Imbedded in the heart of every man is the quiet fear of being alone. How to cope with that fear is a question that we all answer differently. Some would choose flight and constant company, while others stand their ground and confront the solitude. Sometimes you have to generalize when you’re playing the part of…

Text Message: Supplemental
“How’s law school treating you?” read the text message. I kept my cell phone off all day until classes let out at four in the afternoon. Carlos had sent me the message at ten in the morning. I stared at the message, gave it a lot more thought than I probably should have, and I…
Oh Hell No
The response letter from Richard: Kevin, Calm down dude (or woman cuz you sound like one, or you must be gay, not that there is anything wrong with that! [Seinfeld reference if you caught that joke]). The email was all a joke (hooray for me!!!). My bad for forgetting to finish my email with a…
Oh Crap
KZ a lawyer? Nah, he doesn’t have the disposition for it. He’s not aggressive enough. He’s even kind of a slacker, if you really want to hear the truth. Well guess what, suckers? It’s true. Law school starts on Wednesday, August 11th for me. And you know what? I’m terrified. I hardly knew at the…
It’s Just the Flu Talking
Whether it’s food poisoning or a stomach flu, the fact is I’ve been in total agony for the past two days. And true to human nature (or at least my own sentimental, maudlin nature), I’ve done a fine job of mirroring my emotional state with my physical state. This hardly seems like the time to…
Right Where I Left Off
Alas, the storm is clearing. My Final Fantasy XI addiction has slowly devolved from an obsession into a mere interest. I no longer skip meals or social outings to play the game, nor do I grow overly irritated if I don’t get my daily four hours or so of playtime. Yeah, when you’ve got nothing…
Breaking the silence
Check out my blog. You’ll notice that I haven’t been writing in it nearly as frequently as I used to. Sure, Final Fantasy XI has played a significant role on that front, but it’s not the entire reason. And contrary to popular belief, it’s not as if I have nothing left to say, because I…

Conrado left the following comment for my entry on Saturday, January 17: !!! You’re the man KZ !!! Remember thataru. And in response, Francisco had this to say: This is the end my friends. the last blog entry from kz any of us will read for a long time. Here’s why. you see, our friend…
Nobody’s Fault But My Own
Right now as I’m typing this entry, I could have been out with my work friends, watching Return of the King for the second time. That film, by the way, nearly had me in tears, it was so moving. Or, instead of a movie, I could have been out drinking with J (my Brett Ashley,…
Checking In
There hasn’t been much to say lately. The one thing that I’m supposed to be writing (a personal statement for law school applications) just isn’t flowing the way that it should. Consequently, I will be turning my applications in a month later than I had hoped to. Stupid writer’s block. Or maybe it’s apathy. Or…
