I hope you have a lovely, cheap weekend! (btw I would sooner eat dirt than pb&j sandwiches. Why do North Americans eat that?? ;-)) hehe I can empathise with you today -just over $4 in my account at the moment….at least my Monday comes around before yours does :-) but in the meantime I think we are going to be eating out of our freezer for the next 2 days!

When I was making a huge salary and "had it all," I was miserable--not because of the money, though. Now, I have no money again, no salary, and some massive debts for the store and I'm still miserable about money. Ergo, it's not the money, it's me. (I need one of those PB&J's -- sorry, Pipstar.)

While walking down the steps to the front row of the box I tripped, went flying down the rest of the steps. In my attempt to not hit the (what looked to me) flimsy plexiglass wall in front of me turned and went flying down an aisle. I ended up hitting the wall between our box and the Whalers box and all these men were now staring at me as if I was from Mars or something. Not one of my all time great moments. I can definately sympathize. Those moments are the worst…a company I used to work for had a sky box for the local Harford Whalers hockey team that was right next to the Whalers sky box.

Just yesterday, wearing the cutest stiletto-sandals that I own, I managed to get the heel completely implanted in a grate on a busy-busy Georgetown sidewalk. I totally fell over in public. Just. Fell. Over. And then, could not get my heel out of the grate. Had to take my foot out of the shoe and tug-tug hard with my hands. Gah. How embarassing. Ah well, that which does not kill us makes us stronger. Right?!? Jess, I *totally* sympathize with you.

Funny image of you on the subway, flailing into people. At least you were apologetic. YAY! that the project is to the printer. And boy do I feel your pain about payday...we're going to have to scrounge up some change to pay for gas to N'awlins.. Tee hee. Funny image of you on the subway, flailing into people.

Your day sounds like something _I_ would have. Me, ms. Clutzy herself. That's why my fiance' always walks so close to me, he figures if I start to flail he's better off close where he can grab the offending part and keep it from doing damage. Sortof like walking really close to a horse so that if he kicks he hasn't got time to get any OMPH behind it. Glad I'm not the only one who often ends up sitting in stranger's laps. Oh Geeze.
