i can't wait to retire.

when i do i can *finally* start my letter writing campaigns in earnest.

i have so many things to complain about. examples from the last twenty four hours or so include:

the cafe closest to my parent's house that charges $18 for a 'caesar salad', which doesn't even contain any cos lettuce and is mini-sized.

buses! don't even get me started on this one. i waited well over half an hour for a bus tonight. i listened to 12 songs on my ipod nano - you do the math. and there are three buses that go from outside my work to my house every fifteen minutes. in theory. to add insult to injury seven number 2 buses went past. SEVEN. and it was raining. when i finally got on a bus i took a photo on my cellphone to mark the occassion.

peter jackson for making epic blockbusters instead of music videos. i found out jessica has seen R Kelly. that's right, R Kelly... he who sees nothing wrong... with a little bump 'n' grind and has recently been trapped in the closet. The last celebrities i remember seeing* were the cast of lord of the rings c. 2002 (??) when we were at the same restaurant as them. while i'd love to see orlando again (reow) i could take or leave, but mostly leave, the others.

*just remembered i saw ivana trump once in harrods. and hung out with john kerry in boston. but i'd trade all of this for running into R Kelly. so peter jackson still has a lot to answer for.

dear jessica,
well, *practically*. homeperm was visiting me in boston pre-election and we just happened to be passing (or should that be "avidly loitering") directly in front of john's house in beacon hill. suddenly we noticed john's hair bobbing around in the air somewhere near john's door, attached to john's head, which was speaking words in farewell to john's lunch guests. so homeperm whipped out her camera and took a snap of me posing nonchalantly in the foreground, with john's hair waving around in the background. extreme excitement all round. homeperm and i felt weak with the glory of democracy and had to have a cup of tea down the road to recover.
yrs,
