Le Box d'X
Sometimes, life is unfair, and sometimes, it drops a box of goodies in your lap. In this case, I was at a company holiday party on Friday, which was very enjoyable on many levels. One of those levels was winning an X-Box. That rocked, so hard, even if it meant that I was lugging around a big paper box for the rest of the night.
Lugging a box around might not sound like much, but think of this:
1. I don't have a car. I take public transit to get home.
2. Public transit involves taking a train through a tunnel under the Hudson River at 4 a.m.
3. Public transit also means taking the train back to Manhattan at 5 a.m. after realising that my keys were at the office.
4. Public transit changes flavours on the return trip since the buses begin running on a more regular schedule after 6 a.m.
5. I left the bar at 3 a.m., finished eating in Koreatown at 4 a.m., but didn't get to bed until 7 a.m.
Let's just say that I've yet to regain the energy to actually plug the thing in, as I'm sure I'll have to fend off the cats and spray all the cables with foul tasting stuff to keep them from eating them... like they did to my cellphone's headset yesterday.
