Components Of A Weird Day

[snarp]

1) A job interview.

2) Finding a kind of chocolate you've been on the lookout for for a couple months, and on your way to the checkout being stopped by a woman who'd also been looking for it to ask you what aisle you found it in.

3) Seeing somebody for whom you bought dorayaki last weekend mentioned in an entirely non-dorayaki-related-context on a blog you read every day.

4) The Metro goes aboveground sometimes?!

1) Oh, awesome! I have my fingers crossed for you. :)

2) That chocolate sounds delicious; I usually get Dagoba or Green & Black's, but I will be on the lookout for Grenada the next time I go shopping.

3) So that's what they're called. I like those. They're delicious.

4) Yeah, the first time I found that out I was taken aback too. Metros in Shanghai -- well, Asian metropolises in general -- are CRAAAAZY.

2) I usually get Green & Black's, too! The Divine mint dark chocolate bars are good, too. (Though I partly buy them because I think the packaging's cute?)

4) I was vaguely prepared for it when it happened in Tokyo, because it seems like an engineering challenge and I assume that Tokyo can handle those, but... the DC metro does this? DC can't even get the lights on the buses to work!
