scribbled via pencil ona Neiman Marcus credit card payment receipt:
I don't really eat at McDonald'sjust because I know there's more better things out there in
Union Square and beyondbut I'm low on $, Blondie's Pizza is renovating [ooh, it's getting BIGGER!!More room!!] and I
don't see any cheap Asianfood unless I really really look but walking 7+ blocks in Financial District,battling
ERROR MSGthe wind and rain with mythankless excuse for an umbrella and thus looking like I've showered infull costume,
I was tired and starved.3/4 a mug of luscious milk teaERROR MSG doesn't suffice my appetite beforeleaving the house to
catch Muni which was horriblydelayed. I exceeded my 12 noon appointment...but turns out all is good.
Will Kristin be on the payrollagain?

ERROR MSGThe people walking up anddown Financial District look alike. Drones dressed in gray or black. Iwas one of them.
Many look anxious, manylook confident ["yeah, I just landed that deal with the pharmecutical companybefore
lunch break, I'm one hotshit!"], and many huff and puff on their Marlboro lights in front of theirbuildings dreading heading back to the office, back into their 9 to 5 workcycles, and there I am with rain speckled glasses, rain-soggy shoes lookingsorry
and pathetic as I walk hurriedlyover puddles, holding on to my umbrella because the wind is pissing meoff and my
sorry long hair that I wishedwas short so it wouldn't blow all over my wet face.
But I'm dry now as I'm seatedsolo amid the hustle and bustle of late-lunch junk food MSG cravings, enjoyingmy Mr. Pibb
cause we all know that MickeyD's does not serve Dr. Pepper. A trip to Sephora for a rejuvinating lip-glossingis all I need
right now.

After I wrote that, I finishedup, walked outside and the rain was gone and the sun was piercing through.
It was still cold and windybut at least the rain wasn't there to further drench everyone outside.
Took Muni back home.

After last night, I concludedthat I love champagne. I'll pick that over black velvets anytime:)
Too bad I couldn't rememberthe one I had at Foreign Cinema [a restaurant that plays internationalfilms in the Mission]. - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - | - |
