Excellence.
A friend posted this as his Facebook status this morning and it was definitely something I needed today.
Don’t base your excellence on other people’s poor performance. If you’re gonna compare yourself to someone, don’t let it be someone mediocre.

VENUE - The Warfield / San Francisco
After more than a month since my last concert I was definitely itching to get back to some live music and Mat Kearney did not disappoint. I’d never seen him live and was definitely excited.
The Warfield is one of my favorite…

Yeah...this just happened...
<toss, turn, toss, turn, open eyes, look at clock>
2:00am? Really?
I’ll just turn over and go back to sleep.
<close eyes really tight, imagine sleep returning, fail>
Maybe I’ll just get up and see if anyone emailed me or posted something cool on Tumblr.
<crawl out of bed, walk six steps from bed to desk to find no email and no new posts, begin searching all other...

Words about Free Pie
Me: I'd like to order some pie.
Waiter: Oh, okay. Apple Pie Shake? Pie a la mode?
Me: Just apple pie. But not heated. As cold as you can make it. And I'd like it to go.
Friend:
Waiter: Got it.
Waiter: The only two pies we have are heated. But I can give you a free slice.
Me: Well, I can put that in the fridge so that's fine.
Waiter: I'm just gonna leave the bill as is.
Me: Awesome, thanks!
Waiter:
Me: Free pie!

Just a few thoughts on The 2012 Grammy's...
Finally watched my recording of The Grammy’s tonight and I didn’t have enough energy to make notes about all the winners and performances but let me just say the following:
Alicia Keys and Bonnie Raitt singing Etta James? WIN. And was it just me or was Etta not in the memorial thing? Did I miss it?
I was actually underimpressed with the whole memorial thing. It seemed way too upbeat...

In my dreams, there are flight attendants, Matt...
I can’t believe it’s been two months since I posted on this blog…it’s not that life hasn’t been crazy…just more serious crazy than normal crazy. Does that even make sense? I don’t care.
Well…when I awoke this morning I could only shake my head at the series of dreams that wandered through my not-very-deep sleep last night. I seriously...

Birthday Eve →
It’s Birthday Eve and therefore time to blog. Yes, I just made that rule up. I can do whatever I want because it’s my Birthday Eve. When it’s your Birthday Eve you can do whatever you want. I suppose you can do whatever you want on any sort of Eve but I’ve now gotten carried away with this whole thing and just need to move on.
So let’s move on, shall we?

Words about AT&T
Me (upstairs in bed with pneumonia): **hears doorbell ring; wishes it wouldn't ring again; hears it ring again**
Me: **crawls out of bed, walks downstairs and opens door while coughing**
Me: **sees man in AT&T polo shirt; glares through safety door and wishes pain on all of AT&T**
Me: Can I help you?
AT&T Pawn: Yeah, we're just checking to see if your service is okay, Sara Somebody.
Me: I think you have the wrong house.
Him: Oh, that must have been the prior account. Do you have AT&T?
Me: No. **thinking he should know this if he's a real AT&T rep; suspicious**
Him: Comcast?
Me: Uh huh.
Him: Well, we've been talking to your neighbors and many of them are upset about the rising cost...
Me: Ya know, I'm home with pneumonia and really can't stand here chatting about this. **coughs**
Him: Oh, well, uh...
Me: **closes door**

NEW YORK STATE OF MIND by BILLY JOEL
The end...or the beginning...I don't know...
So, yesterday was a double doctor sort of day. I finally got to my post-op appointment with my ob/gyn - after being put off last Friday and now have a plan of action for moving forward. It’s called taking hormones to counteract the extra estrogen my body is apparently producing, which caused numerous polyps to form. Those got removed during the surgery a few weeks back and were all benign....

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD by PINK
Of course...
On the day I was supposed to have my follow-up post-op appointment and find out what was really going on and what happens next the doctor had to perform an emergency c-section.
The thing that frustrates me about all of this is that they could have easily called me and let me know I needed to reschedule but instead, the following occurred.
10:15 - left my house (appointment scheduled at 10:50)
