Give me some good beer, conversation, friends, and music and there is little that will bother me. I try to treat others as I wish to be treated and when I don't, I like to think I learn from my mistakes. I believe most people are trustworthy until proven otherwise. I'm a conversational snob. I have little tolerance for stupidity or rudeness. Common courtesy is one of the best traits one can have. I believe there is conversation that is inappropriate for the dinner table. I love running into people I used to know, but am always happier if I look cute when it happens. I think there would be much less ruckus in the world if brunch were a daily offering.

The New Art of IMing...

IM, be it through Yahoo, AOL or whatever other you choose is becoming the easiest way to keep in touch with someone. It is easy, informal and fast. This does not mean all etiquette should be lost when using it. I have been teased for being grammatically correct while IMing. Most people don't use punctuation (e.g., no commas, periods, apostrophes, capital letters). I do. It's in me. I can't escape it and I type far slower when I try. There are also a couple abbreviations that are commonly used - btw (by the way), lol (laughing out loud), wtf (what the f***) and brb (be right back - which does not mean 50 minutes....)
