Umm, this might be more worth a t-shirt and some stickers than Y2K

Moving

By Brad on

I’m moving. I am getting a new apartment across town in about a week. I’ve never had my own place before so it should be different and hopefully exciting. I’ll be able to put things where I want, arrange things how I want, and pick up stuff when I want. Which could all be a dangerous thing. I’m going to have to get better at policing myself about stuff like picking up things, putting things away, and cleaning up stuff. I think I can do it.

Another thing this will be is expensive. I’m taking on about $120 more in rent each month, plus I’m paying all of the bills, where I split them with Shannon before. So that part will be interesting as well. I’ll be adjusting some of my spending habits in a serious way. I’ve already found a cheaper internet plan, and I cut back cable to just the basic, basic channel lineup. I might even drop that since most of those channels are home shopping and Jesus TV anyways.

Because of the increase in expenses and no increase in income, Breathingfire.com will be moving as well. The site is moving to a new server that is much cheaper for me. I’ve already moved my other websites over there with moderate success. I’m hoping that by this time Monday (at least) you won’t even know there was a change. There’s just a lot of stuff to move so things might be down for a little bit, but hopefully not long. Update: Should be good now.

When I get the new place I might post some pics. I got a new Flickr account too, and I’ll try to work that into this site as soon as I can.

Barack Obama Fathers Day speech

By Brad on

"You're SUPPOSED to graduate the 8th grade!" Any candidate who quotes Chris Rock in a respectable way — in a church — gets my vote.

I’m alive, and much sleeker

By Brad on

Thanks to all of you who were worried that I died in the storm. It’s taking me a little while to answer all the emails, but I promise, I’ll get to each and every one of them.

Wait, there were none. Everyone hates me.

Just kidding, not EVERYONE hates me. Right?

It\'s all gone (almost)Anyways, I got a new haircut and Ed twittered that I should show pics. Fine, here it is. It’s a self pic, so I look like a freak.

A lot of people expect me to be conscious of my hair loss. I am conscious of it, but it really doesn’t bother me. It’s the least of my problems in life. I’m seriously just glad to at least have most of my hair!

Even the barber lady was weird about it:

Brad: I’d like it clipped all over

Barber: Ok, what number?

Brad: I don’t know, I’ve never done this before.

Barber: Ok, we can start with a 4 on the side and see how that looks, ok?

Bye hairBZZZZZZZ - Looks fine.

Barber: Want me to just clip it over a comb on the top?

Brad: No, I’m not trying to hide anything. Just do the whole thing.

Barber: Are you sure? You won’t be able to do anything with it.

Brad: Yeah, that’s great. Whole thing.

Barber: Ok….

BZZZZZZ - Turns me toward mirror

Barber: Ok, there you go. The whole thing with a 4.

Brad: Thanks…

I like it and she thought I was crazy. Am I crazy?

Live-blogging the storm

By Brad on

There’s a huge storm coming through our area right now, so I thought I would live-blog it! Well, I probably won’t do much unless things get bad, but I wanted to test this(posting from my phone) out anyways.

There’s more coming in the next 3-4 hours, so if I never post again, I probably died from lightning or being thrown into Lake Michigan by a tornado.
