I had a mild panic attack yesterday morning on the bus. I put on my headphones, pressed play on the ipod and got nothing. It froze. I pushed every button and still wasn't getting any love. It wouldn't even turn off, it was stuck. It wasn't until an hour into the workday when Walter told me that I had to press "play" and "menu" to reset it. It was fine, just a glitch in the ones and zeros. Whew! Big thanks to Walter!

Now it's time for a new segment to bobborden.com, I call it BobBorden.com's Uneventful Story, here we go: I forgot my gloves yesterday but it was OK, it wasn't that cold. That was BobBorden.com's Uneventful Story -- tell your friends.

I forgot to mention that on Friday morning I got a haircut. There's a shop in the subway and damn if that guy can't cut a mean head of hair. He was telling me that he had a shop on 42nd Street for 39 years! He moved to the subway 7 years ago when the city "sold" everything to Disney. I shouldn't talk about this because I don't want people to think that I'm "showing off" but I enjoyed the conversation and the cut so much, I gave the guy a 100% tip. I'm only writing about it because it made me feel good. I haven't gone to this barber too much because I was in his shop on 9/11. Not a good memory. I've been going from barber to barber for years, I think I'll stick with this guy for awhile.

I have another story from Friday that I forgot about, I need to start taking notes on my life, ha ha. I was on the bus, my knees were jammed up against the seat and along comes this big ox of a dude. He sits down hard and the seat kills my knees. So, there's that. Then he starts talking to his friend, idiot #2, about soft drinks. I mean, this was an extended conversation about power drinks and Mountain Dew. I couldn't take it anymore, I had to put on my headphones. I was listening to sweet music while watching these dorks go on and on. We're getting close to my stop, I take my headphones off and I hear them talking about pagans and the Roman empire! No kidding. How do you get from Mountain Dew to the Roman empire in one bus ride?! I'm glad I didn't have to find out. The bus sucks sometimes.

My apartment still smells like lamb chops. I really burnt those suckers Sunday night. I meant to stop off at the candle shop last night to pick up a vanilla scented candle. Isn't it funny that there's a candle shop in this day and age? The mark up on candles must be so huge. I like candles but don't have them lit too much because of the cats. It just seems like a disaster waiting to happen. That's why I don't have any plants either. I'd come home after work and the plant, without fail, would always be knocked over. They loved that plant!

That's all I have to talk about today. Wait, nevermind, that's it!

Stay beautiful,

Bob
