Well the computer is still on the fritz and once again this comes through courtesy of the good graces of Bill. Haven’t heard from Rand, so I’m hesitant to go into action myself, especially if it’s something that could be easily remedied. Had to go to work earlier than usual today, which wasn’t so bad, except for the fact that that Juan came over with a six pack of Heineken. No regrets, I only had two of those followed by two pints of Guinness.

Like I said, no regrets. Watched the Daily Show but when John McCain came on I nearly lost consciousness along with Juan which was the signal that it was time for him to go home and time for me to go to bed. I slept the sleep of the dead and had some vaguely memorable dreams, but that was hours ago and the dreams didn’t turn out to be so memorable after all.

I walked to the Path, picking up some bananas from Plantain Man who looked HOT wearing a skin tight t shirt and sporting wood. Is it me? Do I do this to him? It is flattering if I am the cause. Or maybe he’s popping pseudo Viagra, while drinking ginseng with a fistful of bottles. Nah, I’ll take credit for his hardened condition.

There was a major event going on in the office today, 25 guests expected hence my going in earlier than usual. Major soft drinkers were expected and they demand only the finest quality root beer so it was off to whatever markets there were in the neighborhood to purchase as many six packs of soda as I could. I had to do something similar yesterday and found that the shelves weren’t restocked so I actually had to hike around the west Village.

It wasn’t so bad. The food that I ordered for this event had come in on time and Felicia who was preparing the display slipped me an extra turkey sandwich. Things have been good between Felicia and I. She’s been laughing at my jokes and comments and that’s a good thing. We’ve been making a pretty good team. She’s making an effort to reach out and I admit I’ve been meeting her halfway. Not really eyeing the door anymore and the foibles of the inconsiderate have been beneath my notice.

Don’t speak to me and I won’t speak to you. It’s easy this type of ignorance. Not so taxing. I do have some favorite people, nice people. I just focus and lavish my attention on them.

The turkey sandwich wasn’t sitting well with me though. I was still able to get through the day, but that sandwich seemed to be having difficulty getting through me. Some abdominal discomfort, but I managed. I did leave a little bit early because of the discomfort and made a beeline for the Path train, where I nearly yawned in a Technicolor fashion. It was hot and crowded and that did not make for a relaxing ride home.

I feel a bit warm and that’s not because of the weather. I hope I’m not getting sick. Cross your fingers.
