I keep not thinking of anything interesting to write about that's more than 2 sentences long. And I keep not remembering the shorter ideas either.

I spent half the weekend in New York. Saw tons of people from my past, both surprises and not, and both recent past and way in the past. I like it there, sometimes.

Then I had dinner last night with my dad, step-mom, and step-brothers, to celebrate that my dad's been cancer free for a year! Yay!!! Great dinner, too. Mahi-mahi is my new favorite fish.

The Eagles won again. Yay!

Why is it that "dance like no one's watching" has such a good rep, but "sing like no one's listening" doesn't? I think that's silly. This is the final justification I need to never hold back my singing. I mean, I think I have a decent voice, but if you disagree, I officially no longer care.

<jew-stuff> At Kol Zimrah Friday night, I learned great melodies for ma'ariv aravim and v'shamru, both written by the guy leading services. Too bad I have no musical memory. I'll try to get Ben to send me some sort of copy of them, so I can really learn them. I did remember the melody for yigdal that we did, though, which I'd heard once before. I really need to collect a bunch these, and then actually lead services somewhere at some point. Still haven't really ever done that. I think that not only would I be capable of doing so at this point with only a little preparation, but I'd do an amazing job with either psukei d'zimrah or Shabbat ma'ariv in particular. </jew-stuff>

Regular paychecks are nice, I have to say. Being un-unemployed has its benefits.

there is something to be said for good credit and for treating your body well. But good credit needs to be paid for, after all you could just go running :)

We should start a club. What would our witty acronym be?

Okay, come on, people. I know, being responsible is good and all, and one should pay one's bills. But I deliberately made this poll so that you could select more than one option. Are you sure some of you Responsible Adults don't want to change your answers to give me at least one video game?

Oh, yeah... you should get your ass off the couch and to a gym, flabby. Or, at the very least, get DDR and get some exercise.
