The one following the Thanksgiving Aftermath….

Well after one of the worse Thanksgivings ever…
Hmmm too harsh…
Actually, it was bad at all. It wasn’t the Thanksgiving that I was expecting, but in the end most of it was salvaged.
I am still bummed about missing my flight to Seattle to see my parents. But Thanksgiving dinner at Serraph’s was pretty fun, if a bit different and unorthidox (sp?) The Turkey was excellent, it was pretty moist and not too dry. The ‘taters and the stuffing was good too. And for dessert, Mrs Larson (serraph’s mom) made a blue chocolate creme pie in my honor, since I missed my flight. I guess the thing with me is that the Thanksgiving dinner is usually a formal affair and this one ws very informal. Well, after Serraph and her sister Kimberly almost got into a major fight, we fled to Jason’s house to play Monopoly. That was kind of wierd too because usually Thanksgiving is about the family and the whole day is a family day. But Serraph and Kimberly were really about to kill each other and Suzanne is really close to Jason’s Family. So I guess that is her pass to be let in. Anyway, the Monopoly game was pretty fun. It was the first time in a LONG time that I have played with 8 people. Jason’s whole family is so cool. They are not overly family (like the Flanders on the Simpsons) and I’m sure that they have their problems and stuff. But compare to other families that I have seen, I would have to rank them high. Well, Jason ended up winning the game (he won with the magenta properties). Suzanne came in second and I came in third. I knew I wasn’t going to win, because I was getting mostly small rolls and it took me awhile to go around the board. Also the only monopoly I had was the dark blues (park place and boardwalk). Late in the game I took a chance that someone (Jason) would land on Boardwalk, so I developed them up to hotels. It was a good strategy because Jason needed either a 5 or 7 to land on my property. And also we had gone through most of the chance cards and the Adv. to Boardwalk card hadn’t been picked up yet. But he was able to roll pass and eventually I got bought out. But it was a pretty good game. Alot more civilized than the cutthroat games I play with Dan’s wife jen and her sisters 😉 After the game, Jason offered to treat us to a movie. So after picking up his friends (super-doomie, heh-heh) we went to see Unbreakable with Bruse Willis and Samuel Jackson. I thought that The Sixth Day with Arnold was bad. At least with The Sixth Day, if you went drink to the movie, you could enjoy it. This movie was so slow and the story was so…well I guess the story could have been. The acting was excellent, but even good acting couldn’t save this movie.
O.k. mike is us and needs to use the phone, so I will update later

**sigh** When it rains it

**sigh**
When it rains it pours, I guess.
Life had been going pretty well for me anyway.
I needed to get kicked off this cloud that I was kinda hovering on.
**sigh**
I think I need tequilla and sleep…

The one where he misses his flight for Thanksgiving….

Well, instead of landing at SeaTac about now, I am home cause I missed my flight. Long story short, I tried to take the back streets of Hayward to get to the airport and got stuck instead. Even if I would have stayed on the freeway, I still would have missed the flight though. I left my apt at 2pm thinking that 3hrs would be enough time. The next flight out would have been at 8:45pm and it was 60 people overbooked and the standby line was at 20. So I won’t get to see my parents. Instead, I will have Thanksgiving dinner with Suzanne’s family. Not that I won’t enjoy dinner with them, but I really miss my family. I haven’t seen them since Easter and I was really looking forward to being up there with them and recentering myself. **sigh** O.K. I am getting tearied eyed. I hope everybody in LJ land has a happy thanksgiving.

Tiger & Ram according to Chinese Astrology by Man-Ho Kwak

While the tiger needs independence to pursue new interests, the ram needs independence to contemplate or to dream but also requires the added dimension of security and reassurance. The ram does not want to be left to fend off strangers, cope with confrontations or be asked to fight for aa new cause, and the tiger can provide the security and the care that the ram needs without making unnecessary demands. THe tiger usually knows how far to intercede on the ram’s behalf without appearing over -protective. These two signs combine well as they have a mutural respect, but it is important that neither feels trapped in the relationship.

The one where he realizes that he’s in trouble with his paper for his class….

