the euphoria is over

not much to write about today. i seem to have missed our regular third thursday ice cream social, and i'm sort of bummed. i missed the e-mail about it, and no one came to get me. *RAAR* i wanted ice cream!

i'm trying to gain weight these days. 155 is too low for me, and i want to be 160+ by next week. ice cream would have helped, but then again, so does not skipping meals, which i am prone to do. eating is such a chore these days, especially because i usually eat alone during dinner.

but! last night i had dinner with adam. it was good seeing him again, long hair and all. we grabbed ramen at maruichi (which i've decided it sucks) and then took a walk down castro.

i was unusually happy yesterday, but by now, the euphoria has faded. i'm starting to stress over my tics a bit more, and that worries me. it just means that i'm reverting to my old, anxiety-laden self.

i think i'm gonna get a haircut today. rest up at home and watch _the OC_ before i retire to bed. sleep is still sucking; i mean, i'm in bed for over 13 hours, but i actually only get about 8 hours of sleep! yep, the rest of the time is spent tossing and turning because of the damn early sunrise and daylight.

i need to shave, too. or rather, buy a new shaver. i think my old one broke while in transit during the europe trip, and it leaks shaven hairs all over the place, making this black-fuzzed area on my bathroom sink. ewww. can anyone recommend a good electric shaver? norelco? braun?

i want to win the lottery so i can get out of this so-called "career." i am very down on chip design right now, but i don't know what else i can transition to painlessly (which means not involving more schooling).

but anyways, i'm clockwatching right now, and sooner or later, i'm leaving the office. and tomorrow's friday! yippee! i hope to be more social this weekend, but we'll see what comes up. tentatively i have a meeting with orkut girl and maybe some activities with mike, who i haven't seen in a while. that should be fun.

i haven't taken a picture in a very long time, huh? it's like i've completely lost the passion for capturing things on (digital) film. i guess there's nothing inspiring in my life to take a picture of, either, so my three digital cameras just sit on my desk idling by, poor things.

the problem with leaving work early is that i wind grabbing dinner early too (on my way home). and since i'm not hungry, eating dinner is even more of a chore. i just don't love food the way i used to. food is just a necessary evil for me these days, and it really shouldn't be that way.

ok, i'm out in a few. toodles!
