Things that make me happy lately

I think my last post got a little too much about finances and how they were making me happy.  Well there are things besides money that make me happy.  This is a nice stream of consciousness list.

Blues Traveler:  This always makes me happy.  Some of the greatest moments in my life were at BT shows.  For those who have seen Citizen Kane if I ever have a rosebud moment at my death it will probably be the name of a BT song thinking back at a show.

Love Monkey: I loved ED and Tom Cavanaugh may actually be my favorite actor right now.  The guy is a strange mix of John Cusack and John Favreau.  The show was canceled, but VH1 brought it back to at least play the rest of the season.  One of the highlights of my week.

Teddy Geiger: Yeah not really my style of music at all.  He is the character central to a subplot in Love Monkey.  For you I will (confidence) is a really kick ass song for being so anti kick ass.

The New Job: Yeah still kicking ass.  Started server training today.  They pretty much showed me how to ring and order then my trainer just let me take tables in rotation.  Really beats following around some 18 year old girl who had been waiting tables for three months (had to do that before).  Won tickets to the Royals game friday that the manager was giving out from a big block for a bunch of people at work.  Should be fun.  Assuming I pass my tests I start on the floor Friday.

King of Cars:  I’m getting hooked.  I want to go sell cars.  I think I would be a kickass car salesman.  Hell I sold a freaking half million dollars in hotel rooms in one day.  Don’t think I will be intimidated by the product.  The hours suck though.  I guess I will stick to glasses of wine.

Talk Radio:  I have been listening to constant talk radio.  It is good to engage your mind throughout the day.  I miss O&A.

Opie and Anthony:  I have been listening to these guys since I lived in CA.  Then the got cancelled for pulling off a stunt where a couple had sex in a catholic church on a high holy day.  Doh.  I got Sirius when I thought they were going there.  I got it yanked out and XM installed when they went there.  I got it disconnected when I was losing my license.  Soon I will have it back though and in the mean time I got www.oavirus.com Thousands of hours of O&A broken up by bit.

My Cousins: I got to hang out with my cousins this weekend.  They are so cool.  I really wouldn’t mind having some kids of my own.  I just kinda think it would be good to find the mother first.  I know alot of people who did it the other way around and it didn’t work out well.  So far my search hasn’t been particuarly successful, but that doesn’t lead to a change in strategy.

This is definately a limited list, but I am certainly grateful for these and many other things.
