even robots think I'm loud

• What's up homie G's? What's crack a lackin? I think that's what kids these days say, not completely sure. I had a pretty cool weekend. I actually got enough sleep for once, which is great because this week I'm working A LOT. Seriously. Let's see on Friday morning I went home and slept, got up, and worked at Traffic.com from 3-7pm. Then I took Michelle out to dinner at Applebees (although I was mad at her since I came to pick her up and she was still in her freakin nightgown...) and went home and rested. I finished Hostage Train by the way, that movie was total cheese, but I love it. Then I watched City Slickers and went to bed.
  
• On Saturday I worked at KDFC as usual, then hit the gym and worked it seriously for like an hour. I was hecka sweaty and my heart rate was up pretty high. It was awesome. Then I took Dad to get his prescription filled for his new glasses at Walmart, and picked myself up a new outfit while I was there. Later on at home I had a Gardenburger and broccoli for dinner, and watched Stripes with TJ and Cathy. Later on I put on Black Magic, another bad Judge Reinhold movie. By the way did I mention he's in Stripes? Hahaha. Anyway in Black Magic, he's going to some town in the south to find out what happened to his dead cousin who keeps haunting his dreams. His dead cousin is played by Anthony LaPaglia, that dude from Without A Trace with a rockin mullet. I don't know the witch lady's name and I'm too lazy to look it up on IMDB. So he falls in love with this chick and she curses him, but he can't find it in his heart to kill her. He ends up getting creamed when she sets her house on fire and second floor falls on him. Good lord. Not as bad as seeing him bite it by being pushed off a cliff by Crystal Bernard. Niiiiice. After this movie, Cathy and TJ came back out in the living room (they had been "hiding" in their room during this awful movie but they were probably doing you know what.. gross), and we watched The Simpsons Movie. Very good.
  
• On Sunday I took Michelle and my dad to the county fair. It was really fun. I had a greasy cheeseburger which gave me a tummyache later on, baked beans (haha), half of dad's chocolate milkshake, and half of a funnel cake. I love carnival food. We looked at all the exhibits, watched roller derby, pet lots of barnyard animals, and I met a talking robot who said I was very loud. It was a great experience. You'll see pics when I get the computer back. Any day on the software, Gateway. Thanks. Oh yeah, I watched behind the scenes featurettes for Beverly Hills Cop II and III and learned even more annoying facts about Judge Reinhold. Hahahaha! Thought I'd throw that out there.
  
• Oh yeah, way too much info for most of you, but I'm surfing the crimson tide, if you know what I mean. Yes it's back, with full force. Let's just say we have a new name for the couch now. ROTF
  

Tookie!

• What's up homie G's? Yay it's Friday! I love Fridays, seriously. Can you tell? I think it's because I have an insane work week. Yes I have to work 3-7pm at Traffic.com. Yes I work 8a-1p tomorrow at KDFC. Least I get tonight off from work. I sleep, yes precious sleep. Am I making much sense so far? I hope so.
  
• As usual, not too much going on. Wednesday I worked, ate, worked again, blah blah. Thursday morning I worked out at the gym, took Dad and Michelle to Walmart, Lucky, Starbucks and Petsmart. Didn't get in bed until like 1pm. I was up for 23 hours or so, really tired. Then I got up, ate some Vietnamese food TJ got for me, watched the end of Hostage Train (Judge was in his undies in one scene kicking this Russian dude's butt.. it was hot) and came to work. Here I am. I did like 2 1/2 hours of bible study, no joke. Only interrupted by three phone calls, two of them from Michelle who apparently doesn't sleep. Other was Davina, she's awesome.
  
• I plan on actually sleeping this weekend for once. Well I'll try. I'll also be spending A LOT of time with Michelle and my dad, and although that's kind of annoying, family does come first. I'm planning on taking dad to the fair on Sunday, that should be fun. Hopefully I'll have cool stuff to report on my blog late Sunday night/Monday morning.. whatever it is.
  

same ol crap

• What's up my homies? It's the middle of the week, and I'm beat. These 60-70 hour work weeks are insane, but they should slow down in a few weeks. I don't mind it though, once I get the paychecks I'll be happy. Nothing much has been going on the last few days, really.
  
• Both Monday and Tuesday I slept, got up, showered, ate, went to work, came home and ate dinner, watched bad Judge Reinhold movies and went to my fulltime job. I'm doing exactly the same thing today, too. Thursday morning I'll finally be able to hit the gym and do the weekly grocery run, and then I can catch up on sleep that afternoon/evening. Then I'm working Friday afternoon and I can catch up on rest Friday night.
  
