*my fav zing cohort and i rode up on 83 grand and commenced with the issue 21 distribution. our epic journey of three blocks turned to an even more epic SIX WHOLE BLOCKS when lispenard got all crowdy...side bar - my cohort was born on lispenard! luckily though, it was only a couple trips and the zing tahoe was again put in the zing garage. props to the team work yalls!

*all was well until the PO crushed our distribution dreams...something about dubya and retardation...its almost like goverment institutions are designed to be inefficient and annoying. shame on you canal PO...shame on you. no shame for my intern cohort and zings fearless leader who stood at the PO for hours on end making sure the masses get their zing! more props yalls.

*so the above photo pretty much approximates the size of an apartment i was going to settle for...yet magically my deposit of cash was no good. SCREW YALLS. its cool though...cause im rolling up on brooklyn for my second tour of bushwick, and i could fit like 8 of those midget homes in my new apt. lookout for the Bushwick Reunion Tour 2008 party invites in the next couple weeks.

Icky-gross day. Walked to work in the rain. I need to invest in an umbrella.
Sorted envelopes.
Boxes and boxes of magazines + transferring them from upstairs to the street = no gym tonight. Yay.
There are a TON of colleges/universities in NYC/LA/Denver/Austin/Chicago.

Long week. Very tired.
New discoveries: packaging peanuts dissolve in water; A Starbucks latte is $5...waaay overpriced; Duct tape doesn't actually hold the universe together (much to my dismay); Indiana Jones is probably the most awesome person ever; hummus and mustard make an excellent combination; you can indeed overdose on vitamin c; a hemidemisemiquaver is a 64th note.

The best (and most productive) way to pass time: freerice

Fourth Week Pantsplitting

* okay y'alls, maybe not a total pantsplitter, but ive been feeling like a jerk because my zipper fly is always falling down and im getting nasty looks from the ladies...and hot leers from the gents!

*a cohort and i were beating the mailing pile into submission, getting ready to send out our little zing's across the globe. thank heavens for sticker stamps, i cannot imagine the hallucinations that would have been induced by the endless licking of stamp adhesive....hmm...then again...

*inferno! zing had a two minute fire drill today because the building next store was actually freaking ablaze. wait.....! hot new term, take a note webster...CRAZE ABLAZE! it was cool though cause i brought my croissant and coffee, so i was set in case things went sour quick. luckily thanks to our boys in black (and fluoro yellow) the conflagration was quickly taken care of, and all is well at grand & wooster again.

*today in history: russian people embrace the mcfatty ideal
the first mcdonalds in the then soviet union opened today, 18 years ago, in moscow. 30,000 people got their cabbage pie on (ummm...?), discovered something called customer service, and a big pile of processed crap called a beeg mak. delicious!

*zing office of continuing education - monday i started norwegian class, or norsk! wish me luck. heres a lil sample, JEG HETER ANONYMOUS INTERN. any guesses?

aujourd'hui::::::

I am an envelope labeling-packing machine.
Efficiency is a game.
And I have won.
Rock on.

Also, I would like to publicly declare my love to all those people out there who respond to emails I've sent them within an hour after I've sent them.
Mad love.

The Dubai Art Fair is now on my things-to-go-to-or-do-before-I'm-old-and-senile list.

Really n-n-n-nifty: clickyclicky

My favorite pastime: searching the internet for images I'm drawn to for no particular reason.

New discovery: I am a fish. I am drawn to colorful shiny objects.

Also, I have a new obsession with benches.
Don't ask me why.



See? Awesomeness.

peace&love
