I just realized, like right now, that I can often tell what kind of a day I'm having by how early I drink my Mountain Dew. Today I rolled into work a little late (I don't have a set time to come in, it's just that the later I come in, the later I get to go home to my loving little family), so almost from the get-go, I'm off to a bad start.
It's 10 a.m. and I'm already thinking hard about that Code Red in the mini-fridge.
I wish I could remember where I first came across this concept, so that I could give "propers," but I've heard it told that if you replace, "um," or "uh," or "well..." or any of those fillers in conversation that make one sound indecisive and unable to properly deliver a message with "now," you suddenly seem like a go-getter. Someone who is doing something with their life. Someone who can put together a sentence.
Now.

You crack me up Matt...If you'll notice, I'm always saying "uh" because I forgot the thing I was going to say when I opened my mouth. I'm not sure how much replacing the word with "now" will help that. Perhaps people will be waiting more anxiously for something profound to come out...
How dissappointing that will be.