• Oh god the bad movies I've watched the last few days are great. In Four Eyes and Six Guns Judge Reinhold plays an 1800s optometrist who moves to Tombstone to help Wyatt Earp see better. It's awful, but I love it. I also watched Baby On Board earlier, well 3/4 of it. Nothing says barf like watching Judge make out with Carol Kane. Can I get an amen? The little girl in it is cute and the gags are retarded, but so are most bad family films. I wouldn't call it much of a family film since there's lots of violence/shooting with mob folks running after Carol Kane (hahahaha) but it's got the cheese. Judge has long hair pulled back and a scary looking mustache going on, it's wonderful. Okay now I'm going to rock out to the Free Willy soundtrack (I love Michael Jackson) and try to stay awake.
  

My name is Judge..

• The Lisa is back, and you know she can never be wack.. the Lisa is back, cuz you know she's the Lisaaaaaaaa.. (that's from a Fat Boys song in case ya didn't know) I am all kinds of tired, but I had an awesome weekend. Friday was hotter than a you know what, and after I got off work at Traffic.com I took Michelle and Dad to dinner at Red Robin so he could get out of the house. Then I went home and watched Friends with Cathy and went to bed.
  
• Saturday morning I did my usual gig at KDFC. It was pretty cool, and we got a second coffee machine. This one does froofy drinks like mochas, french vanilla coffee, cappuccino and that kind of thing. I had a decaf mocha and it was tasty. Afterward I went back to the east bay, hit up Jamba Juice (the one at Bayfair is GHETTOTASTIC!), and headed off to Lodi.
  
• I had so much fun at Kimmie's house, as I usually do. When I first got there she had several presents to give me for my bday. That woman always overdoes it with the gifts, but I'm used to it by now. Haha. First of all her mom gave me the most random gifts ever. A plastic toy gun that shoots marshmallows, and Cheech and Chong's Greatest Hits on cassette. What is some old white lady doing with Cheech and Chong tapes? ROTF. Okay Kimmie gave me a buttload of stuff. In Living Color season 1, Honey I Shrunk The Kids, Highway To Heaven Season 1 (cheesetastic!), Christopher Reeve's book, Christina Crawford's second book (sequel to Mommie Dearest), and Sybil (the novel, not Sally Field movie). I have plenty of stuff to watch and read now, for sure. First movie we watched was the Richard Donner cut of Superman II. See about halfway through filming of the second movie they changed directors to some other dude who totally rearranged the film to it's cheesy theatrical release. Well this is the version the original director had in mind. It was pretty good. Then we ate dinner, a nice homemade dinner Kimmie made from scratch, on the good dishes and silverware. She also had a pink rose in a vase on the table. This meant a lot to me because my mom loved pink roses. We had a great pot roast, mashed potatoes, yummy veggies and croissants. For dessert we had new york style cheesecake with chocolate gnash (ga-nosh) on the top. It was FANTASTIC. Yes Cathy I brought some home if you'd like to try it. The next movie we watched was No Place Like Home starring Judge Reinhold, Richard Moll, and a cast of unknowns who later did random crap on the WB. To me it seemed like a bad cross between Kyle XY and E.T. Judge seemed like he was pissed the whole movie and didn't even try to act, either that or his character was very manic depressive. It was so bad it was hilarious. After that we watched Teen Wolf, then Coming Unglued, another bad Judge Reinhold movie also starring Joely Fisher. These Lifetime movie kings/queens seem to stick together, don't they? Haha. The acting wasn't so bad in this one, but the cheesy family movie background music was getting to be a bit much after a while. Next up was Mannequin, a staple for any 80s good time. Meshach Taylor as a flaming gay guy and hotass Andrew McCarthy are a great combo for fun. While we played Mannequin we played the 80s Game, and I whooped ass two games in a row. Then Kimmie showed me her work so far on the "project", and we called it a night.
  
