In seventh grade there was this really dorky guy who sat on the front row in my science class. He was tragically nerdy and very unattractive. Often, he had fowl smelling breath and terrible body odor.

One day, a cricket climbed up on him from places unknown and up his shirt and onto his shoulder. He didn't notice, but its appearance quickly made its way around the class. Several people laughed, but no one was quite sure how to broach the topic with him.

I motioned for the teacher and a girl went up to the teacher and told him what was going on. The teacher called the boy up and quietly told him about the cricket.

The boy said, "Oh no! Not again."

He was allowed to leave the class to remove it.

I can't remember what made me think of that. He was always a fairly nice guy, just socially and physically unattactive.

In accordance with prophesy, I am moving to New York City in mid to late March.

I'm excited about living there. I'm terrified at the prospect of moving there. Especially because I don't think that my three bedroom house is going to fit in a 500 sq ft loft.

So, we'll see!

I went on vacation. I'll post some photos sometime this or next week. We'll see.

But I'm back from visiting a friend in New York City. Great fun was had!

And I tried to listen out for some crazy stuff that people said for Overheard in New York, but I don't think they were the best they've heard over there. I might have been saying the funniest things that could be said in the places I went.
