Tourists of the Day: We were on the Metro. I noticed the hair first. This woman was 60-something years old, 5 feet tall, and her white hair added about 6 inches with a pouf in front. She and another woman, who could have been her sister, had almost-as-large hair, and they both wore identical denim dresses and carried Smithsonian shopping bags. Their husbands (?) both wore pastel plaid shirts, and one had a camera hung around his neck, the boxy kind with a big lens. The Metro was lurching around as usual, and they were all standing up holding on to the poles. The woman with 6-inch hair swung toward and away from the pole jerkily, exaggerating how everyone was getting knocked around. The husbands grinned at her.

I'm high on Sudafed Severe Cold Formula today. (Yeah, I have no tolerance for chemical substances.) It's sort of fun... I feel all groovy and decongested.

Now hear this. When I grow up I need to work in a cluttered, colorful place full of conversation. I can't be alone in a gray box all day. And it has to be a laid-back place. Sometimes I just sit back and stare into nothing, and I must work in a place where that's acceptable. It also must be acceptable to: Call my mom, munch on Reese's Pieces constantly, listen to music (with headphones) and wear sneakers. I must also be paid enough to cover $250 a month in student loan payments. That is all.

Update: Went to Boston this weekend... more later. Somehow I wound up sick. I want to be in bed right now. Instead I'm at work. Where the air conditioning is broken and it's 95 degrees. Yay. Yay for that.
