I HAD A YEERO!

i donno why i always do this to myself. saturday night, i always tell myself that i have to go to bed early because sunday is church day and busy day... waking up at 7:15ish in the morning, possibly doing some sort of random family/friends hanging out for lunch and maybe extending to the afternoon, or an event transpires on a sunday afternoon... naps are a luxury. i didn't have one today =\ i'm almost ready to hit the bed. golly. yes, i realize that i am not speaking in sentences. who cares, i'm doing a free flow write. and i will use lots of ... and more ... HA. so that whole add on another hour thing because of the fall back time, wow, i didn't feel that at all. probably because i slept late that nite (morning when the time fell back). yes, i do remember, 'coz i was awake when the clock on the computer changed haha. so it was 2am, but then it became 1am. i don't think i was ever awake for that. haha. so i finally got to go to the famed greek cuisina on 4th... downtown ptown babeh. man, i was so full, just with the appetizers alone. i couldn't finish my gyro (yeero). and i kept singing I NEED A YEERO! get it? instead of I NEED A HERO! har har har. my feet hurt, i was in heels the whole dayng day. what else? i had some really good tofu from chinese takeout for dinner. hmmm, oh and i watched a marathon of Jon & Kate Plus 8 on TLC. i love that show. now my back hurts, sunday's almost over, and another week begins. man, time flies by. does it mean i'm having fun? i think i am (= hee hee hee.

outtawack

my sleep pattern has been messed up. golly. so the other night, i ended up sleeping at 4am. it didn't help that i had tea in the evening, which happened to be a lot stronger than i usually have. so after i stopped myself from im-ing, i made myself go to bed... without putting on nick at nite of course. haha. the episode of george lopez must've been more entertaining that usual, i was actually awake through the episode, unlike the usual of me falling asleep already around that time... i just usually put the tv on sleep, so it won't be on the whole night or anything. but no, i watched through the two episodes of fresh prince as well. it came to the point that the sleep timer had expired, turning off my tv. i was still awake. so i read moloka'i. usually i fall asleep when i read anything. instead i was engrossed in the book. so i read for another hour. next thing i knew it was 4am. i ended up waking up at 10:45, with a slight headache, just in time to get ready to meet up with priya. we saw the bee movie, which was funny btw. then i come home. oh and i had to pick up with movie called unhitched to watch it. after dinner, i pop it in my computer, turn off the lights [for the movie theater effect]. i made a mistake of watching it from my bed, under the covers. somehow i found myself pausing in the middle of it... and next thing i knew, it was an hour later. i had fallen asleep. gaaahhh. that nap cost me my sleep yet again. i hate waking up late >_< it's looking more like oregon out there today. last night was nice - i mean nice with the fog and stuff. it looked very cool. i started listening to "sleigh ride" on relient k's myspace. gosh, i really want it to be christmas already. other than that, i have to study for this assessment that i have to take to qualify for the next step of technical interviews. i applied for an entry-level .net programmer position. they've sent me a link to take an online test which contains topics such as general programming things, object oriented concepts, and math word problems. golly, i hate word problems. i need to get crackin' on the books, 'coz honestly, i don't remember a thing. do i even remember how to study? haha.

nachos

i stumbled upon a website that had a list of foods vegans do not eat. the list consisted of the obvious things, steak, bacon, butter, etc. it also included nachos on the list. i scroll down and someone very smart left a comment asking why vegans can't eat nachos.

then i laughed heartily.

waves

"Years before, Rachel had read in a magazine how an ocean wave might begin as a small ripple in the aftermath of an earthquake in China, then roll across the breadth of the Pacific, gathering force and momentum until it reached Hawai'i's halo of coral reefs, which slowed it and pushed it to the surface. So each time she rode a wave, she decided, she was riding a piece of China or Japan or Samoa..."

gravel lines

what do you expect from me?
after these takes
after this
what do you dream in the afternoon?
i'll never know
what's in your head

out past the cars on the railways
out past the city's finery
we see our breath and connection
underneath these gravel lines

you, you stole a page from the blanks
how do you weigh all of our fears?
typical, isn't it typical
for someone like me to invite you in

we took a drive in the country
your photographs were never mine
slapped in the face by the questions
posed by gravel lines
