Miscellaneous

Geezers be stylin’: So I’ve been noticing how cool old men are nowadays. The black frame glasses, the sweater vests, those little golfer caps …
What economy? So Denise and I tallied up our friends the other day, trying to think of some who are A.) employed, B.) employed full-time and C.) employed full-time in the field in which they received a college diploma. We came up with four people. Four!! And we know tons of people. What’s up with this? Nearly everyone we know is barely scraping by. And we’re talking smart people. Capable people. College-educated people with massive debt, and nobody’s finding work. That’s some fucked-up stuff right there.
Indescribable joy: Stop the presses! There’s a BP out White Marsh way that actually carries Kamel Red Lights. I’m in heaven. I’m going to smoke myself stupid. I bought the last two packs they had.
Sesame Street was just a dream: So as much as I want to move downtown, I just don’t think I have the balls for it. I’m too acclimated to two-way streets and ample parking. Let me tell you, I’m still reeling from this thought.

Update: A recount was commissioned, and it turns out I know seven people who are employed full-time in the field in which they studied: Iain, Brandi, Brandon, Vince, Jen, Jeffy and Dani.
