From Dan's blog (he beat me to the update-writing punch): Our poor cat has been through a lot in the last 48 hours. Like all of these sorts of stories go, it was supposed to be a regular vet checkup. But after bringing him into the Astoria Vet...

I <3 DJ BTNS

Tomorrow....It Begins

2008-04-19T22:59:51Z

Tomorrow, I start a massive apartment cleaning. It's going to be a long process and it will probably suck, but it's so very necessary. I'll be updating throughout....probably because I will be venting over the endless mess. The neat freak withi...

2008-04-16T03:11:17Z

Just finished the last episode of Skins Series 2....the last episode for the current cast..... Although the characters had proper send-offs at the end of this past series, I will miss their antics - the stories were great and their acting was in...
