Forwarded to me from a friend:

15 things to do at Wal-Mart while your spouse/partner/parent is taking their own sweet time:

1. Get 24 boxes of condoms and randomly place them in peoples carts while they are not looking.

2. Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute intervals.

3. Make a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the restrooms.

4. Walk up to an employee and tell him/her in an offical tone, "Code3" and watch what happens.

5. Go to the Service Desk and ask to put a bag of M&M's on lay away.

6. Move a "CAUTION - WET FLOOR" sign to a carpeted area.

7. Set up a tent in the camping department and tell other shoppers you'll invite them in if they bring pillows from the bedding department.

8. When a clerk asks if they can help you, begin to cry and ask "Why cant you people just leave me alone?"

9. Look right into the security camera, using it as a mirror and pick your nose.

10. While handling guns in the hunting department, ask the clerk if he knows where the anti depressants are.

11. Dart around the store suspicioulsy while loudly humming the theme from missions impossible."

12. In the auto department, practice your "Madonna" look using different size funnels.

13. Hide in a clothing rack and when people browse through, say "Pick me! Pick me!"

14. When an announcement comes over the loud speaker, assume the fetal postion and scream, "No, NO! Its those voices again."

15. Go into a fitting room, shut the door and wait a few minutes, then yell loudly, "There's no toilet paper in here!"

Since I spend about 75% of my work time either in or thinking about New Orleans but live in Austin, I am often asked to compare the two places. I spent the last five years of my life as a highly visible, highly vocal booster of New Orleans, so many people I meet are surprised when they hear that we have settled, at least for the near term, in Austin. For Cassie and me, the decision to stay in Austin was pretty easy. We didn't have any assets to protect in New Orleans. Our house was pretty thoroughly destroyed so there was no hurry to come back. We also wanted to find some degree of stability for our son; New Orleans is a dynamic place right now and since he had already spent about a fourth of his life in evacuation/gypsy mode, we decided we would try to give him a rest. So we arbitrarily chose Austin off the map. It was a reasonably short drive away from New Orleans. It was the only really progressive city in Texas.

Know Yourself

Here are some things that I know about myself. I learned them through some type of quantification, either formal or informal. My average weight over the past three years has been 151 pounds I can subsist on 24oz per day of water, assuming moderate physical activity and 80-85 degrees temperature I can survive for 3-4 days with no food with minimal impact to my energy or mood. I typically sleep 7.5 hours per night. I almost always wake up at 5:30 AM.  My mental state suffers at less than 6 hours of sleep. The result is typically slower reaction time, mild depression and irritability When I travel, I sleep less. I am also more depressed My stress behavior is typically to want to connect MORE, rather than less with others What do you know about yourself? How do you use this information to be more self-aware and manage yourself more effectively? Know your limits. Know what you can do with yourself. Test yourself before you're tested.
