On an unrelated note, I had to share a funny story from lunch earlier today. I went to my favorite crack sandwich shop, and was standing there in line minding my own damn business. Now, I work at a University so I am used to seeing "interesting" people on a daily basis, but this dude comes in behind me, looking like a cross between Mark Cohen from RENT and a hobo (PS - while searching on Wikipedia, I learned something new about my name). So anyway, Mark the Hobo preceeded to push my "personal space" line to the limit the entire time, including getting close enough to look into my purse while I was paying for the crack sandwich. The people who work there all know me, and were laughing as we were partaking in that game of "I take one step away, you take two closer". It was beyond weird.

Speaking of weird.

How many times have you showed up at a party of 20 that was BYOB and seen this much tequila on the counter?

(I would also like to point out this party was at my mom's house. And that there is a handle bottle of the same crap missing - where could it have gone?)


I see TNB has been hitting it hard....

I'd be on the floor in minutes at that party :-) Looking at the picture brings up bad, bad, hazy memories.

I had two ladies doing that to me at the airport once...even though I kept hitting them with my carryon, they just didn't get it.

I'd be on the floor at that party, too! Um, your holiday knitting list scares me...

I was in line at a salad bar last week and had this guy seriously invading my personal space. He's lucky I didn't spork him.
