Odd day

There was a pacifier and a pack of Newports just sitting at the corner of Brand and Broadway today, in front of the Border's. They were right next to each other. Did they have the same owner?

Then I just got back from lunch and I have some new friend request on Friendster from a girl I've never heard of, and when I try to look at her profile it says it's an invalid user ID. So I can only assume I'm being contacted by the Ghost in the Machine. Why have you picked me, you digital messenger of doom?

These omens do not bode well for the rest of the week.
