I was at the baseball game the other day. There was a foul ball hit on the ground and one of the ladies who catches and gives the balls to fans came over gave me the ball. Everyone gave a light golf clap. A, “good for him” clap. It was the most awkward 2 seconds [...]

Hotwheelz the Irresistible – July 30, 2009
November 3, 2009Girls don’t usually hit on me. And by usually I mean almost never. And by almost never, I mean there was only that one time in high school. I don’t know what it is. Maybe it’s because I always look like I want to murder someone. I can’t help it; I look worse if I [...]

Interstate Independence – July 16, 2009
November 3, 2009“You need to be realistic.” People always tell me that when I talk about transferring to a school outside of San Diego. Every time it pisses me off. They keep listing the reasons why I can’t live alone in another city, like that I need 24 hour nursing assistance and what if one of them [...]

Lesbians, Douchebags, and More Social Anxiety – July 10, 2009
November 3, 2009The only new people I’ve met recently were a girl and a guy in the same class as me. We had a research paper due at the end of the semester, so I started a Facebook group figuring everyone in the class could share articles. Truthfully, I just wanted people to do all the research [...]

Speechless – July 2, 2009
November 3, 2009“Whose tits do you like better, mine or his?” She thrust her chest forward while pulling her shoulder blades together. It was an easy question, really. Whenever a girl asks you to choose between her boobs and your guy friend’s man pecs, any answer between, “Yours” and “Let me motorboat the pointy orb thingies” is [...]

Dr. Rob and Hotwheelz: From Couch to Chair, a Conversaton. Part 1 – June 12, 2009
November 3, 2009It’s official. I’m now a full-fledged writer for Rudius Media. I even have a cool little Love on Wheelz button on the blogroll to the right. To celebrate the occasion, Dr. Rob and I collaborated on a little Q & A. I guess you could call him the welcome wagon. I just wish he had [...]

Nursing Chronicles: Jasmin – June 3, 2009
November 3, 2009I don’t understand what about me attracts the crazy nurses. Maybe my quirky personality drives away the sane ones (if there are any) or maybe Christian companies don’t attract many sane people in the first place. A company founded on an ideology can’t be run by very sane people. For example, what would you think [...]

Nursing Chronicles: Bobby – May 21, 2009
November 3, 2009Sometimes I question the effectiveness of nursing schools. The “nurses” that slip through the cracks are wildly incompetent and in no way capable of caring for newborn puppies, much less medically dependent people. It’s understandable that unqualified employees sneak passed filters in most professions, but nursing deals with human lives. It should be held to [...]

Virgin ‘Wheelz – May 8, 2009
November 3, 2009Part of having little to no social life means that I don’t interact much with girls my own age. Over the years, I’ve watched other guys flirt and talk to them, but I never learned how to do it myself. I mean, I understand on an intellectual level what to do, but I’m incapable of [...]
