So I did two things of note today. Rode my bike (5 miles total) and I ate a banana. Right now I'm not sure which is making me feel worse. I've liked bananas from a young age but it seems that they give me bad stomach aches. I had one at work last week and I was fine. No ill effects. Today however it seems I'm back to feeling terrible after eating a banana. ::frown::It could be the bike ride

I'm ashamed to admit I haven't stopped to give Martin Luther King Jr. any special amount of thought on his holiday since I was in public school. I'm choosing to do that today. Maybe I'll try and read something about him, perhaps find out something I don't know.The thing that strikes me now though, is that he's an example of someone who succeeded because he was well spoken. I'm partial to well

So I've been told that the very first project using the federal stimulus money is the repaving of Main Rd. in Tiverton, RI. A few hundred feet that way ::points north::. They are resurfacing the road and rebuilding and resetting the curbstones and sidewalks. Whether this will stimulate the local economy or not, it needed doing. The road is in tough shape. I think tomorrow I'm going to try and

I don't like to call my self a skeptic. I like to think I'm an idealist, a dreamer, a brain stormer. When it comes to things like television, however, I'm a hardcore skeptic. Every new show looks dumb and stupid and silly and un-funny. Every now and then I decide to give a show a chance, and once in a while, it works out. Tonight I gave Craig Ferguson a chance. As much as I've become a fan of

Just caught up on Skins. It's been showing on BBC America. Also just found out that after season 2 they are basically shifting almost totally away from all the old characters. Its a bit strange. When I start to really enjoy a written show, I get very attached to the characters. Same thing with long series of books. Or just long books. I was sad when I finished the Chronicles of Narnia, Lord of

Details:Just finished the last episode of The History of Rock and Roll. Its a collection of interviews and clips cut into 10 episodes that I first watched in middle school music class. Funny how I remember things differently from back then. Of course it was taped by my music teacher off of the local PBS station, so I imagine a lot of the scenes with nudity and cursing were cut out back

Details:So today was Wednesday and that means the LnL meeting. Since its the end of the term there weren't any events but we still needed to pick the T-Shirt for this year. Well I'm happy to report that for the second year in a row my design was chosen. The year was a take off of Snakes on a Plane. You can check it out at the LnL Wiki. The tshirts will come in, in a few weeks.Big Picture:C-Term

Details:Today was Tuesday, that means Coffee House. I CCed again. Artist was Eric Hutchinson. He was pretty good. We had some trouble with the amp rack. Spooky feed back that persisted even when the levels on the mixer were down. I suspect its the cross overs but I don't have any real proof. Post Coffee House activities were a little subdued but that's ok, it was still fun. Chatted with Paul

When I was in fifth grade I started a handwritten journal. I wrote in it off and on again for several years and after a while I developed a format. Each entry would have two sections: Daily Details, and The Big Picture. This format came from the observation that my meatier posts tended to have those two basic elements in them. Details about what I did that day, things like "went to the bank,

yeah. I'm off the horse.I don't care about it anymore. Its just another thing I've messed up along the way. Anyway I've been told its nice out today. Lets see about that.

Did you really think I was going to post every day? PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.So today has been just fine. Though I found out (makes total sense in hind sight) that Corn Nuts® are fried. Deep Fried. So I cheated without realizing it. Oh well. Maybe next year I can go 100% anyway, since I it was unintentional, I'm not calling the whole thing so I'm sticking to it. Tomorrow morning is going to rough (

Well today was ever so slightly better than yesterday. No major stomach issues and less caffine withdrawl. But I did however stop by the campus center before work and it was no fun getting pizza and milk.But all is forgiven, its end of C-Term Day! YAY!

