New post, have to keep the people happy!

Oh man, if you have visited my page within the last ten minutes I already published this as a blank post; my apologies. Anyways, updates from my extremely unexciting life. Ah, I wouldn't say its unexciting, merely as exciting as my life could get without drinking. There's absolutely nothing to do in Meadville; or so that's my excuse. My fellow hallmates are outside my door talking about nothing, though I quite enjoy my hallmates; they are my friends. All is well in Walker Hall first floor :). More on that later.

Anyways! What's new in my life, since....my last post? Oh! Yes yes of course. Well first off I was thinking to myself there, so no, I didn't skip over any important detail. On a totally different note, I could really go for some Rainbow Sherbet, as my throat is still sore (well more scratchy than sore) from my ever insinuating cold. My girlfriend just mentioned to me the ice cream flavor (via IM), called "Vermonty Python." She's informing me of what it is now.... it is, according to my lovely girlfriend, "coffee liqueur ice cream with a chocolate cookie crumb swirl and fudge cows!"

Fudge Cows. That's amazing.

What was I going to post about.....oh yes right, so I've found a new Passion [not of the Christ]. Tea. Yes yes I all realize you know this already and already adds to my "zen" or "pseudo-zen" qualities. And that my website will be coming out soon (though adagio.com has the same idea). I got an adagio starter kit complete with loose tea (4 sampler tins!) as well as an intro book on tea and a tea infuser (which is genius)! So I got this tea and let me say, I am completely satisfied with it, its terrific, no doubt I will need to be purchasing a variety of great flavors soon. I enjoy loose tea because as I told my and my girlfriend's friend Becky (there I mentioned you) " Tea bags are crap because they use the 'fannings' of the tea leaves, which are like the shitty leftover parts of the tea leaf [whereas] loose tea is the actual dried leaf."

So, yeah. Tea is awesome. I highly recommend going to Adagio.com and picking up the starter kit. If you need a 5 dollar off coupon, just ask me, I can send them out with my account there.

Want to know the only thing about Tea that is not so cool? I will tell you.

It makes me have to pee every five minutes.

See, my Flight of the Conchords mug holds .5 liters. A bottle of water also holds .5 liters. You do the math.

3 cups of Tea x .5 liters = Pat pees a lot.


okay, maybe that's not exactly cut and dry math. You get the idea.

So, I'm impressed at the visitors; 644 unique visitors if I am not mistaken, that is pretty darn impressive. Though my counter could be off, it might be daily, but even so its quite an improvement. I'll keep posting if you guys keep visiting (oh and I enjoy comments, keep that in mind).

Well, that's it for this post, keep tuning in (and maybe on Adagio I'll make my own Daily Apple Crisp blend.... you can do that there.)


But, I'm done.

EDIT: Oh, hey guys thanks for voting on the poll, for those of you who did. I'm going to change it now, so be wary!

Drowsy, tired, and sick, oh dang.

Hey everyone, it has been about 4 days since my last post and I deeply apologize. However, I have gotten ill. Yes, ill. I am "drowsy, tired and sick" ....oh dang. I have a cold.

Now, its interesting because the night before I got the cold I felt fantastic. I saw this Buddhist Tibetan (or Tibetan Buddhist) Monk at Ford Chapel, and he was basically the man. Probably one of the happiest guys I have ever seen, spoke great English, was from Nepal and basically told everyone getting angry isn't worth it. Which could not be more the truth. Anyways, after that I decided to go back to my room and grab my new hockey stick, to try it out at our local gymnasium (AKA the Wise Center). I went there around ten o clock and then afterwards went back to my room and proceeded to shower. I then realized that the 4th Indiana Jones is coming out soon and decided to rent the videos at the Campus Center's game room. I rented them all out (though I only got to the first one) and eagerly went to my room to watch them. I also purchased nachos. So I'm all set. ONE BAD IDEA: Going outside when my hair was wet and it was below freezing.

I think that's why I am sick.

Though my computer science teacher was also sick and she helped me with something on Thursday. We were in close contact (via keyboard) so it is possible she infected me.


My poor cells are being enslaved by a bastard virus :(

Cool, I'm all about old money

There was this cool thing I stumbled upon (haha) when I was surfing Digg. It was old money that were in increments of 500 dollars up to 10,000 dollars! They look pretty cool, here's the link to it:


Old Cash

Cold as Ice.

New polllllll.........

Ridiculous title. Anyway, please give me an idea of your Tea-ness level. I hope I am not making this website in vain :). If I am who cares haha.

Subsite Status: Need webhost ....still.

Hey everyone, I acknowledged that I will be making a subsite of this blog, and it will be all about Tea and Reviewing Tea etc. I am still working on the hosting situation, but don't worry, it'll be up soon (I still need to find out how to make a user database, etc). The name is my favorite part, but it shall not be known until its up and running :).


Oh! Also, if you have any suggestions, please email me canellp@allegheny.edu

What a cold and boring day at the campus of Allegheny College.....My Titles are getting terrible.

Hey everybody, so this is probably quite the pointless post, well, maybe not, if I feel as I should tell about my birthday escapades. Oh yeah, Saturday was my birthday if I didn't mention, so happy belated birthday to me. I came back from my house today at like 10:00. I left at 9:00 or a little after, and let me tell you, it was blazingly cold, but at the same time the sun was just blinding. It was wild. So I got back and unpacked and went to class, in the cold. I'm here now (I just noticed I used the term "blazingly cold" isn't that an oxymoron?) writing this little post for all of you to do while you are sitting inside with your little hot chocolate cups or tea cups or coffee cups. I'm drinking a nice and cold Orange Crush.

Anyway, what did I do on my birthday? Well, I will tell you right now what I did so I don't have to keep repeating myself. First of all, we were going to go to Texas Roadhouse, and if that didn't work out we'd go to Quaker Steak and Lube. So me, my parents, Drew (my brother) and my lovely girlfriend Laura went to Texas Roadhouse first. Bear in mind it was cold and windy and snowy. Kind of a pain. Texas Roadhouse was going to be a 40 minute wait, so I nixxed that and we went to Quaker Steak (much to my mom's chagrin). My mother is a jaded person and thought they ONLY served wings; which is simply not true! So we had an enjoyable lunch/dinner type deal there and then we went back to my house, as I proceeded to watch the New Jersey Devils stomp on the Hurricanes IN HD ON HD NET. It was quite the good time. My girlfriend, who is great and amazing, also gave me my presents; a Penguins shirt as well as TWO TICKETS TO THE PENS GAME IN MARCH. I flipped and she is ridiculous for spending so much on me. But a wholehearted thanks to her :). My parents got me this sweet plaque of Penguins' jerseys and a sweet shirt. Most everybody else gave me cards, except Drew who got me a sweet Apple shirt and a hockey stick I was going to buy myself :). I bought myself some gourmet tea from adagio tea and I cannot wait to drink it. I might also buy the tea starter kit. Its really cool; I am getting so into tea. Unfortunately, the subsite of Daily Apple Crisp might be overshadowed by Adagio. Its a tea central! I'll still work on it, but I still need a host. Until that time, you'll all have to wait :).

I'm out!
