The Non-Post
I am too tired to do a real post. So all you'll get is this fake one. See? It's not even really here. Figment of your imagination.
However, I know that sucks. I know some people wake up very early in their houses when everyone else is asleep and just like in the commercials, they get a cup of coffee and sit down to read. I'm so sorry I'm disappointing you. This does not mean that I'm going to do a real post for you. Because I'm not. But I will give you this: I've made notes for the two ideas I had rolling around in my head this morning. And one of those posts is roommate-related, though not in the way you're thinking.
I'll try to bang something out this weekend, and get one of the two going on Monday.
So for now I leave you with these random tidbits:
1. I saw Cat Lady today. She was late for work. She looks exactly the same.
2. One of the partners I work for had me type up three notepads worth of notes he made during three different depositions. This sounds easy, but really, it's tedious as all get out and lawyers write almost as badly as doctors. The partner e-mailed me a thank you for the good job I did, and cc'd the HR chick.
3. I ran into said HR chick on the bus going home today, and it was not at all awkward.
4. Tomorrow is jeans day!
5. This whole idea of having blog-friends is really weird and really nice, all at the same time.
6. I was e-mailing with someone a couple of weeks ago and banged out a mildly funny scenario to her. It was some damn fine writing, if I do say so myself. But I feel like it's cheating to take that and make it into a blog post. Tempting as hell.
7. Thanks, and... sorry Jimmy, we're out of time.

Do it. Do it! I'm not going to flatter myself by believing you'll post it just because I said so. But it was funny. And almost believable.
On the same token, we DID have a few funky locks to deal with on our trip...
thanks for caring about me and my morning.
I am outing myself as a lurker. there is no shame in writing about strange happenings with friends and family. If it were, David Sedaris would be a poor man.
I love that Sarah Silverman sketch. Only because I should have been her in that one.
We have lotsa cats around here, minus the cat ladies. They musta ate 'em.
Am I the weird part or the nice part? I need to know.
If it weren't for LN, I may have been destined to become a cat lady... I was on the verge of rescuing a third kitty when LN came along. So be nice to cat ladies... it could have been me.
