from me to you

(beware -- the gratuitous use of the digital camera has yet
to cease)
(I found this on the This
American Life
web site and it just cracked me up.)
Well, first off. Happy Freakin' Valentines Day. From me to you.
Kiss. Kiss.
 
I'm even wearing the snazzy t-shirt in honor of the day:
Love Hound. Heh.
(I can't believe I took a picture of my breasts for you people.)
So, does everyone have plans for this festive occasion? I do.
I do.
Of course, Valentines has never been my favorite holiday. I
went into detail about that last year. Because my history
with the holiday is not so swell. And, yes, I think getting dumped
on Valentines is enough to scar anyone.
But. Then. I don't know. The bug has kind of crept up and got
me as of late and now I'm all about eating out and buying gifts
on this most commercialized of holidays.
But it hasn't been without a bit of panic. The man kind of dropped
the ball. I asked him on Tuesday about our reservations because
we'd talked WEEKS ago about trying this Italian restaurant down
the block from us. Guess what, he never called. Guess what, they
were packed when he did call on Tuesday. So, there we were. Two
days before Valentine's and let me tell you folks, trying to get
into an Italian restaurant two days before Valentine's is practically
impossible. I bet even the stupid Olive Garden is booked.
We did find something, though. I've been there before, but that's
okay. It should still be a swell evening. Catastrophe averted.
I did notice my onions left me a little gift for Valentine's
day:
How sweet. And people say I should grow paperwhites instead.

Pet Peeve: People who wait for the elevator and surround
it when it opens not giving room to the people on the inside to
get out. I mean, c'mon people. The elevator is not going to take
off without you. Just let me out already. And don't just back
up in the direction I am moving in. Honestly, I'm trying to get
out of YOUR way.
(And I get extra pissy about the people who act all put out because
I have a DOG and they don't want the DOG near them. Then quit
waiting for the elevator with your nose to the door! Then maybe
my dog won't want to sniff your crotch!)

Did I ever tell you I have a column in the middle of my flat?
For over a year now, I keep tell myself I'm going to do something
with it. But I never do. I've also hit my head on it on a number
of occasions. Don't ask me how. I don't know either.

And for the record, the new Suzanne Vega CD, "Songs
in Red and Grey" is awesome. Totally. Totally awesome.
Although, I have no idea why the cover of my CD
is different than the one on the bn.com site.

Can you tell I don't have much to say so I walked around the
apartment taking pictures instead?
Thought so.
