Today was a bit of a laid back day. There was the trip to see the friend's apartment, the Chris Noth sighting at Trader Joe's, and entertainment provided by the BF. We were passing by J&R and I stopped everyone to tell them the following. About two months ago I met up with some friends who were visiting from San Francisco. We'd gone to Vlada and had had a good time. The space was nice, the crowd was whatever, Allison Mack from Smallville was there. Lord knows, she's not a big girl, but for some reason she looked like she had a belly. She was also a bit sloshed and was so gushy about her brand new best friend. Anyhow, I hopped the subway back home but, of course, the lines were all fucked up. I ended up walking back home from the Brooklyn Bridge/City Hall station. Still, it was a nice evening so I didn't mind walking the extra five, ten minutes. As I passed by the J&R electronics store, I saw something brown and squirmy in the window. Yes, it was a large, large rat on the guard's podium, sniffing at the first aid kit and the phone. Personally, I kind of like rats and this one had personality. As I snapped a couple of pictures with my phone it sniffed at me through the window, tried to climb the phone's cord and tried to get into the first aid kit. My photo shoot made a couple stop to watch as well. Anyhow, flash forward to today... I was telling the BF and Lu and showing them the pictures when the BF decided that the folks who work at J&R had to know. He grabbed my phone, marched into the store and accosted the first employee he encountered. We watched through the window as he showed it to the first one, who called over others, pointed to the place where the picture was taken, called over others, and others... the entire staff must have seen them. When the BF finally emerged we asked what they had said. "They want us to bring prints," was the answer. They'll have to wait until tomorrow, but you can see it today. Ladies and gents, I give you the J&R rat!
