box of rocks

I just spent an entire day reorganizing a spreadsheet of data so I could more easily analyze it. Only to realize that I'd done it the looooooong and wroooong way, and i just accidentally recreated it in about 45 minutes, while trying to do something else.
WHY?! why am i so dense?

Oh, Excel. I hate you and you wily ways.

On the upside, while working in my local coffee shop I observed/overheard the following:

-3 middle-aged hippies recounting that one time when their friend who had never touched drugs went to Mexico and took peyote.
-a Teach for America fellow getting a pep talk from an administrator
-3 high school kids with a guitar and a pack of menthols

and......AND!
-a transvestite in a red, floor length, fake fur cape with a matching red & white fur crown!
