For some reason, writing isn’t happening lately. As of late it has been hard for me to come here and write, however, I’m going to try and overcome it.
 
Harvey and I booked our tickets to Seattle. We’ll stay in the hostel downtown and bum around the city for a few days. That will happen in April and I’m quite excited to go. I haven’t been back to Seattle for over 15 years. It will be interesting to see what has changed since we lived there.
 
I worked at my internship this week. We had a big event for our 50+ program. Every month they have a lunch and after the lunch a doctor comes to speak about a certain topic. This month’s discussion was on heart disease. It was interesting to see how older people are a lot like kids. I felt like I was a camp counselor again.
 
I was able to leave a little early and have lunch with Charles. We went to a Thai place and it was wonderful. It was so cool to see him dressed up for work, very handsome. We realized how we are growing up and it’s kind of scary. We had a great time taking the piss out of one another and just hanging. He was telling me how there is this girl he’s seeing. It’s interesting because it’s his sister’s friend. It’s a sexual relationship and he doesn’t think his sister will find out. I told him that girls talk and that he might want to be careful. Then he told me that the girl’s reputation was on the line as well and he didn’t think she would tell anyone. It will be interesting to see where that goes.
 
There’s been a lot of drama with the committee, but I’ll write about that soon. I’m not in the mood to write anymore. I’ll do a survey my sister in law sent me in my email and then get ready to meet up with Gina.

I love CSI Miami too! Most everybody I knows whines that they either don’t like David Caruso or “it’s just not Vegas.” Blah, Blah, Blah… Miami’s my favorite of the three!

You could be very decadent and combine all of the “Four places I would rather be right now”?!

The Outsiders, classic. Have watched that many times myself. Seattle sounds nice, especially in April, spring in full bloom. 🙂

February 24, 2006

Seattle sounds like fun.

i’ve never put powered ranch dressing in potatoes before. sounds good though, i’ll have to try it!

February 24, 2006

Like that last answer to your survey. How about in a hot bath AND in the arms of a handsome, caring man AND on vacation. You`d hardly be sleeping then though!

Have have had three of the same types of jobs as you…interesting.

i want to visit seattle so badly. also, i see that mac and cheese is one of your favorites. it’s my #1 all time comfort food. just had to comment on that. 😀

i haven’t watched the outsiders in a long, long time. your foods are making me hungry. at first read, i thought your fourth job involved “foraging adults”. as you can see i am rushed for time these days. 🙂
