Traveling and enjoying life.

Making lists
Throwing parties
Helping stranded travelers
Convincing small children to engage in mischief
Appearing to be deep in thought while really wondering if i have time to get a burger at In N' Out
Sabreing bottles with bubbles
Feigning innocence when caught
Meeting unusual people
Buying more books than I can possibly read
Finding good reasons to avoid doing dull stuff (not procrastinating, really)

I am present.

Way too many books, films and musical tastes.

Food: anything that is not either cow penis (cows are by definition female and can't have penises, also it is chewy and the thought makes me wince), bell peppers.

Friends, preferably in a festive mood
Several reservations to fly somewhere I have no practical reason to be
Three partially read books
The phone # of a really good hotel concierge (they can get everything you need anywhere on the planet)
A valid passport, or two.
A friend with a sailboat
Access to a first rate bar.

What to do
What would Barry White do in this situation
Will the world of Eric Drexler ever come to be
Is it possible to get good deals at Costco if you live alone
How to motivate myself to go to yoga classes
When will be the right time to buy a house in Greece
Might it not be better to buy in a place where I speak the language
Practical justifications for unpractical hobbies and possesions
How cool it would be to have a side line as a high end art thief

Surprised to discover it is Friday already.

I really like Big Macs.

Want to learn how to do something silly but fun
Want to teach someone how to do something silly but fun
Need a guide through a museum
Want to visit North Korea before the Kim's fall
Need a list of significant chefs of the 21st century
Want to go listen to the sing songy show at Glide Memorial
