< i live on the second floor | posted at 10:32 pm on June 17, 2003 > ooh, yay, i'm sick, now i'm regretting wanting it.another day, another free dvd - this time the 3-disc collector's edition of black hawk down, i was presented it in a brown paper lunch bag with a mumble of 'present for you in there, keep it quiet' -- i did at first think it was lunch, but squealed in delight when i found out what it really was. and my dad squealed at home, too. ALSO my lovely sarah (number 2) gave me a $50 gift voucher for general pants, because she said she'd give me a surprise for my work on the july issue, how sweet is that! i plan on spending it tomorrow, how wonnnnderful. if i could make this a hat trick of gift-filled days... yet still in shitty mood as am sick and computers seemed to be crashing everywhere i went. however i did sniffle out of central station this morning desperately wanting tissues (as today was height of illness day) and there are people in kleenex t-shirts (branded ones, obviously, not actual tissue ones, that would have been mighty cold) handing out sample aloe vera pocket packs - talk about fate. today was very much a good day in that respect, in hindsight, but not while it was happening because for some reason i had paranoid fears that people at the office had found this thing. which i now realise were paranoid. but during today therefore i did feel quite bad. those last five |