• On Sunday we ended up sleeping until almost 1pm, but we had gone to bed around 4am the night before. We started our day by ordering pizza and mozzarella sticks for brunch from Woodbridge Pizza and playing another round of the 80s Game while watching Stripes. Harold Ramis with an afro is hot. So is Judge Reinhold trying to smuggle drugs. Hey man, he was smokin hot in his mid 20s, mmmkay? After Stripes we decided to go for ice cream at Baskin Robbins (I had my free ice cream coupon.. haha). I had fudge brownie and Kimmie had pistachio. Yum. Then we had a random shopping spree at Walgreens. I found some $1 DVD with some TV movie of Ted Danson prosecuting a child molester. Now that's going to be interesting. I also picked up some makeup on sale, and some mugs you stick in the freezer to keep your drinks cold. Later on we got back to her place, and I went up to Subway to pick up dinner. I had a cold cut trio sandwich and apple slices, she had oven roasted chicken with Baked Lays. Then we watched 2 episodes of In Living Color (those Fly Girls with the biker shorts and push up bras are hilarious), and I had to skeedaddle outta there. I always have so much fun relaxing and having movie marathons.
  
• Here's some phrases for the weekend.. "Tookie Williams!" "Moses cums on fire?" "duuuurrrrr I'm Teri Hatcher!!!!" "My name is JUDGE!" "Sniff my bag of apple blossom goodies." "Zoom in on my flat titties. My bra came up ladies and gents. Yes Kevin I had a sexy party without you." and "Look I'm Lois, I'll jump out the window! Wait! I can't jump! SHIT!"
  
• Anyway, on the way back I got stuck in MAJOR traffic. I was in Tracy for over an hour. 205 was down to one lane due to construction and took forever to get through. Then I had to scramble home to go potty and grab a few things. I was about an hour late for work. I won't get in trouble, don't worry. I gave Victoria a ride home, and she gave me this huge cat condo that won't fit in her new apartment. Spencer's gonna love it. Well that's all for now. Boy I'm longwinded.
  

dude im old

• I am back from my lovely bday off and I loved it. Did I go crazy? Not exactly. Wednesday morning I went to the gym then did the usual grocery parade with Michelle and Dad. Later on that evening we went to dinner at Marie Callendar's and had ice cream at Coldstone since I had a coupon. I am a coupon fiend as you all know, especially in this economy. I had the rest of the night off from work (thanks to Brad at Family Radio and Paul at Traffic.com for rearranging schedules!!!!) so I used my time wisely by watching bad Judge Reinhold movies. I am such a weirdo. I have more bad Judge movies coming via the good ol Pony Express but they haven't arrived yet. Hopefully I'll get at least one of the four this afternoon so I can bring it on Saturday to Kimmie's. If not I'll bring Stripes and that bad UFO one, girlie.
  
• Thursday I slept in until about 11:30am and it was glorious. After barking at the Gateway people who need to send me restore CDs since mine are nowhere to be found, I ate yummy leftovers, picked up Michelle and went to the gym. Then I worked in Emeryville. Then I came home, said hi to Cathy's friend Amanda and made a bombass dinner. Then Cathy forced me to watch several episodes of Friends, and I watched a funny Dana Carvey special on HBO. Now I'm work and just read 6 chapters in 2 Kings. God telling people to massacre each other for varying reasons, folks being torn apart by dogs. Fun stuff.
  
• I should have a fun weekend since I'm kickin it with Kimmie. I'm bringing my camera, God only knows what kind of pics/footage I'll have by Sunday night. Haha.
  
• One more thing. Do you ever wonder if celebrities fart? I bet they do, but I wonder if they've ever ripped one at the Grammy's or anything? I bet the New Kids fart.. I should ask the New Kids On The Block about their gastrointestinal feats in October. Seriously. "Hey Joey Joe, do you toot on stage?" ROTF
  

go lisa, it's your birthday

• Go Lisa, it's your birthday, gonna party like it's your birthday, drink Kahlua like it's your birthday, you know we don't give a &*$% it's not your birthday.. well it is!!!! WOOOT. I'm excited, although most of my festivities have already taken place. I'm 28 years young now. I'm trying to stay in a positive frame of mind even though this is my first bday without my mom. So much has changed over the past year, it's insane. I live in a different house, drive a different car, have a different cat, one less parent. I am so blessed to have great friends like you guys, seriously. I'm also blessed enough to have 3 jobs, and a very weird sense of humor. I'm blessed in so many ways.
  
• FYI.. I won't be online tonight, I got the night off from all my gigs. I'm going to dinner with my folks and then I will have a nice well rested evening at home catching up on Scrubs DVDs. I think I deserve it. Okay I'll probably make my grocery list and go take a semi-nap here at work. You know.. sleeping but not really sleeping. One last thing before I leave..
  

"My name is JUDGE!"

