There are some things in this world for which you will never be prepared. I don't know what to do if pigs fall from the sky. I have no idea how to react if I am kidnapped by aliens who demand that I defend the state of humankind lest they will blast us all into messy oblivion.

I thought about saying something to Vomiting Woman, but words truly did fail me in that moment. You're right to point out that she was not the sort of person who could have paid either my dry cleaning or hair dressing bill, even with the fabulous Emmie, who sometimes tames my squid for nearly nothing.

I supposed this story is not allowed to be considered as one of my "reasons that I don't live in the Bay Area" is it?

I would offer sympathy, but really I've never had anyone barf on my head.

There's no point in even pretending that as I washed my hair out in the shower, scrubbing and scrubbing, I wasn't thinking about the fabulous livejournal entry I would write. I am now truly postmodern. I have experiences so that I can blog about them.

I shudder on your behalf. God, that's a terrifying story.

The next time I go through Civic Centre, I'm sure I'll be looking furtively over my shoulder for kamikazi barfers. Ick.
