I went to see the locally written/produced/directed play “Dorothy in Oz” last night! Presented by the Rage of the Stage Players, “Dorothy in Oz” is a retelling of “The Wizard of Oz” set in a modern day (?) mental institution. The plot, as is usual with productions from the Rage of the Stage Players, is [...]

If you’ve wondered where I’ve been, I’ve been here, sitting in my room in Pittsburgh, doing research for $8/hr and basically trying to scrape by.

Today was my last day at one of my part-time, in-school jobs. I accomplished a lot there, met some interesting people, and made a good friend.
I called, or tried to call, all of my Seattle folks last night. I really miss all of them!

Saw an Amish buggy
A big, [...]

So you may have noticed I added a feature where all of the items I bookmark on delicious are added here. Yeah, that’s because it gives you an idea of what I’ve been doing – mostly school work!
I’m moving next week – stuff in storage, me and the cats still [...]
A Night Out

Tonight, I volunteered for Planned Parenthood of Western Pennsylvania at Pride. I helped hand out condoms and information for STD testing. Afterwards, the friends I was volunteering with wanted to go out to dinner, so we went to Yokoso. It was so much fun! The chef cooks right at the table, lighting things on fire, [...]
