skipping mondays

anyways, i am glad it's already tuesday. 4-day workweeks are good things; they make me very happy.

i've been hitting the sack earlier and earlier. not that i am sleeping that much more, but i've just been taking my nightly shower and getting into bed before 8 sometimes. but instead of going to sleep, i've been watching my shows in bed, naked. naked tv watching is nice! although in the position i'm in, my neck hurts after craning it to see the small 13" television in my room.

so i saw last night's _american idol_. it was the guys' turn to sing. of the 12 guys, not one of them appealed to me, not in the way john stevens made me smile. i hope there's at least one good girl tonight, or else i'm going to stop watching the show.

i need to shave. i keep licking my mustache and foodsaver stubs, and it feels like somebody slobbered all over me.

my tics are getting pretty bad these days. when i sleep, my muscles tighten up to the point there it hurts to turn or tilt my head in the mornings. *RAAR* i don't know what else i can do, aside from upping my medication. sigh. be glad you people out there don't have tourette's! it really sucks.

i need to do my taxes. i'm fretting over my satellite radio stocks (XMSR and SIRI) because they've both gone up quite a bit since i bought them. *sigh* it's always tough to know when to sell. i mean, do you keep on waiting for them to go higher, but then again, if you do, what happens if they keep dropping? when do you cut it loose? yes, greed is a big factor. greed and hope.

i crave pizza. the last time i had it was when a group of us went to pizza chicago, and nelson ordered this "great chicago fire" flavor that was awesome. it had cilantro (which i picked off), garlic, hot peppers and sausage. yum. that was some good shit. maybe one of these days i'll splurge and get a whole pizza for myself.

oh. i went to pasta pomodoro for some takeout last night, and the sad news is that they don't carry the gemelli anymore! i mean, they have the same dish, but with rigatoni instead of the corkscrew pasta, but the pasta itself was part of the reason why it was so damn good! (i think the latter type of pasta traps the sauce better, thus more taste.) sigh. the end of an era.

these days, i've been craving certain foods. it's like i'm pregnant or something.

ok, that's it for today. toodles!

tapering off

the weekend started off well, but then it got really boring. let's see here...

friday night, i met up with ting and alan at queen house for some dinner, and then it was off to see _ong bak_, this thai martial arts movie. the action was pretty good, and i was impressed to later find out that they didn't use any special effects or wires. flying knees and flying elbows! i kept on thinking of sagat from the street fighter videogame series.

then, i met up with jay and margaret on sunday to check out their new house and try out a new vietnamese place. i was really excited that they carried vietnamese sandwiches, and they were only $1.95!

afterwards, i drove to barden's place to meet dishi and kara. we putzed around for a while, watching the maryland/virginia basketball game go to double overtime, and then we went to the rec room and played some pingpong. then, we hit the bowling alley, where i bowled a measly 124. i guess i'm rusty. and we had dinner at gombei. yum. chicken katsu curry!

sunday, i woke up to catch the stanford/ucla game. it was a good win for us, but the bad news was that from then on, i wouldn't see any real live people. i took a nap on the futon and then went to alan's place for 10 minutes to drop off his mail. he was suffering from a bad headache, and thus couldn't entertain, so i left him alone and drove home and slept after grabbing some poo (that's jun pad poo) at krung thai restaurant.

monday, i went to stanford campus and just walked around after getting a jamba juice. then i went to stanford mall, but didn't buy anything. i'm just not in a shopping mood these days. i went home, took another nap, and finished off the night watching american idol and, of course, sportscenter. and that was it for my weekend.
