It's been a weird week. A childhood friend's dad was buried today and during last night's visitation I saw many people I haven't seen in years. That got me thinking:
1. Life is entirely too short for everybody
2. I'm probably the most blessed person I know
3. Funeral visitations are the best place to socialize (honestly...where else will you see people you haven't seen in years and actually be in a situation to sit down and talk to them beyond 'How are you'?)
4. The nicest artists are usually the most gifted (and thankful)
5. We're screwed if Sarah Palin...uh, I mean McCain, wins the election
6. Being a liberal stands in stark contrast to my increasingly conservative family
7. I'm so thankful it wasn't my dad in that solid copper coffin
8. Dogs are much easier to deal with than children...on so many levels...and they're cheaper, too
9. Doctor turned DEA agent is weird
10. Cop turned golf pro is even weirder
11. Drummer turned librarian - weirdest of all
12. What are the situations that make us feel old?
13. SEE #11
14. The Dalai Lama is very, very wise
15. Computers are overrated
16. September 11th should be a national holiday

9/11 is a holiday. It's Patriot Day.
Let me clarify - it needs to be a national holiday where people go the hell home - no work - like Labor Day or Memorial Day.
