and now it's june????

happy hour on friday with L and coworkers...lots of laughs and really nice people...can't imagine doing the work they do and they all have such interesting backgrounds...good to meet new people...patio beers and real conversation

hiked for about an hour on saturday with friends and had friends and sister-in-law over for breakfast afterwards...made an egg dish and these sticky buns (minus the whiskey) and thought they were pretty rich and flavorful...you can find frozen dough at walmart or other stores...next time will have to try making the dough as well

read a bunch of articles my mom gave me...things to aspire to and to think about:

• six signs you're in a healthy relationship -- loyalty, respect, unconditionally there, trustworthy, a genuine sounding board, dependability
• six personality traits worth adopting -- selflessness, tolerance, genuineness, sensitivity, integrity, humility
• steve jobs commencement address in 2005 -- "...you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. you have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. this approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life."
  
• "you've got to find what you love." "your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. and the only way to do great work is to love what you do. if you haven't found it yet, keep looking. don't settle. as with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. and, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. so keep looking until you find it. don't settle."
• "your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. and most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. they somehow already know what you truly want to become. everything else is secondary."
• "stay hungry. stay foolish." (from the whole earth catalog and used in jobs' speech)
• miguel de cervantes saavedra -- "honesty is the best policy."
• jonathan swift -- "may you live all the days of your life."

happy june to you!
