1. If I owe you, bill me.

3. I've this habit of "reading" people when we meet first. It's as presumptuous as it sounds, on both readings. I've had my assumptions independently verified on several occasions. There remains the strong possibility that I'm guessing very well, very often.

2. For the first time in my adult life, not being able to experience an object of my desires is bothering me. Such that my natural rhythms are off and in routine there exists no solace.

4. Communication technology and it's ability to make the notion of being unavailable obsolete is beginning to take it's toll on my resolve. I have 4 email addresses, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and a blog yet none of them resonate with my ethos on communication. None of them afford me the awkward silences that occur when the conversation between people exchanging spent air and long stares reaches an unexpected lull. The moment when you have to jog your memory, not your browser to keep the exchange going. I need little in this life, but in that little, those awkward silences rank very highly. top five to be exact.

5. The more I work in retail, the less patience I have for rude behavior. It cost nothing for you to reply, "Good Morning/Afternoon" when greeted. Perhaps my expectations are too high.

6. I've been inspired by forces that shall remain nameless to work out and tone up. I've no desire for a "gym body" just one that's has less padding and more versatile muscle groups. It could even result me being shirtless come next summer. More than likely, it'll allow me to spar with Chewy without tiring out in 45 minutes.

7. Is the Southerner's dream really just a nice garden and a well oiled gun? For some, I'll say yes. I won't exclude myself from that group but I will say I'm not interested in either until I get closer to enjoying grandchildren which is no time soon.

8. Gifts are to be matched, favors must be returned & credit must be repayed. These are not my rules, these are understandings that have been developed over centuries of commercial transactions.

Variations of Self

1. You save a drowning person via safety doughnut. Why? Because their fear of death will kill you & the help your personal involvement could offer. 2. Just because it's label fiction, doesn't negate the real context that it was derived from. 3. Sometimes the best advice is none. 4. Lineage is relevant primarily when personal identity has been built from it, unless we're speaking of livestock. 5. All of the hardworkers are dead. The living only know to cheat the house - Unknown Community Elder

1. I really wish I would have learned to enjoy the moment for what is a lot earlier on. I would've saved myself much confusion & disappointment. 2. To be critical or to be creative, that is the question. 3. In the event someone ventures to ask you what their take home message should be from a given exchange, respect their willingness to acknowledge the limits of their understanding & give them the blasted message. It doesn't matter how simple it is, just relay the message. 4. Is there such a thing as too much pop Chinese cuisine? The answer is yes, yes there is such a thing. 5. Every time I think to text you, I immediately remember that I don't care if I ever hear from you. I'd delete your number but I love the surprise of feeling that every time it happens!! 6. Touareg + Gun Powder= Yess!!! 7. Hand crafted items always rank higher in my book than mass produced goods. I suppose it's the old world charm that captures my attention, knowing ...

1. Hiking = my (re)new addiction 2. Its always interesting to be reminded of where you stand in someones life. I once believed that those whom I saw the most would hold me in closer regard than those I only see occasionally. I was wrong (yep!) and its never felt soo good to know the other side. 3. At some point in childhood we begin to remember days as seperate entities, Monday being different from Tuesday etc. I think its special when children don't recall the last day they saw but rather the emotion they remember you by. 4. Longer than (my) average hair is driving me nuts but I refuse to cut it.....yet 5.  Pity parties are worthless, costly, & over rated. Get over, you could be not living and then your worries would be reduced to the care of your soul... 6. I told you'd I'd call when something of merit occured.  7. I'm looking for a more p.c. replacement for odd man out. Any suggestions?? 8. Being told you possess untapped potential and actually tapping said poten...
