I kind of want a longboard. Though, 1) I don't really have a useful purpose for it (yet), 2) they're a wee bit expensive, and 3) I'm not ballsy enough to ride in the city (I can bike because I feel like I have more control, but skating or boarding-- it spells disaster!). Reasons aside, I would still like one (at some point). Longboards have a smoother ride, I think, compared to skateboards. And that's what I like about them.

What do you count as one week: Monday to Sunday, or Sunday to Saturday?

On the subway the other day, I saw an ad using... Comic Sans. I almost turned to the person standing next to me and said, "Can you believe this??!!" Then I realized most people don't care. (Comic Sans... inconceivable!)

"Your lady, she's been... photocopying." Ah, the spoofing.

I was sitting at my desk at work when, out of the corner of my eye, I saw a pretty big spider creeping along my desk. It was flesh-toned and speckled with dark spots; it also had two antennae waving from its head. My reaction: sit in horror as it crept along my desk. (I am not a big fan of spiders.) I watched it climb over my phone, up my bulletin board, over the wall, and glide down on its web to the floor. I stooped down and saw it continue climbing over some wires and then, at last, I moved my garbage can over the spider, hoping to trap it. Unfortunately, after I left my desk to ask someone to help me, it disappeared. I have no idea where it went and everyday, I wonder...

Hey, that's me, no? Those are my walkin' shoes.

When you first said "longboard," I thought you meant you'd be learning to surf, and I was going to exclaim with glee since it's on my list of Florida Things. The terrestrial versions are fun, too, though. Especially for when you get back to school, where such things are acceptable. Finally, women on boards are extremely attractive.

you should totally get a longboard! i got one a few years ago just to have another form of transportation, and it's really perfect for those places that are too close to bike to but a little too far to walk to. plus, yeah, dudes freak the fuck out when they see cute chicks on skateboards.







Hi, my name is Amy. Be well, and say hello!
