I’ve just upgraded to the latest stable version of WordPress so things will be under construction until I get them all fixed back up.

I put in another seven miles this afternoon though I almost didn’t even head out for a run. The power was out in all of South Austin and as such, the traffic signals were haywire. Without police at major intersections, it took me about an hour to get home from work. It was a good [...]

The debt has arrived. I have officially been approved for my first student loan and the first dispursement is estimated to be July 23 of this year. AES Success actually approved it yesterday and I didn’t think to log in and check my status because I hadn’t received any email notification to do so. However, [...]

Man it’s getting really hot out there. I was sweating like a whore in church, but at least I put in the distance I set out to do. I tried really hard to give up around the 4.5 mile mark but I pushed on to finish the afternoon off with a 7 miler. I had [...]

With the help of the Magpie RSS parser, I have come up with a very hacked way of displaying the latest headlines from some of the MBA Blogs I read. I’m considering expanding this project because I think it is something others would be interested in. Many of you probably have RSS aggregators already set [...]

I think it might be time to start cross-training and getting out of the heat. I have never really run well in hot weather and today was just a reminder. I was zapped after only 3 miles but managed to slog out 1 more. Again I cut a 7 miler short by 3 miles. I’m [...]

I called the IKEA main office today and got transferred about 6 times but I finally found the answer I was looking for. A customer service representative in the Conshohocken store helped me out. An outside delivery company handles all of IKEA’s business and the charge is $59 to Center City and includes up to [...]

I’m back from my trip after a nice easy drive this afternoon. On my way over there yesterday, I stopped by IKEA to check out some of the furniture I saw on the website. I was happy with most everything I’d seen online. However, this location is going through some growing pains and they were [...]

The plot of this movie is rather transparent. A lot of the little details were emphasized a bit too much and it was easy to remember the emphasis and tie them into what would happen. Overall it was decent but Denzel certainly carries the cast. On a side note, it was funny how Legally Blonde [...]

Mark organized a small get together of HBS admits from Austin and invited me along. We met up at Trudy’s South location for a few beers and some good Tex-Mex. Jie was also there and it was really nice to meet them both for the first time. Over drinks and dinner we shared the pains [...]