So I'm not big into being Catholic anymore but I decided it couldn't hurt to try a little Lentin Sacrifice this time around. So I went for a double dip this time: No deep fried foods, no soda. It almost sounds rediculous this this is worthy of Lent, but for me, its a big deal. I could certainly use 40 days with a lot less saturated fat and sugar.So how am I doing? Well as expected on the first

While I'm not big on feeling like I have to look a certain way, I can't say I'm happy with the growing flab around my stomach and my ever weakening ability to fit into my clothes. I'm fat. I always get mad at people who say that about themselves but its true.I watched a report on Frontline [PBS] about obesity. Right now the first thing most Doctors do is compute your Body Mass Index and then look

So XMAS shopping has been going pretty darn well. Of course on the off change Mary remembers about this blog I can't talk about specifics, but lets just say, I think she'll enjoy her gifts.Spent my first night in my new apart. On the air mattress. Its not bad, I think I'll enjoy living there.Prof. Labonte was down with my new MQP schedule, but of course he still implied that I was slacking, which

So long time, no post, isn't that the story of most blogs? Ok lets sum up.I'm moving back to Worcester (with Flanel no less) I was hired, trained and then quit at AAA in the road service department. MQP isn't done yet and won't be until D-Term. hmmm I was in the AYO 24 show, it was fun. hmmm, guess that's it.

So it my team has made some progress on our MQP. Its very close to the end of the summer and I don't know if we'll finish on time, but right now I'm not giving that a lot of thought. I'm thinking on where to go next, now that we have cleared some major road blocks. The fact that we have to play Lab Tag doesn't help, but I suppose it should be expected since the summer term is long over.It was a

Have you ever wanted to tell someone 'it'll be ok' so badly but you didn't, because that would be a lie? Because you knew nothing anyone could ever do would make it ok again?You just have to face the fact sometimes things happen and the end result is that things are not ok. It really is the helplessness that hurts the most.If I could do it, I would.NM, JM, MC, DC, RP, JS, EC, DC, HR.

I have been looking over my shoulder often for the last 16 hours. Why? because I was in the Wimbley theater at the BCA last night getting ready for the second act of Christopher Durang's Laughing Wild (starrring Christopher Durang) and I thought I heard my name being shouted from the balcony. BINGO!One guess people...that's right, Eric Mill, bwahhhhhhhhhhhhhhwn! With eveyone's favorite girl that

So I guess I forgot to do an entry last Thursday., Oh well. I'm sure it was all good in the hood that day. Today was fine too. I bowled a 110 and then some other stuff.blah blah blah

Not bad. First game was a 119. Second was a 100 even, the last game was a crumy 68 though. 40 showed, same as yesterday. I think we should try and move to the other lane. He keep smashing his right foot into the ball return. If we were in the left lane, there would be no ball return for him to smash his foot into. However, I show up early and 40 gets there a little late and in between that,

So here we are again. After four days off I venture back into the wild realm of bowling. And it shows. Not to mention the fact that I didn't sleep the night before. So as you could have guessed. I did really poorly. I don't even remeber any of my scores. So yeah. Here's hoping tomorrow will be better. As for right now. It is soooooooooooo nap time.

Well today is the day. May 31st. My first lease expires tonight at midnight. Mike has basically gotten all his stuff out. Its funny. I started moving my things out well before he did and I still have more stuff here than him. Though that's basically out of laziness. Some of the big things needed to stay, like the TV and the TV stand, for Mike to use. But the rest of my stuff is basically still

So I'm back in RI. Its weird. This really doesn't seem like a summer term. The fact that I'm still technically in the process of moving out of my apartment in Worcester. Then there's the whole staying in Worcester for the middle part of the week. Plus the weather has been much cooler than the typical summer term.I suppose this is a bigger issue with life. Humans, I believe, like separation. Like

Stealing an idea directly from Ego, "Set um up, and let um fall." - BTE [King of New Orleans]Today was a spectacular bowling day despite the continued abscence of Mr. 40. The first game was a wash. No 40 and no one else really, so I played a string by myself. The next game however, was a personal triumph. I stared off with three strikes. What? I have never done that beforeand man it was

So Day 2, nowhere as cool as Day 1. The only good thing about today's class was that my high score improved. It now sits at 117. But that's about it. And that was only because I hit a good groove for a little bit.So here's the deal. I show up a smidge before 10. No 40 yet. No big deal. I sign in, get my shoes go back to my lane and start entering in names. Me first then 40. A few minutes later a

So I made it to my bowling class today. Its being "instructed" by a short man who looks just like what my Dad would look like if he was a short, obviously athletic wrestling coach.So I'm waiting around near the shoe area and who walks in? Mike 40. Sweet. This bowling class is already awesome. He proceeds to edge my out of every game, but! I kept pace with him. I managed a strike in each game. (

