Always Saying Too Much

Posted on December 30, 2003February 28, 2022 by KZ

Unspecified Male Friend: So, do you want to do her? Kevin: Nah, it’s not like that. Anyway, she has a boyfriend. Unspecified Male Friend: So? What does that change? Kevin: Yeah, I know what you mean. Fine, I guess on some level, sure I do. But really…deep down, don’t all guys wanna do their female…

Nobody’s Fault But My Own

Posted on December 24, 2003February 28, 2022 by KZ

Right now as I’m typing this entry, I could have been out with my work friends, watching Return of the King for the second time. That film, by the way, nearly had me in tears, it was so moving. Or, instead of a movie, I could have been out drinking with J (my Brett Ashley,…

Checking In

Posted on December 16, 2003February 28, 2022 by KZ

There hasn’t been much to say lately. The one thing that I’m supposed to be writing (a personal statement for law school applications) just isn’t flowing the way that it should. Consequently, I will be turning my applications in a month later than I had hoped to. Stupid writer’s block. Or maybe it’s apathy. Or…

The Right to Party

Posted on November 24, 2003February 28, 2022 by KZ

Most people recommend against drinking alone, but it’s honestly not so bad once you get over the whole pride thing. Actually, I believe having a few drinks by yourself on occasion could be a good thing. Whenever you alter your state, you become far more aware of what your “natural state” is really about. Me…

More About Moore

Posted on November 13, 2003February 28, 2022 by KZ

Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore got the boot today for his refusal to remove a monument honoring the Ten Commandments from the lobby of the state courthouse. When I first mentioned Moore in my blog, I was visibly irritated and admittedly antagonistic. But now that Moore is out of work, I can’t help but feel…

Thought I’d Something More to Say

Posted on November 5, 2003February 28, 2022 by KZ

Today I stumbled across an old, forgotten watch while cleaning my room. It’s one of those cheap plastic stopwatches with a rope to hang around your neck. I know it’s a time-keeping device and all that, but I was surprised to see that the lousy thing was still, well, on time (discounting the end of…

Save That Talk for Your First Gray Hair or Something

Posted on October 22, 2003February 28, 2022 by KZ

A new pet peeve of mine that’s been gradually developing over the years is when people in their early twenties proclaim to be old every time they yawn in the evening before 10:00pm. Whatever happened to enjoying your youth? People are so eager to shrivel up and bury themselves long before it’s their time. Let’s…

We’re Miles Apart, Me and Her

Posted on October 12, 2003February 28, 2022 by KZ

Dude, why is it that the cutest girls I meet are usually wholesome, churchgoing Christians? It’s not as if I have something against them. In fact, I’m under the impression that quite the opposite is true. I never feel “good” enough to chase after a nice Christian girl because I don’t think I could ever…

Now, with a certainty which never after deserted him, he saw the planets -- the 'earths' he called them in his thought -- as mere holes or gaps in the living heaven -- excluded and rejected wastes of heavy matter and murky air, formed not by addition to, but by subtraction from, the surrounding brightness. And yet, he thought, beyond the solar system the brightness ends. Is that the real void, the real death?~C.S. LewisSource: Out of the Silent Planet
