.resist the urge

Decided to “resist the urge” and not walk down to Safeway for some ice cream. Just going to make myself sick again, and by judging by my stomach, I don’t need any ice cream. Also decided to goto the gym before I goto the Golden Gate or to Japantown tomorrow to get some exercise in. Thought about taking a walk tonight, but it is windy and cold here at the coast.

Also just found an ant here in my room, which I am not happy about. I’m hoping that it just caught a ride with me from work. Still, that means I will have to do some major cleaning tomorrow and move the furniture to make sure that it is no a swarm of them hiding in my room.

**sigh** It’s all about “resisting the urge”…resisting the urge for alot of things…

.ice cream

Thinking once again about getting some ice cream. It would be something a little less sugary than what I had from Cold Stone. Been thinking about either some It’s-Its or Drumsticks.

Will take a shower and think about it a little more.

.sick & vacation leave

Really didn’t get any sleep last night even though I had everything off before midnight. The wind was blowing and rattling the plastic that is out in back. Also there was a raccoon in the back making noise that scared the shit out of me.

So I woke up this morning and thought about calling in. Instead I just got to work late and was never in the mood to be there. Crashed several times on the fork lift, messed up on receiving stuff. At noon, I finally decided to call it a day and told Tim to take over.

Spent the afternoon catching up on sleep and recovering from last night’s dinner of Cold Stone ice cream. Just had some rice and chicken and have been drinking water all day long; hopefully it will help flush the crap out of my system.

Nothing planned for this weekend. Semi tempted to go out to Gilroy for the Garlic festival, but I don’t think that will happen. I will be going out to the Golden Gate to pay my fine for not having toll. I think (or hope) that it is still just $5. Maybe I’ll spend the day in the city. Kinda want to go window shopping in Japantown since I haven’t been in awhile.

Me and the guys are planning our last minute vacations before school starts back up. I’m going to see my parents in mid August. Mark is going to LA next weekend, Peter is taking some days off to go film. And Tim is going to Cabo for a week (he always takes the great vacations…). I should take another vacation just by myself and go somewhere, but I probably won’t. Don’t have the dying urge to fly off alone. It’s easier and cheaper to be alone close to home anyway. Besides, I need to save up money for the upcoming holidays. Have already decided on when I’m going up for Xmas; still need to wait for Thanksgiving dates. And then there is the Ren Faire in two months. I wonder if this is going to be the year that I finally get a cloak? Who knows…
