Nah. I'm 45, that's all. You?

May 1st, 2007 at 03:20 am


This sign appears every 50 feet or so along the Aurora bridge, a magnet for this sort of problem.

Today I changed some dollars to euros for the trip. Too bad that 1507$ is only 1005 euros, but I hit it lucky at the Travelex in Westlake Center. They had a special - no 1% change rate, and a free buyback program to change the euros to dollars at the rate I got today. Due date for the buyback is 31 days, but I'll be in Atlanta on a 3 hr layover on May 31 (last day of my buyback). I know what I'll be doing!

In addition to that, it was a spendy day - a couple more bras, tights, ankle socks, and bubble bath ($38). Lunch at a kaiten sushi place ($13). DH was eyeing my Japanese-style fold out Moleskine notebook, so to avoid a fight, I picked a couple more, along with some office supplies ($29). And to top it off, a bubble tea ($3.25).

    I must be nasty but my immediate thought is "no I wasn't suicidal but now you mentioned it sky diving off of this bridge seems like such a good idea"

    The question really should be "Need to talk?" or "Call us, we can listen and help"

    In Toronto we had a bridge where they estimated that a person jumped from it once every 22 days making not quite as busy as the Golden Gate Bridge.

    So we built the luminous veil

    Maybe they were trying to save space with a short word. But really it sounds too eerie..

    I dunno, I think it really shakes you up. I think it takes a fair amount of nerve to off yourself and I think the directness of the sign is to make you lose it enough to back down.
