so i deviated from my usual at spice islands today. C and i went there for lunch, and i decided to get something different from my standard chow kueh teow (with no bean sprouts). i got the singaporean vermicelli instead, and it wasn't very good. sigh. i've had bad luck with ordering new dishes from what's tried and true, so that teaches me a lesson.
so tonight's a big game: stanford vs. #25 USC. and as it happens, both _the office_ and _scrubs_ are repeats, so i'll tape _the OC_ and watch the game wtihout any distractions. i hope we win! go cardinal! also, in the morning and part of the afternoon, a picture of stanford's lawrence hill was on the front page of espn.com. we're getting press! unfortunately, we're not in the tournament in joe lunardi's current bracketology, but hopefully we'll play well enough down the stretch to make into this year's NCAA tourney. *crosses fingers*
so i have a question for all you _american idol_ buffs. so in every city, thousands and thousands of people turn out for the auditions. but only a fraction of them make it to the judges. so who determines who gets to audition in front of randy, simon and paula? there must be an intermediary judging process, right? can someone enlighten me on this?
i feel guilty today. i was all set to play basketball today, but i bailed at the last minute and went to have lunch with C instead. i know my new year's resolution was to get exercise, but so far, it's almost the end of january, and i've only made it out to the courts once. i know i desperately need to get some cardio action, with my lazy lifestyle and all the smoking and stuff. ok, next week. i promise!
i love sleep. i've been sleeping very well latey. do you guys have a preferred side when you sleep? i can only fall sleep on my right side. when i go to bed, i lounge around on my left side a bit while i listen to sportscenter. i catch up on the latest sports news and such for a bit, and when i'm all good and ready to get some shuteye, i roll over, hug my pillow, and within half an hour or so, i'm conked out. it's great.
the problem is, though, is that i'm still 100% dependent on my seroquel for sleep. i haven't tried not taking it, though. the last time i purposely didn't take seroquel, i wound up lying in bed for like FIVE hours, unable to fall asleep. it was horrible. my psych told me buy a pill cutter and take half of a pill and stuff to wean me off of it, but i haven't gone out and bought it yet. and where do i buy a pill cutter anyway?
i'm getting a massage today. i can't wait. they feel really good, but i wish i could enjoy them more. what i mean is that my mind wanders on all sorts of random topics when i'm getting a massage, and i wish i could really focus in on how good they feel instead of thinking about other stuff.
ok. time for a smoke, and i'm off soon.
