Eight Random Facts
1. I have excellent balance when I am paying attention, but sometimes, in a dramatic fashion, I will just catch myself from falling by swinging my arms or stepping awkwardly.
2. At one point, I was a decent palm-reader. With a brief brush up, I could probably pick it up again if I wanted too, I always thought it would be a great way to meet new people, but I never used it to any extent and I didn't practice regularly.
3. I have a guilty pleasure; viral videos like this: http://www.collegehumor.com/video:1761839/ (can someone please tell me how to post a link, please?). Not toddlers in particular, just people getting hurt. This just happens to be a good example.
4. When the apparently homeless ask me for money, I am always torn between compassion and the "don't encourage people to make money by begging" philosophy. I rationalize this ambivalence by giving money to some people, primarily the one's that seem genuine to me, not those who choose to set up shop with a sign and a coffee can. Plus, if Karma happens to be one of those powerful universal forces, then maybe my investment of roughly $5 a month will come back around in better ways than other indulgences that can cost up to $50 a month.
5. I once competed in a Halo 2 tournament... and was eliminated in the first round.
6. I am currently in the process of moving into my Dad's old room, and becoming "master of the household," a title I am not quite relishing.
7. Pecans are my favorite nuts, but pistachios come in at a close second.
8. I only ever swear at other drivers when there are other people in the car, as a joke.

Summer classes suck. It is only the first week of what will be 10 weeks of my summer eaten up by classes all the way down in Irvine, and I am already bitching. On the bright side, 2 of my 3 professors are young and energetic, so physically being in class is actually enjoyable. Though, I really do have to be here and I will have my degree as soon as I pass these classes. I have already started preparing to be a college graduate; I started growing out my beard, I am pretty sure there is a law somewhere, requiring psychologists to have beards.
Lisa and I decided that we want to get a dog, I want a Pembroke Welsh Corgi, and she wants a Papillon. We have been arguing about it for days. Ray suggested that we compramise on a third dog, like a Beagle. If we ended up getting a Beagle, I would want to train it to follow a scent, but I don't know how easy that is. I have a list of breeders I want to meet with, but have not gotten around to contacting them yet. I also haven't gotten around to selling my 250 Kawasaki Ninja, Silver, $3000 - yet. Seriously, if you know anyone who wants a good beginners motorcycle, let me know, and I would not mind giving a good friend price.
I know I am supposed to tage 8 people, but everyone I know on this has already been tagged. I hope I don't have 7 years of bad luck or something...

Just peg people off-site if you don't have 8 on this blog.
And if you wanna add links, here's the basic HTML:
[a href="||insert link between quotes||"]||text you want for the link||[/a]
Just be sure to use angle braces instead of square ones. Blogspot'd parse out the angles, so I had to use squares. But, if you do it right, you can do this.
