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.

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.
