Confessions from the Losers Club*

*The Losers Club is an official 501(c)3** organization of which I am a charter member. It is made up of people who work late on Friday night. Like the AARP, you automatically recieve membership if you are at work on multiple Friday nights past eight PM.


I just ate ice cream, so as not to spoil my dinner.
Yes, Mom, I know you don't think this would ever work, but because of my work schedule (afternoons and evenings) I tend to get hungry for lunch around 5:00 PM. However, if I actually ate lunch at that time, I wouldn't eat dinner, and my boyfriend would kill me. Plus, there is an Edy's across the street.

Jaywalking should be sorta like abortion - Safe, legal, and rare
Yeah, the Edy's across the street? Its rush hour, and and you're not going anywhere. I will jaywalk and I dare a cop to ticket me. Perhaps instead of ticketing jaywalkers, you should be DIRECTING TRAFFIC or TOWING DOUBLEPARKERS. Argh.

People who cough when walking past a smoker
Individuals from my office often sit outside and enjoy a cigarette. The time that my office last took this field trip was the aforementioned trip to Edy's. They have tables outside, where we enjoyed our icecream and paused while cigarettes were smoked. A group of people walked out the door, shot all of us (smokers and nonsmokers) dirty looks and began coughing lightly. I think I (as a former smoker) was the only one who actually noticed. But excuuuuse me - what do you expect will happen with a smoking ban? I need to get more involved with the much cooler people.

Yes, you are right Walk Left, Stand Right

My boss gave me a bottle of wine! I'm not really sure why, but it will be a nice addition to the weekend.

I had high Hopes for this website... when I saw its description on The DCiever but I am as of yet unimpressed. I need to take a more detailed look at it, and perhaps contribute something to it myself.

I'm going home before I re-do my whole template.

Why do I keep screwing up my HTML tags? I keep closing a link instead of closing the italics - and somehow blogger decided that it needed to step in and tell me that. In fact, I am more annoyed that I cannot type a "" as an example.




**If you believe that we're really a 501(c)3 organization then you are offically a member of the "Gullible Idiots Club." Hold your breath until you get the tee shirt.
