Leviticus 19:28
I've had this idea ever since a youth minister/family friend saw my tattoos and told me to read Leviticus 19:28. I bet he thought it would change my life and I would regret all my sins, because I'm so religious.... Wrong. Instead I've found some humor in this, and it has since inspired a new tattoo.

Steps for forwarding forwards
1. Don't do it.
2. See #1.
3. If you must disobey 1 and 2, cut yourself.
4. Put some effort into cleaning up the email:
-- a) Remove all but one instance of "Fwd" from the subject. I don't need to be told 20 times that what I'm about to think about reading is a forward. Once is more than enough, and will also increase the likelihood that I will actually open the email.
-- b) Remove everything between the original "Forwarded Message" (or appropriate counterpart) line and the actual content of the email itself. I don't need to see 50 emails of people I don't know or will every meet, nor do I need to hear about how funny or emotional the 4th person before you thought the email was. And I don't want to scroll down 8374 lines before I read two paragraphs about brass monkeys.
-- c) Remove any grotesque and unnecessary middle school styling and graphics. I can read something just fine without it being 137pt font, bold and bright red. And I'm not 4 years old - I don't need a little fuzzy rabbit holding a candy cane to make me laugh. Actually, ctrl-A + Delete is a fine key combination to properly format any forward.
If you fail to put an effort to number 4, I will delete your supposed life changing forward, and write your name on the board with 3 checks after it, since that will clearly meet your level of mental understanding for being bad.

29 days
What a weekend! Bar and sushi Wednesday after work with the crew plus Julie was in town from New Orleans. Thursday was dinner and waaaaaay too much cider and catch phrase (if there is such a thing as too much). Friday we all just bummed around on the couch till dinner at the Mexican joint. Saturday was Pyramid Alehouse for dinner then the Seattle Underground Tour, where I discovered the whores back in the 1800's were older leftovers from San Fransico. Afterwards we found a bar that is Minnesota themed with Leinie's, cheese curds and Ambo-like pizza. God it was awesome! Too bad it's on the north side so a driver is required, but what can ya do? Today was spent just bummin' around. Although I have started a 'complicated' long distance relationship, and it definitely has potential to turn into something amazing... so we'll see. ;) Although we still have 29 days till our first official date.

Wisconsin was good for something...
This has been an amazing couple of weeks. The future is looking bright(er than usual), and I'm feeling a level of happiness I haven't felt in a while. Is it cheesy? Sure, but that's just how I roll. We'll see what happens over the next couple of months, so for now I'll enjoy my Mega Fun Dough and Slinky Jr! :)

Just another day in the conf. room. But my boss claims tomorrow we can do new stuff. I say I'll believe it when I see it...
Ahh well. Tonight I have whiskey, and that's all I need right now. That, and a good massage, and a good lady friend, and a million dollars. But I'll settle for whiskey.
