there are four helicopters hovering over three downtown city blocks a couple of blocks away from my house. i can practically see the guy in the one closest to me. that can't be good...
oh wait. i think the news just said there's a protest going on. seems a tad excessive, but still. that's probably it.
and that's exactly why, ever since 9/11, i've always associated helicopters with war.

so apparently somebody's suing my old company for unpaid PTO hours and they're running up a big Class Action suit. but, see, i have trouble remembering yesterday. two, three years ago? no way. i know i hated it there, and i know i definitely want Free Money if i can get it... but can't remember whether or not i'm eligible for this. nor would i ever be able to track down paperwork to let me know. it's not that i don't have it - knowing how terrible i am at cleaning in general (and throwing things away in particular), i'm sure it's still here - it's the looking as a whole. i can't even manage to work up the ambition to do the disgusting dishes. not a chance i'll be able to convince myself to sift through years of dusty paper.
then the question is this: do i send in the form anyway, just in case? i mean, they can't do anything to me if i'm not eligible but sign the paper anyway, right? they'll just send me some form letter telling me (very politely) to fuck off, and that'll be that. yeah?

i wish i had a joke. i'd put it right here.
