Touche, Bill. But time has nothing to do with my blog profligracy lately...it's all about motivation, baby. And lately I'd rather say nothing than struggle to say something stupid. Having said that...
A. Four Jobs I’ve Had:
1. Daycare assistant
2. Line cook
3. Inside Salesman
4. Facilities Summer Hire, Motorola
B. Four Movies I’ll Watch Over and Over:
1. Anchorman
2. Tron
3. The Empire Strikes Back
4. Swingers
C. Four Places I Call(ed) Home:
1. Lombard, IL
2. Bloomington, IN (4 different residences!)
3. Naperville, IL
4. I've actually only lived 3 places. Perhaps Glen Ellyn, IL counts, too, since I spent an inordinate amount of time at my then-girlfriend's house there while we were dating.
While I'm on the subject, I have to say that one of the unexpected benefits of being married is how quaint and cute terms like "girlfriend" seem once you've moved past them. When I hear people talk about their boyfriend/girlfriends now, I feel bemused in a way that stops just short of being condescending. No offense to anyone, but marriage is a big deal, and I am proud that I've taken the plunge. And I'm enjoying it. And no, my wife never reads this. Which means I'm p****-whipped.
D. Four TV Shows I Love:
1. Good Eats with Alton Brown
2. Dog Whisperer (Nat'l Geographic Channel, check it out the guy has the Jedi mind shit)
3. Curb Your Enthusiasm
4. Scrubs
E. Four Places I’ve Been on Vacation:
1. London, England (South Kensington area)
2. Italy
3. Jacksonville, FL
4. San Francisco, CA
F. Four Websites I Visit Daily:
1. sportsguy.net
2. Google
3. soccernet.com
4. thehardballtimes.com
G. My Four Favorite Foods:
1. Aurelio's pizza
2. grilled pork tenderloin (uh, my secret recipe)
3. Yoplait Strawberry Custard-Style yogurt
4. chili
H. Four Places I Would Rather Be Right Now:
1. London, England
2. Berlin, Germany (only if I'd be staying through the World Cup)
3. Trunk Bay, St. John, USVI
4. (tie) San Francisco, CA (visiting Pete), Daytona Beach, FL (visiting Bill)
