I just had my way to lunch blocked by Dick Cheney coming out of American Girl place in Chicago.
Oh god, the face of evil is here?
I'm very sorry if she tipped off anyone about your cunningly concealed herd of cows.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Woohoo. I made myself get on the treadmill.
Now I am tired and sweaty. Why did I make myself get on the treadmill?

Ha! There were blueberry bagels in our conference room the other day. I have to really watch myself to not say that out loud every time that happens.
Yep, I feel the same way at our Friday floor breakfasts when someone's grab-bagged bagels and a chocolate chip bagel (ewwwwww!) gets in the mix. Inevitably, someone snags it like they've just scored bigtime.

Because I ate french fries for lunch.

He's on his way to the airport, I believe. He gave a speech at the Ritz across the street from my office this morning. Ew. I've been surrounded by his presence all morning.

Punishingly Intricate
Middle East Cafe, most likely (TT the Bear's or, RIP, Nightstage would be too small, and I'm not sure if, RIP, Man Ray ever had bands on any regular basis).
I don't think Middle East was around when I was in school. Or maybe only at the very end. It wasn't TT's and I don't remember the other places. I want to say it was on the water...but now I'm wondering if I'm confusing it with a place in SF! Dag! I'm forgetting my past!

Now tagless for your comfort.
I've been told by New Yorkers that blueberries are NOT for bagels.
I'm a bagel heretic, apparently, because that's my favorite kind.
I hope Darth Cheney doesn't swing this way on his evil bat-wings on his way out of the Midwest.

Wait, I feel like there's a flaw in that argument...
Oh, right. I DIDN'T GET FRENCH FRIES. Though I did have a Reese's peanut butter egg for breakfast.

There was a place on the water in Boston called The Channel, but that wasn't anywhere near the Necco factory.

Coding and Sleeping
So that's where Dick Cheney is. With all the Iraq news, I keep expecting them to roll out Cheney to tell us, frankly, that things are going well in Iraq, we've turned the corner, and that the opposition is in its last throes.
