love

love is not something you hold love is not something you make love is not something you will love is not something you know love is boy am i lucky. aren’t we all?

A new place.

Well, I decided to accept Larry’s counter-offer of $575 and rent apartment #104. It means that I will have about a 44% increase in rent; slightly less than then the 100 % increase I will encounter on my utilities and Internet connection. The price of living alone. I could have searched for a random roommate; to be honest, David has been such a good roommate I think it would be very difficult indeed.

Slick `ole Sam Slade..

Mommy recommended The Maltese Falcon and I concur with her judgment! It was a very enjoyable movie. I borrowed it from Carol, Aaron’s girlfriend – and my only complaint is that there is a 30 minute documentary before the movie. I understand that nobody would watch it unless it if it were placed after.. but come on – put it after! ;P I didn’t do much today and it took me twelve hours to do it.

a night with the gang

i went for pizza with lisa and we talked about Eriko and her boyfriend, Ken. then we met up with the homies at mcmenamins : mark, aaron, jerry, joe, and melanie. it was fun – but the best thing was that i held my lavish self in-check, i had one piece of pizza and one glass of wine. =) i’d rather have spent the evening with Eriko, i think.

commoditization of software

Apparently I am helping contribute, as a portion of my patch for clamav-milter was accepted by the maintainer and submitted upstream to the maintainer of clamav. It feels awesome to contribute!

a moment of elation

Eriko sent me an email in which she talked about a conversation she had with her mom. Her mom asked her if she was getting married soon and Eriko responded, “i don’t think so.” Then her mom told her that they need time to save up for the wedding. I think the joyous moment for me is that knowing that I don’t need to rush and knowing that she doesn’t need to rush – if our love is true then there is nothing else we need to ask for.
