Appetizer
When was the last time you had your hair cut/trimmed?
It’s been a few months. Maybe early May. I could use another one. It’s pretty hot here.
Soup
Name one thing you miss about being a child.
Not having to work or pay bills.
Salad
Pick one: butter, margarine, olive oil.
EVOO
Main Course
If you could learn another language, which one would you pick and why?
I already started to learn Portuguese. It’d be really cool to keep up with it so I can use it when I go visit BRASIL!
Dessert
Finish this sentence: In 5 years I expect to be...
working full-time, married, living in a different city.

I’m working on new designs for the ByRequestLive site (and subsequently a new blog! :o ) You can really see the progression of what all I’ve learned in the past few months. It’s a big change.
The site should go live within the next few days (as a cause of admin password resets to my computer hmph).
In any case, it’s near completion. So now I can work on a redesign of this blog.
Suggestions are highly encouraged.
Check back. I’m sure I’ll have a few notes from the Obama speech.

Love me or leave me: This is my cubby. Room for thoughts and meandering.

In college, a professor of mine told us in class one day that if we wrote down our life goals and carried them along with us, there would be a higher likelihood of us achieving them because they would serve as a constant reminder of our passions. I wrote mine down a few years ago on my computer stickies. Looking at them a few days ago, I realized that I need to be realistic about a few.

Julie’s on this Photography craze, taking millions of photos of Brian. So I had my little cameo.
Yup. In a Jackie O phase. Gotta love the oversized glasses. They’re CHOICE!
