Hey, is Gud around? I'm on my way back west starting tomorrow (with a stop by the waterpark) so could be through KC Friday evening or Saturday noonish. If it's convenient, I wouldn't mind saying hello to KC-istas.
Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Does anyone prefer to get their change back in a bill-hammock? You know when the person at the register piles the change onto the bills and holds the bill by the two short edges?
Drives me absolutely nuts. Drive thru people are notorious for it and I've lost count of the times I've ended up with my change scattered over my lap and the floor of the car or worse on the ground outside my car.
I also hate people who stand by the card slider/cart area and rearrange their pocketbook completely, tidying their hair and itemizing tax deductions after they are rung out, preventing me from moving my cart forward and filling it and/or sliding my card.
This drive me nuts. And I tend to get paranoid about taking too long myself so I try to get everything secure, then organize it once I'm out of the aisle.
People tend not to run into me with their carts, but I often encounter pairs of people who have their carts parked side by side, blocking the aisle while they're looking at the shelves. How hard is it to move your cart past the person already stopped, and then walk back to whatever it is you want to browse over?
This is why I was so disappointed when the local grocery store stopped being 24 hours. I loved going shopping at 2 am when the only thing I had to watch out for was stockers.

What is even happening?
Hate the hammock. Hate doing the Bump with the shopping cart behind me. Always have ATM card at the ready, and pre-swipe and punch, when I can.

Today was so very depressing. Bah. I want my officemate back already.
Guess I'll go make dinner.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I've never encountered the hammock. It sounds dreadful.
What I despise violently is when people loiter at the subway station stairs. You're on the STAIRS. You're in NEW YORK. What is WRONG with you?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Sorry, sara. Hey! You can help me. What should I get at the Sarajevo Fast Food place by my house? I don't know what any of it is.
And I realized why I give people coins on top of the bills, because I just did it multiple times -- it's because I have the money ready before they are ready, and that's how I'm holding it. I think the most successful transactions were when I kind of slid the coins off the bills into the other person's hand. I know this from a study I did.

I totally laughed out loud on the street just now when I walked by a phone booth ad. CRISS ANGEL MINDFREAK!!! He'll freak your mind.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
We captioned the pilot for this a couple of years ago and kept showing clips to each other in the office and asking in shocked tones if anyone could possibly take it seriously.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
I actually prefer getting the coins on top, because I can slide the coins into the right part of my wallet without dropping the bills, but getting bills into my wallet while cupping coins in my hand is difficult and leads to dropping stuff.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
