it's 11:47pm EST

i just spent entirely too much time trying to come up with a blog name that wasn't already taken. i proceeded to try every random thought that popped into my head, which is how i ended up with "my elbows hurt". they really do hurt at this moment because i'm lying on the floor in colleen's bedroom on my laptop, and my elbows are resting on some really shittie carpet that seems to be made out of recycled gravel.

i skipped work today. i'm getting pretty good at my pretending-to-be-sick voice. in the past i would always e-mail my boss to tell him i wouldn't be in, but i figured a little wheezing sound effect would be much more convincing. wheezy with an H.

one-way tickets to boston are $76. today at starbucks i looked to my right and saw a u-haul going down the road with a huge 'massachusetts' advertisement on its side. starbucks is definitely no cafe pamplona.

i wish i could develop the balls to quit my job. the people really like me. and after two years, they need me. they're so helpless on their own. i keep fantasizing about what i will say when i take over the intercom that final day and bid everyone adieu.

oh, life.
