11 December 2007 : a friendly note
dear the guy who stole my license plate on the only friday night in history that my driver's license was expired, thus rendering me incapable of driving anywhere during my two days off:
i will (probably, never) find you.
and then i will cut your balls off and make you eat them.
that should make up for the bmv's 10$ replacement fee and the four bucks for new hardware, and the fact that i spent my entire weekend in my apartment.
love,
lindsay

02 December 2007 : dark ages
i am turning 25 in less than two hours. historically, i think this has been considered a great achievement.
at 25, i have dropped out of graduate school to serve overpriced coffee to morning commuters and fry various beer battered things for drunken football fans.
my life has taken a turn for the ancient. recently, i learned that i am expected to begin wearing compression hose should i desire to relieve the near constant pain in my formerly-clotted leg.
yesterday, while working a 15 hour day at various jobs, i managed to contract what appears to be carpal tunnel in one day.
i just wanted you to know those little factoids along with the following two:
my mother is graciously replacing the 13 inch television i've had for nine years as a christmas gift. today i told her in no uncertain terms not to buy me an hd capable television regardless of the 2009 switchover, as my dvd and cd habits in no way require such newfangled haberdashery (it's been a good three years since i've watched actual television in my own home, and even then only because i lived with luke and had free cable).
i have no internet access because my current financial situation has reduced me to waiting for there to be wireless access in my building (the deadline keeps getting pushed back).
diagnosis: i'm either 85, or i actually live in 1736. my (comforting) new doctor would likely agree.
