how much water or food i’ve had. When’s the best time to weigh myself? My diet is still very healthy, though i’m not thinking about it much anymore. I stopped taking the Zyban/Bupropion/Wellbutrin for smoking cessation at the [...]

I move about once a year. Destroy. Rebuild.  Tonight i’m taking down some of the same pictures I hung up a year ago, some more recently, like a month ago. These ones are weirder to take down. I start packing stuff into boxes. After the pictures come down and the boxes appear on surfaces everything appears [...]

Depending on the day, and depending on what I ate i’m usually anywhere between 235 and 240 lbs. Since i’m 6′-2.5″ I don’t look obese, but I look puffy. Here’s why, and it’s not a unique story:  There was [...]

a poem for the playgirls of the universe, by charles bukowski I like women who haven’t lived with too many men or had too many one night stands. I don’t expect a virgin but I simply prefer a woman who hasn’t been rubbed dry by experience. There is a quality about women who have chosen [...]

Full Disclousure: I have absolutely no education or training in finance, or even business, though I am now employed to run a business, and do an OK job at it. The highest math course I took was Ideas Of Math, a Math Theory course that satisfied the IGETC requirements to begin major course studies at [...]

I run an eCommerce network and one of the most infuriating things is when a vendor gives me a product or price sheet in PDF format. This immediately tells me that this person has no idea what I need this file for and that he/she (tends to be she, don’t ask me why) has never [...]
