Random Journal update version 6.13
-Last night I met the guy who lives on the other side of the fence, behind the dumpster at my apartments.
He actually said it to me "You know when you throw your trash in the dumpster? I'm the guy who lives on the other side of the fence. I see you all the time." Which is funny because I sometimes wait a bit longer than I should to empty the trash.
-edited because for some reason this seems funnier if you realize that he doesn't live in a house on the other side of the fence, more of a mattress type encampment deal, I once actually brought my trash back into the house to dumpster later when I realized that it was 7:30am and he was still sleeping and there were beer bottles in my trash, tossing it in the freshly emptied dumpster would have made a bit of noise. (we don't have recycling of glass here, just newspaper, aluminum and plastic, go figure.)
-We kicked ass at trivia, only got two questions wrong and neither are questions that I am at all ashamed of getting wrong. What would Barbie's chest measurement be if she was human sized? and some question about an Indy car driver that I would never get right in a million years, I hate racing (except watching the occasional crash replay ) and our team name was cool, 'ovary action' . (yes, we were a chick team)
-to the high school aged boys who play tennis at the court behind my apartment, can't you think of ANYTHING more original than 'Pink' to call me? Try to make an effort at originality in your name calling, you bore me.
-To the Atlanta Fulton Public Library System, I completely understand why you don't want to give library cards out to the homeless, but try that argument when you are the one telling these guys no.
-To the librarian who allowed the homeless man in front of me to check out two books on Saturday even though he told you the truth, that he no longer lived at the address on file because he was homeless, thank you for letting him check out the books, I was getting ready to offer up my card to check out his books, and I know how much you wished that he had just lied to you and said that he did still live at the address on file, because while we all realized the truth, it would have been easier if he hadn't been so honest.
-I finally got my pool key.
-awesome random thing that I got last night. It's a rubber bracelet like the ones that support charities. While I have no issue with supporting charities, the over abundance of these has become nauseating and I read an article a while back from a NY paper that a fair number of them weren't really supporting the charities that they purported to. Anyway mine is that style, black and on the front in white it reads DEATH. This was amusing enough to me especially because of the conservativeness and easily freaked-outness of my some of my coworkers, since we were having a new managers photo taken today, it was the perfect addition to my ensemble. But even more amusing to me is that when I was putting it on it flipped over and the inside reads "EVERYTHING IS NOT GOING TO BE OK" in black on the black bracelet. It made me laugh so hard and I have been running around saying it all day. (And for the record, my death bracelet should appear fairly prominently in the managers photo)
-I have been volunteered to take the campus photos for our store's Corporate/ University 'statement' brochure this year (yes, TRe, I mean the APR) on a year that is especially important because we will be up for bid. (another comment that only TRe will probably understand)
What it means is that I get to run around campus taking photos. Kick ass.
-So what does everyone think of Batwoman?
Now I don't mean that she's now gay, per se (I assume that most of the people that read my journal are open- minded enough not to have an issue with but more likely even to appreciate the idea of a gay superheroine)
My question is what are they going to do with her storyline?
Who is she going to date?
It seems to me (and I make no claims to being a comic person, I like comics {or graphic novels even, if you are on of those people
} but don't regularly follow them) that it's a good idea that is going to wind up bad or worse yet, boring.
-that said, here is a good cause to support if you like causes, I like the principle and the kick ass t-shirts. What I don't know about comics, I do know about the recent court cases involving them, I keep up on them.
Oh yeah, and go buy Barbed Wire Kiss because everyone needs more porn!
