Days go by

I'm suddenly very paranoid about my lack of a decent memory. Sometimes friends or family bring up past events, and I either can't remember when they happened, or if they happened at all! This worries me greatly. I believe that our memories are all we have. If I can't remember what happened on my 16th birthday, then it's kind of like it never existed. For this reason I have always wanted to keep a diary, but I don't have the discipline.

My new goal is to create a log of events that I can and would like to remember starting from this year and going back as far as I can. It won't be descriptive like a journal, more like a timeline with dates, locations, and people. Hopefully I can stick to this goal. The exercise might even help to dredge up some memories that are slowly fading. I would also like to eventually include lists of dreams I've had, movies I've watched, and books I've read. Once I'm caught up to the present, I think I will be motivated to keep going with will be a more detailed journal.

Seven things NOT to say to your Girlfriend (or a Girl that you are trying to hit on):

7) Did you just drop a bomb? (translation: Did you just fart?)
6) Oh look, my cat's eyes are bluer than yours!
5) No matter what I eat I just can't gain weight!
4) No offense, but you really need a tan.
3) No offense, but [insert pretty much any phrase].
2) Are your boobs getting smaller?
1) How's that diet going?

(Yes, these are actual statements directed towards me by the opposite sex)

Carrie Bradshaw wannabe

So many things to buy, so little funds. The only activity that satisfies my compulsion for spending is to fill up online shopping carts and then abandon them. It's so tragic. Here's what I've been eyeing lately. I might never be able to have them, but at least they will be immortalized on my insignificant blog...



Sigh...
