1.  I don’t know why I called this a Punchlist.  I was just thinking about someone I wanted to punch so maybe that did it.  Is there anyone you’d truly enjoy punching?

I might enjoy punching John Goodman.

2.  It’s getting cold here in Chicago and going to really dip down on Sunday.  DO NOT WANT.

3.  The Ballerina has a reputation of saying things no one else would say.  Like, “How much money do you make?”  I once sent a dinner invitation e-mail that said, “Come any time after 6:30.”  She responded with, “I’ll be there around 6.”  A few weeks ago, I suggested we have another dinner at my house.  She said, “I’m only going to come if it has a fall theme.”  We’re getting together on Sunday and belatedly celebrating her birthday.  I said that I’d have cake.  She said, “I don’t like chocolate cake.”

It occurs to me that The Ballerina could end most of her sentences with, “…just an FYI.”  Sort of like how you can make anything sound dirty if you end it with, “…if you know what I mean.”
