Thanksgiving in Irvine

November 30, 2003

I’ve traditionally spent Thanksgiving at my mom’s house in Tempe, so there are a few things I’ve grown used to over the years. There was never any question that I would eat unquantifiable amounts of gravy and stuffing and that Josh would come over and eat on the order of hundreds of those little white [...]

My List o’ Thanks

I am thankful for turkey and inordinate amounts of stuffing and gravy. I am thankful for having a loving family and a really dumb dog. I am thankful for having Ashwini, Pejman, and Vivian in Los Angeles to share the graduate school experience. I am thankful for Pejman, his half of the payment for Direct [...]

Well, every time I claim to have seen the most ridiculous item in the world, I come across something even more ridiculous. Today is no exception. I bought this card for Jen a few weeks ago and was waiting for the perfect opportunity to share it with everyone. Cute dog, I suppose. Not sure how [...]

Brief Friday Night Recap

November 22, 2003

0 Comments

The initial plan Friday night was for the Carmichael lab (or the “McArthur” lab as Ashwini calls it) to spend an exciting evening in Santa Monica, eating and drinking at the finest of restaurants, building group unity and promoting personal growth through active dialogue. You know, the usual Friday night stuff. We expected a fairly [...]

Our friend Jodi, who you might remember from such New York adventures as the one she’s in right now, sent me a very odd email yesterday. A portion of the email read as follows “JOHN! I’ve met this guy named Goral from Slovakia who totally reminds me of you… except, of course, his name is [...]

New Orleans Reloaded

A few interesting things I noticed while organizing my photo album: 1. The pictures below present a similar scenario. Brian/Josh is brandishing his mysterious stick next to Ashley’s bed as I prepare to guard against one of many vicious blows. What I can’t seem to figure out is why Brian/Josh is wearing a different outfit [...]

Accessing the Internet wasn’t as easy as the Society for Neuroscience had promised, so my official New Orleans recap is coming at end of the experience as opposed to the periodic updates that I had hoped to make. I apologize for this delay, but only out of formality, as I am the poor soul who [...]

I want you to hit me as hard as you can.

Brian/Josh gave me the pictures from New Orleans, so I’ll have those posted along with my thoughts Monday night. * Ridiculous Item of the Day: This conversation I had with Jen C. tonight. Jen: What movie is the Robert Paulson quote from?John: Oh come on, you know this!Jen: Give me a hint!John: There is a [...]

Nothing a quick format won’t fix!

If there is one thing my friendship with Brandon and Pejman has taught me over the years, it’s that there is no problem in the world that can’t be fixed with a nice format of your C drive. Car problems? Format. Not doing well in Biochemistry class? Format. Erectile dysfunction? Format. It’s really quite an [...]

I’m currently in New Orleans attending the Society for Neuroscience Conference, so I’ve been unable to update my journal or website since last Thursday. Brian/Josh was able to get us online today, so hopefully I’ll have some time to post a little something tonight.
