so in the aftermath of my tennis outing with dishi on saturday, my body is sore, especially my left ass. i don't know what about tennis makes an ass muscle hurt, but man, i definitely feel it in my ass when i bend over and stuff. it just goes to show you how out of shape i am.
i ate a lot of spaghetti for lunch today. i went back for seconds (for free, too!) even, which is something i've never done at lunch in the cafeteria. i guess i was in one of those moods where pasta was the perfect thing to eat.
i'm excited for tonight. why? because my beloved dallas cowboys are on monday night football! i hope they trash the redskins; they've won 7 out of the last 8 meetings, so i have high hopes for the team to do well.
four months sure passed by quickly. this wednesday, i'm getting my teeth cleaned. i hope it's not a painful bloody ordeal like it usually is. and i'm not looking forward to the guilt trip my dentist is going to give me for not flossing. sigh.
people are commenting on the depeche mode concert t-shirt i'm wearing today. this shirt is from the "songs of faith and devotion" tour of 1993 or so, which means my shirt is well over a decade old. it's a little worn, but it still wearable. the concert was during my sophomore year at college, and i remember that before we left, i went on a hike to the dish. and it got dark really quickly (more quickly than i had anticipated), so i had to make it back out of the place in pitch dark. it was sort of scary.
i wonder what it would be like to be buff. sure, i've had a few fantasies about hitting the gym and gaining some muscle mass. i mean, if i were lean and cut, i would look pretty good, right? especially since i'm tall? but man, i just have no desire to lift weights; i consider the practice a modern form of self-torture. a hundred years from now, they're going to unearth all the gyms and conclude that we were a species obsessed with hurting ourselves.
i had another panic attack friday night. i think i get them when i have prolonged exposure to social situations that make me uncomfortable. at least, that's the current theory. all i can say is, panic attacks fucking suck.
anyways, not much going on this monday. i want to win the lottery so i don't have to work. or at least, i wouldn't have to work at a job that i don't like. i'd probably go into teaching or something like that if money weren't an issue. although, i wonder if i have what it takes to be a teacher; the kids would probably make fun of me and my tourette's. hrmph.
and, thanks to dishi, today is officially "talk like a pirate day." no, i am completely serious. so with a loud *ARRRRRRR*, i bid you farewell.
so yeah, it was an easy breezy weekend for me.
friday night, i met up with nelson at pasta pomodoro, but we didn't want to wait the 20-25 minutes that they quoted us, so we just wound up dating nearby at chipotle. afterwards, nelson bought his evolution book at borders. i'm curious as to the read, but i am just to lazy to go through with it.
saturday, i didn't do much in the afternoon except my wonderful 3-hour nap. later, i met up with dishi at stanford to play an hour's worth of tennis. man, i am SORE today! that goes to show you how out of shape i am. afterwards, we met up with barden at gombei for a nice dinner.
sunday, i had lunch with jay in cupertino village. he loves roasted meats, so for a whopping $12 (at a chinese place, no less), he got roast pig AND roast duck. me, i got a simple wonton noodle soup. yum! after lunch, i stopped by ten ren and got a pearl milk tea before heading back home for my nap.
alan and i spontaneously watched _lord of war_ at 5:10 at mercado; it was an ok movie, but i wasn't too interested in the life of an arms dealer. we had burgers at taxi's afterwards across the parking lot. i got the messiest burger ever (mushroom swiss), and by the end of it, my hands were dripping with ketchup, mustard, and beef grease. ick.
i had a tummyache that night. it was painful, and it kept me up until midnight or so. i took a naked dump to clear some stuff out (my first and only dump of the weekend, for some reason, i'm not regular when i'm not in the office), and that helped.
anyways, that was it.
