How annoying..

How is it possible that a crew of three workers take more than two weeks to paint my place? I wish my apartment was that big that it justified them taking so long but given the same amount of time, a paintbrush and a few gallons of paint, I would have single handedly finished the job already. Anyway they have finished with inside which is no longer boring white(thank you) but a "Almond blossom" according to the paint can or light yellow according to a straight man. I notice they have painted over the black wooden decorative finishes on the outside walls of the ghetto penthouse with this same color and have uglified the place imho.

Now almost every day I come home I see them tinkering about the place painting something, I'm sure nobody likes to come home and be haunted by the smell of oil paint. Anyway at some point in time I bought a bottle of febreze... whats the deal with it? I feel totally tricked by the commercials that got the best of my curiosity. Well at least if the paint smell starts sticking to my curtains or other stuff hopefully it will sort it out.

School has started back and the long lines of traffic picked up right where they left off. I was enjoying the past few weeks of cruising to work and back home in a few minutes, this will no longer be possible until summer or something else changes. Those changes specifically being me changing offices, yup I am finally leaving downtown and moving on up to.. uptown. On the topic of annoying I sat in 50+ meetings while planning this move which has been in the making for over 12 months now. I'm just glad I didn't have to chair any of those meetings. I am however looking forward to after the move, this other location shrinks my daily commute time to 10 mins to and from work in peak traffic :D. For y'all who like pictures these are some I found on my pc that I snapped from out of the windows of my soon to be x-office. My ode to downtown:

Kingston public hospital and the post central sorting office, I think all mail passes through here.

it

A few weeks back I was up late one night using my computer and I had a little 2.5" portable TV on my desk playing in the background. I was vaguely paying attention to it but was hearing some of the words: "If you have it, you don't need it. If you need it, you don't have it. If you have it, you need more of it."...

After a while I started to wonder what the 'it' really was only to hear him end with: "if you've never had any of it, ever, people just seem to know"

I looked it up online that night, nada, apparently it was a brand new commercial and there wasn't much buzz about it yet. I remembered this morning and decided to look it up again and it was all over the place :) My question is what is your initial interpretation of this 'it' he speaks of? I know I was completely off.
