<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Jon had Columbus Day off,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and we had a lovely lunch at Bill's</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
where I got a nacho burger.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That's right, a burger that had nachos</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and all the trimming of nachos.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was freakin' amazing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And a strawberry shake.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And some disco fries.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And a lemonade.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After work I went to Uniqlo to try to buy</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
some more stretch pants.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Old Navy pants I got</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
smell like burnt plastic,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
even after washing them twice.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've not smelled them lately,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but I've little hope they smell better.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Jon met me at the men's massage parlor/spa.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's just where we happened to meet.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We were going to go to look at Mooncake's menu</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
before hitting up D'Ag for some pasta and sauce</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
for dinner,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but then we saw a nicely lit place</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
that we've never really ventured over to.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was called Noodies.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's Thai noodle soups and other things.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I got the beef noodles,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and Jon got a crab/oyster sauce flavored one</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
with a dipping sauce.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The wall of bowls and the decor</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and lighting were all pretty cool.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Oddly, at both Bill's and Noodies there were mosquitos.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
At Bill's, Jon was eaten a little.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
At Noodies, Jon killed a mosquito and the lady tourists</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
sitting next to us cheered and offered to give him a wet nap or something.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He went to the bathroom to wash his hands.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Noodies was pretty good.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We'll be back.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Plus they are on Seamless.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They could come to us too!</div>

Okay. It's the third biggest jackpot</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
in PowerBall history.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Someone's gotta win this one. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Maybe me?</div>

It's like that time we went down the shore</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and saw two Hercules movies that launched</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the TV series.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Our luck was unbelievable that we stumbled across this</div>

wealth of wonderful TV!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hercules!, Kevin Sorbo, and Xena (pre-Xena), Lucy Lawless,</div>

you guys are awesome.</div>

yes, that is a bust of Mr. T in a Chinese Communist hat </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My cousin Samantha asked me to draw</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
a little bow so she could bring</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to get tattooed.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She said she wanted it drawn by someone she loved.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Aww. (That's me!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I drew a bunch of them with a</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Chinese calligraphy brush so she can pick the best one</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to her taste.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The final result?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Well I'd have to figure out</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
how to get the photo she texted me on this blog,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so that'll have to wait for another time,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but it did turn out pretty cool.</div>

So in Florida there's this thing called happy hour</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and you get discounted appetizers</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and two for one drinks,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
where you get those two drinks</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
at the same time,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so you'd better drink up that one beer</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
if you want to drink that second one while it's still cold.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My cousin Steven got a bucket of fun (or 32 oz of love).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was orange creamsicle flavored with marshmallow vodka.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He loved it.</div>

The minivan we rented for the six of us</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
was actually quite big.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We called her the gray whale.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
With two clicks of a button on the remote,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
both side doors opened or closed and as well as the trunk</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(depending on which button you pushed).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was so freakin cool.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But really, it was like driving a bus.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We passed by smaller and shorter SUVs and laughed at</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
their inferiority and puniness.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
With the environmental/gas-saving thing on,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
we save half a tank of gas,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
which sucked for us since we prepaid.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anyway, after birthday lunch</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(which was sponsored by Wee!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Thanks, Wee!),</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
we went to the outlet mall.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The gray whale smelled like a drunk bus though.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And I was getting quite queasy.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was a little rough when I had to roll up the windows because</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
of a downpour that we had to drive through,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but we made it in one piece</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and bought out the place!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Steven treated me to not one, but TWO pairs of shoes!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Such a good birthday!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I wish I could have one every day!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(Like two of these bags are actually mine.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But it's a deceptively funny photo, isn't it?)</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
On my last Friday as a twenty-nine year old,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I received a bouquet of flowers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I nearly dropped the ball on this one though.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
An unrecognizable phone number kept calling my cell phone,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but when it called my work,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I was like WTF? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Who could this possibly be?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And why don't they just leave a message?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Turns out it was the flower delivery dude.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had no idea who they were from.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And I thought that perhaps he just go the wrong person.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Jon had tried sending flowers to work</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
when I interned at the TimeWarner Book Group (now Hachette)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the summer I turned twenty-one.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think I got them the next day--a little worn for the wear</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
of being traveled around in the hot June weather.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They were from Dani, Sarm, and Hetal! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Such awesome, awesome ladies.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Aren't the flowers just gorgeous?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love the peach.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's vibrant and happy and summery and fun.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Last year I bought myself two dozen peachy/orange roses.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was so nice that someone else thought to give me flowers!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love flowers!</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I wish I could've brought them to Florida with me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When I got them at work, I set them on my desk</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and every time I looked up it reminded me of how awesome</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
my friends are and how turning thirty isn't so bad.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They love me anyway.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I brought them home,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and set them in the corner of the computer screen/our TV.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Happy flowers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

