Is it like a 1920s style death ray? ---

Next day: [ul] [li]Read SBMB and mail[/li][li]Decided to go for lunch and groceries, but the bus was half an hour past its 15-minute schedule - I could have walked. Had a nice chat with a couple of people in the crowd that accumulated.[/li][li]Arrived at the New West Quay and had some of Flavia’s wonderful pork adobo, and a great butter tart she threw in. It’s nice being a regular![/li][li]Snapped some pictures of a busker playing in front of the tugs that moor at the Quay, and a few shots of the tugs going to work.[/li][li]Bought some of the groceries I had intended, but forgot a couple of things.[/li][li]Talked to my sweetie on the phone. I wish the INS would hurry up![/li][/ul] ---

- My girlfriend left town for the weekend, and we had only seen each other once or twice this week. Her birthday is this weekend, and I planned to take her out somewhere nice to eat once she came back–turns out I can’t for at least a week or so because of my financial situation (see below) - Woke up with a sinus cold - Ran out of tissues - Couldn’t afford to buy more (I currently have 21 cents and a meal plan to my name). Cold 1, fetus 0. - Have no Sudafed or similar druggery - Couldn’t afford to buy any (see above). Cold 2, fetus 0. - Went to hallmate’s room to ask if he had any Sudafed, and was told he did not. At a passing glance I saw some Sudafed plainly displayed in his closet. Decided not to be pushy, and left. Strike 3, I’m out. ---

[ul] [li]Woke up right before 3:00pm[/li][li]Went to work, where my shift was at 6:00pm[/li][li]Was late 10 minutes[/li][li]Told two coworkers about how rudely a girl at work treats me[/li][li]Went home at 9:30pm[/li][li]Bought R. Kelly’s greatest hits CD and Janet Jackson’s new music compilation online (at fantastic prices and free shipping)[/li][li]Am still awake at 5:00am[/li][/ul] I’m so boring. The highlight of my day was my yapping about a girl behind her back. She really is a fake, condescending bitch though. 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-happened-to-you-today/265581.md?page=3)
