another timeless moment
I'm filing this under coincidences because it is, more or less, one of them.
This morning as I picked out my wristwatch* I glanced at it to see if it was running. Its minute and second hands pointed between 8 and 9, so I figured that it being somewhere between 8:33 and 8:45 am (given the fact that my watches are all between 0 and 7 minutes fast) was fine, and hurried off to work.
It was only later, about twenty minutes later, in fact, that I noticed the time on my watch hadn't changed. In fact it had stopped sometime yesterday (8:42 am or pm), and I had somehow managed to look at it during the window today when the time was more or less correct. I hadn't looked at the date.
Fully knowing, then, that it isn't running, I've checked it at least three times today. Still wrong. It'll be right tonight, though.
* Not being much of an accessories fellow, the only fashion/jewelry indulgence I have is my collection of watches. I could wear a different one each day to work, and even coordinate them to the outfits, to some degree. Today, being 'casual Friday', I grabbed one with a leather cuff to give my t-shirt and baggy jeans that extra street touch. Or skater, or punk, or whatever.

I wear just one watch, my Fossil watch taht cost me nearly 100 bones. It's nice and full steel. The crystal is a bit scratched due to years and years of abuse, but is still plenty clear.
You know that Chicago picture? What am I saying, of course you know about it... Anyway, I saw a modified version of that on 4chan (NSFW warning!!) with the twin towers shopped in. When i saw your original it spooked me.