and gave them to her since I couldn't bring them to Florida.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It brightened my day,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and rather than wilt and die in my apartment while I was gone,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hoped to brighten hers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When dropping off an invoice that she signed off on,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
my department head mentioned that I was called out in <i>Short Seller</i>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
At first I wasn't really sure what she meant--</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
was this a book review site and she meant one of my books was called out?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And then I realized she meant that it was a book I was a copy editor for last July or so.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I remember this book pretty well now</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
because I had to ask Jon a lot of questions about stocks and math.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He helped me put together those Excel charts--or "impressive mathematical charts!"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also had to ask Dani questions about mono since the main character has mono,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and the doctor in the book seemed to be convinced that she was cured after she had a blood test.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have no idea how my queries are resolved,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but I hope to find a copy and reread it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was good and interesting!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

The two star review is by some mean person who has no interest in the topic.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope more people read it and enjoy it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Maybe the image I'm posting is bad, so:</div>

"A big thanks to everyone at Simon & Schuster who worked on this book, especially Christina Solazzo, whose copyedtiing went above and beyond (and involved a number of impressive mathematical charts!)."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So freakin' cool!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That's me!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My first summer Friday this year</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
was so much fun.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I just wish I'd worn a jacket.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was basically freezing if you wander out without one,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and it rained a ton.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The best part of the day was when we holed up</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
in the back of a cafe in LIC</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
that played some great music.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For lunch Pam, Kat, and I went to M.Wells at P.S. 1 MoMA,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and it was quite delicious.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Bryan met up with us shortly after,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and we explored the museum.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One of the rooms was a room of ice.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I believe they were glacier specimens from an old glacier,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but it was too cold to really figure it all out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Another room had global trashcans.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Some had actual trash (from snarky visitors I suppose.)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The building is much like the grammar school I went to,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
though there are two sets of stairs,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and two stairwells in each corner.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It seemed a bit excessive.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The art in the halls was much more enlivening</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
than my grammar school's halls though.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As part of the rain exihibit at the MoMA in Manhattan,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
there's this other exhibit at P.S. 1.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Basically in the atrium part,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
they built an indoor pond with koi fish (see above).</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLqPvcIf3kQ2-QPxwtdKqqbptHOEZVfiMfiy3lyy-vIJEuAmjBiFvh6LjCvHpZ41Iu1uTDBB6tyBiQ6pkJsZzpvtten3Ekm0cJ9ctdzls5ORwjaffQgVjv0V33Q5Zh7m2hJPTi/s1600/IMG_20130524_143830.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLqPvcIf3kQ2-QPxwtdKqqbptHOEZVfiMfiy3lyy-vIJEuAmjBiFvh6LjCvHpZ41Iu1uTDBB6tyBiQ6pkJsZzpvtten3Ekm0cJ9ctdzls5ORwjaffQgVjv0V33Q5Zh7m2hJPTi/s640/IMG_20130524_143830.jpg" width="480" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And a waterfall.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am not so much into standing around and reading about the art</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
as much as I am about seeing and taking in the art.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've not had a chance to read about it,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but experiencing it was pretty cool.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The cold weather and the rain and the constant waterfall sounds though,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
well, good thing there were some bathrooms around.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One other cool thing was the boiler room.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One of the pieces had saliva in it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You just have to wonder why and where and why.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After lunch, museum viewing, and cafe catching up,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
we headed into the city and join Nat and Dani</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(Kat went home)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
for dinner at Empellon</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
to celebrate an intimate birthday dinner with Pam.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The food was good, but it was all a bit expensive and loud,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and I wished it were just as cozy and low key as the cafe.</div>

