Mm hugs

This morning on the subway, there was a gigantic doggy! Unfortunately, he belonged to a police officer who kept warning everyone away, saying, "Don't touch him! I don't want him to take a chunk out of you!" He seemed nice enough to me - sniffed the end of my coat and sat down and yawned. More than anything, I just wanted to scratch him by the ears. I think the officer could tell since he kept glaring at me. But...but...so...cute....

Just now I was speaking on the phone with a consultant who was having problems with autoCAD. I asked him how familiar he was with the program and he seemed to get offended. He asked me, "So, how long have you been using autoCAD?" Thinking nothing of it, I replied that I've been using it reliably for about the past four years. Then he said, "Well, I've been using it since 1993!" As if he should win some prize. I don't think the amount of years you've spent using a program dictates how well you use it. Anyhow, I replied with, "Well, I was in third grade in 1993. I couldn't spell reliably much less use a computer program like that." Yeah, I went there.
