The Room
Today I had an appointment with Adam Kreigal, a really nice tall-ex-college-guy who, through a new SUNY Albany Business Studies program, landed his own AllState Insurance Agency and isn't paying any rent on it for the rest of the year. Adam learned me a thing or two about them thar insurANCE pollyseas, and yeah..if my G5 dies in a fire they will buy me the EXACT SAME ONE toot-sweet. Yeeh.
Adam was a big man who was actually a little bit younger than myself. He reminded me alot of myself, especially when I asked him how long he'd been out of college and he replied with a "phew! It's been a year already!" I hate venturing into the adult world and I'm sure Adam does too, even though we both like our jobs and where they are taking us. Something about us (and I'm sure it's true for every middle-class adult in the country) makes everyone yearn for the old days of School Reality, where the world was free and magical, and dinner appeared at a certain time like yummy clockwork.
What's funny is that Adam was the previous occupant of my current apartment, 15-22. His girlfriend and her dog also lived here, and they were of good standing w/the nutty woman who owns Mona (the cat that greets me at the window every time I come home.) Small world...two people, same apartment, similar dreams...we had what it takes to make it to apartment 1522, and we have what it takes to move on.

that's crazy! the previous occupents and they even knew Mona? What's the scoop on Magnus?
Where'd you get the fly servbot hat? Beat up some kid hm?
The scoop on Mona and Magnus is that the weird cat-loving lady underneath us ... is WEIRD. My previous theory that she eats cats and replaces them every month is defunct, tho.
THE FLY SERVBOT HAT comes from my dear Raileepoo, who is Omni-Asian and very very very skilled with a needle and thread.
