Time to Ring In 2010 . . . Almost!
Thursday, December 31st, 2009Tonight, the world rings in 2010 with much fanfare. I will be doing the same, except my New Years doesn’t happen until January 9, also known as my birthday.

Christmas 2009: Goodbye Great Grandma
Wednesday, December 30th, 2009This year, Christmas had a somewhat somber mood due to my great grandmother’s passing. I went down to North Carolina last Tuesday with 2 of my cousins.

Friday, December 11th, 2009Wow is it cold out there today. And I thought yesterday was cold. So much for a possible mild winter. As long as it just stays cold, I’m good. At least so far, where I’m living has decent heat. For those that don’t know, as of the end of March, I moved out of my […]

Well I started looking and saw that there’s a WordPress for BlackBerry and decided to give it a shot. Maybe this will finally get me […]
