What a day.

Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat... If there was a goose, I don't think I'd eat it. I think of ham as christmas dinner. Or turkey. Preferably ham. Mostly I think of friends and family and lots of cranberry sauce.

Today has been a very interesting day. I went to Johnstown to hang out with a bunch of my friends and play with airsoft guns. We had an excellent time until one of the guys who is 15 and usually acts about 12 decided to lose it (he had been off his meds for almost a week). He lost his temper and decided to walk the 7 miles to his house. He was mad at the world. I tried to talk to him. I thought I could relate...Well, it made for an interesting day. People are interesting. More interesting than Otters.

Rip snortin!

So, it's Monday, I have two tests tomorrow, and an hour now between tutoring and my math class. I should be studying, but no, I am reading some of the dumbest and funniest quotes ever at http://www.overheardinnewyork.com. Check it out. A huge mix of humor, culture shock and just plain shock. Here's a f'rinstance:
Chick: Is that Broadway? I think it is. I can't see.
Burly guy: Yeah. Didn't you put your contacts in?
Chick: No. I haven't bought new ones yet.
Burly guy: Jesus, Jen! You'll buy boobs but you won't buy contacts?
Chick: What's more important: contacts or boobs?

--Union Square

Basically it's a ton of random things people overheard in NY. They also have an "overheard at the beach" and one at the Office. Wow. Funny. Strange. Scary. E(all of the above)
Here's another:
Little boy in bathroom: Oooh... Dad, I love you.
Dad outside stall: I love you, too, buddy, but you don't have to tell me that when you are on the crapper.

--Bathroom, Penn Station
