It's been a week since I wrote on here?
I better keep on top of this journal, lest the masses fall victim to the assertion that I may, in fact, have a life!! I wanted to fit the word "Hark" in there, but I'm not having much luck, hehe. This was a challenging week. Monday is as Mondays always are. Tuesday ended earlier, but I felt like garbage and Val (now officially my boss... I think) took over the COA group for me. Those kids are soooooooo cute, but they soooooooooo didn't help my migraine! ;) Wednesday was hump day but I didn't get much action, HAAAAAHAHA! Ok, I know I am the only one laughing, but don't rain on my parade, dag nabbit!! Thursday was really cool. Group went very well at night and it was productive. Furthermore, Jean called me, which was a nice surprise. The voice didn't ring a bell at first, but then it sounded familiar. I can't believe it's been ten years. I feel that it may be similar to burying and then digging up a time capsule years later. Afterall, our memories of each other are static and can't possibly come close to explaining who were are now. On the other hand, we may have come to know the essence of the other individual and saw the beginning of the blossoming during those formative years. It's an interesting thought at any rate. Due to boredom, I now present:100 Little Known Facts About ME1. I know how much wood a woodchuck would chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood.2. I was once asked to be in a music video while waiting for someone in Manhattan3. I once shared a bucket, yes BUCKET, of alcohol with 5 other people. 4. I once leaped out of a booth and did a conga line with a guy in Lederhosen.5. Facts #3 and #4 are related6. While in Germany, I stayed in some guys living room that I didn't know. It's ok though, the 3 people I went with didn't know him either and it all worked out smashingly! 7. Ronald McDonald scares me for many, many reasons8. I have been known to sit on the floor of a crowded McDonalds, cross my legs, and do my very loud, very obnoxious Yanni impression. 9. There is absolutely no relation between #7 and #8... although I would probably respect the guy if he could, or would, do anything as embarrassing!10. I am a leather whore. Notice I did not say a "whore IN leather" or a "leathered whore", but a "leather whore." 11. I am addicted to Sprite.12.

I have a drunken talent of knowing exactly how many drinks each of my friends has had. 86. I am quite self confident about many things. However, I am also self-conscious about certain things.