I spy an oversize banana,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
which could only be:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Some marketing folks from Netflix!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They were giving out stuff earlier,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but by the end of the day there was a line to take a photo</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
with some strangers.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And on my way home,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
outside of Letterman, I saw</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.lukebryan.com/">Luke Bryan</a>!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(I've never heard of him,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but people seemed enamored.)</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So we're fortunate enough to have cool things like</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
this come to our building's gym.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And luckily we didn't have other plans</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and the weather was pretty terrible,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so I went to both of these classes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The class was wonderful!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I forgot how choreography is almost cerebral.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's memorizing and understanding steps and movements,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
then adding more.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've been taking dance classes for years now,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and I've not had to memorize a routine since high school.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've always just followed the instructor in the front.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But today I felt my brain working.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
John was very nice</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and his choreography worked surprisingly well with different genres</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
of music.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We kept doing the same few steps over and over,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and he built on it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In total it was about 20 steps </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(8 counts each, so about two minutes worth of music)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and then it looped again.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So much fun!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
During the stretch portion of class,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
he noted that my pointe</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(when you point your toes)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
was very good and that I must've danced before.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He said very few people are born with a naturally good pointe.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ah, all those years of pointing paid off!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A bonus of both of these classes was that</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=jessica+williams&rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS503US504&aq=f&oq=jessica+williams&aqs=chrome.0.57j5j0l2j62l2.6189j0&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8">Jessica Williams</a> from <i>The Daily Show </i>was in attendance!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She's quite tall.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I couldn't place where I'd seen her for a short while,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but then after ruling out everyone at work and friends of friends</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and moving on to TV and movies,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it just made sense.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She's really pretty and is a good dancer.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It'd be fun to have her in more of my gym classes.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The pool in our health club opened today!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's not even 70 degrees out!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We went to the free party, which featured</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
some delicious little bites of lamb</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
on vegetables and a dab of something delicious.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Um, it was delicious.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And there were three different liquor tastings,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
including the lovely gin and tonic drink above.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The gin drink was refreshing, but it wasn't as flavorful as my Hendricks.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The best part was the live music:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
these two guys playing and singing Latin music.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And, of course, the snocones by <a href="http://handsomedansstand.com/">Handsome Dan</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
A block of ice turned into magic fluffy snow</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
covered in sugary raspberry syrup and fresh lemon juice.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think he kind of looks like <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=jake+gyllenhaal&rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS503US504&aq=0&oq=jake+g&aqs=chrome.0.0j57j5j0j62l2.2380j0&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8">Jake Gyllenhaal</a>,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so you might want to check him out</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and eat his snocones in real life.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i>Hello!</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had another snocone because it was FREE</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and so good.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(A pomegranate with condensed milk--</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Handsome Dan explained that the pomegranate was a bit tart</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so the milk will set it off--so cute, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I just want to suck on sugary ice!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Since <i>someone</i> couldn't eat all the delicious snocone stuff or drink</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and had allergies, we left after the guys played <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=labamba&rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS503US504&aq=f&oq=labamba&aqs=chrome.0.57j0j5j0.1763j0&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8">"La Bamba."</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://everylifeeveryfun.blogspot.com/2013/05/firstworldproblems.html">Poor guy.</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Another reason for leaving was that it was really awkward</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
watching the swimsuit models freeze.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I should probably look it up.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This statue that was outside of Christie's last year</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
demonstrates how I feel about a lot of things,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but mostly <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2013/05/02/fashion/the-prom-ask-becomes-a-big-production.html?smid=tw-nytimes&_r=1&">this article about prom</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I asked Jon to my prom after an evening</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
of browsing some galleries in Chelsea</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
in the fall of 2000.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We had sort of started really dating by then,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and I was optimistic it'd last for at least seven more months.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He didn't want me to go to his prom.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It hurt my feelings at the time,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but now I see that it probably was for the best.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The generation of kids in the article are unusual.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I spoke to someone who is about a decade younger than I am,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and she had no clue who <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=she-ra&aq=f&oq=she-ra&aqs=chrome.0.57j62l3.897j0&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8">She-Ra</a> is.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
She-Ra tells you her life story in the introduction--with a cute outfit change:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/wR65P73X5GI" width="420"></iframe></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Good.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now we all know who She-Ra is.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Do these kids' superheroes do everything with a huge song and dance</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
worthy of the typical tropes of reality TV?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We went to <a href="http://chezsardine.com/#/home">Chez Sardine</a> for Joy's 30th birthday dinner.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was a nice intimate affair</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
with great travel stories that featured</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
a lot of food</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and a delicious array of food and drinks in our mouths</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
that filled our bellies.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was some good celebrating.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I made the card above in the morning:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Liberty of London stationery carved into a 3 and 0.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I wanted more space to write</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the secret thing I've been writing in my cards</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so I didn't cut out the 0.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I rather like how it looks still filled in</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and unmarred by the 0's gash.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
What do you think?</div>

