I’m sure my wife wishes she could answer this for me.

1. On occasion, I’ve been known to correct my wife’s grammar.
2. I tend to set my alarm for 5:00 a.m., and then hit the snooze button two or three times.
3. I read my rough drafts before I finish them.
4. I have the amazing ability to answer yes-or-no questions in 1,500 words.
5. In 35 years I haven’t yet manage to check that my zippers up before leaving the house.

she is not going to post anything for Terry.
that would be grounds for a very long pout from Terry.
especially in his birthday week.
at least wait a few days.
also? That list she made for herself? that is a very good list. Very much like this list I would have made for her if I thought any of her habits are even remotely annoying.
which i obviously don’t.
carry on.

…though my lovely and adoring wife would really rather post these for me, I will post my own as if I knew what they were…

1. long, rambling, nonsensical email messages and/or phone messages…
2. always I wait until I am mr. scruffy-looking before I get my hair cut or trim my facial hair
3. i do not care for pancakes
4. often cannot take self seriously
5. (okay, I’ll give Sarah this one) does not always close the container when removing and replacing items in the fridge…

bonus annoying habit…

6. does not always answer question of the month promptly

That figures, that I’d leave that one piece of info off.
Right now is the submission phase, which ends at midnight, July 17th. As soon as the clock ticks 12:01am on the 18th, voting begins.
As it’s now only a week away, I’m writing on the other things that I have up there, and am considering also submitting my poetry, and, if I can finish it, a story I wrote that is set in the 19th century, a “bodice-ripper”, I guess I’d call it.

Well, the universe gave me a gift today and finally let me see this video! I think it’s great. Really. The boys got good flavah (someone just walked past my office — an older black woman who has worked here forever — and gave me a thumbs-up) good. The vocalist? Well, she’s brave. Courage takes you far. I could use more, myself.

I applaud them all.

Ha! That’s a great story, and a great line from the doctor. When you build your great solar project with coffee cans, I’m posting a picture of it!

Yeah, probably better not to ask the boss how you can horse around on the internet at work.

I will miss you this weekend. Maybe I’ll have to get up to Chicago.
