4:45 p.m. CST: Ah, another line at the Apple Store (Southdale). This time they’re giving away t-shirts to commemorate the release of Leopard, unlike for the release of the iPhone. So I volunteered to come and get the office copies.

I got here with an hour and 15 minutes to go, and there were only eight people in line. Now, five minutes later, a whole two more people have come after me. Guess those 500 shirts will be plenty!

Hmm. I seem to be hungry. Also forgot the list of items I was going to photo search for while waiting. Guess I’ll have to play Text Twist instead.

5:02: Dearly wish I had a cup of coffee but didn’t bring any cash. Now 18 people in line, including me.

5:04: Great. The wife and fussing infant of the guy behind me just showed up.

5:13: Hey, that’s what I can do— I’ve been putting off finding an airfare.

5:23: 41 people. Bad news: Ow, my ass! Good news: Airfare is within range I was hoping for.

5:32: Rah rah speech by store employees. Sweet! The t-shirts actually come in M, L, and XL.

5:39: Okay, I’m bored. Short attention span today. I think I will post this and read The Rake magazine for the remaining 15 minutes.
