Quo Vado?

It’s been weeks since I’ve written anything. I don’t really want to write now, but having successfully shoving myself into a corner where my options are to write or go stark raving bonkers, I’ll write. It’s hard to think that in the last month I haven’t attempted to write anything more complicated than a seven sentence business letter. I ran to the new homestead for a holiday, and while I came back refreshed also found myself still silenced. I still don’t feel like saying much - whether it be here or to the actual people in my life. I’ve mentally begun writing several posts. I even have post-its for possible post topics. But the idea of actually writing me continues to elude me.

Two small keys to a good ceasar salad - or at least one I like.

1. Cut the lettuce into small pieces, I don’t want to have to man-handle huge pieces of the stuff into my mouth.
2. Coat, but refrain from drowning the greens. I like ceaser dressing as much as anyone else, but I don’t want to drink it.

You Are a Auditory Learner

You tend to remember what you hear, and you have a knack for speaking well. You excel at debating, foreign languages, and music. You would be an excellent diplomat - or rock star!

You Are: 50% Dog, 50% Cat

You are a nice blend of cat and dog. You’re playful but not too needy. And you’re friendly but careful. And while you have your moody moments, you’re too happy to stay upset for long.

You Have Your Sarcastic Moments

While you’re not sarcastic at all times, you definitely have a cynical edge. In your opinion, not all people are annoying. Some are dead! And although you do have your genuine moments, you can’t help getting your zingers in. Some people might be a little hurt by your sarcasm, but it’s more likely they think you’re hilarious.

Afternoon showers aren’t all that unusual around here during the summer. Today, however, you could tell that we hadn’t had one in a while. I participated in the mass (12 people) exodus from the building. Unfortunately for me, I again followed the pack back into the office after I’d rolled up the windows and dropped the moon roof in MPC.

I understand what makes a woman think any man is better than nothing. I’ll just never understand what makes her think she’s got nothing.
-Jeremy Goodwin as played by Joshua Malina and written by Aaron Sorkin on Sports Night

You Are A Poplar Tree

People tend to look up to you, and it’s a bit lonely at the top. Inside, you are not always self confident, but you show great courage. Mature and organized, you are reliable in any situation. You tend to have an artistic or philosophical outlook on life. You are very choosy in love and take partnership seriously.

Some random thoughts to hopefully mark some careful movement out of the silence.

• If I decant the Diet Coke, I drink way more of it.
• Vacation hasn’t really reduced my desire to shoot people. Particularly ones who interrupt my work.
• I bought a kids alarm clock yesterday. It makes fun noises and vibrates.
• The ‘if you have boobs, lead with them’ philosophy produces odd results on construction sites.
• My patience for stupid traffic moves has reduced significantly and my horn has become my favorite weapon.
• I don’t know why you wouldn’t own a car you’d be willing to road trip in. Days on the road with MPC are a great deal of fun.
• I think the number of suicidal squirrels in Atlanta is on the rise.
• Traveling through Nashville sucks. I become the maker of stupid traffic moves and end up swearing every time.