Anyone seen that episode of Arrested Development? ROTF

woot there it is

• What's up homies? It's almost my bday.. yay I'm old. Like all early Monday morning posts, I'll start this out with "I had an awesome weekend." I did.. really. I mean it wasn't monumentally mindblowing, but it was fun. Friday morning I got my car washed/detailed at Hutch's and went to breakfast with Michelle at Mimi's. I had some yummy breakfast burritos. Then we went to Bally and got Michelle all signed up, and renewed my membership. I was a little too exhausted (having been up about 20 hours and all) to work out at that point, so I went home and slept. I got up around 5:30pm that afternoon, with Cathy and Stuart screaming "Happy Birthday!!" in my face and nearly causing a coronary. I then had one of those situations where a small get together turns into a full fledged party. We ordered pizza, Amy came with her pal David (not Magical David, it was Heart Transplant David), Alisha showed up, then Fernando and Grace came with Joey. Joey is 15 months old and loves chasing cats and helping people unwrap presents. Around 9ish TJ went to bed because he's 28 going on 75. Fernando and Grace left around 10:30, then Jeff showed up. Everyone else seemed to leave around 11pm. The party wasn't over though. Davina got off work around 12:30am, and she and Lorie came around 1. We partied until 3am, and I got 3 hours of sleep. I got great gifts from everyone, including A LOT of lip balm from Cathy and Amy. Hmm I wonder why. Got some cash, AMEX gift card, Best Buy gift card, Jamba Juice gift card, some Doritos (haha), a porcelain Kermit the Frog figurine, Bert and Ernie action figures, Mad Libs, bubbles, and a stuffed Gizmo doll (from Gremlins). So yeah I made out like a bandit.
  
• Saturday morning I woke up and had a slight hangover. I partied a lot the night before, as you can read above. Good thing I've been taking a Vitamin B supplement, that helped speed up my metabolism and get the poison out of my system. You guys know I don't party that often anyway, really. I worked at KDFC as usual and had fun like I always do. When I got back to San Leandro I hit the gym and worked it, y'all. I was jogging again, and it felt great. Then I went home and did major housecleaning, took a nap and Davina and I went to Claimjumper for supper. Man I love that place. Had some garlic bread, whiskey chicken dinner and we shared a brownie finale for dessert. I tried to pay but she wouldn't let me, so I decided to give the cute waiter a good tip. After going home for a potty break, we went to Target. I got all three Beverly Hills Cop movies on DVD. Davina almost got a bike but decided not to at the last minute. We ended up going back to my house and watching Beverly Hills Cop III. Excellent choice. She left and I started watching Gremlins but got tired about 20 min into it and called it a night.
  
• Sunday morning I woke up and took a shower, picked up Michelle and went to church. It was a good sermon, mostly telling dudes to step up and take care of their families, a good Father's Day theme. Too bad most guys out there don't have this mentality anymore. After church Michelle and I hit the gym and worked it again. Cathy showed up and I wished I had my camera on me. All three sisters on treadmills pumping up the jam, it was awesome. If only Mom could have seen us. When I was done sweating my booty off we picked up Dad and went to Best Buy. He bought me seasons 1 and 2 of Scrubs, and I used a giftcard to get a few 80s CDs, along with The Offspring and P.O.D. For Father's Day I gave him a copy of The Sands Of Iwo Jima starring John Wayne, one of his favorites. Then we had a late lunch at In-And-Out Burger. So healthy, I know. Haha. Afterwards I went home and took a LONG nap, came to work and the rest is history.
  
• I apologize to anyone who didn't come to my "party" on Friday night. I didn't intend for it to be a real party, but my sister invited people, I invited a person or two.. food came, booze poured, and yeah.. it happened. My schedule is pretty insane for the next week or two, but we should all hang out sometime. I'm addressing folks I haven't talked to in forever, you know who you are.
  

pre-bday weekend

• Hey there homies. Thank god it's Friday! Whooo. The last few days of course haven't been monumental. Wednesday morning Michelle and I worked out, and got in contact with someone to set her up with a membership. We're going back this morning to get the paperwork done and stuff. Yes believe it or not I was jogging on the treadmill again. I'll try doing that again this morning, too. Yesterday I worked at Traffic.com, my usual gig. I'm working there A LOT next week. I'm insane, yes I know. When I see the check, I won't be disappointed I'll tell you that.
  
