We had such a good time at work today! Once again, I ran the company potluck and this time it was the Endless Summer Potluck and Hawaiian Shirt Friday. To my amazement, most of the folks got into the spirit and donned their best Alohas. One coworker brought in his Tiki wood totem for decoration and shared with me his Hawaiian music CD. I ripped the CD and put them on my Sensa MP3 player along with my choice picks of Jack Johnson, “Lime and the Coconut” song, Moby’s “Porcelain”, and Elvis Greatest Hits. It wouldn’t be a Hawaiian event...

5:09 p.m. – I arrive at the bus stop. I spot my fellow bus rider, Bus Girl. 5:11 p.m. – Bus Buddy comes out of his building. He waves at me and continues to chat with his coworker. 5:20 p.m. – Bus Buddy comes over to sit with me after his friend got on her bus. It’s past 5:15. The bus is indeed late.

I don’t know if this Volkswagen spot runs outside of Southern California. But there’s a series of a supposedly recorded real conversation between VW German Engineer and a car salesman while test driving some cars. So far we’ve heard something like, “This car is not fast. And it’s making me furious” and “Driving this car I feel like I’m being punished”. But the end of this new one is this: Car, honk if you suck. *Honk* And I giggle. Uncontrollably. Perhaps I truly lost my mind…...

A few things that never fails to amaze me. 1. Los Angeles freeways at 9 a.m. on Sunday morning. Where did everybody go?? 2. I was going 85 mph and was the slowest car on the road. 3. I could go 85 mph in Merlin, my 1996 Toyota Corolla, and he didn’t disintegrate. 4. “The Alchemist” has one thing right. When your heart desires something the most, the universe conspires to make sure you get there. After having taken an email flogging from my home girls this past week, the universe is moving in my direction. See, Joy and Lily...
