i sort of wimped out during basketball. during the first 3-on-3 game, my left knee was starting to hurt, so i played only one other game before calling it quits. by then, though, the knee had stopped hurting, but i just plain pansied out. oh well. i think it might be a good idea to stay off my knee, though, you know, just in case.
i don't remember if i said this, but my work buddy W introduced me to honey dijon kettle chips. i brought a brand new bag of it to work today, and i ate the entire thing by the time it was 2pm. that's *750* calories of fat-laden potato chips! arrrgh. i didn't have lunch though.
what is happening to the stock market? it's been going down for a while now. some of my investments (including my ESPP here at work), are still above water, but not by much. what's causing the tankjob? *ponder*
it's amazing how much i use my watch. now that the batteries died, i still keep finding myself looking at it to see what time it is. i know i have a cell phone that can function as a watch, but it's just too much of a pain to have to pull it out of my pockets, when all i really need to do is just look at my wrist. i think i'm going to leave work early and drive all the way to stanford shopping center to drop it off at the jewelers.
ting grilled me last night about J's impending visit. i guess it *is* sort of telling that i offered to pay for her plane ticket. hm. what expectations does that bring to the table? i just shrugged off most of her questions, because honestly, i don't know what's going to happen. for now, i just consider an old lost good friend that i finally got in touch with.
sometimes i find it amazing that my brother is in college. when i think of him, i still picture the little 8-10 year old tyke bouncing around. but now, he's only a few years away from being a real grownup with grownup issues! man, how times change.
i love my brother. even though i never talk to him, and i feel more like his uncle than anything, i love the dude. i've never said this to him, though. i guess you could say that our family isn't very affectionate. i sort of wish things were a bit different, because i really do love and miss my family. hopefully we can all get together this christmas break in dallas, pending my poor mom's health.
it sort of annoys me when a bunch of people get together for dinner, and some people order non-water drinks (meaning it costs more money), yet they don't pay extra when we split the bill up. that's a big pet peeve of mine, mostly because i rarely order anything that's not water, so i get hit with paying more than i should. *RAAR*
i crave red duck curry. hm. i wonder if the potato chips are wearing off, and i'm getting hungry now. in any case, i'm out. laters!
