Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

You know, it occurs to me that my total inability to play spot the quotation and the rarity of my actually being quoted here are probably not totally coincidental.

Weekend so far:

Finish work. Get Drunk with Haligonistas Get home from dinner drunk way too early in the evening.

Sat: Farmers Market Back at work to finish the filing I didn't get done yesterday (Seriously, I am the worst records manager ever.)

I dreamt last night that I was in new york and I had a short bob. This morning I realized that the last time I was in NY was two years ago this weekend. Then I ran into my hairstylist at the farmer's market and I was like, "I'll be by later to make an appt!"

not your mom's socks.

Ginger - I'm making cupcakes today ("chocolate! with PINK stuffon top!" You sure? "YEEEEES."). I am secretly pretending to make your awesome monster cupcakes instead. These should be pretty cool, but I. loved. the. monsters.

This, after a Target run. And the fruitless pursuit of dust bunnies.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Fuck. I screwed something up and have to go in to the office. No big deal, I just don't wanna.

How to get your ass kicked circa 1977.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It's a weekend miracle -- I actually have laundry in already!

Also, there was a little bit of drama in the deli when this guy came in with a teenager saying he needed Benadryl ASAP because the kid was having an allergic reaction. I'm going to believe that the deli lady didn't understand what the guy was saying because she kept talking to me. (She's an older Korean lady, and I'm guessing "allergic reaction" isn't in her day-to-day English vocabulary. Also, people often come in slightly agitated, because they "need" their coffee or beer or whatever. @@) I was like, get him the Benadryl! So they did, and I guess it was OK.

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

This morning I realized that the last time I was in NY was two years ago this weekend.

That was TWO YEARS ago?

Dang

This is why I shudder when anyone talks about '70s-inspired fashion. I remember the '70s and they were Not Pretty.

You can't have pink monsters, Sox?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

G's cousin and his wife are coming over to see the house and the kittens this evening, so we need to do a quick cleanup.

The rest of the weekend will be pretty quiet, with a few errands to be done. Like getting a new brake light for my car. Whee.
