Those Borders Goons

Caution: This blog my contain material that will be offensive to those who like big bookstores, coffee, "intellectualism" without regard to the physical aspect of life, and those who want to be those type of people. Also this blog relies heavily on unfair stereotypes, so please accept my apology to those who think they are excluded.

So I went waltzing into the local Borders today and got a whole bunch of weird looks from all the "intellectual" soft handed nay-sayers that dress up and go out to eat at the Cafe. These thirty-something females with their up-wards of sixty year old men friends must have thought that I looked funny in my running clothes with my face red still from my run. I guess I should have walked in with a Bowfles shirt on, or with liatards from my Pilates.

I would be more angry if Borders didn't pay my rent each month, but these type places are such a haven for the fakers.

Anyway, you get the picture. I decided against writing more. Suffice it to say that from now on I will wear the poorest, most unhip clothes to said store in hopes of unnerving the bloomers, and causing them to think that their haven is under attack by the proletariat.

Recent needle punctures

So this weekend I got to give a bunch a shots. It was nerve-racking because as a former resipient of shots I know how much they can hurt. Now I was the one putting the hurt on someone else and I just felt kind of bad. Then I had to get a shot and didn't feel bad for anyone.

I hung some pictures in my house today, and made french toast for breakfast. It was good. I put actual vermontian syrup on one, and lemon yogurt on the other three.

Has anyone heard of Tomcats Screaming Outside?

I have to work tomorrow.

Historic 51st Post

Obviously this is a day of great celebration at my home. It is not everyday that one gets to post his 51st Blog. So without further adieu here it is:

Yesterday I played Battleship for the first time in a long time and it was pretty fun; I also played Jenga, Chess, and Hearts. It was quite the fun time at work.

I also decided that I will no longer support Travelocity.com. I called their customer support line to ask about a credit transfer on some tickets. It was obvious from the start that the customer service rep that was helping me was not a native english speaker. I thought, "Well that is ok." When I was transferred to another rep I thought, "This might go better." I quickly realized that both of the reps had english as a second language, and though they might be quite adept at helping people from their native country they could scarce understand me. This lead to me becoming frustrated and vowing a boycott on their services, because of their greedy outsourcing. Also it pissed me off because they suck at helping me. I would invite all who read this to join my global fight against the outsourcers.

Well, I also realized that I don't really have Halloween weekend off, I forgot that I took a couple of shifts for a guy.

Aw Nuts

In Other News

I ate some pizza this evening for dinner, because it seemed to be the popular thing to do, and I always do whatever is popular.

I had an exciting day at work today. I got to put someone in a time from which they could not escape, which was the whole point. It was quite a rush. I also got to make coffee, change newly dirty sheets and clothes, and watch someone cry. It was exhausting.

Later in the day I got to watch Law and Order. The one where Jack's old assistant is found to have manipulated some evidence so she could help Jack get a promotion. Also in the episode the viewer finds out that Jack is sleeping with Claire. The viewer also realizes that he has seen this same episode several times, and while it is not so bad to watch Simpsons over and over, Law and Order for the third or fourth time is not as good, like a piece of home-made bread that sat out after being cut.

That reminds me that home-made bread is very good especially right out of the oven with some butter.

New Evidence in GO-GURT Conspiracy

I know this is all over the news, but today on the cover of the Wall Street Journal the headline read, "Go-Gurt All the Rage". In my mind this is the greatest tragedy of the year. I read another, supposedly unrelated article on B12 titled "President Names Spork National Utensil". The connection was clear enough to me. The maniacal Spork Lobby has finally succeeded in their quest to do away with the spoon. Last week unknown to most of the world, the Spork Lobby pushed a bill through Congress that put Go-Gurt on to the presidents plate for the first time. It was expected that it would take several months for the president to agree with Go-Gurt and 'Lose the Spoon'. It seems that his reaction has been quicker than anticipated as he quickly passed Resolution 90-9URT which made it illegal for a spoon to be used in the Oval Office, the US Senate, and the hotdog stands surrounding the Washington Monument.

No one here in this office quite knows what to make of these developments, but the history books will record them as the most lasting contribution of this administration.

In the morning

I am going to eat with my sister in the morning. I think I will have a ham and cheese omelet. If I am lucky it will be full of fake ingredients and fat, but it will taste really good. I've decided that it is no use to fight against "low-carb" diets. Dr. Atkins wins.

Otherwise, I worked a double shift last night, and I'm not tired because I slept until 1 PM today. I think I'll try playing a video game to pass the time.

Possibly this week I will start buying components for my new computer which I will name "Brother Numsee".
