"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." -Mark Twain

2 days to Hurricane Season
NOAA has officially predicted a "Very Active 2006 North Atlantic Hurricane Season". Go ahead, run out and buy water for 50 people. Or at least make sure you own a flashlight.
Alternatively, like some I know, you could take this chance to move to a geographic area not threatened by hurricanes on a weekly basis for almost half the year.
I do know that after last year, most of us will never see tropical storm season quite the same way again. I don't have to use the excuse that getting older is calming or sobering my thoughts. Last year scared the *&#%@$! out of me, and I saw the lives of several close friends massively changed. While having hurricane parties in the face of worry can be therapeutic, the whole thing will have a bitter taste this year...

Bloody mary me
This is a little ridiculous, but I do like bloody marys, so I guess it's okay... Seriously though, I have less time to drink than anyone I know. I can't think of the last time I actually went out seriously drinking. It was a long time ago...
| You Are a Bloody Mary |
 You're a fairly serious drinker, who's experimented a lot with different drinks. You're a drunk, but a stable drunk. You don't ever let your drinking get out of control. |
Only child
So that's a little scary.. The gadget knows me!
| You Are Likely an Only Child |
 At your darkest moments, you feel frustrated. At work and school, you do best when you're organizing. When you love someone, you tend to worry about them. In friendship, you are emotional and sympathetic. Your ideal careers are: radio announcer, finance, teaching, ministry, and management. You will leave your mark on the world with organizational leadership, maybe as the author of self-help books. |
