today i walked out my door and--there's a bus stop right there? and this important guy was standing there. one who i want to give me a job. of course, it was the day i ate oreos for breakfast. in fact, i still had a bunch of them clutched in my fist, and i'm sure i had disgusting oreo crumb mouth because while we were talking he was very twitchy and kept surreptitiously licking his own lips, as if to clear them of fantasy oreo filth.
sometimes, you think you have lots of friends, but then there's no one to go drinking with. worse, there's no one to play scrabble with. and then you realize what you really have is a lot of very cool acquaintances who say "i love you" at parties.
day three. it's going to be okay. i still seem to like sleeping during the day much more than sleeping at night, but the phone calls are actually starting to help. and it's not cold here, and i have my very own apartment that i can run around naked in and be untidy, so neener.
it's also day three of the new building in dayjobland. today was the first time i had to use the bathroom during work hours (i know. i have a super bladder, though, and am chronically dehydrated). and i discovered that unlike the last dayjobland building, this one does not have those creepy autoflush toilets. those creepy autoflush toilets made a terrible noise right before they gushed, this kind of creepy squeek like a door opening on rusty hinges or a baby making the wrong noise or possibly a catamount. i'm happy to flush by hand.
