monday blues

my memory is failing me. and i'm frustrated. i feel like my brain can be very snappy, but instead, it just sputters and putzes out. SO aggravating! it's like trying to run through a pool of molasses.

the next place i live must have air conditioning, i've decided. last night, it was yet another scorcher, and i tossed and turned until about 1am before i finally fell asleep. *RAAR* (i do have a fan, but it's very loud.)

sigh. another monday. the upcoming week looks long, especially given how i sort of wasted my weekend without doing much of anything good.

so how old were you when you first discovered a gray hair? i had some already back in high school, and now, my hair is peppered all over the place with specks of gray. it's genetic, and i remember getting paid a nickel for every hair i plucked from my parents when they were around my age.

i have a relentless desire to pluck hair. i used to spend hours in front of the mirror plucking my chin hairs (rather than shaving them like a normal person). nowadays, i just pluck my cheek and nose and nipple hairs. k2 gave me this personal hygiene set from nordstrom for one of my birthdays, and it came with these really good tweezers. ah, tweezers. (by the way, the sharper image also sells a good one, one that's diamond-coated at the tips for extra grip. i've tried it, and it rocks!)

i've noticed how some guys are really bashful at peeing in public. for example, just now, i went to go take a leak, and the urinal next to me was open. in came a co-worker, and instead of using the unoccupied urinal, he went into the stall to go do his business. hm. bashful! what is up with that? (i know he wasn't in there to take a dump because his feet were facing the toilet the whole time.)

has anybody heard NIN's latest album? is it any good? i was a huge fan of his earlier work. i also own _the fragile_, but it got stolen before i had a chance to listen to it. but that one song trent does on the radio these days, "the hand that feeds," isn't very good, imho.

man, this blog entry is just like the dump i took today: long and painful, with a lot of straining. so i'll just cut it short today. hopefully tomorrow i'll have more to say.

pinnacle of pathetic

wow, i really didn't have a good weekend. i have got to do something about my laziness.

friday night, we met up at tomatina once again for a quick dinner before a movie at the AMC mercado. this time, it was _fantastic four_, which didn't suck as much as i thought it would. i guess i had low expectations, so i just took in the movie without my judgment. and jessica alba is pretty fucking hot.

saturday was the worst way to spend a free day. get this: i wake up at 1pm, take a nap from 3 to 5pm, skipped dinner (i had a bowl of cereal the entire day), and went to bed at 8. pretty bad, huh?

sunday was more of the same, but at least i got out to meet a few people for dinner at the cheesecake factory. that place is expensive! i got the spicy chicken chipotle pasta for $14.50, and a slice of banana cream cheesecake for $6.50. throw in a few bucks for the fried calamari appetizer, and it was a $30 meal! sheeeiiit...

anyways, that's for my weekend update. i hope next weekend turns out better.
