this beligerant drunken asshole went off on me last night because i touched his drink. i picked it up to put it in a cup holder and he started saying that he couldn’t drink it anymore cuz he didn’t know where my hands have been. i thought he was kidding until he didn’t let it go, and bad mouthed me for the next half hour. i stood there smiling. he asked me if i was happy with myself because he was so absolutely disgusted now. it was actually sort of funny. i was hoping he’d spill the drink so i could make some sarcastic remark about having it in a cup holder, and having to kick him off the table cuz of the spill. but no such luck. i guess he continued bad mouthing me for the rest of the night. gotta love my job.

so it looks like, if we can’t take the nevada test site tour we are going to rent a car and drive out to Rhyolite Nevada, a ghost town on the edge of death valley. it’s about 2 hours from las vegas it seems. should be cool. JC gave me a handy dandy little map of las vegas to take on the vacation. the front of the map says “blahblahblah las vegas map for urban explorers”…i think they’re misusing that term hahah

we considered driving to joshua tree national park but…haha apparently the REAL joshua tree fell down 2 years ago, so it’s not the same….it’s also 5 hours from vegas. no thanks.

in honor of tonight’s final presidential debate, my first exposure to bush’s stupidity….

“and so, in my State of the – my State of the Union – or State – my speech to the nation, whatever you want to call it, speech to the nation”
