roof over my head. food in my belly. clothes on my back. enough money in the bank to keep the wolves at bay. dependable access to the world wide web. knowledge to keep one's needs and wants as simple as possible. inkling that one can never truly be satisfied, but that little gumption can bring about happiness too.
My bathroom. Someone really should get in there and do something about it.
Daily BJs from an adoring & adorable redhead that smells like caramel & mint juleps. ...What? I meant Bartles & Jaymes wine coolers delivered to my cubicle! What did you THINK I meant? You naughty minded person, you? Although that would be nice too come to think of it...
Technology is still changing and evolving. If I'm wrong, and Blogger, Facebook and Twitter still exist in their current states a decade from now, it will mean technology and humanity have grown stagnant. The past ten years have shown remarkable growth in this industry with no indications that this growth is abating. I don't know what will replace them a decade from now, but based on events of the recent past and humanity's tendency to learn from past mistakes over time and (despite some people's fears) continue pressing ever forward, it would be wrong to assume otherwise.
@GregGrunberg but he'd have to put on a little weight, and wear blue contact lenses.
Funny story. Was dating this beautiful woman. I'd have to say about ten years ago now. She mentioned in passing that I never bought her flowers. I explained I never buy women flowers cuz flowers die and I'd rather spend money on something more practical. She asked me what, and I showed her a MAPSCO of North Texas area that I'd bought for her and was gonna give her later but seemed this was the perfect time. Well she got real mad. I felt it was a thoughtful, practical gift. She said she didn't want thoughtful and practical. We argued and after awhile I just went home. Next date I brought flowers and that just made her mad again, cuz now she knew I only bought her flowers cuz she told me to and not cuz I thought of it. I said that's cuz I'd never think to buy anybody flowers cuz they die. It's a stupid gift, but you wanted flowers so here they are. So we argued some more and I went home. The relationship didn't last much beyond that.
So I don't buy women flowers anymore. I never shoulda started.
One. English. I can't even pull off pig latin. Well, I can speak Spanish with an illusion of confidence, but I don't necessarily understand what I'm reading. I flunked Spanish both in high school & college. I also flunked a class on German. So I can honestly say I'm bilingually illiterate.
@ElizaDushku cuz I'd never leave my mirror. Failing that, I wanna look like me, but taller, and thinner, without glasses, and perfect teeth, perfect skin, perfect everything else, more hair where I should have it, less hair where I shouldn't have it, and I'd smell like Old Spice while riding backwards on a horse.
Yes, I used to be a southern Baptist then I was a nondenominational Christian for awhile, cuz Baptists are crazy! Can't dance? OMGWTF? Then I became a SubGenius Christian, then a deist w/SubGenius leanings, and now a full blown atheist but ah STILL BELIEVEZ IN DAH FIGHTIN' JESUS! He's "Bob"s golfing partner. "Y'know Jesus smoked Chesterfields." Says so in the Bible. "He smoked 'em, yet they did not exist two thousand years ago. We must accept this on Faith! There's no logical explanation for it! YA DON'T USE YER MIND TO THINK ABOUT YOUR RELIGION!" Rev Ivan Stang said that. ...I'm sorry what was the question?
The editor for a college newspaper for which I wrote a column long ago. She was a great boss.
