It is likely unnecessary to note that Kristin and I had a great time in Hawaii. The first week we were on Oahu, staying in a house with a bunch of people, doing group things, going to a wedding. Theft is rampant in Hawaii, we were on beeches a lot, and being in a group [...]
Listen to this description of the 1979 sensitive college student, penned by a man who had just bought a moped: Occasionally crashing my Puch and throwing myself on the ground crying. Listening to My Aim is True and drinking cheap chianti as fast as I can so I can stick a candle in it to [...]
Hello, everyone. Kristin and I are back from Hawaii. I’ve got a series of follow-up posts (with pictures) planned, so I’m not going to say much about it here. But while we were there, we spent all of one day hiking to the top of Mauna Kea. The Onion has, of course, already provided a [...]
Well, tomorrow Kristin and I leave for Hawaii for two weeks. We’re going for her old roommate’s wedding, and then staying a while to see the place (and climb mountains). It’s going to be great, but I’m a little stressed out about it right now. We are staying on Oahu for the first week, and [...]
Hey guys. The songs in between “What Now” (#43) and this one are mostly really short ideas – so you’re not missing much. You may see a few of them pop up here – I apparently won’t be keeping stuff in sequence much. Oh well. Here’s a new one. Two Sides (C) 2008 Matthew Good [...]
I broke down and decided to start twittering. I’ll be looking into ways to coordinate all my “status”-type apps, so if anyone has any suggestions for a WinXP/Windows Mobile 5 user who prefers desktop apps to webapps for this sort of thing, let me know. In the mean time, fellow twitterers who like me can [...]
It’s about that time again, where I recap the past few weeks of my life in a hurried and cursory manner, but this time, I’ve got PICTURES. First up, Chase (college roomie) and Caitlin (college buddy) got hitched in Greenville. [click to see the full album] As you will note, the wedding was otherwise well-photographed, [...]
I just did a quick and dirty redesign of the blog to make it match the pedalboy.net home page. Its alright, I guess. Allison, I changed the color of the text a little and cleaned up some details here and there, so hopefully this is easier to read. If anyone notices anything that’s not working [...]
The Russian Army apparently held a beauty contest for the women soldiers. There are so many confused thoughts running through my mind right now, I can’t pick which one to make a joke about… More pictures, yet oddly, no more explanation at EnglishRussia.com, including shots of girls in makeup and camo with large automatic weaponry, [...]
I finally got the camera situation wrapped up. For a number of rather boring reasons, it took a little while longer than expected (and a return or two) to get everything firmed up, but Kristin and I are now the proud owners of a really sweet Nikon d200 with a 18-200mm VR Nikon lens. This [...]
