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.

You've Been Overserved

Inaugural activities are really fun even if you dislike the president they are "honoring". My timing was impeccable Wednesday evening - I managed to avoid 43, yet enjoy a few of the events thrown for him. I think I actually fooled myself into thinking they were holiday parties - the ground was covered in snow, it was finally cold here (the weather gods have been acting as though it's spring until recently), I got to wear this really great dress that I've been wanting to wear for awhile. All in all a good evening. Especially since I also managed to avoid my boss - don't get me wrong, he's a good guy (to me) and we get along smashingly but the dress was pretty, um, flattering to my chest and I really didn't think it was an appropriate outfit to wear when meeting my boss' wife for the first time. On a bad note, I left my favorite winter hat at the last place we were at and had a headache until having the drinks with the Marine. I am officially too old to party like a rock star.
