The Names Potter, Harry Potter.

At work yesterday I saw Harry Potter. Not the Daniel Radcliffe kind but the legit "you could so be a real life Harry Potter with your messy brown hair, glasses and English accent" kind. This boy truly looked and sounded like Harry Potter I was just waiting for him to "wingardrium leviosa" his food and take it to the beach on his Nimbus 2000.

Making it an even sweeter deal, he was there with his friend. Who also happened to be English, had pale freckled skin and red hair. Need I say anything more?

Take me, take me to Platform 9 3/4.

Realization



Today I realized at work we are provided with one ply toilet paper.



Thankyou city, for being cheap.

Please, Use the ENTIRE Roll

So I'm going to take a post to go completely off beach topic.

I have many pet peeves but one quite possibly at the top of that list is ONE PLY TOILET PAPER.

I truly do not see the point of having (or in most cases providing) the one ply in any bathroom. In every aspect, it sucks. Yes, it may be cheap but then you have to use so much of it to avoid rippage that it cancels out the money you save in the first place. It's time consuming and messy.

Not to mention chafes like a .....

I think I can speak for everyone, guys and girls alike, who have wound the paper around their hand multiple times to create a remotely appropriate thickness for wiping - Malls, restaurants, public places please just go up a ply.

Wipe on people, wipe on.

WILL WORK FOR MONEY

If it doesn't stop raining I'm going to stand on a road with a sign and a hat.
Or maybe I'll squeegee car windows, at least the water will be free.

Life truly sucks when the weather depicts your work schedule.

Today I very optimistically looked at my Macbook "Dashboard" app in hopes of seeing SUN icons on my weather widgets. [For those Mac deficient folk out there (you poor unfortunate souls..) I'll photo you up, down below, with a weather widget.]


Optimism be damned.

There are some suns.. but other weather sites say all rain.
So widget, I'm calling your bullshit.
NO SUN, means NO WORK. Translating to NO MONEY.

Meanwhile, like my bank account, I am wasting away ridiculously addicted to feeding the fish in the lower right hand corner of this very screen.

On the market for a squeegee,

Make a wish, feed the fish.
