Thursday
FOUND by Laura Martin
in Santa Monica, California
I found this rather cryptic to-do list in the alley behind my apartment building; there are always little whirlwinds of interesting debris out there. The back of the list has part of a computer print-out of this person's bank account, which had $50,860.92 and then shows a withdrawal of $49,753.42 - perhaps because he or she was "sailing off?"
I like to imagine it as a to-do-before-leaving-town-for-good list: give away pet lizards, give that relationship a final "infusion" before long distance sets in, that one last workout, then setting sail...

We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
This reminded me of the Bad Brains song, "Sailin' On".
was she planning on making an escape by sailboat after court? i love notes like these...it's like WTF!!!!
Leave exactly $1107.50? Whats with the fifty cents?
EFT Boat payment? Checks written before sailing?
I love that the lizards are his/her first priority
This reminds me of a lizard loving friend who sailed around the world last year. You do empty your bank account if you know you won't be near a bank! And you would leave some money there to keep it open and meet any bills that crop up while you're gone.
What intrigues me is "infuse relationship." Life is not a cup of tea, eh?
Transcript 1 (night) and After Court sound like this person is a court reporter. Rhonna, was this you??
"crewing up" must be a sailing reference but i am now duty bound to use it at least once a day - "this friday i'm going to crew up and go out for drinks".
ry: let's meet for tequila shots in Bristol
This person obviously had access to the company accounts and cleaned them out. And before they get one last quick one from their significant other and sail off to some island where they can't be expedited, they're going to get lizards. Lots and lots of lizards! Bwahahahaha!
Draft running order for one day's film shoot (seven scenes)?
Hence 'crewing up' and 'sailing off' rather than 'crew up' and 'sail off' which is what you would put on a To-Do list?
But then I can't guess what the 'Infuse relationship' and 'Transcrip#1' scenes would be. Or how the lizards get into the story. Or quite how 'Gym' and 'Court' fit in.
This website makes my to-do lists look really boring.
Sailing off, court, crewing up, "infuse relationship"...That's a hell of a lot going on for single Thursday.
Looking at it, it almost looks like a set list ( a list you make of your songs and the order you play them in.) Also arguing that they took out a large some of money makes me believe that they had made that money by selling their merchandise.
Reminds me of a Futurama ep when Fry has a choice of buying Leela a parrot, or 500 stink lizards. "Oh Leela! I am going to buy you SO MANY lizards!"
I wanna join Ry and Amused for drinks, while listening to Bad Brains.