So my new fond interest in the game of Poker has driven me to buy some decks of cards. Having the decks around has gotten me into the habbit of shuffling them (bridge style mostly) in my spare time. This is mainly because I have lots of nervous energy and I also have an active hands fixation. If I wasn't shuffling the cards I'd be destroying paper clips or something similar.Well last night my

So D-Term is good and over. It went...well it sucked. As usual. Someday I'll prolly be good at school. Anyway...I have a little under two weeks until I start officially working on my MQP. But of course TJ and I have gotten it well underway. We did a PQP over D-Term and we have a meeting in about 6 hours with Professor Labonte to show him what we have so far. Things are looking good. We're hoping

So woot. I got cast in two New Voices shows. I'll be playing Brian in Dean's Poetic License and Paul in Ben's Covolution. I couldn't be happier about this. I hope everyone else had the same or better luck getting the roles they wanted.anyway first real week of D-Term is coming up and damn I need to get some sleep.

First day of D-Term, not so bad. I start Intro to swimming tomorrow. I think I might actually get in the pool on Friday. Let's hope my EE professor is in tomorrow. Yeah, those kinds of things.

So now I'm back in Worcester. I drove in what I would call the worst winter-related driving conditions of my life. Stuck behind three different sets of plows. But we (mary and I) made it back with no incidents or really any close calls. Sure there was some luck, but mostly really slow driving did the trick.Getting myself ready for D-Term. Just the fact that its not C-Term should help. So yeah,

So I've gotten myself all situated at home. For now. Its freezing in this room. I made sure the values on the radiator were open so I guess my parents turned off the heat when they went to bed. Hopefully I can get by on body heat tonight. I suppose that's a little better than the radiator. It tends to get very hot and then very cold if its turned down at all.C-Term is over, once again I made a

I know it will.Looking foreward to relaxing at home next week. Getting

C-Term is not going well. I'm just over two weeks into the term, which means only 5 weeks left. Time to do this.

First post of C-Term. Today I dropped Physics III. Some of you may remeber I did that same thing A Term. I was also sick last week and missed the first day of classes (also something I did last A-Term.) That was my best term in years, so I guess I'm trying to repeat it. I swapped out of P3 to take BioDiversity to get my last basic science course done with. After this afternoons lecture I

First post of 2005. Lets hope I start a good trend. Right now its Monday. This means that I start C-Term at WPI in 4 days. (I'm counting today because hell, its only 8am.) Anyway. I intend for this series of posts to chronicle how I do this coming term. Maybe it will help with my motivational problem. As some of you may be aware, I'm by no means a good student, and I've run into some pretty

Ironic twist of fate. Tonight was the first night in a while that I tried my best to get to bed on time. I took my sleeping suplement early and around midnight I was getting sleepy, so I said goodnight to Mary and went to bed. So guess what, I'm awake right now, why? Not because I've been tossing and turning for the last hour. no I've only been doing that for the last 20 minutes, why? cause

Man, my sleep cycle has been totally shifted. I sleep unlike 3pm every day. This totally blows. I have finals this week and its do or die in terms of my staying at WPI. So yeah jogging is definitly nixed for a while. I dunno. This break will be nice. Give me a chance to get things back in order. I need to sit down and set up some goals. Long term and short term. I mean really short term:

It was a very Mary weekend indeed. The Hunger concert was excellent (good job hunny). And the yet to be named (again) Improv troup was excellent (also). Had the first gathering of the cover band last night. Tentativly called "The Makeout Room" after the sketchy looking basement room we're rehearsing in. It was just Me, Elia, and Gilmore. Now its Laundry time. (and yes no jogging today. Maybe

Well 17 minutes of jogging isn't bad. Though I need to work on the route. I went down williams towards the park, but then I chicked out and thought heading towards WPI would be "safer" so I went down West and of course had to stop at the light. Then up West to WPI, the up-hill part wasn't too bad, one lap around the quad then back again. I still think getting the treadmil in my apart would be

There was no jogging today, nor shall there be any jogging tomorrow. At least not in the early morning. I have school issues that simply have to take priority. Speaking of school. My two exams went well today. The Semi exam was ok, the 2801 exam was a cake walk. Everyone cross your fingers and hope my homework isn't due tomorrow. I did 8/10 problems so even if it is due tomorrow it

Ok so the plans to jog today got canned. BUT before you ney say, I have good reason. I over did it yesterday and now my calves hurt. Not only that but because my ankles don't work right after I "over do it" my feet make that annoying flopping sound when I walk. Tomorrow! there is always tomorrow. ECE test sucked. Really badly. so yeah this Monday has been "splendid."

