B-U-D-D-Y

I often read or hear people talk about how good friends are hard to come by. That makes me sad. Maybe I'm lucky or just really easy to get along with, but I can say with confidence that I have a lot of people in my life that I call good friends. I am truly blessed and can proudly say that it's awesome to be me. I love a lot of people and lots of people love me. I think love and friendship are crucial to good health, happiness and well being.

Don't fight it. Just let it happen :)

On Thank You Notes

When did it become uncool to write thank you notes? Thankfully, at a young age, my sister and I were taught the valuable lesson of showing appreciation when people would go out of their way for you. Maybe you got $20 from Grandma Sylvia for Christmas. Perhaps your neighbor, Sam, picked up your newspaper everyday while you were away on a 5 day cruise to Mazatlan. Who knows, maybe your buddy's ex-girlfriend gave you a handjob while you drove her home one night because you didn't pass out naked in your frat's living room and he did. Whatever the case may be, I think it's important that classiness becomes the norm once again in society.

Do me a favor...next time someone does something nice for you, show your appreciation. Write a thank you note. Don't be an asshole!
