a day in the life...

There are drunk people in my lobby.
I resent their presence; I never understand why people feel the need to let themselves go so far. I've been drunk once; it isn't fun, so why??? A good buzz or even a little tipsy I can understand, but this...
The man's reeling; couldn't see the milk jug in front of his face. Walked in here with a cup of beer.
The woman has a set of headphones glued to her ears blaring rap music so loud that I can hear it clearly from all the way over here, bopping like she's cool, just like when they came up asking for a wake-up call last night. Maybe the man's been listening to them between then and now. Maybe he was struk deaf; you have to repeat anything you say to him.
Christ, I hope neither of them puke.
Woman's got the man sitting and eating (oh, good, I don't have to worry about him falling down anymore). She's getting herself toast. Coffee for both (thank god).
An elderly couple just came in, they're eating, but they plainly find the company distasteful, particularly the lady... Or maybe our doughnuts and coffee isn't good enough for them. (We get people like that now and then. Come in here thinking it's the Palmer House Hilton or something. There've actually been folk who thought we were going to move their luggage for them, lazy uppity buggers. No such service for $40 a room. Don't shoot the messenger.)
The drunks are gone. Elderly couple following... *sigh*

Sometimes I just don't like people.

WOO HOO, AND THEN THERE WERE TWO!!!!!

IT'S ON! Julie decided not to go, so it's just me and Raney!!! :-D
We can hang out till the cows come home!!!

*does a little dance*

We'll be coming in by train, Friday morning. :-)



CHICAGO, ILLINOIS

Music by Henry Mancini
Lyrics by Leslie Bricusse

Trendy trav'lers tend to talk of London, Paris, Rome, New York
Like only they were stylish and unique
But out in the midwest ist he city I love best
A town so smart its spelling starts with C-H-I-C
Chic!

* Chicago, Illinois, is like a shiny toy
The Prairie State is proud to state that it's its pride and toy
The Windy City sweeps ya clean off ya feet
Its charm is complete
They're knockin' ya flat
This way or that
On ev'ry donwton street
The white Sox and the Cubs and other sporting clubs
Make living here a pretty nifty ploy
Smack on the lake, this is a rare port

*** Someday, they say, we'll have an airport
When they say, "Hey, I'm from Chi"
They mean Chicago, Illi...
Chicago is a killer
They mean Chicago, Illi...
C H I C A G O Illinois!

The True You

You want your girlfriend or boyfriend to do more for you.

With respect to money, you spend carefully and save your pennies.

You think good luck might come your way, but if it does you'll be so surprised you'll burst out laughing.

The hidden side of your personality tends to be satisfied to care for things with a minimal amount of effort.

You are tend to think about others' feelings a lot, perhaps because you are so eager to be liked.

When it comes to finding a romantic partner, you base your search on information from your friends.

Who's the True You?

You shine with brilliant creativity, and you're more than a little eccentric. You love everything unusual and shocking. You're one far-out chick or dude. Anything unconventional excites you - and you have genius potential. Just don't let your rebel side get the best of you, or else you'll alienate everyone. Your original thinking and funky attitude is all you need to be you.
