Had lunch with a friend, after which he had a phone job interview scheduled. When I got home from work I was curious how it went, so I texted him.

Me: How'd the interview go.

Friend: He got into a car accident, so it didn't

[I have now assumed that his girlfriend has possession of his phone and is responding for him]

Me: WTF? Really?

[no response]

Me: We had lunch a block and a half from work, what happened? And is he okay

the Girlfriend: Don't know details, his admin was just told to cancel all his meetings, she doesn't know any more.

Me: So you haven't talked to him yet?

[no response - now I'm wracking my brain trying to piece together why she has his phone but doesn't know details, hasn't talked to him, and isn't saying whether he's okay.]

Me: Well, let me know when you know more, and if there's any way we can help

Girlfriend: Oh, no worries. He's trying to reschedule. Hope the dude's okay

[err, that's a weird thing for the girlfriend to say.]

Me: Wait, who is this?

Girlfriend?: Who's what? The dude I had the interview with?

..............

Oooooooooooh! The "he" who had an accident was... and the whole time it wasn't...

I graduated high school with a 4.3 GPA you know.

I came to work early.

I have to stop doing that. It makes the entire day seem longer.

This actually happened a couple of days ago, but I forgot to post it.

I usually buy my breakfast and eat it on the way into the office, throwing away the trash in the parking structure when I get to the office.

On this particular morning, I had a few things in my hands when I got out of the car: the bag of breakfast trash, my coffee cup, an old newspaper I was throwing away, and my phone. As usual I went to the trash can to throw away the old newspaper and the bag of trash from breakfast.

Thankfully there wasn't anything yucky in the trash can when I had to dig for my phone.

Because I don't spend enough time at work already...

I just spent 20 minutes researching and writing an email, only to discover that I already addressed the problem two effing weeks ago.

I think it is time for me to go home.

I took €uroMeinke down to Georgetown. I couldn't find a bar for a pre-dinner cocktail to save my life.

In Georgetown.

That's like not being able to spot a stroller in Disneyland.

Epic fail.

I don't think so. He was very stoic.
