I love going out to dinner and spending more money than the cost of the food that I order/eat. There is just nothing more fun than paying for not only my own, but everyone else's food also.

Allow me to explain. I went to C & O the other night with a group of people for a friend's birthday and it was decided that we would order family style. The argument given as to why was that it would be "cheaper" than everyone ordering on their own. I eventually found out that by "cheaper" they meant "more expensive." Originally, I had planned to split an entree with Bridget as the entrees are large and more than enough for two people. This would have cost me around $10 total with tip and everything (including paying for my share of the birthday girl's dinner). Now what ended up happening is that I got the joy of paying twice that amount (as it was decided that everyone pays the same amount)  for wine that I didn't want/drink/order, calamari that I didn't want/eat/order, and a dessert for the birthday girl that was redundant as it was well known that there was a banana cream pie waiting for her at her apartment. This pie was to serve the very same purpose as the mango sorbet that was ordered, namely the purpose of "dessert."

I guess it was my fault though. It was obviously naive of me to think that I would only be paying for what I ordered and/or consumed. And it appears that they were right about it being cheaper. Their part of the bill was far less than what it should have been.

This is it. The moment you've all been waiting for: the triumphant return of Mr. Cool. I'm back with wittier comments, strikingly clever observations, and, of course, the same boyish good looks. Yes, you may all rejoice. You get the privilege of reading another blog entry detailing the events of my life for the past few months.

I am still in school...as a 5th year...soon to be 6th. It's kind of strange seeing the people in my classes that came to UCLA the same year I did, but are now grad students. Also, pretty much all of my friends have graduated. Wait, did I say friends? I meant "friends."

Bridget is still hanging out with me for whatever reason. I guess I pay well enough or she's just desperately afraid of being alone. I don't think I care to find out. You know, don't look the gift horse in the mouth.

My brother Brian is getting married in about a month. The wedding should be fun. I can get trashed and then stumble through a speech since I am co-best man with James. Of course I think marriage is a mistake. To quote Mallrats: "It's like my grandma always said, 'Why buy the cow, when you get the sex for free?'"

This concludes our session today. And what did we learn? I can't think of a single thing. If you can, get help. Now!

I now have 2 monitors on my computer. After receiving an LCD for my birthday back in November, my old CRT sat on my floor collecting dust. With no DVI cable for the LCD and no means to acquire one cheaply, the CRT went unused as the LCD took its place in the VGA slot on my video card.

This was the situation for 2 months until, last night, I realized that Bridget's new video card came with a DVI to VGA adaptor. After borrowing/stealing it from her, the CRT is back in business as an extension of my windows desktop.

I realize that out of the few of you who read this, even fewer will care about what I just said. So yes, I did just waste 1 minute of your life (2, if you read like I do) and no, you can't have it back.

Well now that I have updated you with everything going on in my life, I will leave you with a joke:

What's the best part about having sex with twenty eight year olds? There are twenty of them.

I hope you all(8 of you) enjoy the new profile picture. That is Fat the cow from the Harvest Moon series of video games. Yes, that's right, I play games about farming. Bridget got me the newest one for my birthday and Fat came with it. As for the name, I think it fits him well because...he's a cow...and...cows are fat.

But enough of the zoology lesson, let's get on to the "meat" of this post. I know I've been posting less frequently (or is it more frequently), but either way I apologize. I've just been super busy with...sitting around and...drooling on myself. You know, activities that just could not be interrupted. But much to the disappointment of most of you, I am alive and well. And to whoever ordered that hit on me, you should have spent a little more. I saw it coming. But good luck in the future.
