Patriots beat the Giants to finish off their perfect regular season. They aired the game on the NFL network, NBC, and CBS. That was the first time that a game had aired on so many stations. It was a hell of a game. I thought that the Giants might pack it in and rest their [...]
Went to the Lorenzo Goetz, Temple of Low Men reunion show at the Cowboy Monkey (Champaign). Both bands broke up over a year ago, but were back for a couple of nights of fun. There were a lot of the same people that have showed up in the past. It felt a little different than [...]
Went to Champaign this weekend to get some work done. Things are coming along on a few projects and I talked to Eleanore about a couple more that I am just starting. I still have a lot of friends down there, and it was fun to see some of them. I have met a lot [...]
And to all a good night. Saw Virginia today. I am not much of a Christmas person, so I didn’t really do much in the way of that. I am not a present person, but I did buy myself a few books. I want to bring back my book a week reading habit that I [...]
Went out with DJ Psycho Bitch tonight. She is great. Knows just want a person needs. I needed to get a little drunk. Went to Sky Bar and then to Sound Bar. Lots of Bars in there. All I know is that I have great hair. At least Eric loves it. Whoever Eric is. It [...]
No, I am not talking about the college conference; I am talking about my near range plans for the future. I have about 24 weeks before my child will be born, and I need to get a few projects done before that time. I have selected 10 big projects that I hope to get done. [...]
I just found a great site for keeping online todo list. It is called Remember the Milk. I like having a list available online so that I have access to it anywhere. They even have it set up to accept Jott messages. So I can call Jott and have it transcribe the voice memo and [...]
The C and D level students put on their final shows today. It was a lot of fun. I went to one of each level and the turnout was amazing. There were about 100 people at each performance. It was interesting to see some of the same exercises that I have done in my classes. [...]
There are 5 levels (levels A-E) of classes in the beginning improv program at Second City. I just finished the second level (B) and will start the third (C) in January. At the end of the C-E levels the classes put on a performance on the main stage. Today the classes from the last level [...]
Went to iO for an improv set tonight. They were doing it in a Shakespearean style. It was quite funny. I was impressed to see them build so many characters and have them all pay off by the end. I would have found it hard just to keep all of that stuff in my head. [...]
