we on the train

We on the train. I am riding in luggage. What is that? I feel that I should get a nice big seat with leather and everything. We got checked for ID but no free drinks. Train travel isn't what it used to be.

Next time, we take the limo or the heli. Perhaps the yacht.

P.S. Fish says hi.

Rough morning

So I woke up this morning a little late but not too late. I went to go shower but the bathroom door was closed and I heard water running. I figured my roomate's girl of the week was in the shower.

About 20 minutes pass, and I am getting kinda anxious. My roomate walks out of his room.
Me- "Is Liz Here?"
Roomate - "Yes"
Me - "She is taking like 40 minutes in the shower"
Roomate - "No, she's not. she is still in bed."
Me - "WTF.. the water has been running for the past half hour"
Roomate - "Did you see if the light was on."

Well.. it turns out the water in the toilet was just running (not overflowing). The handle has been staying in the flush position. And to think I could have made it to work on time.

2. Lack of bread coming up.. passover. endless seder at the parent's freinds.. dreading this.
3. Happy birthday sam
4. softball season - i love it.
5. basketball season - way too much to play on two teams.. might be why I am sick.
6. laundry.. that stuff piles up fast

SpongeBob Squarepants tissues

Yesterday, my roommate bought a box of tissues. Not just any tissues but a box of tissues that had spongebob squarepants on them. When he got home, he opened up the box of tissues and was surprised to find that the tissues inside were just plain tissues. He said that he was expected designs on them or prints with spongebob. I think that is just moronic. Just because something is on the cover or container does not mean that the inside product is different.

If this were the case, then each box of wheaties would have to have a little people inside. Can you imagine? You get a box that has keri strug on them and inside there would be lots of mini kerri strug's printed on the flakes. Little kerri strug - look, they all have broken ankles, or is it legs.

This brings up the question - do people really buy products because of an endorsement on the box? In the case of my roommate, the answer is yes.

How did I miss this? Oh yeah, I was on a cruise.

He was one of my favorite law and order actors and I knew a few friends who lived in the same building as him.
