I would literally never get to work if I waited for there not to be someone taking a picture across the sidewalk. I would be more mystified about the people taking pictures of random buildings because they have the Wall Street address....except my pictures from London when I was in college are pretty much like that. "Hey! That sign is funny! Stop and take a picture! Everyone pose around the funny sign! Ha ha ha!!! YEAH LONDON!!!!" So.
So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

Dear Lord, just when I thought this place was cleared out so I could get some printing done in peace without interruptions or conflicts over copier use, a co-worker who's on vacation showed up after hours to look for some textbooks to copy. And brought her husband. And gradeschool age kid. I am never getting out of here.

Ooh, I clicked on ita's link. But I like this shirt, it calls to the evil biologist in me. Or something.
I also like the one that says "Medium Pimpin'" and shows some coins...

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Yeah. Sober. I know.
Huh.
I don't want to do any more work today. I won't either, if I can get people to cooperate.

The most annoyed I get at tourists is school groups where the teacher will tell the kids to gather at the bottom of the escalator or to get on the train and stay right by the door. (I've seen both of these happen, multiple times, with groups of more than ten kids.) And then they complain that people in the city are so rude because they get pushed. No, you're being rude by purposely having a large group of people block the way of several hundred commutors.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
In high school, my route back to the Metro from crew practice used to take me right past the tourist trolley, ALL of whom would have their cameras out and rolling. Who cares about the Kennedy Center on your left, there's a sweaty native girl down there!!
