"Don't Take Your Camera To Work" Day

In an effort to trim down the number of unnecessary gadgets on my person (I'm like a walking billboard: Apple (PowerBook and iPod, 24/7), Nokia, Handspring, Leica, Marlboro) I decided not to take my camera to work with me today.

Fast forward to 3pm this afternoon. The restaurant attached to my club is basically empty. Except one table. Which is taken up by Natalie P*rtman. Bah.

I consoled myself by repeating a mantra over and over.

"She looked like a hippie at the MTV Movie Awards. Looked like a hippie. Looked like a hippie."

I thought I got through it all pretty well. Of course, then the day went from bad to worse. La P*rtman left, it started to pour, 78 ten-year-olds arrived for a birthday party, and all my friends backed out of film-watching plans for the evening.

Bah. And double bah.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go listen to Elvis & Burt's divine "God Give Me Strength" and tell my boyfriend that the only person with access to the boltcutters that will let us put our air-conditioner in the window is on vacation for 11 more days.
