Highlighters rule
What did we do before the highlighter pen? Oh wait, I remember because I grew up in antique educationville... North Wales. We used to underline important words in red ink. That said, we also used fountain pens with ink. I'm not kidding.The reason that has got me thinking about our blessed flourescant friends is a scene from earlier today. Imagine, I work for Starbucks. I'm bussing tables and cleaning up after the filthy rich. I look over and there's a group of Prada ladies. I suppose they where ladies because they had purses and pointy shoes. In my world, that makes you a lady. They all had highlighters in hand and of course I got closer so that I could spy.
The Toronto International Film Festival is a week away. This time next week I could be flying high with happy success and execution, or wondering what just happened. There's a large marketing event a block down from my store that will be attracting a lot of, lets say important people. Ok, so there's the background story.
The ladies with their nails were somehow holding the highlighter pens and full on debating which films they were going to see during the 10 day festival. They had different colours for different ranking of preference. Which led me to this question: Are wealthy people wealthy because they are very organized and have mild obsessive compulsive disorder; or did the money make them that way?
My favourite colour highlighters are yellow, green, orange and blue. Never pink.
