cuttin' and clinton

eventful day to say the least. let's begin with me cutting a chunk out of my thumb with an x-acto at work. we were on deadline (which was moved up a day and the comp had to make a flight to London within hours), and i was rushing, and sliced the side of my thumb right off. didn't even feel it, really, just saw the fleshy piece tumble and the blood pool. like a stupid intern scared of getting reprimanded, i bandaged quickly, finished the job, and then realized that i had a "serious, serious injury," as Rain Man would say. my co-workers came over, cringed, and insisted that i be escorted to the emergency room, so i hopped a cab, and went to the clinic. no stiches, just a miracle gel foam that should solve my problems... except for the small fact that i will have a deformed thumb. it's character.

as i was walking home after work (got out early, at 6:30pm, which is actually "on time"), i stumbled upon a hillary clinton congregation out side the David Letterman show studio. I peered around a bit, being a snoop lookin' for the scoop. found out she would be on the show, and would be around afterwards to talk with us. so i stuck around a bit. befreinded a stage manager for a broadway show, the homecoming, and had some pretty interesting conversation, and I obviously suffered from a lack of political knowledge. i got yelled at by the cops, to get off the barricades, but it was the only way i could see, so like all the others, i just ignored it. got a pretty good view of hillary, but no handshake, because I was a few rows too far back. new yorkers vote tomorrow along with 21 other states. we will see who prevails...

a fight broke out in the grocery store today, as i was buying my mozz and vitamin water (obvious essentials), over the price of a newspaper. what are we coming to.

check out the band "the weepies." a new addiction...
