I ate my favorite fast food sandwich at the mall food court with my cousins ike and izzy. The sandwich is the Arby's chicken salad... I got a wrap this time, it was ok.
I finished reading Malcolm Gladwell's The Tipping Point Last week and now i am reading Dale Carnegie's How To Win Friends and Influence People for the 4th time in 5 years. It is a book to live by, but I need to keep refreshing myself of the points the book makes. It is easy in the world we live in to be mean to people, to lack a loving heart and to go out of your way to be genuinely interested in someone. I used to be better at it and I really believe I have gotten much of the opportunities in my life based on the principals in this book. Every new adventure and new situation I get into requires the finesse that is taught in the book.
(note to future self: Read this book once a year... or listen to the audio book.)
I have lost 12 pounds in the past 5 weeks! I am doing research for a new documentary idea that I have on how to lose weight. So far it is working, but I have sort of hit a plateau due to -20 weather here in MN the past week. I should have been out playing hockey, but instead I was sitting inside watching Woody Allen films. I watched 6 in the past 10 days.
At work today I was in the middle of shooting and the director of our office busted into the studio with the rest of the staff and said, "cut! we are watching this inauguration!" I was pretty stoked because Obama is one of the most intriguing speakers I have heard. It is always an inspiration to watch him, I really hope he lives up to his promises because he made some good ones :)
It is Skyler Stone's Birthday Celebration tonight at the improv in LA! Someday I will live in the LA area and get to go to his shows at the Improv and take advantage of his comp tickets. Show him some love!
