support our troops

I just found out that a good friend from college will be shipped of to Iraq in less than 2 months.

Please pray for Yul and his safe return.

long hair

This past week's heat has made me want one thing: short hair

While I realize that there are many benefits for long hair, I'm still wanting it short again. While taking a break, it felt like something was crawling on my arm. I looked to see that it was my hair. WTF?

At least it's not long enough to have hair murphs out of the shower.

*Sigh* I need some A/C right now. It doesn't help that I'm totally full from lunch.

PSA

PEOPLE NEED TO STOP USING CRACK.

Seriously folks, it's gettin' out of hand here. While I have come to terms with the fact that there are stupid people out there, crack does not help the cause.

Example #1: Using coins for major purchases.

I'm one of those lucky people who get to stand behind them in line with one item, while they are buying groceries for a family of 20 with a big ass jar of quarters. At least have them pre-rolled to make the transaction go quicker.

Example #2: Asking every question humanly possible about what a food item is made with.

You've just upped your chances of getting your food spit in...and not by the server.

Example #3: "I know I'm not calling the right place, but maybe you could help me."

And maybe hell will freeze over as we watch pigs fly over our heads and monkeys out of my ass.

Hurry up weekend...I'm waiting for your ass!

bornday

Welcome to the world

BABY GIRL RENTAR!

fruit

Who knew strawberries and pineapple would be quite refreshing on a hot summer day such as this one?

It's 4:30pm. I'm SOOOO READY to go home. I could leave early...I had to drop my boss off at the BART station. Hmm...decisions, decisions.

Why can't motivation to work out be the same as motivation to eat ice cream? One of the many wonders of the world...

I still hate it when ugly girls try to act cute. Ugh. What I hate more than that is when ugly girls think they're cute. Hello Cleopatra...Queen of Denial.

rest

I'm tired of being...
...patient
...understanding
...misunderstood
...taken for granted
...lonely
...a good fiancee
...angry
...quiet

...me.

fuck the bullshit

Hanging out with my boys on Saturday made me realize that many of the people I hang out with on a regular basis I met through Byron.

I still feel really lonely a lot of the time and I don't really know why.

me is smart

I'm reading my old posts and my grammar sucks ass. I don't know if it's because I'm typing too fast, I'm not in school and haven't been for the past 4 years, or I'm just not proofreading as well as I should.

Eh...I don't care. It's not like I was an English major anyway.

in memoriam

Rest in Peace

I know I'm hella late, but it's truly the end of an era.

and we're back.

What a busy weekend...I had 4 days off and it still wasn't enough! WTH!

Friday: Worked out, went grocery shopping, Ohana for lunch w/ babe at work, drove to San Jose for Tahiti Fete to see Taryn dance but fuckin' missed her because they started early! When do those things ever start on time! BOOO! Picked up babe at work w/ 2 Mocha Fraps in hand, crossed the bridge to IKEA in the EPA, found candles and candleholders for the centerpieces super cheap, Wal-Mart at Macarthy Ranch, on to DnB for dinner and drinks w/ old coworkers. It was fun, but I was faded off 3 margaritas...who's weaksauce now?

Saturday: Woke up butt ass early to get ready to watch Roycee dance at Tahiti Fete, didn't want the same thing to happen that happened to me the prior day so we were there extra early...and guess what...they DIDN'T start on time! Bastards! Stayed there until about 11a (got there at 9a) left to Byron's parents house for Jun's grad party...that started at 5p! Setting up for what seemed like days in the hot ass sun and didn't leave until 3a! Babe's cousin's are pretty funny...I'm so the daughter now.

But wait...there's more...

Sunday: Got up to clean for our potluck/BBQ/day before the 4th. Ate hella in the climate controlled kitchen w/ 10 kids under foot. Illegal fireworks display which everyone enjoyed however I now know what a heart attack feels like. Police came, but like 3 hours later and didn't really do anything but talk to my dad. Had 4 Smirnoff Ices (the twisted kind) within a span of 1 hour after everyone had already left, was drunk as all heezy and babe didn't even have a glass of water next to me on the nightstand! Guess he doesn't know what it feels like to take care of a drunk person.

