Snow
So much snow. Stuck inside. Wish I had some cocoa.

Freaking Out
Category: life
I'm forcing myself to take today off. I was so busy all week, I've got 100 unread messages in my inbox and a million things to do, but I'm refusing to do anything today. Trying to relax. I used to party and slack off and stay out all night, and that was about it - the entire story of my early 20's.

Now I freak out about everything and can't stop to take a day off from work and am always panicked about not getting enough done. Lame. And counterproductive, I just get burned out and can't work all day every day anyways, so what's the point of going to extremes? So I'm sitting here trying to breath and read a book. And posting on (e:strip). Wish me luck :)

On another note thanks for stopping by the pot luck everyone! I didn't do much except pick a date, and you all come through with delicious food and some great conversation. You all are the reason for its success. Cheers!

rest hard.

yeah, i know the feeling. i slept at work last night again. i was so tired and just couldn't drive home. i woke up at like 3 am and was so confused as to where i was and what was going on. i had to hurry up and get out of there before 9am so that i wouldn't get charged for 2 days of parking at the ramp instead of one. i wont make that mistake twice.

Not sure how deserved it is, but needed anyways! Sorry you couldn't make it to the Potluck, Del, we should have saved you cake ^_^ but it was too delicious.

Good for you, Jim! Ain't nothing like a well-deserved rest.
james - 12/15/07 21:27
and I will cash out at 39! MWA HA HA HA
paul - 12/15/07 21:09
I let myself fall into a similar pattern after my party 20s years. At this rate we will be dead at 40.

Category: internets
Wahoo!

I just bought jameslindley.com - someone let it expire! I've had jimlindley.com for a long time but jameslindley.com was tantalizingly out of reach.

Actually it expired a few weeks ago and someone snapped it up before I could, and then asked me to pay them $250 for it. But I declined. And they must have cancelled their order, because tonight it was mysteriously available again. For just $10. Yippee!

I always felt a .com was beneath you Paul. We should get you estrip.gov
paul - 12/11/07 18:55
I wish the estrip.com domain squatter would let go of it, ;( Still nothing. :::link:::
tinypliny - 12/11/07 18:51
Oops, sorry didn't see that you posted the cost already. :) Wow. $10!
tinypliny - 12/11/07 18:50
How about jimmyjames.com or jimjames.com?

PS: How much are domain-names selling for nowadays?

Holiday Dinner: in Two Days!
Category: estrip

Don't forget that Thursday is the (e:strip) holiday dinner / pot luck, this Thursday at around 7pm! 24 Linwood right off North Street in Buffalo.

Don't sign up on this journal, sign up here, on the official news journal about the potluck. That journal's comments tell of what others have already signed up to bring. It's OK to come last minute, and if you don't know what to bring or if there is some problem with bringing something just send me a message and we'll work something out, don't worry.

Previous (e:strip) dinners have had 16 or more people show up, so it should be a great time. You can also sign up for the (e:strip) secret santa at the dinner, if you haven't already. I'll also have a box out to collect canned goods for the food bank, if you think to bring some to donate.

tinypliny - 12/11/07 18:45
Oh Man. I will have to go shopping tomorrow. :/
janelle - 12/11/07 14:09
Jim, have you committed to a particular food bank because I saw in the Buffalo News where this Food Bank had been broken into and $1,000 worth of food stolen.
