So yesterday I stayed at work 'till (get this)11.30p.

Why was I there until 11.30p? Was I working on this page? Was I reading other on-line diaries? Was I making free long-distance phone calls?

No, no, and NO!

I was WORKING!!!

I was voiding those goddamn vouchers, trying to fix the mistake I made Monday. And around 10.15p I started to feel so terribly sleepy, like it was 4a or something. And I was wondering why, and all of a sudden I started to get that feeling.

You know that feeling, don't you? That little ache at the back of your throat right where it meets your nose. That "when I wake up in the morning I'm gonna be SICK" feeling.

And I can't even take the day off because, A. I took a day off last week for my time, and B. because I still have a ton of work to do.

Blech.

I was in the East Village last week and I thought I'd stop at the Astor Riviera, one of my old NYU stomping grounds, and I turned the corner, and instead of the Astor Riviera, my Astor Riviera, it was a STARBUCKS!!!
And right across the street was a big shiny K-MART!!!

What the hell are those horrors doing in the East Village?

I practically vomited.

Many of you probably know this, but Sage of Coffee Shakes fame appears to have packed up her site and disappeared.

She sent out an e-mail to her notify list yesterday saying how she had been getting alot of mean e-mails lately and they were really upsetting her. Now, I've discussed this weird phenomenon before of people feeling the need to write ugly things to on-line diarists, but if the bastards make Sage go away, I'll be really pissed.

I don't know what I would do if it was me getting them--I do know that my site wouldn't go anywhere, because I'm a contrary type. It would certainly upset me, but I think (hope) that I would retain a sense of perspective considering all of the nice mail I have received. But Sage is a delicate flower (and that's not me being snotty, she really is!) with strong opinions and low self-esteem (a dangerous combination) and she takes people's opinions too much to heart and is always hearing innocuous comments as vicious criticisms, so all of this meanness was probably too much to take.

I hope she realizes that many more people love her than hate her.

I swan, trying to get my radio station to come in clearly at work is like working with plutonium.

One little slip, and...disaster!
