I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Things I do not like about today (so far):

1) rain
2) sauna-like Subway
3) guy pushing me out of way on subway and woman hugging pole on subway (thus causing my hand to touch her stomach)
4) ita's head hurting
5) EXtremely slow self-serve copty machines at Kinkos
6) Kinkos telling me it will take 2.5 hours to make 300 copies when there are no other customers in there and none of the machines are whirring or purring or cranking out things.
7) re-creating work schedules for seriously FUBARd client
8) new jobs that need to be done ASAP

Things I do like about today (so far):

1) getting work done with Israel before I left home
2) Yelling at man and woman on subway
3) BK for lunch
4) being bossy while my boss is gone
5) green clothes
6) pretty new pearl earrings

Again my goal is to get these lists at least even.

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

Tell me about yelling at the woman on the subway, msbelle. I got so pissed the other day at this tourist slounging all over the goddamn pole nearest me.

Putting up signs in Japanese, attaching ONE tacky, glittery chrysanthemum made of foil to a street lamp, and a big banner that says "KYOTO!" instantly transforms any downtown street into Japan.

Dude. When you go for lunch and start saying "Itadakimasu!" before you eat, I will believe in the magic.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't often yell at people on the subway, but I fucking love shoving people out of my way. LOVE. And I hate those goddamned pole leaners.

Aimee, what movie? I'd assume it was something like Alias becuase they use downtown a lot and lots of faux foreign locales.

I made a cardinal mistake at yoga today. Oops. Actually two.

Along with hand-out cards for cell phone users, [PDF], I want cards for other things, like pole-huggers and mallwalkers.

Not a result, but the visit was ideally supposed to remove the need for the Vicodin.

Well, crap. As for Wiseguy, I have decided that Vinnie Terranova has the Big Block of Concrete chemistry factor to the whoa power. At this point, anybody could pounce on Vinnie, and I'd just tilt my head and say, "Yeah, okay, that works."

Fuck cards -- I want a taser for many of those people.

Possibly I'm a little stabby myself today. Hmm.

Especially with all the hohn hohn hohn...

add Jesse saying this to my like list.

Tell me about yelling at the woman on the subway, msbelle.

Well, Bon, it was like this. The car emptied out a bit and I was finally get to hold onto the middle bar (having just surfed for the last 4 stops) and Huggy Helen thinks she might just claim the whole pole, so she leans in just as I grab on and the back of my fist is all on her stomach and I flex it out and into her while saying kinda loudy "Could you NOT lean on the pole please?!" Of course she looks at me like I just kicked her puppy and I look at her all morally superior and sneer.
