Today’s Garfield strip says it all!!

They’ve been doing a great series this week on Jon’s filthy apartment that’s definitely worth the 5 minutes to read.  You can find Monday’s strip here.

I laughed so hard I nearly cried…

I was just on the SPU webpage (my alma mater) and noticed that they are having a FREE, 100% Environmentally Friendly electronics recycling drive this weekend (March 15th & 16th) in one of their parking lots. There are only 4 of them (excluding dorm lots) so at most you’ll guess wrong 3 times. Though apparently there will be signs so you may get it right on you first try. Check out the site for more details. The purpose is to raise money for Union Gospel Mission.

Here are the details:

Seattle Pacific University
3307 3rd Ave West
Seattle, WA, 98119

Corner of 3rd & Nickerson

8am to 8pm

[UPDATE - 2:50pm] I just swung by to donate my crap and found that they’ve set up in the Emerson dorm back-lot. This is the lot right along Nickerson, west of 3rd ave. There are several semi-truck trailers lined up along the street. You can’t miss it!

So now that Kate’s foot is on the mend, she and I have decided that we want to take ballroom dancing lessons together (starting with EC Swing, then WC Swing and so on). Kate’s been a dancer her entire life and I’ve began swing dancing fairly casually without much formal instruction to speak of when I was in college, and so together we decided to take it to the next level and actually get good at it!

Gang violence sucks. I’ll say it again: GANG VIOLENCE SUCKS!!

I was reading the LA Times today when I stumbled upon this article.

So, Kate and I are heading down to Ashland, Oregon this coming weekend so I can meet her mom and get some good rest. However, she wasn’t content to just let me go down there and rest… she had to throw a challenge into the mix. You see, she’s planning on turning off her cell-phone for the entire weekend–unplugging from the world–and anyone who knows me knows that I’ve got this whizz-bang phone called a Treo that I’m practically addicted to it. Well, she commented that she wanted me to consider doing the same.

Hey all… So its Sunday night and I haven’t yet posted anything. I know, I know. I’m a bad blogger, but I promise… a post is coming. I just got an idea for something awesome tonight and will post it as soon as I get a chance to write it. :-P 

It will be on the topic of love: what it means and why we love. This one in particular came out of several conversations I had with various folks over the course of this weekend. Stay tuned and have a great Monday!

Wow, it sure has been a long time since my last post… 2.5 months to be exact. That’s too long and I mean to fix that this weekend.

So keep your eyes peeled folks. A new blog posting will come your way this weekend. In the meantime, have a great weekend. And if you’re in Washington… get out and caucus!

So I was just walking through FoxNews.com as part of my morning routine when I couldn’t help but notice this front-page story, linking to Michael Yon’s latest post about a tremendously encouraging and humbling circumstances in the Dora neighborhood of Baghdad. I know I said an earlier post that I wouldn’t write much more about the war, but I read this article and got so excited I couldn’t help myself.

I was reading through a few of my daily funnies today and Dilbert stood out as particularly funny and poignant:

Isn’t that the truth? For me in particular, those drunken lemurs have been sober as long as I’ve known them but it all still made me laugh. Have a great weekend everyone.
