long time no blog

so, it's kinda been awhile since i last blogged. a lot has happened since then. here's the highlights. (and i use that word loosely)

**it's sorta a miracle, but i now like coffee. for years i've been trying a little sip every few weeks or so, hoping i'll suddenly like it. then, a couple of weeks ago, i took one of these said periodic sips and loved it. it's like there was some sort of threshold or something. next up: tea.

**my friend faith flew out from new york city a couple of weekends ago so we could film our audition video for the amazing race. so we'll see on that one...keeping our fingers crossed though!

**this morning was one of those perfect mornings, complete with a nice scrambled eggs breakfast. and unbelievable coffee:)

**right now i'm making me some corn on the cob. nothing says summer like some sweet corn on the cob. pun intended. ha.

**i got my first ticket a couple weeks ago. freakin officer ortiz busted me for a u-turn. at first i was kinda annoyed, but then i realized that paying the ticket would be like paying a quarter for every traffic infraction i've ever done. and that seems totally reasonable, so i'm over it.

**i got the special edition dvd of napoleon dynamite. many people dump on that movie, but i think it's 100% hilarious. it gets better and better with every viewing. in fact, i don't think its genius can be accurately described with mere words.

**i've heard rumblings that my hometown of clinton, illinois may soon be getting a 5 screen movie theater. i'm not sure what i think about that. while it may be cool for all the people who live there and spend their existence in a constant state of pure boredom, there's something not quite right about a 3 stop light town having a movie theater. too progressive? i don't know.

**the last couple days i've been thinking of how i'll turn 24 next month. that's weird. official mid-twenties...is it possible to be dreading something and looking forward to it at the same time? I mean, mid-twenties seems soooo old, but at the same time it's kinda fun to grow up.

peace.
