2002-01-10 we had to evacuate the building again yesterday on the workfront. the unintelligible "evacuate the building" message was playing over the loudspeakers, and i was prepared to ignore it as usual, but my boss made me leave because she said she'd seen too many disaster movies where people are sitting at their desks working while the building is going up in flames. our building did not go up in flames, although stomping down 22 flights of stairs did wonders for my knees, i'm sure. i got free lunch out of the deal from my boss, who decided we may as well go eat, so all was not lost. before i knew it, it was time to go to the dentist. i had to get that cracked tooth fixed. (i didn't get any more lectures about the evils of tongue piercing, thank god.) it's a very interesting dental office. they play the classic rock radio station instead of the usual muzak. i've never before had a tooth filled by a dentist singing along to led zepplin. the staff is all young, with a few dental student-type boys. however, it's hard to look alluring when you're drooling and wearing a paper bib. once the novocaine wore off (i had begun to fear permanent nerve damage, as i couldn't move the left side of my mouth, and my nose was numb), i trekked down to the craft store. i'm making lots of post cards for busties and for people at nervousness. i'm also getting ideas for my 20 things project. there was a cute boy (i sound like i'm in junior high) in the felt aisle, so i stalked him. it made for a very enjoyable evening. i also went to the bookstore and purchased very expensive design magazines. i have a weakness for them. ***
