As for love--methinks your prospects just opened up. 'Course, he's not an Earl, (like I imagined you wanted in my limerick) but I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. What say we forecast each other's year?

I've heard a good trick to play on medicine cabinet snoopers is to fill it up with ping pong balls prior to having guests over. That would be so mean! I wouldn't do it, I really have nothing to hide (I mean, who keeps their stash in their medicine cabinet?
I wouldn't open a medicine cabinet because of the possibility of it. So I guess I'm saying what keeps me "good" is not that I am inherently good but rather the horrible embarrassment of getting caught in not goodness! Oh, and I drink too much, eat too much, love too much....too much! My coworkers told me yesterday that the next time I think I'm going to have a "boyfriend" he will have to go before a committee. They wrote me a job description and everything.

I know that trick. I prepare for it. What? You think I'm some amatuer?

I LOVE fortune telling, and it annoys my rational mind that I really want to believe it - this way at least I know it's random. BTW - I didn't get the culture & learning chick. I got the Big Mac & fries & vodka too.... Maybe we have a missing triplet?

I repeatedly fail to fully appreciate each day I am alive. I compound the error by failing to express my appreciation for the people in my life.

pooping in tackle boxes at sears.
Just kidding, it wasn't me. being flippant (reserved for the cellar only) I thought I may be consuming beverages to excess, then I spoke with a friend who drinks 9-24 beers (pub cans) per evening. That's from 5:30pm to 9:00 pm. That's one beer every 9 to 21 minutes. By those standards, I don't even have a habit. I often neglect to brush my teeth before bed, I rarely floss. I do not build up plaque.
