david cross-in' my legs
okay. i had the most awkward public bathroom experience i've had in a while today. and it wasn't even a completely public bathroom. it was the office ladies' room.
there are only two stalls and when i went in there someone was in my favorite. so there you go, already awkward. so i went in the gaping handicapped stall and got total stage fright. so did whomever was in the good stall. we both sat there, silent, not peeing or otherwise, for what seemed an eternity but was probably only about 2.5 - 3 minutes. i finally gave up because i had to go to some meeting (which was almost just as uncomfortable for completely unrelated reasons) and i prayed (i'm hyperbolizing) that my fellow frightened actress wouldn't also emerge from her cell. that would have been truly mortifying.
she didn't.
i washed my hands quickly, feeling guilty for having interupted what i can only infer was a numero dos.
gross.
i don't do that. i'm a lady.
alright. i feel much better having gotten that off my chest. tomorrow is a new day full of a pot of pre-work coffee, water-cooler-water and too many trips to the bathroom.
another thing about the office bathroom is there's a couch in there. in high school (maybe junior high, this is a really stupid anecdote and i'm sorry to waste your time) we used to tell boys that we had a couch in our bathroom. it was a lie. but there really is one at The Post-Star.

Fun With Google Street View
I'm a sucker for Google Street View. I find it useful to get a sense of what a new destination looks like, so that when I make a journey, I know what I'm looking for. For instance, I used it to figure out exactly where the guitar shop I was planning to visit was located and where I could potentially find parking.
Other people, people who have even more time to kill than I do, have been examining the relatively new feature and finding some interesting activities captured by the car-mounted camera. My favorite so far: This apparent drug deal.
These were taken from the premier source for Street View and Google satellite finds, GoogleSightseeing.com.
A few of my favorites are:
Street Fight!
Multi-Vehicle Accident
and the Flying Car
If you happen to find anything of note, please let me know.

freaky friday
so i had a really relaxing friday night. i can't decide if it was cool or lame, but either way, i did my laundry, and that was a chore i'd been putting off for a whole entire week.
i also discovered the television series from the early '90s, Swamp Thing.
awwww yeeaaahhhhh. i'm a fan of Alan Moore's Swamp Thing. the show doesn't hold a candle to the comic, but i suppose that's to be expected.
paul, i'm guessing you already knew about this show, but you can watch it on openhulu.com.
do it. you won't be disappointed. everything about it is brilliant. i have tentative plans with shawn tonight. if she ends up ditching me for a dude, i'll be okay. i'll have dr. arcane and friends.
