5/19/2017 Oh Jeez! Well I apparently haven't been on in 7 years. Not gonna lie, don't really remember anyone but I'll see if going through my posts can help with that.

Well I was in college. Did fine and all but honestly felt like it wasn't helping me progress in my life. I had a severe illness I ended up having emergency surgery for in Nov. 2010. Definitely a life adjustment but I'm alright now.

Haven't been Dinking around at all I'm afraid >_< The last couple years I got into board gaming and tabletop rpgs. I also babysit somewhat regularly for a longtime friend. Not currently doing the gaming but have other life adjustments going on.

Currently single and have chosen to be for quite some time...though I have someone I sometimes go out to dinner with and other social things.

I like Asian food including sushi (yum!). I like going to Applebee's for their wanton tacos.

I got into watching daytime court shows and love to see self centered people get put in their place. Also learning a lot about the law. I also like HGTV.

I like to 'window shop' online a lot. Plan on getting a new metal bed frame soon (actual nice frame, not the cheap thing the foundation sits on). I like metal and modern looking things.

I listen to a lot of Pandora Radio. Been into Adult Contemporary (like Andy Grammer). But I also mix it up with pop/jpop , alt, 80's and dance/club stuff.

I write poetry though I haven't been very inspired in a while, and the last few I don't feel were very good. The one I'm working on now has taken me several days, which is very unusual for me. I typically write in one sitting because I want the words to just flow naturally. If I have to think too hard I feel it's not as authentic. However that's what's happening now and I'm going with it because I want to get into writing again.

When I'm distracted or rushed I tend to make more typos. This happens often when I'm babysitting.

When I'm tired I do strange things...like write a huge biography on a site I haven't been on in years and may continue to not regularly visit.

Well if you couple the value of your currency to gold you know that the currency will keep it's value because you can't magically create more gold. Unless you happen to own the philosopher's stone. So a government can't issue more money than they have in gold which makes the currency reliable.

Yeah we can't creat more gold..which is why I heard we're in debt. From funding wars and such. Because we have spent more money then we actually have in gold.

Striker- I did not know that about the Gold Standard. I don't even remember learning about it in school. I'll have to look it up more. Like I said, I don't know much about economics.

Edit-I found an Article on the Gold Standard and what's used today. That's exactly what I was talking about when I said we should just use our dollars as face value. I had no idea gold wasn't involved at all anymore.

Thank you for bringing me into this century, Striker
