howdy y'all!
i got a lot of work on my plate these days. we're wrapping up one project, and i'm getting put on the next one with no break. sigh.
so it turns out that i have dinner plans with friends four days straight. last night was the grand wet burrito outing with adam, and tonight i'm having ryowa ramen with yuji. (i'd give you the link to his xanga, but he hasn't updated since august 1st. *RAAR*) and tomorrow is a farewell dinner at the faultline with my ex-coworker T, who is going back to taiwan the following day. oh, and friday is dinner with mallory and her parents. should be quaint.
so i saw my psych today. i'm dropping down on the haldol and upping the seroquel, which he said is probably not the reason why i'm getting backaches at night. so maybe it's my futon? yes, yes, i know i should fork over some cash to buy a *real* bed, but... oh well. today's backache was especially painful, btw.
so my right pinky nail is getting long. i'm using it constantly to scrape out my ear wax, and for whatever reason, the stuff from my right ear has a smell to it. (the wax from my left year has no odor.) you should see the small particles that i dig out. i'm still hoping for a grand slam and getting out a really big chunk of dark ear wax matter. those damn hyperactive sebaceous glands!
last night, i had one of those near panic attack episodes where everything i listened to on tv annoyed me. especially dick vitale's color commentary on the illinois/UNC college basketball game. luckily, it didn't last, probably quenched by the power of my 100mg of seroquel i take a night. this medication has caused me to get really good sleep for the past two months. i hope my body doesn't get addicted to it.
guess what? my toilet is still clogged from sunday's massive dump. i flush, and the water rises to a dangerous level before is *slowly* drains out. man, my apartment's toilets are just not built to handle me and my powerdumps. i think the pipes must be too thin or something.
referring to one of my comments about spending lots of money on cd's, i have to say that in the past 2 years, i've bought SIX cd's. yup. i've definitely toned down my music consumption, especially after i grew out of that lounge music phase. that was my last frenetic buying period, but now, i hardly ever buy new music, in stores or online. so THERE!
my heater is still broken. my place is so cold at night that i'm surprised i haven't caught pneumonia after taking showers. remember that i sleep naked, so at night, after my shower, i simply dry off and hop into bed. damn, it's chilly!
yesterday and the day before, my IE web browser at work was running totally slowly. it would take a long time for a page to load, so i consulted W, and he suggested that i clean out my spyware. it turns out that it *was* indeed all the spyware on my computer! it was pretty amazing how much that stuff stunts your computer's speed. the only question is: how did i get so much of that shit on my computer? i don't download anything... *ponder*
ok, it's time for my cigarette break. have a good hump day!
