Sorry it's been so long

You know the story...work is taking up all of my time, nothing interesting. Except...my roomate is getting married tomorrow (Congrats Jenn!) and I had to find a new place to live. I was stressed over it for about a day until Mike found this ad on Craigslist for a great place in the neighborhood where I started off (Windsor Terrace, right by Prospect Park which in my opinion is a million times greater than Central Park). Anyway, be on the look-out for a mass email with my address. I'm really excited about this place. My roomate seems really cool and the place is much nicer than any place that I've stayed at since I've been here.

Anyway, that's all I got for now. Work seems to be draining all my creativity, although yesterday I did come across a song on my ipod that made me think "Yeah, this should definitely be on my list of Greatest Songs Ever." Except that now, I can't remember what the song was. Hmmm...

Okay, well hope you're all doing great! Joyce, honey, I read your blog today and WOW! It's been a while since I've read it (see first paragraph about work). Just then I couldn't remember how to make that word "blog" contain the URL to your website, so I'm gonna just type it out here. http://www.ukspeaksstateslisten.blogspot.com/
Y'all go check it out!!

Go ahead without me

So Mike and I went to eat at this really yummy Thai place in Park Slope tonight called Song. During the dinner, it started raining and when we left, it had turned into a soft, yet annoying mist. Beautiful, yes, but we had about 20 blocks to go and didn't feel like walking the whole way while slowly getting drenched, so we decided to wait (and wait and wait) for the bus which never came, so we started to walk again. Then I had to go to the bathroom, so I snuck into this bar (which happened to be positioned with a bus stop right in front. When I exited the bar a few minutes later, the bus had already stopped and then left, but was a few feet up stuck at a red light. Mike said "You think we can beat it the three blocks to the next light?" So I took off, with him hot on my tail. Then the following two lights turned green, and Mike decided that it was a lost cause, so we stopped. Then he decided that he was wrong, and that if we hadn't stopped, we could have made it which really frustrated me because I had been running pretty impressively! So he started as if he were going to run off and try to catch it but looked at me for approval, and I said:

"Go on without me! I'll try to catch up!"

Then I thought (as I began running again), that I sounded like something out of a really dramatic scene in a Hollywood flick, but I couldn't think of any situation in real life (other than the bus scenario) for which that line was appropriate. So I decided I would ask you guys (sorry, I mean y'all) for scenarios. Okay?

So to review: The line is: "Go on without me! I'll try to catch up!"

You name the scene...
