Isn't it wierd when you notice something new about yourself? Today, I came to the realization that, while I love peanuts, I really don't like the smell of them when someone else is eating them. There was a guy eating peanuts next to me today and it was everything I could do to not hit him in the head with a frozen chicken to make him stop. Luckily:
1) I had no frozen chicken and
2) he didn't have a lot of peanuts.
Today I also noticed that the elevator in my hotel is manufactured by Otis. This kind of creeps me out because EVERY elevator is made by Otis. All it would take is for one rogue engineer at the Otis Elevator Company to program a hidden subroutine that causes all elevators to abruptly come crashing down at 11:11 UTC on December 21, 2012. Avoid elevators on that date.

I think even the elevators on the Death Star were manufactured by Otis.
I have discovered through taking public transportation that I hate the smell of other people.
I know what you mean about the Otis elevators. Every time I am in one, I can't get the silly Otis theme from "Superman" out of my head...."brrUMP da, dada. Dada,dada,dada da... brrUMP da, dada. Dada,dada, da daaa!"
I also remembered that "Otis" is the name of the axe used in the movie "Frailty".
Otis was also Mayberry's town drunk...think that one over while traveling to the 15th floor.
Today I learned that the smell of nailpolish while riding the bus at 7:30 am is not pleasant. Normally, nailpolish smell=good... on the morning bus, its just nauseating. There was a woman who looked JUST LIKE Angela Lansbury just working away on her nails. Then, right at the peak of my angry glaring, she turns around and gives me the nicest little Angela Lansbury smile... I felt like I had just given my grandma the evil eye.
Luckily, I work in a building with one floor and no basement. No Otis there. Note to self: Do not ride elevators on my 39th birthday.
