hey people. i am dreading one of my work assignments. i have to an EXTREMELY hard ECO on a gate-level netlist. it's generated by MC (module compiler, this tool by synopsys), and it's basically a sea of a few thousand gates, and i have no fucking clue what's what (it's all arithmetic). and i don't know where to begin. eco's in general are tough, and i hate doing them, but this one is going to be a doozy, and that's a HUGE understatement. this might be one of the toughest things i'll have to do in my work career, ever.
it's been a slow day. i just got out of an hour-long meeting, and i had to take a leak during the whole thing. it felt good (almost orgasmically good) to finally piss, but i noticed a strange odor as i drained my bladder. i smelled sort of like black pepper. odd, huh?
oh, speaking of excreting stuff, i took a liquid dump after lunch today. sigh. i think it was the milk i drank last night with the bowl of cereal i had for dinner. but that's not the main surprise. what surprised me was that afterwards, i noticed that the toilet bowl was full of RED liquid. uh oh. am i bleeding out or something? what's with all the blood gathering up in my bowels? should i be worried?
i wet my pants today. no, i didn't piss all over myself, although it certainly looked like it. but i was holding a can of dr pepper in my hands, and i had a monstrous tic. i dropped the can, and it turned completely upside down. half of it spilled out all over my jeans. ick. i hate my tics. after wiping my crotch off, i had to go sit outside in the sun for a few minutes to dry it further. and even then, it was uncomfortable, having wet jeans dry against my legs and my genitals. yuck.
so is anybody watching _so you think you can dance_? i think lauren gottlieb is really cute. i'd do her. she's the one who helped out the choreographer last season, and she finally became old enough to audition for this year's show. i think that means she finally turned 18, so yeah, she's a little young for me, haha. but yeah, i think she's purty. she's got cheeks! and really neat eyebrows.
for the past week or so, i've been waking up every morning at 6am. not sure why. but it's nice to know (on weekdays) that i can get another four hours of sleep, so i just happily roll over and fall back into my happy slumber. lately, though, i've been getting bored in bed around 9:30 or so. by then, i've gotten enough sleep, but i have nothing to do, so i just lay there, snuggling in my blankets and stuff.
re: dehydration after basketball. yesterday, when i played, i had a bottle of gatorade beforehand, and during the course of my two games, i had another. is that not enough liquid? i know there are sugars in gatorade, but i thought the drink is supposed to be good for athletes. hm. maybe next time, i'll just have water.
*yawn* i'm ready to go home. i've been working later than usual this past week. anyways, have a great weekend folks!
