The Post That is No More

I seriously thought about not writing about the article that was written about the condos that are being built next door. I watched the clip and read the article making sure they didn’t mention street names or anything that might indicate where exactly in the neighborhood the development is at. So with nothing mentioned but [...]

Cat Stevens…I Love Cat Stevens!

Besides Harry Potter, P also made me a mix CD for my birthday. Back when were just coworkers and friends, he created RA soundtracks and made copies for the entire staff. Now that we’re dating, I get my own personal collection. I loved his mixes then, and I love them even more [...]

Spring Break Part II: Fresh Air, Orridians and the Weekend That Was My Birthday

Well, folks, I’ve just returned from up north (L-town to be more precise) where I spent the first half of my second spring break. The extended weekend became four and a half days of enjoying unpolluted, crisp air, sunshine, reunions, delicious dinners, Harry Potter and the general lounging around that comes with not having [...]

Who Would Have Guessed

I’m involved in what, I have been told, is referred to as March Madness. Apparently this men’s NCAA basketball tournament is a really big deal. People get really excited about it. I have participated in this annual rite of spring one other time in my life; I was in the 6th grade. [...]

Spring Break Part I: Baking Cookies, Visiting Family, and the Best Chile Rellenos in Denver

One of the perks of working at an organization that runs after school programs is that the employees get to enjoy (to some extent) the same vacations as the students. Because my spring break isn’t the same as P’s (or anybody I else I know, for that matter), I get to partake in spring break [...]

Welcome to the World O’ Trout.

I’m Trout, and I’ll be your host at this blog. Guest bloggers will occasionally stop by to hassle, harrass, and harangue the general readership. Enjoy.

Because I Can’t End the Night Like That

While all of you should feel much better now that I can better protect myself in the big city, I would rather end the night on a different note.
So instead, you are going to get a good bit of randomness thrown into the mix. When I hear these songs (depending where I am) I have [...]

Because a Sawed-Off Shotgun is Kind of Illegal

It has been brought to my attention over the last couple of days that numerous people who are very near and dear to my heart are worried about me living alone in Denver.
Rest (a little more) assured, the pepper spray has been ordered and it’s in the mail. In 3-5 business days I will have [...]

18 Going On 23

I don’t necessarily want to feel or be 18 again. That time in my life was fun and all, but really I like having my own place, not having to worry about homework or my roommate and her WyoTech boyfriend who practically lived with us…in our dorm room. I now have a car, albeit, [...]

My Little Reminder

Well, folks, I don’t think the post that I mentioned previously will ever be up to the standard that I want it to be. At the same time, it feels wrong not to write about it. What happened a couple weeks ago is exactly what I was told at one of my interviews [...]