Jogging Day 1 So today I decided to start a jogging regimen. It seems I also decided to forget everything I used to do on my treatmill at home. I used to start off with 2 minutes of nice slow walking. Then 2 minutes of brisk pace walking. 4 minutes of jogging and anyway from 2 to 4 minutes of running. (4 was always the goal, 2 was more often then not what I did.) Then reverse it. So 4 minute

I love being told to "work slow" and "act busy" because there is literally nowork to do. I almost feel bad because since they've hired me, the work has gottenscarce. I wonder if Human Resources just stuck me here because the liked me. (Iworked at AA two years before in the same department.)Any this job makes me fallasleep.

Caffine addiction. I've had a splitting headache all day and I couldn't figure out why. Well it seems that after two weeks of drinking two sodas a day at work has gotten me hooked, and since today is Sunday and I need all the sleep I can get..I didn't have any today. Maybe I can cut back...that's of course if I can get to sleep.

So I went home sick from work today :( I'm not sad that I'm missing work but I'm sad that I had to sit in the car all the way there then drive all the way home. Not to mention the money that I'm not making. But I feel way better now. So you may have guessed that I got a job. I bit the bullet and went back to AAA. That's right kids, third summer at that hell hole. But again I shouldn't complain

so nothing better about today. Well except that I got a lot of data off the dying drive. Not everything though. And I'm no closer to having a job. But at least I'm heading off to Maine for the weekend tomorrow.

Today was decently depressing. Duckbox came back for a while and is now dead again, and my first attempt to get the data off the drive has failed. On top of all that, finding a job didn't go well today. Better luck tomorrow? I hope so.

Ok so my blog is finally back. Though duckbox (my main computer) is suffering from what looks like a hard drive failure. For those who aren't comptuer nerds, that means windows and all my files are gone. But I'm holding out hope that I can fix this. In the meantime. I have a great weekend up at my grandmother's house in northern newyork state. Haven't been up there in years. This weekend I'm

We're back at it this summer. Brian's mom is letting us (Brian and myself) use the old research center for our studio (www.sidenotestudios.com) and so we decided, why not also use it as a practice space. Pictures of said space can be found in the pictures section of my website: http://mike.coheety.com/pictures.php so yeah we've decided to learn some crowd pleasing covers this summer. Artists

So I'm back to my old habbit of not going to bed...ever... I have a 9am class tomorrow and I just wasted my chance to get a decent nights sleep. ::frown:: upside...I saw Kill Bill Vol 2 tonight. I'll refrain from commenting. (It was good!) played a whole bunch of squash with Jay. He kicked my ass but I got plenty of exercise..in fact my ankles are killing me. I also watched him play chess

Oh man... there has been soooooo much LnL to do in the last couple days... and lately I've been doing too much of it. Like last night. I got back so late that I didn't get up until 1pm. Which totally fucked over my working with my IQP group, and now they've scheduled something for Sunday night. They aren't going to like the fact that I can't make it then. Though it wouldn't have been so bad if I

So Eric Mill laughing is worth like $100...seriously.... on that note, the opening night of New Voices was excellent. I was moved to laugh several times, which by my standards ranks very highly. Tomorrow is my show. And yes I'm nervous....now when I say "my show" I mean the one I'm in. Freshman year there was some confusion, people thought I wrote the show I was talking about...no indeed.

SOOOO I helped all day with the LnL table at the open house. It was decent. we got a few names on the list and got a few people interested in LnL. And I wasn't run over by some speeding parent. Sorry kids no 90210 episodes today.

So the Bruins didn't win the game... this makes me a little annoyed... I mean it was a tie, 0-0 so its not that I'm bitter cause they lost...but I dunno. The last game seemed way more fulfilling. Anyway, it was nice to out have a good time for free. It was real nice of Mike to give me all those tickets...even though he couldn't go with us.

