jimbo day
Last night I was over at Brian's to watch 'Austin Powers: the Spy Who Shagged Me' in order to prepare myself for the next one, 'Goldmember'. Pretty funny, and we had some rum and Coke. Brian also showed me how to optimize my slutting about on Yahoo Chat. It's still a clunky system, but at least doesn't crash as much as ICUII.
So I get home rather late, and pop my nightly Guiafen pill that keeps my snot flowing and prevent sinus infections. Sometimes it makes you hyper, and maybe it was that and the rum, but my heart was racing until very late. Finally, when I was drifting to sleep, my closet door opens spontaneously, the automatic light glaring in my face. I was creeped out and startled, which delayed my sleep even more.
So this morning I could not emerge from my flannel cocoon very easily, so I called in sick. Jimbo Day! I'll try to work out and run at mid-day, since it's somewhat reasonable outside, which will keep me from being hyper until late in the evening. Maybe I'll even wash my car in preparation for the New York trip. How do you get to Brooklyn from DC?

You're on for Goldmember, gurl. Just the sort of local thing I want to do in NYC.

DC to Brooklyn:
95 North darlin - all the way to either the Holland Tunnel (then across Manhattan to the Brooklyn Bridge or the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel, or one of the other bridges); or
you can go Staten Island-Brooklyn via some longer bridges (Verrazano).
I'd opt for the tunnel myself.
