Since I never really introduced myself, I thought I would give you some interesting factoid about Megan Beth.

1. I wanted to be a singer when I was younger, and knew all the words to the songs on the radio in the 80’s. These days the only gigs I can get are in the MB Shower, and the Honda Accord. Although both great venues..it’s a tough crowd.

2. I’m a germ-a-phob. I never open doors with my hands, at least I try not to, and in college would always use my sleeve to open germie college doors. I even wipe down the door handles in my apartment. Clorox Wipes are the best!

3. I have a love affair with Pottery Barn, and could probably describe their inventory better then a Pottery Barn employee.

4. Brian, my sister’s husband and I, used to watch Pirates of the Caribbean 2-3 times a week. We know almost the whole movie line by line and quote it often. My favorite line is “You need to find yourself a girl mate, or maybe you have but are otherwise incapable of wooing said strumpet. You aren’t a eunuch are you?!”

5. Right before I fall asleep, I get food cravings. I stumble out of bed and get something to eat and bring it back to my bed and eat it either with just the hall light on or the light from my cell phone. Usually this mid-night meal consists of either a big bowl of chocolate ice cream, or dry cereal.

6. I am a creature of habit and have worn the same silver color nail polish on my toes for the last seven years.

7. I have a weird obsession with black Sharpies. Don’t know why…but I love them.

8. I’m a hard-core thrill seeker, and nothing has really scared me yet. Plus I will usually volunteer to go first. It has been rumored that I climbed one of the radio towers in Annapolis. I cannot confirm or deny this.

9. I love love love light blue chapsticks. Nothing fancy, just plain SPF chapstick. I have about 15-20 and always have a couple on me at all times.

10. I took a semester of Arabic. And yes it’s as hard as they say it is.
SabaH-iL-Kheer: Good Morning. This is my name in Arabic: ?????.

Since it’s taken me longer then I thought to post Amanda and Brian’s wedding pics, I thought I owe you something, anything. So here is a tiny sneak peak. The rest will be posted this weekend. Be excited. Be very excited.

I am on a strict burger, pizza, and chicken diet. Although some naysayers like my mom and sister just call it picky.

Before I moved into this apartment I lived at home, and fulfilled my burger diet requirement quite often.
But since moving to this “anti allowed to have grills, anywhere, even in the yard outside the apartment building” building,
the essential part of my diet has declined to almost extinction.

When I saw a sign go up about a block away I was gitty with excitement. “The Burger Joint“, clearly right up my alley. Mom and I tried it today and it definitely made the cut. It’s a small walk up counter place with tables and chairs that serves…well…burgers, fries and shakes. Kind of a modern day Johnny Rockets. You must check out their fries, they are the biggest fries I’ve ever seen, they have to be on steriods.

(Please disregard the quality from the P&S)

I must say that it took ridiculously long to make two burgers(twenty minutes), and the first burger I had was raw, but they made me a new one just as soon as I turned around. Although they still have a few kinks to iron out, all in all it was great. I’m sure I will be a frequent shopper. And the best part is, that on the weekends they are open until 2am!
YES! Now I know where I’m going to eat after work.

My voice that is.

This past Sunday I spent Mother’s Day on my mother’s couch with a 101 degree fever.
I was in jeans, sweat shirt, down blanket, another blanket and my goose bumps had goose bumps.
Slowly but surely I was getting more congested and had a fever for a few nights.

Then came Wednesday on my way to work, I told my mom, ‘yea doesn’t my voice sound a little funny’,
and she assured me I sounded normal but I knew something was up.

Low and behold by the end of work on Wednesday I had just a squeak left. Yesterday…totally gone. YIKES.
It kills me because as some may know, I am a person with usually plenty to say.

Tonight at work should be interesting. Not quite sure exactly how I’m going to talk to people and do
normal server talking duties, but I guess we shall see. Where’s a chalk board when I need one.
