- Realized I'd left the book I bought last night in Tony's car, which is my fault. But when I tried to call him, for the first time ever, got his answering machine.
- Tried to check into tomorrow's flight on West Jet and got jerked around by the web site, constantly getting conflicting information. A simple web site outage would have been disappointing; that was infuriating. I still don't know if I'm checked in.
- Had the worst taxi ride of my life. Here's how you know your taxi driver sucks--he sits for a five count once the light has turned green and cars have passed him. The guy was argumentative, slow, and took an absurd route to my two-mile destination. Thank Christ I had the sense not to tip him. My parting words to him were "Fuck off."
- Because I was flustered and running late, I missed that Tony had tried to bring my book to the train station. (What a mensch.)
- Found a large, obnoxious party jamming up the boarding of the train.
- Once uderway, I bought breakfast at the dining car and tried to mellow out. Once settled back in my seat, I discovered I'd failed to get a spoon and had to march back to the dining car for one.
- I started playing on-line poker and hit a royal flush, the best hand possible. I've played thousands of games and never even seen a royal flush before, and this morning I got one. Then shortly after that, I got disconnected from the game and lost.
- In Everett, Washington, the train picked up three, cap-wearing douchebags who've sat across the aisle from me. They showed up with a case of Coors Light in the train; it was 8:30 am. Now I get to hear their fat-girl jokes and crying-stripper stories.

Update: Douchebag #1 cracks his first Coors at 9:52 am.
I'm now mellowing out at Lisa and Elana's.

The lapdance is always better when the stripper is crying.
That's exactly what douchebag # 1 said. Is that a common saying?
