The World According to Tiff Sniff

Meandering ponderings and wonderings on the state of things.

Was interviewed for NPR's "All Things Considered" yesterday. Here's a link to the audio report.

2. List out your top 5 favorite places to eat at your location. (Please note: These are in no particular order).

McCreary's Pub (Franklin, TN) - Okay, so technically this one isn't in Nashville, but it's close, and I lived in Franklin up until a year ago. Smoke-free, live music on the weekends. I think it's about time to head out there again.

Hog Heaven (the shack next to the Centennial Park McDonald's) - I'm planning on eating here for dinner tonight. Best BBQ in town. Be sure to try the white BBQ sauce.

Baja Burrito - Need I say more?

Pancake Pantry - Not just a tradition, they actually have fantastic, inexpensive food.

Rotier's - Best burgers in town. Hands down. Try a milkshake, too.

3. Tag 5 more people to join the fun: I pick Mel, Michelle, Adam, Phil, and Tami. (I would pick you, too, Jen, but you're on another continent. Next time!) Mostly because you're the only ones who still read this thing. But also because I love you guys. Have fun!

Quick thoughts

1. The end of LOST: not a bit surprised that there will be 6 total seasons. I've theorized for a while that there would be 6. So far, the seasons have covered days on the island that track Hurley's "lucky" numbers. The first season covered about 40 days. 42, I think. The second season covered 3 weeks after the raft set sail. 23 days. So far this season, we've seen Jack/Kate/Sawyer spend a week w/ the Others, and have seen Ben promise to attack the beach after another week. I think it's a safe bet that that is where this season will end. So probably 16 days total for this season. Yep, 3 more seasons to count out the numbers. I think they've known (or at least wanted) to have 6 seasons all along.

2. Just a personal horn-toot: I've dropped 29 pounds from my all-time high. I also just bought several new pieces of clothes in a size I've not worn since high school. I'm not proud that I was ever that big, but I'm glad to be a much healthier weight. Hopefully there is more weight loss still to come, too. (Not a lot more, but some more.)

3. Seriously, I can't quit listening to the new Travis album (see my previous post if you're lost. Hee hee, lost!). It's fantastic. And I'm not one to listen to a song or album on repeat, normally. Wow, this is really good.

4. Hmmm, okay, maybe that's it.

Go here now.

Spinner has both the new Wilco and new Travis albums streaming for free this week.

(ps - my birthday is soon, you know.)
