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.

Things That Are Keeping Me Up Tonight

Literally, these are the thoughts that I am thinking as I try to fall asleep. In no particular order. God help me.

1. What games am I going to get when we divvy up our Nats seats next week?

2. Why does my cat nap all evening and then decide to run around like a bat outta Hell right when I am going to bed?

3. I am honestly 95% happy with my life right now. Not too shabby. Especially considering the 5% is being worked on.

4. My chances of going to Brazil are looking better and better. Still not getting my hopes up too high.

5. Thinking about this weekend and how I am going to fit in naps (still not 100% better). I'm going out tomorrow night, lunch date with XM Sat, party Sat night with XM's ex and others, movie and drinks Sun. I'm tired just thinking about it. One would think I would be able to sleep but no.

6. I am really far too impressed with my 'plumbing' work earlier this evening. Granted, I've always been pretty mechanically inclined...much to the dismay of my mother coming upon my brother and me taking something apart (always his idea mom). It didn't hurt having a very strong, independent grandmother who helped raise me and a grandfather who encouraged us to learn how things work (see above reference to taking things apart). Also growing up fairly poor really teaches you to fix things and do things on your own rather than call someone to do it for you.

7. I miss my grandparents every day. No exaggeration. Something makes me think of one or both of them every day. And every day I appreciate having had them in my life more and more. They were truly amazing, wonderful people and I can only hope that I am 1/2 what they were.

8. I wonder if I will ever get to hold a panda.

9. Whatever happened to Paul Reiser?

10. If train A is travel...just kidding.

11. I want to learn to play accoustic guitar this year. I am fairly confident I can teach myself. I'll keep you posted.

12. I think I could be okay never seeing Paris or London if I got to see Moscow and parts of Africa.

13. I really like the people I work with for the most part and for that I am thankful.

14. How did 'Paint the Silence' get stuck in my head?

15. I would love to be asleep right now. Tomorrow is going to drag.

  2. I'm dying to go to Moscow - I'll go with. Plus, Russian was my college language so I can translate.
