today, at the urinal, the guy next to me was peeing with no hands. he was just sitting back, enjoying himself. it looked like he was having a fabulous time. however, i didn't know if i could do that. i always have my right hand on my pants and my left hand on my schlong. but 15 minutes ago, i tried it. i made sure my pants wouldn't fall down, and i started peeing and got the stream in the middle of the bowl, and then i let go. but then, my johnson dropped, and the right flap of my jeans flipped up, and i almost wound up pissing all over my pants. so i immediately went back to my normal hand positions to stabilize myself. i guess i just can't pee freely like that guy. (i even hold myself when i take a leak in the shower.)
it's been a long day of gate simulations. it took me several hours just to get the damn thing to compile. i ran into all sorts of problems, and after the thing ran through, i had 18,200+ modules to link. the compiler choked on it. ha! now, i have X's violating a one-hot assertion that causes the simulation to stop. man, gate sims suck. my coworker D is already done with his, and i'm totally jealous of him.
today, i have hung out with/am hanging out with two jennifer's. the first one, jenC, is a friend of mine from college. we had vietnamese food at pho hoa for lunch. she just got out of a 6-mile run right before we met up, so she wasn't hungry, so she just ate three large spring rolls. she's been back here for many months now, but she still hasn't found a job. (she does product marketing in the consumer area.) i worry for her. we're thinking of going up to the city next monday to see our mutual friend helen sing. i don't know if i can go (after all, it's a work night), but helen really needs support, so i think i *should* go.
and tonight, i'm going shopping with jennie. i wanted to see _he's just not that into you_ with her, but she needs some retail therapy. i've already set my VCR to tape _AI_, which, by the way, was, for the most part, horrible. that stevie girl was by far the worst. her voice cracked, and she just gave a dreadful performance. people picked the worst songs. i did vote for three people, though: alexis grace (cutie!), anoop dogg, and danny gokey. i'm pretty sure danny will go through among the guys because his line was busy for the longest time. tatiana was *almost* bearable. she was actually really chill, but she blew it at the end where she just blurted out before the commercial break, "please vote for me. it's my dream." UGH. she sang decently, though, i was surprised.
i'm sucking on a werther's original candy right now. i used to LOVE this shit. in college, one year, i was addicted to this stuff, and i would buy a whole bag of this candy and go to town on it. it's just so tasty and rich. both jenC and i got one at pho hoa, and since i only have one, i'm really trying to savor it. back when i had a large supply of them, i used to crunch them with my teeth, and then go on to the next one. k1 knew me as a lover of this candy, so after we broke up, i drove by her house (parent's house) and left a bag of werther's on her doorstep.
how do parents of twins tell the newborns apart? as they get older, they become more distinguishable, but as newborns, i think it'd be really hard to differentiate the two. i can't even begin to fathom triplets all way to octuplets or something. i went over to jessica's place this past saturday night, and she has twin daughters. they're super cute. by the end of the night, i could sort of tell which one was which, but only when the two of them were side by side. edric told me a hint (look at the cheeks), but of course, i needed the two of them to tell the difference.
what's funny is that when i was 4, i was in kindergarten, and there was this pair of japanese twins, kay and kathy. even at that age, i was interested in girls, and i thought kathy was way cuter. kathy was actually the first girl i liked in my life. (this was in the age of girls having cooties, so i dared not admit this to another soul.) but a few years ago, i found a picture of our kindergarten class, and i looked at the two of them, and i could not, for the life of me, tell them apart! ha! i wonder where kathy is now. a few years ago, i tried googling her (i know her last name), and i found one girl who matched that worked at intel in some other state. i e-mailed her, but it wasn't her. that girl was amazed that there was another kathy xxx (it's not a common last name), not to mention one that had a twin sister. i wonder if she's still cute.
there are quite a few girls that i know who were cute when they were young, but are no longer attractive. age has a way of destroying beauty, i suppose. i wonder how i will deal with that fact when i get married, and my wife gets old and wrinkly.
is obama going to drive our country to bankruptcy?
i need to do my taxes. i looked at my paycheck today, and i get about 40% of my gross earnings after all of my deductions (federal taxes, state taxes, 401(k), ESPP, medical insurance, etc.) man, that's not much.
i made a huge mistake of taking this oasis ringtone quiz on facebook. i thought i knew oasis well, so i took the quiz, and i scored a 60%. then, i clicked on a link to get a free oasis ringtone. i should have known better than to give out my cell phone number. now, i'm getting text message spam on my phone. FUCK FUCK FUCK. and i can't stop it. how do i stop it? there's no way, right? god damnit. they BETTER not spam me when i'm sleeping.
ok. the dude is back to debug stuff with me. i gotta go.
