A 23 year old woman went for a run Thursday Aug. 28, and never ended p coming back home. She was found floating in the waters of New York Harbor on the morning of Tuesday, Sept. 16. What the hell? I guess this whole Jason Bourne movie scenario is a real thing. The first recorded case was "Ansel Bourne, a Rhode Island preacher who suffered the condition when he was en route to Providence in 1887. The preacher continued to Norristown, Pa., where he opened a store and lived with another family, until one day he “woke up.” Woah. This is crazy. The NYT article goes on to say that the possible explanation of behind the fugue is that "the person is running away from a bad situation, from a bad marriage or a bad financial situation.”
Supposedly the disappearing woman visited the Apple store and got in her email, visited a few gyms, and even had a conversation with a Pace student. Creepy.

last day of unemployment
I start training at a restaurant tomorrow evening. Dang it for missing The Office.
the bachelor
He kicked off Jillian?! Really?! My theory : In the final, last chance videos Jillian never actually said the words, "I love you". Unlike the other two school girl like women that are left. Here Molly comes prepared with an essential list of question which she said were important to know the answers to if you were going to be engaged to someone. I agree but I have one, oh I don't know, slightly minor problem with this whole thing... she should have been asking these "getting to know you" questions on every date they have been on. She didn't, and he didn't, so what the hell have they been talking about?!
When you get to know someone, are genuinely interested in their personality rather than just their body and how nice a ring will look on your finger, don't you just stop to ask those types of questions? Those are not things which should be forced into conversation.
Then there is Melissa, who seemed to be stumbling through her video, not really sure of what she wants to say, nor is confident in what is coming out of her mouth. And the way she says Im falling in love with you is so doe eyed, and impersonal it's like the idea of just being the winner makes those silly words fall out of her mouth.
Jason has grown on me. He's much more his own person than the googly mushy man in love who he was in the past season. With that said I don't think he should try and convince himself that his partner is one of these two girls. Really? Out of all the women in the country and these are the two women left? I do think there wasn't much of a selection to begin with, but hey we need ratings right?
Anyway, im rooting for Deanna.

taylor swift = cat
Does anyone else think that Taylor Swift looks like a cat? To me this is truly an example of what good pr can do for you. Im not a teenager, and I have actually never heard one of her songs. Ok, I heard about a minute of one. I was on a plane to LA flying Virgin and it was the only music video I hadn't seen yet. So I give it a chance and it is basically just her lying on a bed practically making out with a guitar. It was lame.
Anyway, because of my lack of knowledge about Ms. Swift I probably should cut her some slack. ... But I still think she looks like a cat.

things on TV
Since I recently moved into a house that has cable, I have been watching more tv than I would otherwise. Sure, I downloaded shows before, and watched them streaming, but watching TV real time is completely different. I end up watching things I could are less about, like, Double Shot at Love with the Ikki twins, who somehow think that loves means vodka shots and sleepovers. Let me also interject and say that I would think if they could afford a publicist or agent then that said person would have enough foresight to change their last name. If not just for the sake of creating such an easy target. When I am not boiling my brain with crappy MTV I have stumbled across The Bachelorette with Tristan. Yes the show aired over 4 years ago, yes I know how it ends, and yes I know they already popped one out. It was almost midnight on the country channel and I got sucked in.
This brings me up to the entire reason I started writing this post. My gosh, The Bachelor 2009. I cannot wait for the coming episodes and for Dianna to pop back into the picture! Really, I can't wait. I know they cut it how they want to, and make us think we know something when we really don't, but I don't care. I don't care about the cheesiness, about the unrealistic dates and dating situations. I love Monday nights.

friends are awesome
A story - I was walking down the sidewalk the other day and i sneezed. And as a woman on the bicycle passed she said, "Bless You".... It was so sweet.
Thank you for everyone that helped me celebrate my birthday. You made me feel special and everything was delicious. Thank You!

unemployment - day 32
"Im sorry" the tattooed mutli-colored haired woman said behind the counter, without any care or consideration in her voice, "We aren't hiring." She was at Peet's. But she could have been from any of the other millions of places I have been. No shit, you're not hiring. No one is. I really haven't been to a million places. I still haven't been to Safeway, Trader Joes rejected me first, I thought I would give it a few days first before I tried another grocery store.
This is a really interesting time and has made me be way more realistic about money. It's a time when chef's are applying for serving jobs, and when I don't really need that cup of coffee in the morning. It's a time when I go around and around in my head wondering in what direction I need to steer my life. It's kind of fun, kind of worrisome, and also kind of refreshing. Its funny how life changes when structure and schedule goes away. It makes for some very late pajama wearing mornings. It also makes me happy I am not sitting in an office for so many hours. Seriously. I hope I never do that again. Ever.
At some point I need t suck it up, I can't be wishy woshy forever. That's not going to get me anywhere. The great thing about being undecided and about such a shitty economy is that I know, anything I probably choose now, will not be my career. So, it's ok if I work as a server for awhile. Im not going to do that forever.
That's it really. I just wanted to comment.
Cheers-