Ok so yesterday and today were sunshine days. I know that sounds lame as hell but what I mean is...the sun was out and shining, like it should in Spring. But now it's cold... That string of nice days we had was so ever taunting. Mike and I fnished the physics homework last night. I don't care what you guys think, I'm proud of myself.

So Ady, my ex-girlfriend was at WPI today for a SWE (Society of Women Engineers) event.. She e-mailed me ahead of time to see if I wanted to hang out with her for a little bit during lunch. In the past I've turned down spending time with her on the basis that maybe Mary would get upset. That's totally reasonable I think. Current girlfriend obviously takes precidence over former. But that was a

Well well. Bad news. Mike Mendes' brother Jared was killed in a car accident Sunday. Just rediculous....I can't make it home for the Funeral. Sorry Mike. Today was the first day of D Term. I feel good about how I've done so far. I finished my Stat homework and I already turned in the lab questions. I studied chapter 1 for a while. I also started the reading for EE.

Things that piss me off today: 1. Clever sports headlines that play upon the names of the teams invovled. So I saw Kill Bill Vol.1 again tonight. WPI Movie of the week. Mmmmm bloddy...the girl next to me put her coat on and left in a huff about 45mins in. (The scene she just watched was a tad offensive) She looked like she was twelve. That dude most certainly should NOT have brought her to

So today today. Tofe's 21's birthday. He asked a whole ton of people to go.....only six did. But in his post dinner e-mail he said it was prolly better that way.I was glad I went. I know tofe would have come to my surprise party if he could. His friends were a little too immature for my liking, but after everything is said and done I think that're nice people. My living situation is pretty well

Just got my housing number. 511. I dunno it seems kinda high. I mean I won't lie. I really want to live with Mike on that other apartment...and I would feel bad about shaming Dave into moving. I guess its up to him. I really hope when this is over it doesn't have any lasting impact on my friendship with Dave. He's a good guy. Oh yeah and I totally missed the culminating point of that 90210

SOOOOOO to start of this lovely day. I WAS SUNNY!. So that wasn't bad. Until I got out the door..."Why are there cars everwhere? " Oh yeah OPEN HOUSE. I always know they are coming, but I always forget and from some reason they fill me with rage. The parents, I find the Dads in particular, think they can park whereever they want (mostly true) and they can drive as fasts and as recklass as they

So day two of my new accountability chart...man its not going wel. I don't think there's any catagory that I can check off as having done. Maybe I should add a catagory for "made housing options for next year more confusing! I'm finding it hard to get enough information out of people while not totally alienating them. On the one hand I'm losing sleep over the uncertainty related to where I'm

So it's ThanksGiving Eve....ooooooo..... um yeah. I had a real nice conversation with my mom. See I told you this year was about my family. I expressed my idea that Christmas should be a legal holiday and that it should be called "Giving Day." Won't happen. Humans hate change, and why change the best Holiday ever? Poor Mary. She wanted to get her car inspected today and bee a good little

Check the time out... then think about the peice of reheated steak I just ate. Being odd is soooo tastie. And don't no one bitch about my eating habbits because soon it will be Thanks Giving, or as I like to call it Thank-G Day. Anyway. I think I should try and write 4 days in a row in this thing... I think that should be a requirment. Like when you start one of these, it shouldn't post anything

The Red Sox were so close this time. I have to admit that it's the first time in many many years that I've paid this much attention to them. I won't deny that I'm sort of a fairweather fan. I mean I've always been a Sox fan and I always will, but like I mentioned. I usually don't pay attention. But this time I really wanted them to win. I wanted them to get into the World Series and duke it

Why don't I just go o bed? It's late, I'm tired. (Even as the result of my hand sleep aid) And yet I'm here typing entries in this peice of crap. Dude I have too many online journals anyway. I have my webpage, this thing, the fake one, I have one at h2g2.com and one at www.slashdot.com I almost feel like I'm eating up hard drive space somewhere I shouldn't. Oh well. Tomorrow is another day.

I have finally given up my disdain for blogs. Though I want it noted that I still hate the word, specifically the way it sounds. I realized that I don't have to write entries in my blog like it was a journal. I can update people on things concerning me through my website. This, however, I can use to record my thoughts. I have this idea that I want to be a writer and it wasn't until someone
