- SCD (sketchy cab driver) - leaving for the airport sunday am before 5AM, got in a cab w/ SCD. this guy spent our entire cab ride detailing sketchy business transactions and drunken nights with the "loan girls" from his recent trip to idaho. i secretly wanted to shout "dude, it's 5AM, i'm still half asleep and do you really, REALLY want to share the details of your seemingly illegal business deals and prostitutes?" instead i shut my mouth and pretended to be interested.
- HBB (head bag banger) - nearly lost my head on the airplane when HBB behind me got so anxious to get her bag in the not full overhead bin that she whacked me in the head (hard!) with the wheel on her carry-on. when i turned around and glared she seemed confused. my thought? why are we always pushing to get on a plane and sit in our seats (unless in 1st class) when we are just going to be crunched like tuna in a can for the next 5 hours. settle down and wait, we'll find something to do with your piece o' shite bag.
- CC2 (Chevy Chase 2) - went to dinner with some colleagues the other night and was accosted by a chevy chase look alike. seriously, this guy was chevy chase from vacation and his kids could've passed for the red-necked brother's kids in that movie. highlights that came out of his mouth. "you work w/ {company i work for}? do you work with cords?" now any of you who know what i do, know that said company does not work in cords (it's a household name). and another: "what i think you ladies should do is head on back to your hotel and get yourself a male masseuse. i always tell my wife to get one." (this while hitting on the woman next to him, for the whole dinner - her husband was sitting two people down). believe me, CC2 was a real gem - we're still talking about him.
quote of the week (by she who will not be named): "first i saw the space shuttle and then i got a hummer!"
yep, heading back to the pdx for a month tomorrow. more scintillating tales later...
