yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa (and other stories)
subtitle: yaaaaaaaaa
not a single one of the following things merits a post of its own, so it’s time for a good (relatively), old-fashioned numbered list. yaaaaaaaaaaa(y).
1. i’ve been working on curbing my blasphemy lately, but i do have an important question. okay, so i’m sure you’re familiar with the phrase “good lord.” what i want to know is, does god ever say “good me”? i totally hope he does.
2. i’ve discovered that the major problem with knowing someone who lives far away and does not return phone calls in a prompt manner (or at all, i guess) is that i’m never going to run into this person casually, like at the grocery store while i’m purchasing essential items such as snickers bars, avacadoes and cosmo. this means, of course, that i’m never going to get to ask, “hey, why you ain’t call* me?” damn the luck.
3. sometimes i wish water didn’t taste so much like water.
4. i learned today that this lady who scares the hell out of me is on the board of directors for my new place of employment. how did i find this out? she came up to me, scared the hell out of me, congratulated me on the new job and said “i’m on the board of directors.” i think i find this less than thrilling.
5. i’m never going to do this, but if i ever were to change my name, i’d change it to “charming demeanor.” that way, i could have the following conversation at least once in my life:
“have a seat, miss demeanor.”
“please, call me charming.”
and that is all. lovely evening to you.
