Witness to a marriage proposal
Last night I witnessed my first marriage proposal. We were all out at Karaoke Cave by Union Square. It must have been around 12:30 by this time when I walked into our “VIP” private room and noticed that the lights were turned way up. I ask “hey, what’s going on with the lights?” As soon as I finished that sentence, I noticed Ryan (Michelle’s bf) on his knee...

Thanksgiving
Today is our annual American tradition where we give thanks. But for me, everyday I am always thankful for and to a number of things. This year, here’s my list of “thankful” things:
The many blessings in my crazy world
For being alive
Not putting myself into any major trouble/drama situations
Attempting to always making a positive difference in the world, other...

Pink's "I don't believe you"
New fave song, heard for first time today on the radio “It’s like one of those bad dreams, when you can’t wake up It’s like you’ve given up, you’ve had enough But I want more, no I won’t stop Because I just know, you’ll come around, right?” Posted via email from johnnymac’s posterous | Comment »
New York Cares
Today was my first time doing a project with New York Cares. From 9:30 - 11 this morning at PS 17 in Astoria, I played softball and kickball with kids and adults, and had an absolute blast.It was important for me to get back into the volunteering routine, haven’t done so since S-Team 3 years ago. Wow, can’t believe it’s been that long. To me, volunteering is important,...

Thailand
Robin and I are now looking at Phuket for next year’s field trip. Anyone have a lead on where we can get the cheapest flights, and intel on when’s the best time to travel?
Pirate Radio
Saw Pirate Radio and really enjoyed it. The acting was good, Philip Seymour Hoffman rocks yet again. The storyline had some good flow. The movie is about 2 hours long and it really didn’t seem like it. But the star of the movie has to be the soundtrack. Posted via email from johnnymac’s posterous | Comment »

The heart wants what the heart wants
It is what it isSpeaking of heart, I checked my pressure again tonight. Maybe I need to replace the batteries, but my pressure is now at 126/80, which is where it should be all this time. I guess the meds are working after all (knock on wood). Posted via email from johnnymac’s posterous | Comment »

Field trip 2010
I think it’s gonna happen. Robin and I started talking about doing a field trip to some other part of the world. Leading options: Buenos Aires, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Rio, Thailand, Greece. I really need to travel and use my passport. Last time I went was in Sept 07 to Witch’s Rock Surf Camp. Preferably, I’d like to go in June/July and where the weather is warm. But, most...
Family medical history
I want to give a great big shout out to both sides of my family. Because of our stellar medical history, I’ve been diagnosed with hypertension, my pressure is at 170/100. Doc said he would be fine if it went down to 135 or 140 over 80. So, now I’m on Benicar, and this sucks. The meds better work in the short term. I don’t want to be on this shit for the rest of my life. ...
Tattoo
I’ve thought of getting a tattoo for years. But now, I’m really closing in on what to get. It would be the term “feelings follow actions” but in Japanese lettering, as an homage to that self-esteem quote that I learned from my volunteering days at S-Team. Here’s the translation. A lot of letters. Where to put on my body? Posted via email from...
