Coolness factor
It was actually almost cool enough last night to wear long pants! I wore my jeans. It was an exciting new way to dress.
Well, it most definitely is not Gaudi.
This coffee shop girl who has the long gnarled dreads and isn't particularly attractive and still doesn't acknowledge me (even though all the others do) just asked the guy showing her pictures of his trip to Europe if that was Gaudi. I looked over my shoulder at the picture and as far as I could tell it was a cathedral I saw in Florence. Even if it isn't the same one, it is full on catholic church architecture and nothing remotely similar to Gaudi. Whatever. She is not as cool as she thinks. She probably owns the place.
I've come back to EG's (Electrician Guy) place more than once to see him sitting alone watching some random old black and white movie. Not one he rented, but just the one that happens to be on. That's the last thing I would be watching and even the first thing I would be watching I don't watch.
He's an interesting character. For all his John Wayne bluster, he's really more than that. He has the ability to apologize. The other day at this different job site I went to with him, he warned me that it was behind schedule and everyone was all stressed out and being assholes. As soon as we walked in, this spike haired, both ear pierced foreman started going off on EG. He was yelling and insulting and belittling him even. EG just didn't say much and kept working.
I was more pissed and ready to fight than he was. I never said a word to this dick. Later as I was hanging a fan in a bathroom, he walked in. It was just him and me in the room. He said 'how's it going' or something to that effect. I didn't acknowlege him in any way. It was obvious.
EG apologized for him later, and for this other guy that also went off on both of us because we were on the carpet with shoes on. EG was saying that they both are usually really cool and nice guys.
Just goes against the grain of the manly EG image. I mean all this complimentarily.
