hello. i've spent the afternoon wrestling with synthesis scripts, and let me tell you, it ain't no fun.
i was e-mailing my friend about sushi (among other topics), and it reminded me that i haven't had sushi in a long long time. so for lunch, my coworker A and i went to sushi o sushi for lunch. i was a little reluctant at first (because their stuff is expensive), but i was definitely glad i went. i had their spicy tuna (not so good), california rolls, and unagi nigiri. it's hard to fuck up california rolls (although you can do it by adding too much cucumber), and unagi is always good. spicy tuna varies from place to place, and i still like miyake's the best.
so it until i IM'ed cindy that i realized valentine's day is coming up. hehe. i've been single for so long that i forgot what a big deal vday is. isn't that sad? anyways, i'm sort of glad that i'm single because vday is such a load of bullshit. why pick this arbitrary day to show some extra effection when every day should be like that? phooey on saint valentine, i spit in his general direction. *phtooey*
i'm taping _the OC_ tonight. i have a conflicting tv schedule, as the stanford/cal game is also tonight. i am a bit nervous, because cal's pretty good, and it's also a road game. and i wonder if the team is looking ahead to saturday's showdown with gonzaga. man, that has the potential of being an ugly game, as gonzaga is the #5 team in the nation. their adam morrison is a BEAST.
i've been embroiled in a mystery in my bed. i use three layers of blankets, and every night, before i settle in, i make sure they're stacked nicely on top of each other. but in the last two nights, i've managed to kick away the *middle* layer. how does that happen? *ponder*
so instead of having dinner tonight, alan and ting pre-empted me by having dinner with me last night. he called me right after i finished my nightly bowl of cereal, but i still went to queen house with them because i wanted to see them. i had twelve shrimp/pork/leeks dumplings, which took a hell of a long time to be prepared. and after that, i downed a roasted barley pearl milk tea. i was totally stuffed, and my stomach was popping out. so to make up for eating so much yesterday, i had sushi today, and i don't plan on having any dinner. maybe just an ice cream sandwich or something.
i'm getting fat. it's worrying me.
for lunch today, A and i had to share a table with two other people. it was really uncomfortable, because we could easily hear their conversation. it reminded me of my first speed-dating experience, where two couples would sometimes share a table for four. i thought it was highly distracting.
yeah, i'm done with speed dating. i've done it three times, and nothing ever happened. i mean, i did match with some girls, but they either turned out to be busts, or they never wrote back. *RAAR*
i tried to take a dump today (i didn't have one yesterday). i went and sat on the toilet and pushed and pushed, and i couldn't tell if anything was coming out. but i wiped my ass anyway, and when i did it, i felt a little bump. it was like a mini-turd was almost coming out! but, i felt lazy (didn't want to push), so i just poked the turd back into my sphincter and left.
ok, that's it for me. have a good thursday! one more workday to go! *huzzah*
