I'm not making any resolutions - I'm making...
I know what I did this year. I know what I didn’t do this year - and now I know what I will accomplish next year… Here’s to 2011 peeps

The FIRST thing I do when I get home at the end of the day, is take off my shoes and socks. I’m like John McClane in Die Hard But the amount of times that I have *almost* died from tripping myself because one foot steps on the loose hem of the other foot/leg… it bothers me
It really has been a Christmas miracle that I’ve had these past 4 days off of work, but ironically, I’ve been so busy socially (in the good way)…

I would rather put out a campfire with my FACE, than work retail at Christmas ever again. But seriously - Happy Holidays everybody

Tumblr Challenge Day 10 [Final] - One thing that...
My mother told me once that whenever she sees my father in a crowd of people, when she was not expecting to see him - she gets butterflies in her stomach. And since this past November, they’ve been married for 30 years.
I think about this all the time when I’m walking around everywhere. Sometimes I even look around to see if I feel the same for anyone the way...

Tumblr Challenge Day 9 - Two things that inspire...
1. I strive to make people laugh. Getting a laugh out of somebody inspires me to do more, to try harder, to get another one.
2. I literally can spend hours watching videos of artists drawing stuff. Videos like this one. They inspire me.

Tumblr Challenge Day 7 - Four songs that mean a...
1. ‘Like Knives’ by City And Colour This is maybe, honestly - the greatest and best song in the world.
2. ‘Livin’ On A Prayer’ by Bon Jovi Up until I actually started listing to “my own” music - I grew up listening to the songs/bands my parents liked. Bon Jovi was probably the biggest of them. As a kid, many a car ride was spent singing this song at the...

Tumblr Challenge Day 6 - Five fictional characters...
1. Ross Geller from FRIENDS People tell me that I’m funny, like Chandler. And while I clearly don’t have the movie-star good looks like Joey, I do have his appetite for all things food. But without really thinking about it - I guess I’m more like Ross, which is both a good and a bad thing.
2. Twoflower from Terry Pratchett’s ‘Discworld’ series of books Like...

Tumblr Challenge Day 5 - Six reasons to keep on...
1. I have never seen New York City.
2. Somewhere, there is a girl waiting to fall in love with me forever. I can’t/won’t let her down.
3. I have not tried doing stand-up yet.
4. I have not written the ‘great American novel’. Or at least, the next book that will get turned into a (or possibly series of) major motion picture(s)…
5. Years ago, I pinky-swore with my...
Wahey !
purpleishboots:
Thinking about doing my best to ignore Tumblr to finish a much over due email to a Mr. Eats, and an essay for grad school.
Holy crap.
This is the first time someone has called me “mister” without adding “you are making a scene” The essay is more important !!
HOLY SCHNIKES. That took like, a 1000 hours but...
Is there anything better than fresh bed sheets ? Wha… Yes, I KNOW there are but it was a rhetorical… OK, fine - is there anything better than fresh bed sheets in MY LIFE right now? No. There. Happy ??

Tumblr Challenge Day 4 - Seven TV Shows you...
1. Bravestarr Honestly, I should be saying Thundercats (I actually had THE toy sword and went through THREE Lion-O action figures as a kid), but I can’t remember sitting down to watch Thundercats as clearly as I can with Bravestarr. And I still remember that roaring/lazer sound the giant robot bulls make in the Bravestarr movie.
2. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles I don’t care if they...

Tumblr Challenge Day 3 - Eight movies that changed...
8. ”An American Tail” This was the first movie I ever saw in theaters, and it is entirely responsible for my now 22-year-old dream of wanting to live in America. Its the reason why I love New York City as much as I do. It charted a course in my life that I have yearned for every single day.
7. “American Pie” This was the first “mature” comedy that I related...

Tumblr Challenge Day 2 - Nine things you have...
9. I’ve grown up, both emotionally and mentally.
8. I handle stress/pressure a lot better than I ever used to before. Now when something happens - I deal with it.
7. It takes more strength to let go of something than it takes to try and hold onto it. No matter how much I thought I wanted it in my life.
6. I (as much as I would like to) sadly can’t rely on everyone. If I want...

Caught “Adventureland” on tv. Its good. It’s not “Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist” good, which is ironic seeing as Jesse Eisenberg is the jewish Michael Cera.

Tumblr Challenge Day 1 - Ten facts about yourself
1. The first cd ever given to me was ‘Cereal Killer Soundtrack’ by Green Jellÿ. It really is as weird as it sounds.
2. When there is something that I like - I really like it, and try learn everything that I can about whatever it is. When there is something that I don’t like - I think about it faaaar too much considering its something that I don’t even actually like…
