That reminds me of the best birthday card ive ever gotten. It had this weird picture on the front of a guy who was just a nose and an eyeball. Then inside it said, "Eye nose it's your birthday."

I'm still pissed that they wouldn't let me keep my appendix. It's MY goddamn appendix.

I just received an e-mail/meeting invite that had the word "henceforth" in it. Really.

This lady I work with has a bunch of filing cabinets right next to my desk. She's been opening them and slamming them shut for the last 45 minutes. I wish she would just sit the f*ck down.

Oh, I believe it.

But I don't believe for one nanosecond that Natalie Portman banged Willie C.

I'm sitting in the waiting room of the car service place (free wifi!) waiting for inspection to complete. There's 7 old ladies, 1 old man, and two younger women (ugly) sitting around me. Everyone is quitely reading, no one talking, but the one younger woman is talking pretty loudly on her cell phone. Is that rude? It seems like it should be, but it is a non-library public space.

i'm convinced that old people at the supermarket intenionally screw with me.

I'm about to board an experimental flight.

It's simple. About a dozen couples have decided today is the day that they will begin parenting their children by not giving in to their tantrums.

I can tell becasue the kids seem genuinely perplexed that their shreiking and keening and kicking and punching and bumping into strangers no longer produces the desired result. You can actually see them reach conclusions... "Oh, I need to increase the volume of my voice".... "Perhaps I should randomly stagger the gutteral noises I'm making.".... "No. Louder.".... "Throw food."... "Attack".... "Why hasn't security taken me and my parents away?"

Now, the cabinet is in pieces.

Not experimental at all. A basic tenet of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA). It takes a lot of willpower and suspension of empathy and sympathy, but it works.

Going on 2.5 hours at the auto service so far. So much for getting home from work early today.
