Stories you won’t be hearing:
- The day I discovered that my car really does have anti-lock brakes
- The Easter dinner I had on Valentine’s Day
- The conversation that began with someone asking me “What’s wrong with your face?”
- The week where my goal everyday was to get home in time to take out the trash
- The night I got in an argument with a checker at Stop & Shop
- How I got an iPod shuffle for free through effective procrastination
- The week I got weepy over the Today Show
- The day I got to have lunch
Okay, that last one probably wouldn’t have been much of a story anyway. But I remember that day fondly. It was two weeks ago today and I still remember those 20 minutes in the cafeteria with a sense of nostalgia.
I’ve been working a bit. Perhaps more than a bit. I’ve definitely had a few things to write about (see above list), just not a moment to put fingers to keyboard. What’s a workaholic to do?

Arrghh, all of these have the hallmarks of great stories. I feel like I've just gone to the theater, seen a bunch of trailers to very cool movies, and then been told they've all be shelved and won't ever be released.
Oh, the humanity!
I agree...maybe it just means we won't be hearing about them on the blog, but those definitely seem like they were meant to be shared.
And to tease you even more . . . my roommate helped me realize that the above-mentioned Stop & Shop incident was the second argument I'd had with a checker in that establishment.
You MUST move back to California, so you can share all these stories. I'll even buy your ticket at the ball game!
