Robin - he with the no-radio auto-tranny Wrangler - had at this point spent about five minutes studying a Sam’s Club receipt as if it held the answer to the mystery of the universe.*
Anyway, driving down Shawan Road I was pacing this guy. If you’ll notice, his overhead lights are pointed … up. I can only guess he wants God to see where he is at all times.
But the Wizard, or the Prince?
*The answer, if you’re curious, is 42.
Brett mentioned at work today that he’d aquired a DVD screener of Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, and inquired if I might like a copy of it? It was all I could do to not plant a big sloppy kiss on his cheek.
In other good news, Scary Post Guy told me that the Baltimore regional office of USPS would post job openings for city carriers on Monday. Also, I recieved a packet from Gaithersburg about an exam-prep seminar. Still no word on when the actual Gaithersburg exam is, but as mentioned before - I’d rather work with the Baltimore office (much closer).
And in, “oh my god I could die” news, my parents asked me to come down so we can talk other debt consolidation options. I had to scramble to track down all my debt info … addresses, account numbers, APRs, boy that was fun. More on this … later.
So, all in all, it’s been a really excellent day. It would have been The Best Day Ever but I never closed my subscription to Quadratec, an after-market company geared towards Jeeps, and today I recieved a catalog from them … instead of being able to flip through it (let’s face it, Quadratec to me is what Penthouse is to other people), I was quite dissapointed — I had the front page, and the back page, but all the pages in between were gone. Son of a …!
I saw Empire of the Sun last night for the first time. You know the weirdest thing about seeing that movie? Because I know Christian Bale primarily through American Psycho, it was a little odd to see in this child the same features of the man who enjoys chopping people up with axes and chainsaws while waxing poetic about Huey Lewis & the News. I think when I see Batman Begins I’ll have images of Bruce Wayne beating up bad guys and then going back to his mansion to torture girls to death.
