Quote of the Week:
"An industrial capitalist society that does not recognize ecological limits but only perpetual economic expansion and has the profit motive as driver, will eventually consume and destroy itself."

So....I woke up yesterday with a nasty cold. It was around 11:30 and everyone had already gone to work and wouldn't be home for a while. I had the whole apartment to myself to do what ever I wanted for the whole day! So moved from the bed to the couch and turned on Ellen. Ellen is very entertaining because she dances. The dancing isn't entertaining in itself, it's the audience's reaction that is entertaining. I't's very funny to watch a bunch of 40 something housewives try to "break it down" with Ellen. It's funny to watch old people dance. Anyway, it was a little too much when Celine Dion started giving her performance. So I said "That does it, no more masochism, I'm going to surf the internet!" Well, sometimes the wireless signal doesn't stretch into the apartment and we have to wander outside the door to get a signal. Not a problem/ I moved outside and much to my dismay, the door didn't open. I was locked outside my apartment without keys, cellphone, or shoes. A nasty predicament. I tried frantically for a minute to get the internet to work so that I could email someone. (I didn't know who I could email, but it was the only thing I could think of). So my next thought was to fix the internet problem. So I went downstairs to find Jonah, out ISP incarnate, so he could fix the internet problem. Fortunately, there were circumstances unforeseen by me; Jonah had a cellphone! I explained to him my situation and asked to borrow his cellphone. The only person I could think of to call was Kate. Julia couldn't get off work and neither could Val. Kate probably couldn't either, but she was the only person I could think of. Unfortunately, I couldn't remember her phone number. So I called my dad, but he was at his boss' mom's funeral and couldn't answer his phone. Just then, Jonah suggested that I go down to the rental company so that they could let me in.
"But Jonah, I don't have any shoes on." "No problem, you can borrow mine, do you need a coat." "Thanks!, I don't need a coat though, it's still warm outside (ha! suckers in goshen)" So I left the computer in Jonah's care and walked the many blocks to the rental company in Jonah's new shoes. The guy said he'd be there in a half an hour to let me in. So I walked back to the apartment, yelled up to Jonah's window so that he could let me into the building, gave him back his shoes, took my computer back, and waited patiently in front of my door for the guy to come. Eventually he let me back in and I'm hoping he doesn't charge me the usual $75 fee. That would suck. A lot.
