If I were less hung over I would perhaps be capable of crafting a narrative involving the following:

While I’m determined not to let this space slip-slide into frequent posts of seemingly random, unrelated and somewhat mundane thoughts, today I can’t help myself, because I feel like total ass. So here they are, the thoughts running through my head right now.
1. I have read the word “quotidian” twice today, in two separate passages written by two different people and in two totally different contexts. I find that a bit odd.
2. I forgot Administrative Professionals Day. I looked like a total dick when I asked the lady who sits next to the assistant for part of my group what all the flowers were on the lady’s desk for. Y’know… The flowers from yesterday. Shit. I’m an asshole.
3. Are beets really anyone’s favorite food? I feel like they’re just sort of there. The salad bar I eat lunch at has been on a beet kick lately and I keep winding up eating some sort of salad involving beets over the past few days
4. When you go to bed a bit after 7:00 a.m. fairly drunk, it’s reasonable to expect that you might sleep through your alarm and wake up at 9:40 a.m. Though it’s likely not a good idea to broadcast this at work, even if you do only take 31 minutes to shower, grab a train and show up.
5. Follow up on the bartender from a few weeks back. I rolled up into her bar last night and at first she played it off like she’d remembered seeing me. Then I flipped her shit about calling me an asshole and knocking customers over. She took it pretty well and we had a laugh. Then she kept buying me drinks, which, in retrospect, might have been some way of getting me back. Hm.
6. I seem to have misplaced something in the neighborhood of $50 to $150 in the time that has elapsed since last night at about 11:00. Perhaps it’s in whatever pants I wore last night. Why can I never find my pants?
7. How the hell does this work?
8. I got to use an umlaut today, which was pretty cool.
Carry on…
