Simple Truth's Episode IV: Simple Truth's Strike Back

Believe it or not, someone actually asked me if I'd do another of these...so here it is. More Simple Truth's...

• You're still not listening; hence why you haven't been told the story yet.

• My dad? Still beating up your dad!

• Vanilla Sky is still the greatest film ever made. Truth.

• You can't logically argue that last point until you've actually seen the film.

• My "little brother", Travis, got married a few weeks ago. Despite my personal life, I couldn't be more happy for him. Truth.

• I found out at his reception that I'm a dancing magnet for cougars. Who knew?

• No, I didn't go home with one. Absolute truth.

• I've recently discovered that I'm scary-good at guessing middle names.

• She might agree with the "scary" part.

• I agree with the "good". Truth.

• I finally conquered my fear of the dentist.

• I was told I have a beautiful smile. Truth?

• I'm nervous about the restaurant I've chosen for Saturday, because I've never been there.

• It comes recommended by my best friend, who I'd literally take a bullet for, so I trust him.

• Looking forward to trying it out. Truth.

• I really don't like my job.

• I was given a regional award for this job this month, so apparently I'm doing okay at it.

• Might move to Airway Heights or Spokane when the house sells anyway.

• Options are open. Truth.

• I get, on average, about 4 hours of sleep at night.

• My dad gets more than that because he does sometimes take a break from beating up your dad.

• My dad will never read this.

• He's awesome anyway. Truth.

• Alex Smith of the 49ers had almost a perfect game Monday, throwing the football.

• They're my pick for the Super Bowl this year.

• I'm still scared of water.

• But I'm willing to jump in anyway, if I'm asked...

• Smoky Mountain Christmas is one of my favorite Christmas movies.

• My mom & I have a traditional "wrapping party", held every year around December 23rd, and have been doing this since I was 4 or 5.

• Already making plans for this year.

• I've never had a birthday party. Not once.

• I don't see things changing this year.

• That's okay, I'll be working anyway. Truth.

• If I ever did, I'd like my local Facebook friends to be there.

• Probably wouldn't come anyway. Definite truth.

• Jay Pitt, my old boss who lives in Coeur d'Alene, is still the fuckin' man!.

• Divorces do nothing for your self-confidence.

• I almost stayed home from work today because of my dog; her eyes get me every time!

• I went to work anyway.

• Kinda feel bad about it.

• The eyes are the first thing I notice about a woman.

• Oh, stop! Read blog #1...this isn't about you, we're talking about me here.

• I have an interesting story to tell; the only one of its kind on this planet! But you have to listen! I'm begging you to listen!

• I still miss my high school hairline.

• I've never had a real hangover. Truth.

• And yes! I *have* drank enough, thank you verry much!

• David Copperfield, the illusionist, is mesmerizing to watch.

• He was even better in person. Truth.

• I'd love to take a vacation to Vegas sometime.

• Right after my vacation to San Francisco to see a 49ers game.

• I want to go skydiving.

• I have an immense fear of failure.

• And a fear of not living up to my dad.

• I haven't so far.

• But I'm still working on it. Truth.

• I'm more comfortable in a suit & tie than I am jeans & a t-shirt.

• I'm just drawn that way (somebody never watched "Cool World"!)

• Life is amazingly like a movie; if the script calls for it, people are always right in the location you assume them to be.

• I don't know who I'd pick to play me in a film about my life. A young Christian Slater, maybe?

• If Tom Cruise was in it, I wouldn't care who played me.

• Go On, starring 'Chandler' from "Friends", is the best show on tv.

• Probably because I can relate to it. Truth.

• I still have that amazing story to tell, and it's only getting better every day...

• ...If you listen, I'll tell it to you. But you really have to listen.