When I got back to work from my freakin' awesome</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
latest adventure in Tokyo and Taipei,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had a chair of work waiting for me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Jon balked at how much paperwork this was.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
He doesn't really work with paper.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I got through most of it that morning.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It made me feel like this:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's poetry month!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think the only publisher who actually celebrates this month is</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Random House.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I get a poem a day from them</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
for the month of April every year</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
in my e-mail.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's a lovely thing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anyway, I'm not sure how prolific I will be this month,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but here are two poems</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
just for you:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"Two Cats"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
*(Wee came up with the first two lines.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When I asked her what she does when she's sad,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
she said she hugs her cats.)</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Dead Bird"</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
*(It's about the dead bird I saw this morning of all mornings.)</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm a little rusty at writing poetry, </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so just laugh with me.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Okay, here goes:</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Two Cats</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats are better than one</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats are so much fun</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats, paired like peas in a pod</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats, neither of them are named Todd</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Two cats, frowning at your skeptical face</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Two cats, next on <i>The Amazing Race</i></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Two cats hike the Appalachian Trail</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Two cats will never fail</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats are asleep in your shoes</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats got into your booze</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats think your stupid joke is funny</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats fart after tasting honey</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Buht, buht</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Buht, buht</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Buht</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats slide through a box</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats chase the fox</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats love, love, love fish</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats, they share a <i>splish!</i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats nap on your head</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats, they pretend that you're dead</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats are better than one</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Two cats are so much fun</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Dead Bird</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Oh, bird.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You once took flight,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
high up in the air,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
morning, noon, and night.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
You loved what you did,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
though perhaps a little too much.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now you're feeling</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
a bit out of touch.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As they saying goes:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Pimpin' aint eazy.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But just keep swimming,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
just keep swimming,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and life was but a dream. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Naw mean, bra?</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Jon and I ordered a few bunches</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
of these new bluenanas</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
before they ran out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As a blue food they're supposedly</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
very high in antioxidants</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and very good for memory, diabetes, and everything.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also read that even though the plant</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
is carnivorous, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
it only eats Smurfs,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so humans wandering </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
through a bluenana grove</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
are safe, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and it helps keep the Smurf population down, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
thankfully.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6We7QPod9WrRan7Fu2aj2JvPDq0prRirD2VncWmdB3WRQfKVFm4sR0xx7s3ofu9iw30SfBQZwS8jeuHBLJ6X1ibDGAsQt-Zd2HHWPCnoASz5iEoAf-djpHI2eFtR4Jwl57QxH/s1600/april+fools.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="590" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6We7QPod9WrRan7Fu2aj2JvPDq0prRirD2VncWmdB3WRQfKVFm4sR0xx7s3ofu9iw30SfBQZwS8jeuHBLJ6X1ibDGAsQt-Zd2HHWPCnoASz5iEoAf-djpHI2eFtR4Jwl57QxH/s640/april+fools.png" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But in all actuality,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Jon was pretty excited about this</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
until he realized it was a joke.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'd warned him this morning not to be fooled too!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now he's a bit disappointed.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If bluenanas tasted anything</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
like bananas and blueberries,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'd be very disappointed they didn't actually exist too,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
but who knows, man?!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
