i'm usually good about checking if i have everything in my pockets: keys, xanax, cigarettes, lighter, cell phone, and wallet. but during my burrito dinner last night with alan at la bamba, i didn't notice that i had left my wallet at the place.
so i got a call at around 10pm from my psychiatrist (!). it turns out that the folks at la bamba found my appointment slip and called them to get in contact with me. pretty clever, i must say.
anyways, i picked up my trusty wallet at la bamba this morning. i checked that everything was there (credit cards and cash), and i went off to work. *phew* lost wallets are a huge pain in the ass, second to losing keys. i am lucky that i got my wallet back. :) and now, i'll be as paranoid as ever.
damn, ryan got screwed in last night's _so you think you can dance_. first, the foxtrot, and second, lyrical jazz. fyi, he's an incredible breakdancer, but i guess he's not very versatile in other flavors of dance. so i guess what i'm saying is that he doesn't deserve to win, but man, he is fun to watch on the floor when he's breakin' away.
so the television season starts today! yup, tonight's the season premiere of _the OC_, and i am excited. it'll be like seeing good friends again. and on top of that, the NFL season kicks off tonight with a special thursday game featuring the raiders and the patriots. i'm not sure to root for, since i like both teams. but it'll be good to see real NFL (without the scrubs) once again.
i've been pretty regularly lately. despite not having taken a dump today, i usually feel one coming on at 11am or so, right after i have my second cigarette of the day.
a whole bunch of us got dragged into a meeting today at around 11. man, that was a waste of time, and it wasn't just me who thought that. it was a meeting about how to review code. in the example the person gave, the review group found SIXTY-EIGHT errors in the code. who the hell has 68 bugs?! that's some pretty poorly written crap!
people were looking to have lunch with me today. unfortunately, i missed two such requests. why? because there was tuna casserole downstairs in the company cafetiria! i LOVE tuna casserole, and it was pretty good today. sigh. i remember when i was a kid my mom used to make it. that was some good shit, made with love.
i miss my family. i know i don't say that very much at all, but i love my parents and brother. i just don't see them enough. they might go back to dallas (they're in taiwan right now) for christmas, so if they're there, then i'm flying back.
i've been yawning non-stop. i don't know what it is that makes lunches so sleep-inducing, but man, i need a siesta.
fyi, i got into another one of my easy-irritable-by-tv moods last night. i'm not sure what causes this, but luckily i have xanax to take to calm me down. oh, and by the way, did anybody see the agassi/blake tennis match last night? holy shit that was good stuff! :)
