4) (500) Days of Summer. This movie edged its way into my favorites. It's in the Breakfast at Tiffany's kind of love category. It was beautiful to watch as well as a new slant on the romantic indie comedy. My favorite scene was during the shifting, blue lighted segment while Tom chalked a new building on the board behind his bed--and then the camera zeroed in on his hand, holding the chalk, like any number of wonders could come from it.

3) Tripe. As I have said, it wasn't great. It was chewy, as you expect cow's stomach to be. But the dark ages of curiosity that I have lived in since the time of Rocket Power and Twister's mayhem have finally come to an end and the Renaissance of food-tasting may begin.

2) Tutankhamun, and my gold earrings. The most impressive collection of Egyptian artifacts that I have ever seen, personally. The dagger and sheath that were buried with the boy king impressed me the most; it was so intricate and bejeweled. It seemed like someone's life's work. And on the way out, I got this tiny pair of 1/8" golden ankh earrings, which I plan to keep safe for a long time to come. I adore them. It prompted me to change my religion on facebook to "Egyptian polytheism. Until Akhenaten tells me what to do."

1)Being with my Dad. I miss him so much now that he's in Louisiana. I knew that the day would come that I couldn't be with him every waking moment anymore, but I wish I had been given more prep time. I love him so much. But I am able to treasure the time I have with him now. It's not necessarily true, the "you don't know what you have till it's gone," because I always knew what I had. It was just tough to have to give it up.
