Drifts and Goals

Drift:

I want to just study.  Data would be very interesting.   And the law.  And auto mechanics.

I want to have adventures.

I want to design cool clothes and cool stuff to wear.

I want to fight ... which is another way to have adventures.

Great Saturday

I had to write down this Saturday story:

Went to work out

Met Megan, a Florida girl, who is fantastic: Republican, really smart, beautiful.  Really considerate.
-- Talked to her about how she was a winner.

Met Vasalisa -- a politicians wife (or should be).  Beautiful.  Elegant.  Smart.  Perceptive.  Just one of a kind.  Russian.  Just great.

Went to a bar, Distilled.  Great food.  Met a great guy.  Nice.  Very smart.  Ph.D.  First time I met someone that made me feel like I wasn't winning enough.  Cool guy.  Had a great piece of salmon and a great dessert: smores.

Barhopped: nothing special.

Ended at Mad Hatter:  a married woman grabbed onto me.  It was nice.  She was good looking but not great.  Just a huge risk taker.  Told me that she loved to take huge risks and may end up doing something very bad one day.  :-/  But very good looking.  Traditionally.  Not like Vasalisa and not as interesting as Megan.

Went to 3rd Street Amsterdam Tavern: Girl told me she wanted to be a CIA agent. I asked her if she wanted to kill me.  She said if she killed me I'd die with a smile on my face.  Great! :D
