The previous post got me thinking about what I refer to as “The House Rules”. I've been adding to them off and on, and I never got around to writing them down. I'll probably be adding to them later on, but here are the first ones:

1. Never say “I love you” without really meaning it.
2. Never be afraid to ask a question.
3. Act as though you belong where you are and know what you're doing, and people usually don't question those facts.
4. Never deny yourself pleasure, it's not as though people are rushing up to you to make sureyou're happy.
5. Say what needs to be said. Keeping things unsaid will make all involved miserable in the end.
6. Deal with the fucking consequences. If you screwed up, don't pass the blame around. Don't do anything you're not ready to face the music for.

I'm planning a trip to SF with Michel. Partly, I need a vacation.

Partly, it's in my top 3 places to visit. Partly to run away from the holidays :) We want to do the whole tourist thing: Napa valley, Alcatraz, Fisherman's wharf, Lombard Street, Muir Woods, Chinatown, and maybe jaunt over to Silicon Valley. My travel agent recommended the opera house, and something called Beach Blanket Babylon. He seems like a knowledgeable person, who used the word “cool” way too often for a man of his age, but seemed a decent sort. He should get back to me with all the info. Can't wait :)

Now, I just need to find plans for New Years eve. Hopefully involving lots of booze and beautiful people of the female persuasion :)

Hee hee. Thanks to strychnyn, I finally got off me lazy ass and created an account. My life is now complete. I mean, this is the epitome of ego-inflation, thinking that people might actually care about what I write, but hey, it keeps me amused :)

And it only took me 3 trials to get her friggin username entered without a typo. Doh!
