Feel so smart, closing a 2am bar! Almost like being young again! #
Right now, miss the roach coach at the crotch, for post-drinking hotdogs. Mmmm. #

OH NOES! the coffee machine at work is busticated :( But $boss steps in and takes us all out to starbucks for some will to live. Yay! #
@smokes70 No fucking kidding! It’s been feeling like it needed to be Friday already since Monday. What a drag this week has been. #

@smokes70 He is just wiping him up. Did you see how pissed McCain was with that “Okay, Joe, here’s your fine – zero” comeback? #
It’s a like a fun guessing game of how high VIX will go! Answer: We know nothing about anything, so: VERY! #

Got my flu shot! I feel all industrious. #
@secabeen Sounds about right! #
Today is payday, aka “401(k) contribution purchase day.” Cheering all day for the dow to tank so we score cheap funds. Feel let down. #
It is worthy of note that I now feel like -450 is just another ordinary day. #
Dow lost over 700! Hurrah! (Why the hell not. At this point all that is left to us is gallows humor, so I might as well enjoy it.) #

Shopped ’til i dropped. Ow. On the bright side, my eyes look *fantastic* #
Disappointed; apparently my last.fm scrobbling of what I listened to all day on my igadget disappeared into the ether. No scrobbles for me! #
