200?

Well, so we're rapidly approaching comment #200, I'm not going to say how soon, but you know. you'll win uhh, i dono. a carpet steam cleaning discount coupon (hey, it was on my desk) the next time i see you if you get it.

happy birthday to sarah... well unbirthday. whatever.

so i went to the damn career thing. it was annoying. i didn't talk to eli lilly, who was the only remotely interesting company, i don't even remember seeing them. i traded jody (tiime's communication director) a phillips medical can cozy because she wanted one, she offered to find me a job in return, i think that's a fair deal. i told her if she found me a job, i'd get her lots of can cozys.

i wore my crappy dress shoes, which caused me to get a blister on my ankle. damnit. i need a job, so i can decide what kind of shoes i need, and then get ones that cost more then $10 and destroy my feet. (maybe they were $20, bear with me)

umm, yeah. played pool with mitch, val and mike leake (said lake, don't ask me. i know it looks like leaky) uneventful. mike's only interesting as he is exactly the same MB type as me (ISTJ for those of you who forgot) we also had the same boing sneakers over the summer, but then i switched to trendy new balances. I played/shot horribly. and the beer of the month at jillians was MGD, which wasn't especially exciting. i was much happier when it was killians. at least its a nice deal that they always have a beer for $2

umm. so yeah, i'll prewarn i may be late on the updates due to rochesterian difficulties. mostly i don't feel inclined to bring the ibook, so i'll have to update as time allows.

so yeah, i didn't drink 3 or 4 cans because i only had 2, and mickey's just isn't chuggable, somehow it lends itself to sipping, at least in my view, which is sorta odd. i think my tolerance for large quantities of beer has gone down, i really just sorta go eh, after like 2 pints, at which point i barely notice i've drank any. of course my wine tolerance has gone higher, i guess this is more useful. anyway, cheetos aren't pothead food as much as doritos. and yeah, tylenol does cause liver damage when combined with alcohol, however i used it in the generic sense of something analgesic. (look that word up if you don't know what it means)

not much else to report. i had mitch call lauren, who didn't go to wegs when she was in rochester, (i'm still offended by that) and ask what kind of pocki she wanted, oddly, she said strawberry or coconut. i would have guessed chocolate, but she said chocolate is good too. we'll see what is available. and ahem, if you don;t know what something is, ask. or look it up. i generally won't use a term you'll look really stupid for not knowing. no sense in spending 2 weeks wondering what a tizio is, or if you should know who leake is.

top restaurant in rochester named after someone:
1. Jay's
2. Wendy's
3. Dib's
4. Denny's
5. Nick's
6. Weg's (Tastings)

So i think i've grown accustomed to judging places by food. rochester's a 4 year blur, but i kept track of places to eat. how odd. (i'm sure i've forgotten some places named after people, but eh, its late). Anyone who hasn't been to all of them (I haven't myself, but I think only TOWM knows that) can feel free to guess based on whatever method. It'll be funny I'm sure.

On the subject of Wendy's, did you know that when Honda was going to build a plant in OH, the govenor of OH had to 'impress' them for dinner, so he took the executives to one of the original wendys in columbus. i guess it worked. (when you drive through columbus it says home of wendy's, i guess they're proud... like worcester and goddard, or fishkill and well, no one... fishkill tire? eh.)

Maybe you should invest in quality dress shoes that don't hurt your feet anyway. One would think that good dress shoes are useful reguardless of your career choice. I mean, they aren't just for work: hot dates, concerts, weddings, funerals, interviews, temple holidays... And its not like your feet are going to grow much anymore. Its like your Bean boots - pay through the nose for excellent footwear that you'll like wearing and want to keep around for 5 years.

The best thing about Fiskill used to be the Brinkerhoff playground. But then they took it down because it was rotting and a safety hazard (kids these days are such wimps!) So I suppose that would make Walmart and its being open 24 hours the best thing about Fiskkill.
