everyday glory March 13th, 2004Friday
It was an all-around great day.
There have been far too few of those, lately. I like the change of pace.
I had a good time with the usual suspects at coffee tonight. I managed to get some decent drawing time in, too. And, at the behest of

You know where.
You know when.- This afternoon, I had to pick up some shipping corners for some items that we were sending out. I got to the supplier and placed my order. The telephone rang, someone answered it and told another of the clerks that it was for him. He took the call; when he was done, the lady who had answered the call asked “Was it Baldy?” But she had her back to where I was standing. Ah, blessed opportunity! I waited a few seconds…
Me: Did… you just ask if that was ‘Baldy?’
Woman: *turns around* *turns red* Well, I don’t know his name. He came in a few days ago and he’s been calling about getting a job ever since.
Me: So… the next time I come in here are you going to say “Oh, it’s the other bald guy?”
Woman: *reddened a little more, but laughing*I found the whole thing amusing. I should stop in there Monday just to say “The other bald guy is back…”
- Gershwin. Rhapsody in Blue. ‘Nuff said.
- Dragonlance Chronicles. *nod*
- Words. Words. Static. *kzzzzzzktztkztktkzzzz*

Quote of the Day
Gleaned from Slashdot:
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if real life supported <Control-Z>?
(For the less technically-inclined: <Control-Z> is the keyboard shortcut for “Undo.”)
Namaste.
