If You Haven't Seen "Little Miss Sunshine" You Might Want To Skip the First Paragaph

[snurri]

I just saw "Little Miss Sunshine" last night, and when they flashed to Alan Arkin during the ceremony I had a moment of shock, because I was thinking he was still dead.

Things which it would be hard to believe have ever happened to anyone else: last night I had my headphones on, listening to iTunes while I wrote, and I started air-drumming to the Poster Children, pen in hand. I was into it, head bobbing, eyes closed. I opened my eyes to find that the pen had begun to leak ink, and droplets of black ink were all over the wall, blinds, and futon.

Also, I was nearly run over on my way home, and I wasn't even jaywalking. Stupid right-turning Chicago drivers. I think I may have hurt my hand banging on the guy's hood. Typing with two fingers in an improvised splint? Not so very easy.

I downloaded some "Ugly Betty" and it may be my new favorite show. (I still love you, Veronica, but it's not as easy as it once was.)

Thanks, it does feel better today. Kept two of my fingers immobilized overnight, and they're a bit sore but otherwise fine.

Glad we're both not dead! :-)

I KNOW!

My brush was more of a... um... glance? Glare.

It just astonishes me the way the douches drive in the WP. I've almost been run over on foot in my hood SO MANY TIMES. And I'm talking about the times when I'm crossing the street with the light, in a crosswalk, when I have the right of way.

It would be different if I was jaywalking, then I would have no right to bitch.

Ditto!

And dude, snurri, looks like you have a posse near at hand if you ever want to go after your stupid driver. ;)
