my month of stupid

1) got a call this morning from a friend of mine around ten thirty. though the number wasn't programmed i recognized it as her office line. odd, i thought that she'd be at the office on a saturday. so i asked what she was doing there. and she asked right back, why wouldn't she be there? because silly, people don't normally work on the weekends -- of course it was friday.

2) opened a tab at this hermosa beach bar called union cattle this past saturday night. unfortunately, they require you to leave an id. so i handed them my passport. and then left 3 hours later without my credit card or passport. which left me with no way to get through security at lax for my flight the next day. so instead of dumplings at the world-famous din-tai-fung i sat outside the bar, hoping someone would show up early enough for me to not miss my flight home.

3) why was i carrying my passport? good question. because i lost my wallet in a cab. this i blame on the funny pocket design on my jacket that go all the way through. this means you can miss the pocket entirely when trying to put something in by reaching past it. of course, ten minutes later i made the same mistake with my mobile. this i blame on myself.

4) feeling a little under the weather, i purchased a sandwich on my way home from work one evening. i walked up to the counter paid for it, and then left it on the counter. awesome. special thanks to the bitch at the register who decided to let me walk out with my purchase so she had a free dinner. she could've got it free too, i bet.

5) i take the train to work everyday. well after 365+ days of practice, i still struggle with finding the right one. well at least i have twice this month.

fucking leap year. like i needed an extra day.
