Randomelle Randomitis


The man on the far left gave me his Harley hat, because he thought it was tragic that I ride a Harley and don't have a Harley hat. Next is Daphanie(Glenn's wife), Glenn, Jenne, Tony(who was dancing up a storm), and me laughing hysterically at this whole mad situation. See Yahoo for a pic of Tony and his woman. They were so funny I almost peed my pants.

Glenn...one of the funniest men I have ever met.


This is Glenn. This is Glenn sneering. He thinks that I own a Harley and Jenne rides in my sidecar. He thinks we are going to ride our Harley's together when the weather gets nice.

Agent: 'I think Sosa will be traded'

If only I could be so lucky. Sosa is one player that I have never liked, not only because he is on the rival team as my beloved Cardinals, but I also believe he is a cry baby and an all around "puke". I am really disgusted by his arrogant "hop" on home plate when he hits a home run. My distaste for Sosa was solidified when he was found to have a corked bat and he "didn't" know about it. I would love it if Sosa was traded away from the Cubs. It would make my love for Chicago grow. Please...get him out of this city.

Scientifically IMPOSSIBLE

MIAMI - Wade Jones of North Carolina says he snared a plastic cup from which Elvis Presley drank at a concert in 1977 and kept the cup and the water for 27 years before selling the remaining few tablespoons of water on eBay.

Is it anyone else opinion that this water would have evaporated over 27 years? I know that when there is a little bit of water left in a cup on my counter, it evaporates and I have a dry cup over a few days. This is one of the sketchiest stories I have heard since the Virgin Mary's grilled cheese being sold on e-bay.

Sheddie turns 23


Me with the birthday boy Sheddie Elephante right before we headed to Pancheros and met Carrie Schit. Yes, this girl announced to everyone that her last name was Schit before it got changed to Schmidt. She was a funny funny girl.

Most interesting post ever

Today when I checked twotermslater as a daily ritual to keep up on my medicine and ethics, I was suprised by an incredibly thought provoking post, entitled Snip Snip. It sets forth the facts that in a Kenyan study it was found that men with uncircumcised penises may be at a higher risk for contracting HIV than males that have undergone the knife. Aaron goes on to explain how this is medically possible. As a health care professional and someone who would like to go to Africa sometime and work with the growing AIDS problems, I found this espically interesting.

READ THE BLOG POST, YOU WON'T REGRET IT!

He may be balding, but he's got skills

I have always been a fan of the St. Charles, Iowa native, Greg Brunner. He plays with more heart than most other players. He came though big in tonight's Iowa vs Illini game with 2 points right before the buzzer to send the Hawks into overtime. All I can say is that the #24 ranked Iowa Hawkeyes put up a much better fight against the #1 ranked Illini than anyone expected. The Illini just barely survived Alford and the Iowa Hawkeyes.

Weekend Escipade

This weekend I will be headed to IC for a good night out on the town to celebrate Sheddie Elephante's birthday. Pics are sure to follow. Can't wait!

Rehashing...the best part of going out.


It's the morning after wreckage. Relaxing.

We heart the burrito!


Zim and Megs on the burrito...yes, it's still in use.

I love salt free saltines


Zimlatta eatting the crackers when we got back to my place. She was dipping salt-free saltines in milk...who does that?

Where in the world have I been?

Sorry I haven't blogged in almost a week. Last Friday, I left for the frozen tundra known as northwest Iowa. My mom and I visited my grandparents and had a great time. There were many memorable moments, including:

*my grandpa purposely ramming the back of my mom's wheelchair with his motorized scooter in Wal-Mart..it was hilarious

*the Green Hornet leaving...very sad

*my grandpa dropping the f-bomb like it was his business

*eatting Panchero's TWICE

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow...


This is my backyard after a foot of snow fell in Chicago last night. I really want to play in it, but have no one to play with!

Ugliest Car of 2005

Despite the revamped 2005 Ford Mustang getting numerous high rankings, I find it to be one of the ugliest cars of 2005. The body does not mesh well together. The front and back end are old school while the thorax of the auto is from the 2004 version. The front end alone looks like it will eat everything infront of it, while motoring down the road. I have included a link, so you can view what it looks like. However, I warn you, they are much uglier in person. So get to your local Ford dealership and vomit on their ugliness.

On Iowa, GO HAWKS!

The hawks pulled off an amazing win today...to bad I missed the end, because I was at work.

As this reporter writes, it may have been the best ending to a bowl game...ever!

We don't waste the pretty


Megan, Jenne, and Me at Hawkeye's for New Years Eve. 2004 went out the door and 2005 came blowing in.

very random first blog entry of 2005

I can hardly believe that it has already been 5 years since the big Y2K scare...and who would think that we are all still here on Earth and alive?

2004 was a very good year for me and brought about a lot of changes in my life. I graduated school, got my first real job, moved to a new city all by myself...the list goes on and on...

I just wanted to say thank you to everyone that stood by me in 2004. I am very thankful for my friends and family that were super supportive in the less smooth parts of the year.

I am happy to report that I have no regrets carrying over into the new year...just hopes for more good times.

I resolve to treat myself better, read more, and worry less about things that don't matter in the long run.

I wish the best for everyone in 2005...it's your year...conquer it.
