Hipster
I'm sitting in a parking lot, waiting for a bank to open, because apparently I can't get my life together. After I do that I'll be in an all day meeting about relationships. I generally like to be left alone in the workplace. I get more work done that way. It's part of the appeal of a one woman science show.
In honor of the all day meeting, Nick and I have decided to dress like hipsters.

Batman
Last Night while playing Dungeons and Dragons.
Casey: You walk into the hall and notice it's a lot larger than the outside would lead you to believe. It goes back very far....basically it's bigger on the inside.
Me: *giggling*
Patrick: Pervert.
Me: (I shake my head) Nerd.
Today while waiting for work to begin.
Joe: Batman is the best superhero of all time. He's rich, has an amazing car, fights crime, and has a bunch of awesome gadgets to help him do it.
Me: I don't want to see a story about a rich guy. I want a Batman that drives a crappy 80's Honda Accord, lives in a sub-let apartment, and has to balance his checkbook every month while fighting crime.
Joe: What!? I don't want to watch a Hipster Batman.
Me: *realizing* Oh God....I did just create Hipster Batman, didn't I?
Joe: Yeah instead of body armour, he'd just have skinny jeans.

Kaitlin Olson
Sometimes I fall asleep hoping for amazing dreams. Like I'm living in a Van Gogh world or sailing on an ocean of pebbles. I try to clear my mind before I drift off or I read something fantastical beforehand, hoping it will persuade my subconscious.
Tonight, up until the end, my dreams were incredibly pedestrian. Filling my car with gas, performing housework, driving around and the like. It didn't help that there is some terrible smell permeating through my open window that woke me several times tonight. I should have just closed my windows but this taste of fall weather makes me reckless.
Then for some horrible reason I am buying a meat sandwich. Not just pastrami and sausage and all that horrid shit but it also had some awful spam filling sitting across the crest of the loaf like a lifeless phallus. If I could smell in dreams I'm sure it would smell terrible. Then it happens, as I'm walking out of the shop I see the thing I want to be dreaming about, just sitting there. It sees me and smiles, asking quietly if I'm going to stay this time. I do. I feel embarrassment, being caught with such an awful sandwich but still I sit, on the precipice of excitement. It starts to tell me a story but then I awake. Fuck you, brain.
Although I am glad in retrospect I woke up because I am now having a mild asthma attack and have no medicine to speak of. Now I'm scared to fall back asleep for fear I might die.

Rose Tyler
This is how I've spent my day...
Cleaning my bike and refilling the tires. I almost went for a ride but got distracted by eggs.
Reading The War of the Worlds in my front yard. Any moment I expected something foreign to crash into the ground next to me. Eventually I had to stop because I wanted chicken.
Knitting and watching Doctor Who on my couch. Now that it's getting cooler I don't feel ridiculous making a scarf. Something about handling fuzzy yarn in the summer gives me the wig.
Human contact is supposed to make you happy, right? Today I've had contact with no one and I feel happier than I have in awhile. I wish I could spend everyday like this.

Liz Lemon
So a few days ago I'm eating some microwave noodles at my desk. I am also wearing my uniform which I kind of hate to wear. After two years of wearing one everyday I will take the extra 20 minutes to shave my legs and slap on a dress. This may be one of the few feminine things about me.
While eating the noodles a few of them fall on my shirt. Did I mention they were red curry noodles? I feel like I should cause they were delicious.
Thinking no one was looking I quickly eat the noodles off of my shirt. My friend and fellow co-worker Joe sees this, he and I are complete opposites yet we get along wonderfully based on a friendship where we constantly bust each others balls. Anyway, Joe sees this and judgement instantly crosses his face
Joe: Oh MY GOD! You are Liz Lemon!
Me: *With a mouth full of noodles* Whuck?
I wish I was as cool as Liz Lemon. I'm just disgusting.

Felicia Day
It's a beautiful day.
I realize this after I decide to go for a walk. I was just sitting on my bed watching episodes of Firefly when a light breeze bites at my back. Really the only reason I open my windows is to rid my room of the funk of dirty laundry it has accumulated over the week. Regardless, I get a sudden itch to go for a walk.
I put on some shoes, grab my Ipod and began to walk, listening to the Felicia Day Nerdist episode. I said yesterday to some co-workers I can't think of a woman I would go gay for. I stand corrected, Felicia Day is adorable.
I walk many places, mostly through lots of alley's. I grew up in a neighborhood with a lot of alley's and it's been awhile since I could walk through some at my leisure. At the end, my hair is mussed and wild, my feet sore, and now I am ready for a cat nap. Along the way I see several things.

- Three children sitting in a porch swing in very close conference. They are obviously discussing very important matters such as what to do with this Saturday now that school has started weekends are again precious.
- An older couple also out walking. We cross paths many times through the twists and turns of the streets. They though, are more appropriately dressed for said walk. Each time I see them they talk animatedly. Each time I see them their hands are interlocked. Upon my third time seeing them I think to myself, "Wow, I should NOT have worn this red pendleton shirt."
- I come across another ally that is just lovely. At the threshold, two distinguished aged trees intermingled their branches which created a shaded ten feet or so, stretching out and eventually dissolving into sunlight. It looks as if I were to walk through this ally, I would be transported. Leave this plane for another land, the Faerie or some other such place. It also looked cool in temperature and the sun was starting to warm up. I don't go through the portal, I'm not dressed for adventure.
