It’s hard to guess what happens when you’re in front of a crowd. I’m not nervous talking in front of groups, but sometimes I just start getting twitchy. I bet if a cop stopped me I’d have trouble catching my breath. And today at the gym I talked to the, “Hot Acupuncture Student,” and I had a hard time focusing or completing my sentences. It was like being in high school again. (She talked to me because I saw her at her school, the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine, and she was trying to remember who I was then.)

In any case, I’m just beginning to remember what I said. I hope it wasn’t too awkward.

In clarification to previous ramblings:

• I don’t know why, but I don’t like the Chicago Bears. (I could probably come up with reasons, and Jim McMahon is probably high on the list.)
• I do NOT play World of Warcraft. My computer games usually consist of installing beta software and cursing loudly when things don’t work right.
