1. 25 out of 30 people who read my blog WOULD like some tea, thanks.
2. China does a WAYYY better job with the fireworks than anyone else as far as the HSBC Celebration of Light goes.
3. Watching things from your balcony? Good.
4. It’s more important to me to grow and move on than to get my jabs in.
5. I am an overcommunicator. Not in the I AM TELLING YOU TOO MUCH sense, but in the SHHHHH Meg I am trying to THINK sense DON’T tell me any more about your need to HOLD A PENGUIN.
6. Sometimes you just need to put on the crapass dance music to get through the day.
7. There is no such thing as “enough coffee”, but rather “am I alive?”
8. I can’t always clear my heart out by writing.
9. The ability to sleep is not only enviable, but essential. I think I need to get more rest just to avoid wrinkling up like a wildebeest.
10. It is possible to get bored of sushi.

Sorry, kids, but it kinda is… but only the rolls. Not sashimi or happy little pieces of fish and rice. But hello? You can’t get sick of rolls?

Oh no! I thought that Spain was the best :) Possibly the most amazing finale that I’ve ever seen. We’ll agree to disagree :)

Re: 9.
This may be a completely useless suggestion, but if I ever have a problem sleeping, it is usually followed by a burning desire to get immense amounts of exercise.
Strangely enough, it never fails to cure the sleep problem.
So, to that end, I reccommend you go hike the Grouse Grind. Twice. Back-to-back. Both ways. At 6pm.
By the time you get home, you will sleep like a baby.
Or be dead. Either way you’ll get some sleep, no?

I started doing morning road rides on my bike to kick-start the day. I’m sleeping WAY better at night now…
