Above all else, I’m really glad that I don’t attract drama. In fact, I actively avoid it. Life’s too short for retarded, useless drama. Myself, I’d rather laugh and have fun.

Don't call me hon.
I think, because it’s the most unusual local accent of the area, it gets typified into a Baltimore “thing”. I always called it a “Bawlmer” accent, because the only people in Baltimore who have it are the ones who call the city “Bawlmer”.
Just like not everyone in New York pronounces it “New Yahk”, and I’m sure not every Bostonion...

I miss college… I mean, I’m definitely okay with real life, but college was pretty much on par with the rhythm I like to have in life.

Crazy.
I enjoy breakfast meals because all the foods and condiments go together so well. Bacon, sausage, home fries, pancakes, eggs, syrup (not a fan of breakfast ketchup usage, myself … but still). It’s the most unifying of meals.
I’m eating breakfast for lunch if you can’t tell ;)
So, the past couple of evenings I’ve been enjoying what (I guess) are Gin Rickeys. I got some crazy-big rocks glasses from Wal-Mart (16 glasses — 8 rocks, 8 highball — for $7) and so I wanted to use them.
Juice of 1/2 Lime
