my trip back from san francisco took me on public transportation again
then to SFO
and on the long island railroad train back to penn station (here it is early on new year's eve):
and then, for ridiculous reasons (composers spend an inordinate amount of time at the post office), i had to mail an express package on new year's eve at around 5pm at the main post office:

Hey I didn't read the fine print -- is it strangers only? Of these quotes, only the first one here is a stranger overheard. Every other one was someone I know saying something that I jotted down for some reason...
"Piano’s is great but it’s small so you can’t see bands you like, cuz it’ll be really crowded; if you’ve heard of the band you shouldn’t go."
"That’s totally retro 1940’s -- she’s really up to date."
"That nose is a red herring."
"Anything that can get knotted can get unknotted."
"Dude, a lot of PEOPLE couldn’t pass a fucking Turing Test."
"Mi mayo (mayonaise) es tu mayo."
"Not while I'm eating okay? Change the station. I don't want to hear about Abu Ghraib, I don't want to hear about Bush. It makes my stomach churn; I just want to eat my lunch."
