Amazon hates us.
I'd be really pissed about all of this, but then I remember that there is really no point in getting pissed. We have 2 weeks of school left. I am not trying to be popular. But I also don't tolerate chaos well.
You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Oh, and the Cubs are up 1-0.
Um, tommyrot? Cubs aren't playing until 9:40 tonight. (Tried to find From the Cubicle and nada!)

I am trying to decide how much to spend on a wedding shower present. Is $35-40 not enough?

Personally Kat I think having a reputation for being a bit of a hardass now might work in your favor come next year.
sigh. I'm at bagel number 2. I guess I'll be good at dinner.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well, I was watching a Cubs game at the restaurant. Must have been a rerun. Or from the future....
They were playing the Dodgers. Dempster was pitching.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
This is for a wedding that you're in? I always thought shower gifts were optional for members of the wedding party; they're supposed to be invited to all the showers, but they're not required to get a present for every single one. And, since they're presumably spending a chunk on being in the wedding in the first place, if they do bring a shower gift it doesn't have to be a pricey one.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh god, that reminds me. I got invited to a baby shower for someone that I don't think I'm friends with. We were definitely friendly in grad school, but never much beyond that. But I do like her! But I still don't know if I care enough to go to the suburbs to give her a present, the week before she moves out of New York. You know?

Tornado watch! No wonder my sinuses are goink bonkers.
This is for a wedding that you're in?
Yes. I've been invited to multiple showers, but I can only make one.
