man, i've been swamped with work today. i'm an hour late for my scheduled blog entry, so i apologize to those of you who were waiting for me to post.
i haven't taken a dump in three days. starting to get worried.
my nailbiting schedule has been off kilter. usually, i trim my nails on mondays, but i sat through some really boring meetings last week (on non-mondays), so my nails haven't grown out enough for me to bite.
are there calories in fingernails? *ponder*
has anyone out there tried taco bell's crunch wrap supreme? on paper, it looks good, but i just haven't felt compelled to try it out. it looks big, though. and filling.
i'm wearing my roots t-shirt that jay and margaret got for me in park city. it's brown, with black and white lettering. and it's also tagless, which is good because sometimes the tags scratch the back of my neck and irritate.
recently, a lot of my friends have gotten dogs. i like dogs, and i'd considering getting one, except for one thing: i can't stand to pick up the dog's poo. it really grosses me out, so i'd have to hire a dogwalker or something so i don't have to deal with the shit (literally).
so it looks like james blunt is getting popular and more mainstream. i like his song "you're beautiful," though i haven't heard the song in its entirety yet. i usually catch the last half of the song on the radio; it's a sad song, but i can totally relate to it. it's about unrequited love. ah. the anguish!
i bumped into cwg on the elevator today. she doesn't look that good anymore. i mean, last year, about this time, i was totally obsessed with her, and i just thought she was so cute and stuff. but now, i'm just like, "meh." it's amazing how affection can create attraction. and it worries me that i can't be objective about rating a girl's looks.
i've been behind on watching movies. i blame it partly on being single, because in a couple, you always have a movie buddy. i also blame myself for being lazy, but then again, there haven't been many movies that i really wanted to see. maybe stuff like _wedding crashers_ and _brokeback mountain_. but anyways, i haven't seen a movie in months.
ok, this post is less than inspired. sorry. i just have a lot of work stuff on my mind.
so friday night, i tried calling all these people for dinner, but people either had plans or weren't available. sigh. so i wound up calling it a night and sulking up in bed around 8pm.
saturday, i met up with nelson for some brunch at original house of pancakes in cupertino. we both got omelettes, but while they were big (and fluffy) and filling, they just didn't taste very good. i got the spanish omelette, and the sauce tasted like chinese medicine. VERY un-tasty.
afterwards, we headed over to greg's place to watch the dogs play. buddy, tachi, and spike put on a show as they wrestled and chased and stuff. and in the meantime, we watched _reservoir dogs_, and i was reminded of how brilliant the move was. i remember disliking the movie at first because i expected a lot of action, but the dialogue is just awesome. by the way, what is quentin tarantino up to these days?
i went home to catch and stanford vs. oregon state game. we led throughout, and there was a time when we led by like 17 points, but OSU cut it to 3 in the second half. too close to be comfortable. but in the end, we pulled off the win, despite not having matt haryasz, whose left eye was swollen shut due to getting slapped in the eyeball by another player. i hope he heals up for this week.
after the game, i headed to downtown palo alto to have chinese food at jing jing's with dj. it was fun catching up with him, although sometimes i think he's too intellectual for me.
sunday, i woke up around 12:30 and drove to safeway to get some snacks for the big game. surprisingly, safeway wasn't that crowded, and it wasn't all men. maybe i got there too early. anyways, i got two bags of honey dijon kettle chips and an 8-pack of cool blue gatorade (the BEST flavor, aside from arctic snow or whatever it was called).
the kickoff wasn't until 3pm, so i watched two of the most adorable performances by an actress. the first character was cher by alicia silverstone (_clueless_), and the second was laney by rachael leigh cook (_she's all that_). i would do either character in a heartbeat, especially laney. rachael leigh cook is soooo cute!
around 3 or so, barden and dishi showed up, and we watched the game and drank root beer and snacked. i thought the game was pretty boring, and seattle just couldn't execute. it was kind of disappointing. and the ads weren't very memorable, either. so all in all, i thought the experience was sort of lame.
after it was over, we headed to gombei for dinner (always good), and that was it for my weekend.
