Not a blind date, but it was a fix-up. Janet had seen me only from the chest down, however, and I was wearing tight bike shorts.
lyinghostage:
ooo. theres a difference.

I try not to post 'Customers Say The Darndest Things' very often, partly because most of them are only funny to me, but also because I could post about that every day and never talk about anything else. I have to make an exception for this one, though, because it's just too funny.

My two favorite customers came in today. They're an eccentric couple who...

Just in from a busy day of banging my head against the wall on the job-interview front. It started when I woke up to blinking numbers on the alarm clock and realized that there had been a power outage and I had slept in FOUR hours. No, really. It was like a bad movie. And, frankly, it's been downhill from there. I feel like Maggie...

So apparently, they either changed the date for the ACAD sale since I looked it up or it was misprinted because I just found out I missed it! I could honestly cry. I looked it up at least a month ago and wrote it on the calendar so that I couldn't possibly miss it. I sure as hell can't afford normally-priced art, so this was...

We will go to the next one, it just gives you more chance to save.

I was also quite disappointed.

Oh, and while I'm getting caught up...

A happy, happy birthday to lyinghostage and an equally joyous belated to meanwhilethecat.

It was great to see everyone last weekend (last weekend? I think it was last weekend); thanks to zenFish for being so considerate as to also have a birthday, thus creating an occasion.

What is it with you people and birthdays? Is getting older...

lyinghostage:
thanks so much for the birthday message.

*is flattered*

this is the first birthday ive had in a looong time that was actually fun.
cilantro:
Better than pictures, I think we should get together sometime this week! How bout it? You up for some Cori time?

And as for the toothy research- I'd love to hear what you've found out. So far I'm not sure about this one... It may just be because its swollen and the jewlerry is too big, but it rubs badly on my gums when I eat. I may have to repierce.

Anyway, ramble ramble. Give me a call sometime this week if you like... 830-9559. kiss

I JUST GOT THE NET HOOKED UP AT HOME!

I have not had a net hook-up since April and I have not had cable TV for three years now (still don't). I don't really hear well enough to like listening to the radio. So basically, I've been living under a rock. I'm pretty damn proud of myself for not going absolutely apeshit all by myself...

You know it's time to look for a new job when even sex toys don't make the day any better. So, naturally, that's my project starting today (job hunting, not sex toys). For your amusement, I will first entertain you with the opening lines of last night's staff meeting:

"Let us first be clear on one thing and one thing only: In our world, only...

Last night around ten pm I'd finally had it with the boss. She said something particularly atrocious, so I pulled her aside and went on a semi-offensive and ill-advised rant. It was something about how she was not employing me as a favour; we had entered into what should be a mutually beneficial business agreement and that if she felt I worked there due to...

Every so often, you hear a sentance and realize that, given its originality and given the vastness of the English language, that sentance has probably never before been uttered. A perfect example would be the one that I just heard:

"So, naturally, I thought: what a waste of a dead monkey!"
rue_:
Thats sounds like a Charles utteration. If utteration is a word. Nonetheless. It sounds like him.
masquerade:
What are you supposed to do with a dead monkey?

I just got MISTAKEN FOR A BOY! surreal

I'm over at my parents' place hanging out with my brother and my parents are having a jam session tonight. One of my dad's friends just walked through the kitchen, nodded at the two of us and said 'Gentlemen"! Alastair almost fell off his chair laughing. He salvaged it nicely by saying "Holy crap! Is he blind or...

Weird day at work today. I set the alarm early to give myself plenty of time to make myself presentable, and then ended up not even brushing my hair. Within the first five minutes of work, I splashed coffee cream all over my face, hair and the front of my shirt. It was the perfect porno cum shot. I could not have done that if...
