We have an intern starting today and she came into the meeting to go over the new hire paperwork with i-pod on and one of the plugs in her ear. She took it out for the meeting but had it on before and immediately after the meeting. Apparently she 'lives' for this piece of machinery and 'can't work without it'. She is a musician and listening to music is essential to her very existence. Personally, I found her to be incredibly amusing but then again..... she sure is passionate about her i-pod. It made me laugh and think of my brother and how he is wildly passionate about everything. Maybe is one of those generational things?

I starting going to acupuncture with Mr. Miyagi (as I so affectionately refer to him) and he came across a very interesting piece of information about me that I never knew. One of my legs is shorter then the other. By almost 1/2 inch. How do you like that?

Another thing I learned about myself is that I am squeamish about blood. We let the dog off the lead for a nature walk and he ran around willy nilly into swamps, into the bay, into patches of woods and into anything he could find. It was really quite funny, he would run as fast as he could, stop, turn around and look for us and then continue on his way. When we called him back to us he had a cut on his foot and it bled and bled and bled. I thought I could handle it but Rob was the one who felt around his bloody paw to make sure there was no glass or wood or anything else in his pad. I was the one ready to pass out. We came out of the woods and Rob had a hand covered with blood. Looking back, I should have run screaming out of the woods with bloody Rob and the pit bull behind me. That would have been pretty funny.

I just got a best of Stevie Wonder CD and I'm listening to it at work today and have to really contain myself. I want to jump around, dance and sing along. Why have I never bought any of his music in the past, I was clearly missing out.

Man, my back has been killing me lately and I can't figure out why. I have been exercising and keeping my core muscles fit. Next week I have my first acupuncture appointment and I am really excited for it.
