Had to battle over an hour's worth of traffic to travel 12.6 miles from Century City to Burbank. 4. Forgot where I parked my car in the garage at work and spent five minutes running around the garage, trying to set off my car alarm so I could find her. 3. Was shot down by two more women. 2. Watch ceased to function. 1. Forgot cell phone at home (for the second time this week!

Successfully finished 1500 word column with half an hour to spare. 4. Got compliments from people on past columns I'd written. 3. New co-worker mistakenly thought I was 33 or 34 because of my so-called maturity. Man, he really doesn't know me that well at all. 2. Flirted with cute Hooters waitress (who was not one of the aforementioned two more women who shot me down -- while I reeeeeally wanted to, I didn't break the unwritten rule of Fight Club: You do not ask out the waitress, especially at Hooters). 1. Watched my beloved Patriots beat the ever-loving crap out of the Colts while drinking beer with some good friends and co-workers... and a cute Hooters waitress.
