phone broken. i suck.
I fell off the sidewalk. Really. I’m walking along after dropping off the rental videos, talking to Jess, got distracted by the perfectly placed sweater and handkerchief spread neatly beside the entrance to an apartment building….BAM!
Not 20 feet from my own door I turned my ankle, slid off the side of the sidewalk, dropped my phone (which busted into about a thousand pieces), bruised my knee and cut my palm. Directly in front of a pretty cute guy who happened to be walking past, who immediately stopped to help me pick up the pieces and offer me his phone to make a call. How sweet.
But seriously, my phone is in a thousand pieces. It’ll turn on, but the whole top is disconnected from the bottom, so that doesn’t help at all. Took out my sim card. Hopefully all of my numbers are saved to it. Please let my phone numbers be saved to it. Going tomorrow to buy a new phone.
so, maybe it’s the time to buy an iPhone?

Her face is a map of the world
Is a map of the world
You can see she’s a beautiful girl
She’s a beautiful girl
Everything around her is a silver pool of light
People who surround her feel the benefit of it
It makes you calm
She holds you captivated in her palm
Suddenly I see
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see
Why the hell it means so much to me
And I feel like walking the world
Like walking the world
And you can hear she’s a beautiful girl
She’s a beautiful girl
She fills up every corner like she’s born in black and white
Makes you feel warmer when you’re trying to remember
What you heard
She likes to leave you hanging on a word
Suddenly I see
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see
Why the hell it means so much to me
And she’s taller than most
And she’s looking at me
I can see her eyes looking from a page in a magazine
She makes me feel like I could be a tower
Big strong tower
She got the power to be
The power to give
The power to see
Suddenly I see
This is what I wanna be
Suddenly I see
Why the hell it means so much to me

I fell asleep last night after sneezing, coughing and sniffling my way through a box of tissues and Casino Royale. This morning (ahem, this afternoon I mean) I woke up with a raging cold. Like, full on, nose-blowing, hacking, spitting GROSS COLD.
After a shower, without putting on make up or even attempting to cover up the zit THE SIZE OF WYOMING on my chin, I went to my favourite Russian Pharmacy up the road a bit (I like them because they love it that I speak tiny bits of russian to them!) to get some DayQuil. On that same side of the road, there is a deli, a medical supply store, a Dunkin Donuts and a real estate office. As I’m on the corner, passing the real estate office, some guy walks out and says “Excuse me, but do you have a cigarette?” I half-turn and say “No, I’m sorry, but I quit smoking.” I flash a quick half-smile and start to head across the street.
“That’s okay,” he says, as he steps beside me “I don’t actually smoke, either, I just wanted an excuse to talk to you.” I laugh, because that was kind of funny. He walks with me another block and I head into my corner bodega to get some water – girlfriend needs some DayQuil in her face, STAT. He’s chatting away, asking me how I like the area, etc. Then he says – and I love this, considering (as mentioned above) I LOOK LIKE SHIT – “You’re beautiful, I’d love to go out with you sometime, can I get your number?”
“That’s unbelievably sweet, but I’m married. Thank you, though!” He says the usual, he’s lucky, blah blah blah and exits. The guy behind the counter and I make eye contact and exchange a smile. That was pretty ballsy of him, I admit. But I’m pretty darn happy with what I’ve got, thank you very much.
