You might think I have ADD

But really, I don't have anything of length to report about one matter but a few items to note on a couple. So, I give up a blog of blurbs.

Yesterday I had a HUGE meeting. One of my volunteers comes in the office to drop something off prior to the meeting. Norm is an old guy but very sweet. When you ask him how he is, he always says, "Fantastic, but I'll get better!" See how cute he is!? I go to give him a hug and he kisses me on the cheek and says, "Do you know how much I appreciate you? Do you feel appreciated?" I felt very appreciated and I honestly think the entire exchange is responsible for my attitdue adjustment that made the meeting go so well. I went into it thinking that no matter how bad it may have been, Norm kissed me on the cheek today and told me he appreciated me. That was all I needed.

You know how shopping hungry at the grocery store is just trouble? Bad news. Yeah, well the same can be said for shopping hungry while surfing Amazon.com. I just bought three movies, two of which completely focus on food. I got Big Night and Like Water for Chocolate. I must watch them after I eat. I also threw in Il Postino. Not becasue it has anything to do with food but because it has everything to do with Pablo Neruda, who I love almost as much as food.

There are many creepy men out there! Many of them!I dont' understand creepy. Can someone please explain creepy to me? Do these guys know they're being creepy? Is it intentional? Were they raised by wolves? What? What lead them astray so severly? I just want some answers folks!

Three excellent movies and a phenomenal poet. You have to make the pasta after you watch Big Night. Or find a restaurant that serves it. And as far as creepy men go, isn't it relative? Creepy is in the eye of the beholder.

Edith Piaf, and now Neruda? Sometimes things get spooky...and Rosemary Clooney - tell me you love her definitive version of "Someone to Watch Over Me" and we will have to do some serious chatting...

i love BIg Night. Love. Big. Night.
