I just remembered the time that the hitting coach for the baseball team I worked with asked me and the other female dugout staff during a game if we had any nail polish. Granted it was for the catcher’s nails during a night game, but what woman stays strapped with white nail polish while at work.

a doodle comic based on an actual dream i had last night a dark figure stares out at the audience "last night my dreams were haunted by a strange man" The figure stands in the middle of the panel, still staring. "Everywhere I went, he'd be there waiting for me." A crude drawing of a man dissolving into fog "It was Guy Ritchie, director of such films as Snatch, Wrath of Man, and Swept Away, appearing as a fog, as a shade. He kept saying he was here to tell me that he was going to take another go at making an Aladdin movie." A shitty drawing of the genie from Disney's Aladdin with a clearly traced image of Jason Statham's face on the body. "Still for Disney. They have the money. But this time he'd be doing it 'his way'. This time, the genie would be Jason Statham. Every other actor would be the same though."
