I have to read 2 books at the same time.

I know what you're thinking... one is probably a dictionary right?

Well you're wrong!!

I'm actually reading a Nicholas Sparks book Nights in Rodanthe.... the movie is coming out with Richard Gere and that darn Diane Lane who all the boys love so much and I want to refresh my brain on the story. Anyways, I'm not the biggest fan of Miss Lane but Richard Gere is good looking in my book.

So I'm reading this and because it's Sparks of course it's a sappy love story and gets mushy at parts and I feel like I may throw up right on the pages. So to bring me back to normal... I'm also reading Moneyball. I know, why would a Giants fan read a book about the A's and their manger and blah blah blah. Well Jamie suggested it, and it's baseball season so I want to read something about baseball and how many Babe Ruth stories can one person take? It's just very interesting how statistically speaking the A's should be total losers, but they actually win a crap load of games. So far so good.

I'm enjoying both books and it's nice for me to have a balance in what I'm reading.

Oh, and just a sidenote... who knew that Ethan Hawk was a writer? He has at least 3 novels that I now know of... it's on my list of books to read this summer, but I was very surprised (in a good way) to see that he's an established author. I'm bursting with fruit flavor already. (What's that from?? Hint: Hello, you've reached the winter of our discontent)

Pieces,
Kath

Things on my mind

Getting crafty
Whenever I'm standing in Michael's, for some reason I think that I could be amazing at anything in there. Like I would be the best painter but I don't know it because I don't have the tools to try it.
Flowers
Sure, I love flowers. But I would rather have someone spend $2.50 getting me my favorite drink than try and remember which kind of flowers I like best.
Being the "Mix Master"
On the first draft of EVERY mix I make, The Weepies always make an appearance. It's hard to keep them out of a mix.
I'm not a french woman.
I have the corresponding face for the corresponding emotion. I don't play games, and that's not fun. Why don't I know this?? I love sports!! I'm such an idiot. Wait, is that like a french woman? I'm confused...
Blink 182 woot woot!
I can't wait for the reunion! And no, I'm not worried their new stuff won't be as good. People said that about Weezer, and I heart their new album so HA!
I know 9 people named Mike.
And not one of them goes by Michael. 6 of them live elsewhere, but 3 live within minutes of me. It's time they all get strange nicknames. How many words rhyme with Mike?
The sandwich shop where they watch sports.
It's one my favorite places. A bunch of guys making sandwiches watching ESPN all day. If they had better chips, it would be perfect.
Lollipops and adults.
I get really grossed out when I see adults sucking on lollipops in public. I guess I just associate a lollipop with kids. Even Kramer in the episode "The Betrayal" creeps me out.
My system is crashing
And not even the amazingly adorable guys at the Apple Store could fix it. I wish they could...
Timing.
Everything, yes EVERYTHING in life is about timing. Right place, right time determines it all. There is no rhyme or reason why things "work out" the way that they do... it's all about timing. Right?
Waiting.
In a parking lot. It takes 5 seconds to let the car that has already begun backing up to finish. When you speed by, I say awful things about you. Stop it.
Cops
I get scared whenever I see a cop. I feel that they can hear everything I say and I also feel that they can read lips. Me around a cop means everyone else is laughing. I freak out.
Chronic Dissatisfaction. Charmingly Awkward.
I think that's what I have. I'm chronically dissatisfied. I think I need someone who is charmingly awkward. Is that a good combo?
My best day:
Starts with an iced americano and something to read, and ends with sports center and good conversation.
Dragging your feet.
Do you ever find yourself walking down the street and enjoying the atmosphere and then hear someone behind (or in front of) you dragging their feet? As a dancer, and a human, it drives me nuts.
Walking out the right door
Some places have double doors, and keep only one door unlocked. I hate that. I like to always walk out the RIGHT door because that's the side of the road you drive on. This also applies to walking.

Obvious and Contagious

My life is more than just sandwiches and cereal.
