boy, do i feel sick today. we went to e-noodle in milpitas for lunch, and i was very excited to get my leek boxes. however, they made them VERY greasy today, and after eating all three of them, i felt like puking afterwards. even now, i feel pretty queasy. ick.
so last night's stanford/USC basketball game was awesome. brook lopez had an amazing game, recording a triple double with 18 points, 11 rebounds, and TWELVE blocks. fucking amazing! now, it's onto UCLA on sunday night, and i'll be in the stands cheering for the cardinal.
so a stanford grad student went missing a few days ago, and they apparently found her body in the trunk of her car in santa rosa. the police say that signs point to a suicide. that's very sad. this girl was very bright, from MIT, and she passed her qual's and all that. sigh. poor girl, i wonder what made her want to kill herself.
i still feel like puking. i used to throw up a lot; it made me feel a lot better whenever i felt nauseated. did you know that i can yack on demand? i don't need to stick my finger down my throat or anything; all i need is to heave a few times, and i can puke. i will always remember being in japan and demonstrating it after dinner (russian food) for my friend dj, and both of us laughing our asses off afterwards. yes, i am proud of this talent.
so my boss wants us in by 9:30 on monday mornings. i am not very happy with this. i get in at 10:30, and this means i get one hour less sleep on sunday nights. rats. the reason he wants us in is because he needs us on standby during a 9:30 staff meeting just in case he wants to call one of us in for an update.
has there ever been a quadruple double in basketball before? i know there's been tons of triple doubles before, most commonly points, rebounds and assists. but a quadruple double would be quite an achievement.
alan tried really hard this week to get us stanford peeps together. unfortunately, it fell through because none of us could figure out a time when we were all free. the problem is that some of us have kids and family around and stuff like that. i wonder when the bowling gang will be like that; so far, none of us have kids, so we're all fairly flexible and free at this point in our lives, so hanging out has been pretty easy.
i think my tics have given me a concussion or something. my head throbs when i tic, and i have a constant headache. every night, before i go to sleep, i've been taking 2 advil gelcaps. ugh. *RAAR*
ok. time for a smoke. have a great weekend folks!
