Is This Interesting?
Thoughts/feelings that just might not matter:

That’s right, we all made it to Friday. I tell ya, a five-day week after a two-day frozen week is nothing to sneeze at. Tonight, I’m gonna celebrate with some dance!

Several of my friends (and my one most special-est friend Maggie) are performing in Dance Carousel beginning tonight at the Blue Theatre, located at 916 Springdale, 78702. 40 dances in 40 minutes for fine arts coinoisseurs with a short attention spans like me! Tonight’s show is sold out, but here’s some info for the remaining two performances:
Saturday, Feb 3 @ 2:15
Sunday, Feb. 4 @9:15

Reservations are strongly suggested. Call 479-7529 to reserve your tickets.

Also, I’d like to share a list with you via The Telegraph via Nothing to Do With Arbroath:

Top 10 Most Objectionable Noises

1. Vomiting
2. Microphone feedback
3. Wailing babies
4. Train scraping on tracks
5. Squeaky seesaw
6. Poorly played violin
7. Whoopee cushion
8. Argument in a soap opera
9. Mains hum
10. Tasmanian devil

This is important stuff for a songwriter to study, since I’m aiming to create the exact opposites. Read all about it, then you can actually hear the sounds!

See you Monday…

I am not a smoker…
One man’s reasons for not lighting up in ‘07:

…because I have so many friends who would be sad if I killed myself with cigarettes.

So far I have saved a lot of money by not smoking.

A list of quick text messages for the not-so-young generation:

Excerpts from an latimes.com article, December 25, 2006. MICHAEL LASER is the author of the novel “Dark & Light: A Love Story.”

BELATEDLY, I’VE LEARNED that LOL means Laughing Out Loud, and POS means Parent Over Shoulder (i.e., change the subject, fast). Young people invented this shorthand for e-mail and instant messaging, and you can hear their attitudes and concerns in it — for example, DYHABF (Do You Have A Boyfriend?), W/E (Whatever) and UW (You Wish).

I haven’t been 20 for a long time now, and my thoughts don’t always lend themselves to electronic communication; but they’re common enough to deserve concise acronyms of their own. So feel free to use any of these abbreviations as needed:

Exercise

YGONTRTAFAM: Young Guy On Next Treadmill Running Twice As Fast As Me

HHDD: Hope He Drops Dead

PSY/NMI: Played Softball Yesterday, Need More Ibuprofen

NTFS/BO: NordicTrac For Sale (Best Offer)
