It’s late and I can’t sleep. I should be tired, I worked all night. I had a hard night last night, and I’ve been a little down about my friend. I am also wrestling with some weird personal stuff that I may get around to writing about, maybe not. Maybe it’s just the good old family insomnia (thanks Mom, thanks Grandma) but I can’t sleep. So here’s some of the stuff rolling around in my head.<\/p>\n
One<\/b> To become a member of Mensa<\/a> you have to have a tested IQ in the 98th percentile. You also have to pay membership fees!<\/i> Doing so should immediately disqualify someone as a genius, as far as I’m concerned.<\/p>\n Two<\/b> We get cats tomorrow. Jessie and Nug. I bet they are not nearly as cool as Thomas, but we’ll see.<\/p>\n Three<\/b> I’m re-reading Ludlum’s The Bourne Identity.<\/i> There’s an upcoming adaptation starring Matt Damon and the girl from Run Lola Run.<\/i> I just don’t see it though. I read it several years ago, and then, as now, Jason Bourne in my head looks a little like a young Robert Redford.<\/p>\n Four<\/b> I am also reading Steve Martin’s Shopgirl<\/i> which is absolutely charming. For the first three chapters, I could hear Steve Martin nararrting in my head as I was reading, like a voice over by him from a movie. Weird.<\/p>\n Five<\/b> Reading two books at once isn’t whats keeping me up at night. I am almost positive. I think.<\/p>\n Six<\/b> Sifl and Olly are the two funniest socks in the history of man. Kevin<\/a> unearthed some old episodes on tape, and we’ve been watching and shooting milk out of our noses. I don’t even drink milk (I’m allergic).<\/p>\n Seven<\/b> I met a young woman tonight, which is not that unusual since I work in a bar (its official policy to refer to it as “the club”). She had absolutely the most beautiful laugh in the history of man. It sparkled. I hope she comes back, just so I can make her laugh again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s late and I can’t sleep. I should be tired, I worked all night.
