Lists

Best right now in Minnesota:

1. My family
2. Food. I always eat my way though my vacations here.
3. Snow. Beautiful trees everywhere.
4. Scrabble, movies, books. The things I don’t have time for.
5. Having a hurt tooth and * poof * dentist appointment mere hours later.

Worst things in Minnesota:

1. Opportunity. Not enough.
2. Style. Not enough.
3. Oh boy.

Best things in New York:

1. My love-er-ly friends
2. Always seeming to run into new opportunities and the same people. There is something very comforting in that.
3. Trader Joes
4. Youth- everywhere.
5. The feeling that anything and everything is possible.
6. Being able to identify instantly anyone who does not live in New York

Most annoying things in New York:

1. Unknown liquid. Especially if it drips on you. Especially in the subways.
2. Anywhere on 7th between 32nd and 52nd.
3. Single women. They are everywhere.
4. Crack heads. Crack heads eating chicken wings and drinking Snapple next to you on the L train.
5. Speaking of the L train, I loath at night between 1st Ave and Bedford stops when it feels like you could walk faster than the train. They always say it is running slower due to an “earlier incident.” That excuse only works for so long. I do not believe it any longer.

Resolutions for 2008:

1. Do not read anymore “tabloid” blogs.- Perez Hilton, D-listed, etc. (Gothamist and Gawker do not count).
2. Date. Date in 2008. I will put myself out there and not compare everyone to James.
3. Go to a figure drawing class, join a book club, volunteer- find another niche.
4. Take batter care of myself. More sleep, better food, and exercise. Floss.
5. Buy a push scooter. Is that a resolution?
