Addiction incarnate

I've been playing this for entirely too long already.

Unbelievable fact of the day

My sister just told me that she has over fifty handbags. I was certain this was some sort of joke, but she assures me she is serious.

Three handbags would be too many, in my opinion. WTF, mate?

Memorable Firsts

My girlfriend giving me a wedgie (just happened). Seriously?

Two Canadians

are sitting at a bar, bored to hell, so they decide to play 20 questions. The first Canadian thinks for a moment, and with a chuckle, decides that his word will be "moosecock." He says, "Ok, I've got a good one."

The second Canadian says, "Ok, first question: is it something good to eat?"

The first Canadian laughs a little, but replies, "Yeah, I guess you could say that."

The second Canadian says, "Is it moosecock?"

Static Moment

So, this guy designed today's TeeFury shirt, and his portfolio is wicked. Just thought I'd mention that.

Not to complain...

I'm supposed to be called as a telephonic witness to some kind of insurance hearing within a half hour (in either direction) of 2:30 p.m., yet it is now 3:09 p.m. and I am sitting here afraid to do anything else lest I be unready to fulfill my duties when this call comes through.

On the bright side, I am already on the clock at work, and am currently getting paid to watch snow fall. Bless the system.

Purchased today's shirt.woot - totally awesome!

Random and awesome lyric

"Kick kick, shuffle shuffle back to the beach, with a tune on my lips and my quest in reach..."

Dispatch, "Bang Bang"

Slightly retarded toll booth attendant

So, the other day, I was on a mini-road trip of sorts, and I was unfortunately not in my car (no EZPass). The toll was $5.95, to go over some bridge or other, and I handed the guy a twenty. Right after he had taken it out of my hand, I realized something, and said, "Hold on, I have a single." 

Not only was I proud of myself for a) remembering this, and b) making this man's night a little easier, but I was looking forward to c) having a better assortment of bills in my wallet.

But what does the schmuck do, instead? He looks at me condescendingly, as if his IQ is clearly at least three times mine, and sneers, "Doesn't help me." In fact, it was almost "Doesn't help me?" - there was the faintest trace of a question mark in there, which is a really annoying habit that some people have, and which really ticks me off on occasion.

Seriously? You make change for a living. Making change is your livelihood. You feed your children with your change-making skills. Yet you can't figure out that it's easier to give me change of $21.00 than $20.00, when the charge is $5.95? Fuck off and die slowly, please.

And thanks a lot for the nine singles, asshole.
