“Something I Miss” Back when we were living in DE, there was an Italian Bistro in Wilmington. It had a huge fireplace, live music, three different seating areas, and fabulous service. It has long since closed, but I miss that place. Lisa and I would go every Friday night; we’d be served by the same [...]

“Something I Love About Myself” This is easy: my drive. When I find something I want to fix/solve/correct, and want to fix/solve/correct it, my drive is inexorable. When I wanted to learn stick, after work every night I’d drive to an empty parking lot and practicing from 2am to 5am. I’d drive all around town, [...]

“Beliefs” I’m a Hindu. Not a militant Hindu like my sister, but a Hindu all the same. I think I’ve discussed this at some length before in a variety of posts so I’ll try to make a condensed version. I’m not a Hindu in the traditional sense because of a couple reasons, as mentioned before: [...]

“Definition of Love” There’s a difference between ‘love’ and ‘in love’ in my mind. I ‘love’ my friends, my family, my children and my wife; I’m also ‘in love’ with my wife.

“Parents” My parents aren’t saints. What they are would vary from what stage in life I was going through. If you asked me back in the day, pre-teens, I’d say they were alright. They didn’t celebrate holidays like other people and didn’t spend time at home with us. My sister and I are close because [...]

I have a lot of first likes and people like that. First love? Lisa. I knew it when I first spoke to her. We talked on the phone from 7pm or so until 5.30am. And she loved me back! And she went through hell to stay with me. It doesn’t crystallize any more easily than [...]

Godfreakingdammit. Lisa’s blog got me to thinking: why do I keep writing the same crap all the time? It’s always ‘videogames, linux, sports, kids on occasion’. So here it is, in all its raw, gory detail. Hopefully it helps someone along the way. I’ll try to keep up. — Day 1: Who am I? I’m [...]
