Final answer

Well, that last entry sure did clear things up for me. The overwhelming majority of people I’ve talked to about the plastic disc case issue seem to be regretting their decision to convert years ago. So I’m not going to do it. I’ll find a place for these babies, and soon.
Today, I continued my journey [...]

Pods

Media storage — what are your opinions?
I’m currently considering moving all of my discs (about 400) out of their jewel cases and into portable nylon disc sleeves. Part of me shudders at the thought of my discs living in little nylon pods for the rest of their lives, but the more pragmatic part of me [...]

Breakfast of Champions

This morning I woke up at 8:30. The early-morning café schedule has officially seeped into my regular life. For years I was a night owl — all throughout high school and for most of college I stayed up all night, frequently napping after class or work just to rejuvenate for more work later on in [...]

The Loop, and who’s out of It

When I said I was behind the times, I wasn’t kidding. One of my all-time favorite blogs is suddenly (well, since September 18) back online!

If it Ain’t Broke…

My computer is finally fixed! Prasie be!

Just the other day I received an email from my friend Justin, who commented on the travails that I represent here at gritmedia. Later that day, or maybe a few days later, I received another email — this one from a friend of a friend who had taken a gander at the site — that [...]

Free porn!

Two of next week’s workshop stories for my fiction class are…well, porn. One’s got a more romance novel-type feeling about it, the other makes liberal use of the internet as a foil to the plot events. Both mention erect penises in number. The funny thing is, my story — my pitiful little tale of [...]

The big ball of Red Tape

I just got back from City College where I had gone to figure out my financial aid situation — so far, they’d offered me none at all, which I found a little unnerving seeing as I hadn’t worked in the last year. I trekked over to the “Y” building — an imposing grey structure — [...]

More complaints, thank you.

The crackling sound in my ear is back. I believe it’s likely that I’ve had an ear infection since last February, but only a doctor could verify this fact. Until I find myself some free health insurance I may never know. Does anyone know of a company that will provide low-cost insurance to part-time students?
God [...]
