Oh My
Someone remind me not to try this again. Particularly with an assignment that has a question requiring me to watch a music video from the Tragically Hip.
Seriously, a terrible band. Especially when you gotta listen to them all the time at work. Like, the same 4 songs over and over.
It’s now almost 3am. Coffee is wearing off even though I had something like 6 cups total. What can I say, I...

The Reason I Like Geography Assignments
Lower standards.
Seriously, it’s hilarious. I pass something in that isn’t eloquent sounding, nor is all the syntax proper, and yet I get an ‘A’.
I mean sure, there are science majors in the class and we have to account for them somehow (oh burn) but can we at least agree to a certain university-like standard?
Why can’t the history faculty have similar standards?

For Those of You in North America
I’m going to be practically main-lining caffeine tonight. So you can expect posts pretty much all though the night.
I may regret this in the morning.

I can follow my own secondary blog? How does that even make sense?

Thanks Everybody
Your patience was wonderful. Hopefully my posting can get back on track.
I needed to start something new, so I started up a new blog. Some of you may get invites for the admin of that page.
Stay tuned.

Short Fiction #4
I had planned to steal you away from him during our prom. I knew who he was, and I didn’t particularly like him. But did I ever like you.
I had it all planned out. I’d wait for him to leave you during one of the slow dances like he had so many times before. Then I’d walk up and offer you a dance. You hadn’t refused me other times, so I knew you wouldn’t hesitate....

Going to Say it Now
Text posts are probably going to be much less involved for the next little while. I may post a couple more short fiction pieces, but otherwise I can’t promise much.
I’ve got some things I need to work out.

The Brave Face is Back On
Self inflicted this time.
ktp-deactivated20110320 asked: I like your Tumblr but,
WHERE IS THE ZAZZ?
I demand zazz, and I demand it now.
[That's zazz with 3 Z's (as per agreed)]

Okay, I Lied
My short fiction posts aren’t completely fiction. Up to now they have been based on my own experiences.
That being said, they don’t follow the proper course of events exactly.
post script: It’s not like this little factoid caught anyone off guard.

Short Fiction #3
She told me she liked me. Three years after the fact.
She said it in passing, as if it wouldn’t have mattered to me at all. Apparently she had a crazy crush on me all through high school.
I almost stood up and walked away. Only my ‘nice guy’ instinct held me there.
All through high school I watched her. I watched her move from my friends, to the guys I never liked, to the guy...
biancaj90-deactivated20110408 asked: Hey Daniel
You posts make you sound like such a puppy dog.
What I am wondering is, have you been hurt?
It sounds to me like what you really need is the love of a good woman in your life. Am I right?
Any prospects? As a follower (and a romantic myself) I hope that things are looking up for you.

You've All Seen it
That brave face that a lot of guys will put on.
That face that is always smiling and never reveals anything past the surface. It’s that face that gets us in trouble. It gets us hurt. It keeps us from revealing who we are.
Me? I’m good at using that face.
I use it all the time. In class, at church, with friends, everywhere. It’s even come to the point where I use it online.
I...

Why Christians Are Having Better Sex Than You →
I found this on the same blog as the Gentleman’s Guide for the 21st Century.
“Consider the possibility that this particular someone is the only someone you were ever supposed to have sex with. You trust them with all your heart, with every ounce and fiber of your very being. It’s fearless, unconditional love…. What would sex be like then if we were enveloped in trust...

Short Fiction #2
Me: Wait, why did she suddenly unfriend me?
Him: You were always turning down her advances.
Me: What?
Him: She had been after you for forever.
Me: She was with one of my best friends! And I saw no advances from her.
Him: Exactly.
Me: Why didn't someone think to tell me?
Him: Because everyone else saw it as obvious.
Me: What?
Him: *head shake* That's harsh dude.

Just a Note
My short fiction pieces are indeed fiction.
The main character is going to be the same one each time, though the individual episodes are not going to be connected to any of the others.
Thanks.

Don't hate on the military if you're ignorant of...
seeipair:
the military isn’t all that bad. Stop looking at them with a one sided view.
To those hating on the military online: Appreciate the irony that it was the American military that invented the internet.

Short Fiction #1
We had been sitting for a few minutes when you started it up again. Asking why you always fall for such jerks, why can’t you just find a nice guy.
I decided I couldn’t take it anymore. This was not the first time we had had this discussion and I wasn’t about to let you start it all over again in a couple months from now. So, I coughed politely and pointed to my self.
You looked...
