my mom emailed me for the first time ever today!  mind you, she used my dad’s email. if you know my mom, she doesn’t do computers. at all. she wouldn’t have her own email address if she didn’t use the computer. duh. shoot, it was quite the feat to teach her how to use a cellphone. so anyways, after about 3 email messages in our thread, i decided to gchat her. get some live conversation going. and here’s how it went: Read more »

hola. i’m not exactly sure why i feel the need to make a blog every couple years and then not keep up with them. blogging is a little less exciting for me nowadays when i don’t really have much going on. days are kinda routine: work, eat, play (sometimes), sleep. and it seems that twitter would be enough for me to keep people up to date with my goings on. yet, i still felt like i needed to make this blog. shrugs. i suppose maybe i just needed some project to keep me occupied for a couple days. let out some creative juices that i get every couple years.

oh! i think that vacation was a part of the reason for this. i wanted to post pictures. at least maybe this way, i’ll get around to it. it’s way over due. it might take me a while though, there are soooo many pictures to go through.

so let’s see how long i can keep this up.

hey look! i even got my jillm.net domain back. yay!

time for an update indeed! look everyone! i graduated! haha. but you all knew that didn’t you? i decided to particiapte in the giant commencement ceremony cause i figured i was only gonna do it once. it was long, but it was pretty cool. i liked how small our info group was. it kinda gets you noticed… or not.. cause we’re so small. haha. either way, it was cool.

check out our mentos picture!

i bought myself a new present with some graduation money. hehe. and with some of my friends already owning one, we like to geek out and have ds parties. oh yeah. btw, my brain age is 27 right now. lol.

the other night i went to the counting crows, goo goo dolls, and augustana show at the white river amphitheater. it was pretty cool. but what was not so cool was the traffic. it sucked bad. almost so bad that i would not want to see another show there. lol. but it’s a really nice place. and the weather was nice so it was even better. a big giant thank you goes out to david for inviting me! im glad that he discovered a new band that he likes. woot. anyone down for this?

have i ever mentioned that mowing our lawn sucks?? you know what else sucks? my car needs a new radiator. yuck.
