I love Overheard in NY

That Really Gets My Goat

Woman: No, I'm telling you, I'm right! He couldn't eat the Trix because he was an adult rabbit, and Trix were only supposed to be for kids.
Man: Well, I always thought it was just because he was a rabbit and not a person.
[A period of silence -- the woman looks down at her food.]
Man: What's wrong?
Woman: I'm just really getting tired of you always being wrong.

Lion Alert Level: Yellow

Little girl, loudly: ROAR!
Little girl's dad: Leslie, stop it, you're scaring the people.
Little girl, quietly: Roar...
Little girl's dad: Very nice Les, scare them subtly.

I am so sleepy and I have a hurty throat and it's yucky and I miss New York and I don't wanna be sick no more and I am grumpy and miss the boy SOMUCH and that's all.

*hugs* NYC misses you, too!

Seriously though, once you're feeling better and start adjusting to Chicago life, I'm sure you'll start feeling better. You're going to have a fancy new job! And a new apartment! It will be fun, and shiny, and new:)

And then, once you have it all figured out in a few months, you can advise me when I'm going through total NYC-withdrawal all the way over on the West Coast;)

I'm sorry for the hurty throat, but once you get healthy you'll love Chicago, too. And OMG, that woman in the first conversation is such a moron. Little Leslie is cute, though.

Well, there's always Overheard in Chicago. Not quite as fun, though, but I did love this one. And OMG, this one. Bwa ha ha!

On a more serious note, I hope things start looking up for you. I'm sorry you miss your old city and the boy and are sick. :(