Monday: Cleaned house like mad people, waited for my lil shit, one of my kids and Katherine to come on over. I heart my sisters! Almost done w/ the invites (cutting them at least), had some ice cream and chocolate cake...now feeling like a fat ass. Some good sex too.

I'm tired and want to go in my car and sleep. Why is it so windy? I hope BART doesn't go on strike tomorrow otherwise I'm likely to kill someone tomorrow.

Lesson learned: Even if the weekend was extended, it's still not enough time.

headache

I have the worst headache known to man right now. Women can relate, especially if you get headaches instead of cramps during that time of month. I thought that some sugar-free mint milanos would help, but no it doesn't.

And my dumbass left my Midol at home.

Weekend's here in 2 hours though! Hurry up, weekend! I'm dying over here!

Wednesday = Thursday

So that means tomorrow = Friday. Yippee!

Who knew that a spider roll and edamame can make you full (and fuckin' be damn expensive too)?

Hey, that kinda rhymed...no wait...it didn't.

I thought I was a poet and didn't even know it.

Now that rhymed!

I'm such a lame ass.

pee-pee dance

Drinking a gallon of water a day causes you visit the facilities 5+ times a day.

Byron and I had really bad gas last night and we had to leave the window open for circulation's sake.

I realize that the last sentence was TMI, but ask me if I care.

I have been displaced from my work area into a vacant office because my boss' sister-in-law is doing work there. I'm kinda really liking having my own office, so it's gonna suck when she doesn't come in anymore.

I had a opportunity for Free Lunch Monday today, but I already ate my salad. Good thing I have Friday off now because now I don't feel so jipped.

Who the hell made up the word "jipped" anyway? Maybe the same person that made up "moded?" I'd like to meet that guy.

CONGRATS TO MIAH ON HIS NEW JOB! (will you come visit me now?)

strength, courage and wisdom

Last week I found out that my aunt has stage 2 breast cancer. It made me realize that we are not invincible and nothing lasts forever. I'm having a hard time with how close it is to me. I mean, I know that cancer runs in the family, but I didn't know how close it was. I'm buying those pink bracelets and giving one to every female member in my family. Sometimes we just need to be reminded.

On another not-so-related-but-kinda subject, I had a dream last night where I was breast feeding my child. Weird.

summertime

7 reasons why driving a black car sucks

1. It gets hella hot in Walnut Creek...and I work there.
2. Sure, it's sexy after it's washed, but 1 day later...it looks dirty again.
3. People always ask you why you got a black car because of reason #1.
4. Not very visible in the dark = hit and run.
5. People make fun of the fact that it has a dark interior as well.
6. Nobody likes to ride in it especially after reason #1.
7. It attracts mosquitos for some reason.

fat ass

I worked out but once this past week. Dammit. Hardcore this week though...Hardcore

I hate getting the sad face from my mom. It is so easy to make me feel guilty. I really wish she didn't know that.

Why do moms make comments about weight loss, then hella feed you afterwards? What kind of message is that? Do you want me to be fat or not?

I can't believe Liza is getting married! Yay engagements!

Man. I'm broke as a joke until the 1st of the month. And that stupid Bone Thugs song keeps playin' in my head. Sucks.

I got a case of the Mondays.

incomplete

I am bored as all hell today at work, so what do I do? Browse xangas of course! I came upon some for some of my sisters who were freshman when I was in my last quarter in school. It got me thinking about 2 things 1) how effin' old I am now and 2) the list of things that I was supposed to do before I left SB. Let's take a gander at that list shall we?

1. Go fishing in the reflecting pool at Storke Tower
2. Light my cigarette on the Eternal Flame
3. Watch the sun come up from the RBR
4. Drive Lucky through campus
5. Get drunk at Chilito's at the UCen during school hours
6. Throw a slammin' apartment party
7. Have sex somewhere on campus, excluding on-campus dorm rooms

I was able to complete 3 of the seven aformentioned. Which 3 I'll leave to your imagination *evil laugh* Happy Friday Everyone!

"I'm so happy for you..."

People say it all the time...but do they really mean it?

I know that I've said this to some people at one point in my life and it kinda makes me wonder about the people that don't say it. I heard that if you love someone, you're happy for them whatever they decide to do with their lives. So does that mean that the people that aren't happy for you, never loved you?
