OK, got me thinking (damn, I hate it when he does that) about that whole 100 things to do before I die.

In no particular order

95. Go back to London
96. Write a novel (that one is in progress)
97. Visit Italy
98. Visit Spain
99. Visit Nashville
100. Make a good marinara sauce from scratch

That’s just for now. I know there is more, just have to work on it a bit…

OK, does the cutaway thing really work? I guess this is the only way to find out, now, isn’t it? Guess I’ll just have to write down something long and scrolly and see what happens…

Not ready.

Not even remotely so.

No Christmas spirit even floating around in my head yet.

Well, it finally happened.

For the longest time, I couldn’t figure out how on earth Starbucks was making any money. I’ve had their regular coffee at work, and always thought that it pretty much sucked.

Last weekend, for the first time I actually set foot in a Starbucks store and got a latte.

It’s like liquid crack.

I had some great or interesting thoughts to pass on to the rest of the world, but I just don’t.

Is that it strikes at the most inopportune moments… Not that the office isn’t the perfect place to write the Great American Novel…

Trying to find your place in the world.

Around me, people are going to school, getting married, taking flying lessons, recording albums, having kids, and pretty much finding their place in some form or fashion.

I’m still trying to find mine - I know it’s out there. I am just starting to think it’s going to require some rather drastic changes that I hadn’t really thought about before.

Am I the only one that DOESN’T have tomorrow off???

Install, Reboot, Install, Reboot, Install, Reboot…

But my system is working a lot faster. :)

To get my cd player out of Tim’s car…

And grab the old promo cd he’s got from JC…

Rebuild the computer…

It’s overdue…

Kinda just want to crawl under a rock for a couple of days….

Met on April 13th 2002 at a small drunken riot at my house…

They got married last Thursday.

CAUSE YOU’RE HOGGIN’ ALL THE LEFTOVER HALLOWEEN CANDY!

I managed to jam my finger by whacking my hand into the side of the desk while attempting to protect my breakfast from Snoopy.

Damn thing still hurts.

Seems it was the low blood sugar…

Ate and wasn’t nearly so pissed off at the world anymore.

Lookout world, I am in a pissy mood.

No idea why, probably low blood sugar, so I am eating dinner.

It could be that I have to go to Safeway and return the mesh laundry bags I purchased this afternoon - they have no means of closing them.

It could be the new cell phone which I am not sure I really like, and still debating if I really needed it (old one won’t really hold a charge anymore, but it does sort of work.) I still haven’t activated it yet, and am still debating returning it.

It could be that I found a good deal on a combo cd/mp3 player that I could use in my car, but my other cd player isn’t dead, so I really can’t justify it.

It could also be that I realized that my eye appointment is TOMORROW morning and not Wednesday morning as I had thought. So I had to leave a “Hi, I don’t even know which day is which” message for my boss telling him I’ll be late getting in tomorrow.

Oh, and I have no idea where my vision insurance card is. Which I will probably need tomorrow.

ARGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH

That’s the sound of my taking a whole slew of my cd’s and ripping them to mp3.

Cause I’m too lazy to carry around all my cd’s.

Next: need mp3 player I can use in the car. :)
