i'm really frustrated with work right now. i wrote this block many years ago, and now i'm supporting it. and it seems that the protocol has changed a lot, so much so that it's getting hard to find workarounds. earlier, it was just about shuffling around bits in different places, but now the current problem is way more complicated than that. i'm not sure if i can even figure out how to do it. hence the frustration.
after watching last night's _american idol_, i have to put my foot down. *stomp* brenna gethers has GOT TO GO. she has such an ego and attitude that makes her completely unlikeable. what a bitch. *fumes* i did vote, though. i called in once for katharine mcphee, and again for kellie pickler. and what do you know, they're like roommates and best friends!
and does anyone else think that kinnik sky is scary looking? i think it's her lips; her mouth is way too big for her face. yeah. scary.
since i take shits every weekday, i have to clean my asshole well. i get a lot of soap in my asscrack, but the problem is, sometimes i forget to rinse it out. so, after i get out of the shower, i've got suds in my ass. and when i wipe it with my fingers and smell it, it's like a weird mix of fresh soap sprinkled with nasty wet shit particles. ick. i've got to remember to rinse my sphincter!
i wrote a little C program today. it's been years since i've written anything in C, so i had to look up man pages and stuff for functions in strcat or fopen. i used to be pretty good at writing in C, but it's been too long.
the other day, my boss (who's very on edge all the time) told me that he wants the "old dardy" back. now, the old dardy would have worked late, worked weekends, and been a general wrecking ball of good engineering force, but i stopped being like that. after a few nervous breakdowns back in the late 90's at my first job, i realized that i can't work like a madman. i've learned to take it easy. perhaps too easy. oh well. at least i have my sanity.
oh. so i tried shanghai classic today with three other coworkers. the steamed juicy dumplings were pretty good. it was meatier than HC, but had less juice. and yeah, i had the "da do miao" vegetables, and while they were good, they cost $10. $10 for a simple vegetable dish? that's too pricey. one of my coworkers ordered two large dessert dishes, so that pushed the price of lunch up to $15 a person. a little to much for my taste. although one of these days, i'm going to get two orders of shao long bao and eat it all myself. no sharing!
and yes, like my commenter said, there's a (cute) girl in the corner making the dumplings nonstop. i didn't think she was that cute, though. she looked rather plain to me, and yes, she did have pigtails. and she had a chef's hat on, which looked sort of stupid.
ok, that's all i have for today. take it easy out there.
