I still think I'll end up writing a book at some point. I just have too much to say.

I stopped to talk to a homeless person last week who had a small brass statue of an elephant on his tray where he was collecting coins from passersby. I asked him what the elephant was for and he shrugged, but when I turned to walk away he called me back and very seriously asked me if I could please get everyone to stop killing the elephants.

Here is my attempt to get the word out: Hey everybody, please stop killing the Elephants!

Thanks.

There was a work meltdown today due to a banana.

"Someone" was a little sensitive about sad looking bananas in a manual that was supposed to be printed....

We think "someone" might have a little problem!

I have a strange sense of schadenfreude to realize that my horrible job from before Christmas only has three original employees left. (excluding the manager and two owners) The management has behaved so poorly that two former colleagues and three non-english programmers saw the light and have quit in the two months since I've quit.

You should know about my penchant for mediocre speakers, there is always so much more food for thought in poor speakers than good ones.

I would have thought it impossible, but my brother's car odometer is 10 km/h slower than my car's odometer. He thinks I'm speeding... and that I'm looking for an excuse.

I got 2nd degree burns today, from a Starbucks incident involving coffee from their cheap coffee thermoses. That's right, the coffee which usually isn't hot enough to drink, burned my arm. And to make matters worse the burn is in an interesting imprint of my ribbed sweater. It includes pussy blisters.

Good idea from a friend: have an un-shower party (for the too-picky carreer girls like us?!)

Yes, I could show off all of my stuff! "Here is where I keep the mismatched set of yellow and orange towels my mom got for her wedding from Aunt So-and-so that she never liked and never used, and over here I keep my stylish 70s tupperware sets, all discards from a sympathetic female relative! Have a seat in my mismatched chairs and sofa.

Please have pity on me and leave money in the fruit bowl on the counter on your way out..."
