    Seriously I don't know if this is a rant or a rave. Coming home on the F train just now this guy turns to me (I am hiding my hideous face with my nose in a novel) and asks me what stop is next. I'm like, um Bergen. He goes "I am getting ready to have a panic attack, can you talk to me until we get out of the tunnel?" I have known people to have panic attacks and it's really ceepy so I launch into this ridiculous like "oh I see you're drinking cranberry juice and what is that you're reading...." in this really soothing, calming voice. So I talk to him until just before Smith/9th and then he gets off.

    So here's my thing. If you KNOW you have panic attacks on the train, shouldn't you navigate on busses?

    Well if he was really smart, he would take a yoga class....

    The odds are good. ...but the goods are odd.

    NO, seriously he was NOT hitting on me. I have some sort of facial edema right now and I am not attractive.

    And whynot, first of all why aren't you at the Gate, and second of all, yoga is an awesome place to meet a date!

    Rave: the $115 parking ticket I got in mid-February still hasn't shown up in the Parking Violations Bureau database. Big win for me.

    Rant: having to work when half the city is off. The trains were seriously empty this morning.

    I dunno, I've gotten lots of tickets and this is the first time that nothing is showing in the database for my plate or ticket number and I haven't received a second warning. But this ticket is reaaaaally illegible, especially plate number, so maybe..

    Perhaps if I am not a leper of if we go when it's dark out I can go tomorrow night, but not Saturday.

    And Carmen, my mommy used to send THE BEST care packages, waaaay after college, Including snacks and things for my roommates and stuff. Now she's broke ass so she sends nothing (apart from the pidge) but my friend's mom sends me Rx type prezzies wheeeeeee! I'll take a baggie of valium over a stuffed bunny ANY DAY!