So I’ve been at the library for the last two hours and have come to the realization that I might be in trouble with the paper that I have to write for my California History class. Most of the books on the subject are checked out and it looks like that the SF library system has been raided too. The two topics that he gave us are to compare LA and SF and to argue with of the two cities is more Californian. The second question is to compare Californian cities and their hinderlands and are the cities exploitive; i.e. Does the bay area exploit the farm lands like out in Tracy for it’s own good. Or we can create our own question. I was going to do the gold rush, but it looks like there will be plenty of those kind of papers.
**idea**
What if I did a paper comparing Japanese and Chinese experiences in California through children books? Then I could use the books that I used in my Asian Amer. Children Lit class last year and take stuff from my final and my term paper for that class. Hmmm. Well, I just want to go home and curl up in my bed, except the bastard roommate is there farting his ass off. Well, the library is closing in 30 min. I think I will look around a little more and then come back tommorow morning to see if I can find any books to take with me. Otherwise, I see myself spending most of my vacation at Barnes & Nobles working on this paper 😛

The one where he should be asleep (the sequel)

But his roommates woke him up, so while he was listening to them read their chinese horiscopes (one is a dragon and the other is a goat; I am a tiger)I decided to work on the one of the animated gif that I wanted to do. The thing is that the original gif looked cool, but it was too big (**rolling my eyes**)so I had to trim it down to what is is now. I think that paid users should get a little more space for their icons. Anyway, the guys are done and I think I will try to goto sleep before the bastard comes home.

The one where he should be asleep…

Long weekend that will come back to bite me. Spent the last hour copying my Enrique CD for Suzanne. Weekend highlights…
Everybody in the apartment except for quetzal got some kind of lovin from their respective girls. Go guys….
Saw The Sixth Day with Suzanne, Jason, his friend Janus. Was not drunk enough to enjoy the movie….
Started a little on the paper that is due after thanksgiving. Def. am bringing homework with me to parents f/ thanksgiving…
Got a couple more emails for people verifying their address and stuff, but I am a little disappointed. Will probably sent off the email again to see if any of my friends will talk to me….
My girlfriend is the greatest. And not cause she is a hottie and that she bought me stuff this weekend or the stuff that she did to me or wanted to do to me (I think that there were too many cars and I don’t have the focus that you do. ;-P
O.K. I got little sleep this weekend, so I need to goto sleep now. Tommorow, I talk to the dean, and try to clean the warehouse up before Amber comes back on Tuesday from Vegas. I also should think about packing for my plane trip on Wed…
Current mood: sleepy
Current music: Suzanne’s copy of Enrique Iglesias…..

The crash continues

Well, it’s 4:30 and I’ll still ticking. I had another KKD (custard fill) to keep me going. The warehouse is a mess and I have half a mind just to leave it this way. Except that Brian, Amber’s boss, is comming in to open the warehouse for peter and tim on Monday and I don’t want him to see it messy. So I guess I will stay and clean up.
There are a couple of KKD left, but I am so full. That’s all that I have had all day long and I am feeling really sick. The pains that I cast upon myself for the pleasures that come from KKD.
OK. Let me start cleaning up so I can get out of here befroe it starts to get cold.

Lunchtime update

I am slowly coming down from my KKD sugar high. That and the fact that I woke up so early is really weighing me down. I’m trying to get all of this paperwork done so that these returns can go out on monday. I’m missing paperwork and boxes. Arrgh. And then there are all the orders tha I need to fill and the recieving that I need to do. I think that I’ll be working late tonight. Or maybe I’ll come in tommorow, but I need to goto the library and get some books for the paper that I need to do. Decisions, decisions.
Relationships are so wierd, esp. the one that Suzanne and I have. We are so 360 and we yo-yo so much. O.K. I probably yo-yo more than she does. But it just amazes me that we are together. We fight and argue and stuff, but the truth is that I only feel truly better when she is around. Otherwise, I just get down and eventually depresseed. I think that I’m addicted to her.
BTW, I’m pimp as shit according to kabuki. Ya know it, dawgs.
Anyways…
back to work…
