Thanks, yes.
Jul. 23rd, 2004 03:21 amI am home. I am alive. No, he was not an axe murderer, nor a psycho, and all is well. Quite well. There is no 55-gallon-drum of hydrochloric acid, no shallow grave-- though, coindicentally, for some STUPID reason I decided (after hearing a track from the "Monster" soundtrack on the way home), to research serial killers. Talk about a buzz-killer. Aside from that ill-considered bit of memory-jogging unpleasantness (I was a short, brunette, female college student in Florida during the gruesome Gainesville murders), all is spiffy. I had a good evening, good salad, good pizza, good tea, and good conversation. Seems fairly well hereabouts.
Except my feet-- brand-new shoes I bought this afternoon. HEELS, no less. What was I thinking? Well, aside from the fact that they're fabulous and they were only $12.99 at Payless.
Most bizarre part of the evening? Strolling into Rittenhouse Square after dinner, I spotted a bright yellow something on the ground. Unbelieving, I reached down and picked it up to discover it's a LIVESTRONG band from the Lance Armstrong Foundation. How do I know this? Because I spent quite some time on the Lance Armstrong Foundation site just last night and read all about them. I had neither heard of nor seen them before. Now I have one on my wrist. It is, of course, the bright yellow of the Tour's yellow jersey.
Go look. http://www.laf.org/
I may buy more of them when they're off backorder. Anyone want one? I'm the daughter, niece, and friend of both cancer survivors and victims, and a cycling fan-- this seems pretty natural to me.
And does anyone know who might be found at 732.264.2824? I have a message on my cell to call that number, but no name attatched.
I am done rambling. A bit of light reading to scrub my brain for sleep-- tomorrow's a busy day.

You could wind up in Holland or something.
I'm glad you are not soaking in a vat of hydrochloric acid. That would be hell on your hair.
