Okay, my head is about to explode from sinus pressure, so along with every home-remedy, I've been stewing over hot cups of coffee. So, rather then dwell on the pain, here's what you get (remember, I'm hopped up on every sinus, allergy and pain medicine I've got, plus lots of coffee!)
1) My favorite coffee: Cafe Mocho from the coffee shop in Union Station, Kansas City, MO.
2) I've been given a coffee maker on two different Christmases (is there a plural for Christmas?)
3) I grind my own coffee beans.
4) I love the smell of French Roast Vanilla Coffee Beans.
5) I once got carded at WalMart for buying a large bottle of vanilla coffee syrup (had to explain it wasn't alcohol). Oh yeah, and I was like 30. :)
6) Fill it to the rim, with Brim!
7) I've never been to a Starbucks (GASP!)
8) I own a regular coffe maker, a one cup instant maker, a capachino/expresso machine and a small travel maker (I know, I have a problem).
9) Unless I'm somewhere special, I only drink coffee at night.
10) I can drink a entire pot of regular coffee right before bed and sleep like a baby (I cry a lot and wet the bed - JK!).
11) Good coffee means lots of sugar, some cream and vanilla syrup.
12) Okay, if you're still reading this... you're as bored as I was when I wrote it. Why not have a cup of coffee?

The Five Factor Personality Test
Okay, these things always weird me out, because after just a few choices, it has nailed me down pretty well. What do you think (if ya know me)?
| Your Five Factor Personality Profile |
 Extroversion: You have low extroversion. You are quiet and reserved in most social situations. A low key, laid back lifestyle is important to you. You tend to bond slowly, over time, with one or two people. Conscientiousness: You have medium conscientiousness. You're generally good at balancing work and play. When you need to buckle down, you can usually get tasks done. But you've been known to goof off when you know you can get away with it. Agreeableness: You have high agreeableness. You are easy to get along with, and you value harmony highly. Helpful and generous, you are willing to compromise with almost anyone. You give people the benefit of the doubt and don't mind giving someone a second chance. Neuroticism: You have low neuroticism. You are very emotionally stable and mentally together. Only the greatest setbacks upset you, and you bounce back quickly. Overall, you are typically calm and relaxed - making others feel secure. Openness to experience: Your openness to new experiences is medium. You are generally broad minded when it come to new things. But if something crosses a moral line, there's no way you'll approve of it. You are suspicious of anything too wacky, though you do still consider creativity a virtue. |

A Peak Inside My Twisted Mind
The other night, I tripped on something in the park and fell full out on the asphalt. Here is my thought process while tripping and falling in the parking lot.
Tripping: Something’s not right here.
Still tripping: Hey, I’ll just step faster and catch up with myself.
Falling: Apparently I’m not that fast anymore.
Mid-Fall: This is going to hurt.
Seconds after hitting the concrete: I was right. It hurt.
Laying on the ground: Hope no one saw me. Nope they didn’t. Good.
Still laying on the ground: No one saw me, but what if I can’t get up? I better get up.
Mid-Stand: Yep, still hurts.
Standing in the parking lot: I better not have torn these good jeans.
Checking out my knees: Nope, no holes. You know, I could be bleeding. That’ll stain!
My first steps: Yep, definitely hurts.
More steps: I don’t remember falling hurting like this.
Few more steps: What if I did some real damage? I’ll walk it off.
Walking to my truck: Who ever thought up this “walk it off” idea was an idiot!
Tripping: Something’s not right here.
Still tripping: Hey, I’ll just step faster and catch up with myself.
Falling: Apparently I’m not that fast anymore.

Clowns in Heaven
Today I attended the funeral of a sweet friend and fellow clown. BJ or Lollipop, as she was also know, was the perfect example of a Christian lady. I knew her very little, but she was such a wonderful person. Lollipop and I belonged to the same Clown Alley (club) and had worked together making balloons and entertaining kids.
It was one of those funerals where you were sad because she was gone, but happy because she was a lady of such faith, everyone knew she was truly "home." She longed for heaven, and at the young age of 78, she is twisting balloons and greeting the new comers at heaven's gate.
You will be missed, Lollipop, but we will see you again someday.
