i think this to myself at work about every other day. is it really necessary for everyone to freak out about EVERYTHING? note to my co-workers: the world will not stop spinning if we fail to solve every minor annoyance five minutes ago. and my calm demeanor never seems to have an effect, which ironically MAKES ME WANT TO HIT THESE PEOPLE, OVER AND OVER.

 

maybe i just don't care enough. or maybe these people need to watch some bob ross. or just calm down and eat some fruit or something. 

this morning i had to defrost my car. also this morning, i followed a fifty-something male in a black audi tt WITH THE TOP DOWN. seriously, dude: it's thirty degrees out. nothing screams mid-life crisis like an idiot in a shiny car, freezing himself to death.

 

speaking of being thirty degrees out: i have been resisting, but i finally broke out the wool coat last night. i walked uptown for lunch on monday [monday, do you remember monday? the day that brief flurries of SNOW fell from the sky? yes, THAT monday], a lightweight khaki jacket my only outerwear. clearly i missed the weather report. however, i stupidly marched on with only the khaki jacket on tuesday as well. and though i didn't trudge around outside for lunch, it was still mighty cold walking from building to building, even for only minutes at a time. today i gave in: the wool coat and scarf made their appearance. and you know what? i forgot how warm that thing is. and cozy; very cozy. cold? it scoffs. what cold? i laugh at the wind. winter be damned! it sounds weird, but my coat is the favorite part of my day today. now i just need to find someplace where i can get it relined and get the various tears on the inside fixed, so i don't go from hey, what a nice professional looking coat while i'm walking around, to hey, is she a hobo? when i take it off.

i've totally been enjoying this website for awhile now. and i'm finally getting around to posting for your enjoyment. because i love you. who knew charts and venn diagrams could be so fun?
