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.

Tick Tock You Don't Stop

Most of you are fortunate enough to not have any exposure to Color Me Badd. No, that isn't a typo, they really do spell it that way. I, on the other hand, was forced to listen to them my freshman year of college. One of our suitemates Pam, geeze I haven't thought of her in years, was obsessed with CMB. We're talking standing outside their hotel in the rain and waiting to meet them obsessed. It is a bit fuzzy (it has been 14 years - cut me some slack) but I'm pretty sure she met them at some point. Regardless, I was watching VH-1 last night (wow, I really AM old) and they had the 40 Most Awesomely Bad Dirrty Songs....Ever. CMB did not let me down. I Wanna Sex You Up was second only to Physical by Olivia Newton John. For the complete list click above. In spite of the incredible awfulness that was CMB I have some really good, no make that great, memories of times with those songs in the background. Even considering the badness that happened that year (not least of which was seeing a new friend's lifeless body after he'd been in a motorcycle crash) it really was filled with so many great times and memories. I wish I was still in contact with some of those people.
