Silly Sow and car tow

Silly Sow and car tow

06/06/2002>09:04 pm

My car just got towed.

ARGGHHHHH!!!!

I just got to eye-ball's place, and drove around the neighborhood at least 6 times, looking for a parking spot. Couldn't find one, so I decided I'd get on the sidewalk, and come down in half an hour to look again.

I got into eye-ball's apartment, and decided to take a shower. As I was getting nekkid, I heard my alarm go off. I quickly got dressed and ran downstairs, but by the time I got there the evil tow-truck was way down the street.

I'm not even that angry, I'm used to it. When I get to the towing lot to reclaim my car the employees there yell "Periscopeboy" like for Norm on Cheers. I smile back and pretend I'm happy to see these dregs of humanity, secretly plotting my revenge.

Who am I kidding, I'm pissed. Fucking 2 days' salary down the drain, so that the stupid mayor can put up some more ugly sculptures of dolphins around this city.

I wish somebody would steal that piece of crap car already so that I can live the good life on the insurance money.

The problem with this country, besides the buses blowing up (another one yesterday), is that the car thieves are stealing every car except mine. And also, it's harder for them to get here now because of the curfews in the occupied territories. I wish there was peace already so that the car thieves could come here freely and steal my car.

No updates on the Toilet Paper Fiend. I've decided it's easier to just go to another washroom I've found than to stalk people as they're walking into the cubicle, while giving them the evil eye.

Work was a bitch today.

Everybody and their sister came to me today to do some typing for them.

They've all got secretaries in their own departments, but I guess word of SuperTemp's amazing typing abilities has spread far and wide.

The upside of this is that it's nice to be appreciated. The downside is that it involves a lot of work. Towards the end of the day I couldn't see straight from staring at the screen for so long. I got real bitchy and snapped at some people, but it's ok because it was mental snapping only. I try not to talk to anybody, just keep a silly grin on my face and nod at whatever they say.

There's this really silly girl working with me. She's just, well, dumb.

She comes into the office, and for the first hour of the day proceeds to go through her e-mails. This girl gets a shitload of crap in her mail, but she likes it, and asks people to send it to her.

You know the stuff I'm talking about. Those "funny" pictures and jokes everybody really liked in the stone age when the internet was something new, but that you've asked everybody to stop sending you.

This girl sits there and laughs her ass off at those lame jokes.

That's ok with me. Only problem is that she insists on sharing them with me, and then I'm forced to pretend laugh because I'm not going to tell her she's got the dumbest sense of humor in the country.

Silly Sow: Oh my god, this is hillarious. You've got to see this.

Periscopeboy: Hardy freekin har, a picture of a baby giving the finger. No more please, I'm going to lose control of my bladder.

I now realize why "Israel's lamest home videos" is still the most popular TV show here. It's because morons like her will never tire of seeing cats fall off of television sets.

The other day Silly Sow rode in the same ride as me. When she went to open the door to get into the van, she couldn't find the door handle, and stood there for a minute complaining out loud that the door handle was missing.

IT'S A FUCKING VAN, LADY. THERE'S ONLY ONE SLIDING DOOR, AND IT'S ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE VAN. IT WAS THERE YESTERDAY WHEN YOU GOT IN THE VAN. SO WHY , IN THE NAME OF EVERYTHING THAT'S HOLY,DO YOU THINK IT MOVED TO THE LEFT HAND SIDE TODAY?

See what I have to deal with on a daily basis?

Saw Austin Powers II on DVD at a friend's place last night. It had it's funny parts, but it's just a crappy sequel, basically.

And Heather Graham can't act.

"Divine Secrets..." is coming out on film soon. I'm sorta looking forward to seeing it, but I know it will pale in comparison to the book. Just like "The Shipping News" and "Cider House Rules" did.

Went to the dental hygienist yesterday.

Ouch

Must get a haircut soon.

This weekend I'm helping eye-ball out with her weekend renovation project - The balcony.

And I also need to go pick up the periscopemobile.

Join my notify list, and then you'll be the first to know if I update this sucker.

periscopeboy, signing off
