My cousin Samantha tagged me for the 8 things meme. It's pretty low-key, but this is all I can manage for an early Monday morning.
1. I played Rock Band for the first time on Saturday. I now get what all the fuss is about.
2. The other day, I hit 1,000 tweets on my twitter page.
3. I'm an amazing editor/proofreader if I'm evaluating someone else's work. When it comes to my own stuff, though, I'm utterly hopeless.
4. I'm getting restless without new tv. Two weeks...
5. I may be a music snob, but I'm the kind of music snob that really truly loves listening to the radio.
6. I keep my tickets from everything--movie passes, TRAX stubs, and plays. I have saved every single fortune I get from fortune cookies.
7. Speaking of fortune cookies, I think they taste delicious. I also eat the entire fortune cookie before reading the fortune, because I believe that's the only way it will come true. ("I'm not superstitious, but I'm...I am a little stitious.")
8. Fall Semester at my alma mater starts today. It's the first September in over sixteen years where I haven't gone to school, and while this makes me mostly overjoyed, it also makes me more sad than I anticipated.
Labels: Lists, Memes are fun, TV
Like you, I love the taste of fortune cookies and am sad that school has started without me this fall. I am also an awesome proofreader when it comes to anyone but my own writing.
Hrm.

Okay, I've never played Rock Band, BUT I have recently become addicted to Guitar Hero, so I think I understand.
I ate a fortune cookie this morning and I waited until I swallowed it before I read the fortune (your inspiration). Wouldn't you know, though, it was one of those dumb general wisdom-type fortunes. "Stop and smell the roses," or something like that.

Congrats on the 1,000 tweets. I just passed 2,000 and I didn't do a celebratory tweet. Damnit.