• This weekend I don't have too much going on, really. Trying to keep things low key. After work this morning I'm picking up Michelle and getting my car washed/detailed. It needs it, trust me. Then we're doing breakfast at Mimi's Cafe since I have a $10 off coupon for my birthday. Take it from me, sign up for every single restaurant's E-club, and you get plenty of discounts. After a yummy meal, we're gonna go sweat it off at the gym and get our accounts set up. This evening I may have a couple people over for pizza, drinks, whatever. Cathy made me a cake from scratch. I didn't make a giant deal this year since I've been kinda melancholy about the whole thing. First birthday without my mom, it's hard. She's with me in spirit, for sure.
  
• Saturday I've got the KDFC gig, then hitting the gym. Later on in the evening Davina and I have a heterosexual date for dinner at Claimjumper. Haha. If you wanna cheat and eat lots of giant portions of fattening food, that's the place to do it at.
  
• Sunday is church, and Dad wants to take me to Best Buy so he can buy me some DVDs for my bday. He can't go crazy like Mom used to do when she took me shopping, but he still wants to get me something. He means well. Of course he didn't even know that my birthday is next week until Michelle told him. I'm not offended, because even when he still had his marbles he never remembered any of our birthdays or how old we were anyway. I asked him how old he thought I was and he said 22. This was a few days ago. Haha.
  
• Well, I'm gonna go half doze and rock out to Huey Lewis and The News. Adios, mis amigos!
  

she must be somebody's baby

• What's up, my peeps? Not much here. I always say that but then once my brain starts flowing I write about 3-4 paragraphs. Oh well. Let's see what's been going on? I worked Monday night at Traffic.com. That was fun. Then I worked here later on. I had a really bad tummyache and barfed for the first time in over a year. No I didn't eat any tomatoes.
  
• Then yesterday I slept, got up and took my dad's dog to the vet to get his shots, went home and fell back asleep. It was very enjoyable, I needed the rest. I woke up around 6:30pm, took a shower, made dinner, and watched a few movies. It was an enjoyable evening. First Cathy had put on Son In Law, and I got bored about 3/4 of the way through it. Then I realized the cable was out and TJ had mentioned it was out most of the day. I called Comcast and was on the phone with them for about 30 minutes. They concluded that my cable box is defective, and a dude is coming by this afternoon to replace it and make sure all is well in digital cable land. I was still bored afterward so I put on Fast Times At Ridgemont High. I almost wrote Ridgemont Thigh. ROTF. Anyway, y'all know I have a fat crush on Judge Reinhold especially when he's playing Brad Hamilton and he's got a cute butt while washing his car. I need to get this on DVD Special Edition so I can pause and get some nice screencaps. I only have it on VHS. Sad I know. After the movie I grabbed food for work and came here. Exciting.
  
• This morning after work I'm picking up Michelle, we're going to Bally and I'm getting a new membership for myself and her. Mine lapsed over a month ago and I need to get back in my workout routine. Michelle needs to go desperately, and Mom was always encouraging her to lose weight so this should help. If I take her to the gym, she will go. After exercising we're doing the weekly Walmart/Lucky run, which is also thrilling. Then home to wait for the cable guy and sleep. That's about it, folks.
  

some like it hot and some burn when the heat is on

• I'm baaaack. Yeah it's only been 3 days since my last blog update, but oh well. I'm in a really good mood. Not sure why. Maybe it's because I'm working 55 hours this week instead of 63 like last week or 70 a few weeks back. Could also be the pretty fun weekend I just had, despite the extreme lack of sleep on Friday/Saturday.
  
• Let's see on Friday evening I went to dinner with Michelle at Marie Callender again. I seem to be addicted to their cornbread. Oh well. I worked later on that evening here as a favor for Yuriy. I spent a good deal of my shift half asleep, and watching My Girl. Saturday I went to Live 105's BFD with Davina, Cathy, Amy, and Mikey. It was pretty fun. Fun yet exhausting. I was running on about 2 hours of sleep, still had bronchitis and it was pretty hot. I did a lot of dancing and got a fake panda tattoo on my neck from some creepy guy who kept caressing my hair and tried to bite me. Video will be uploaded soon. Oh wait duh.. don't know if I mentioned it but my computer is at Best Buy being fixed.. it does have spyware issues and a virus, so I'll get it back in a week or two. I could have just had the hard drive wiped but I have pictures of my mom on there and stuff, so I'd rather have them take their time restoring it. Getting back to the BFD subject, it was tons of fun. We left pretty early, around 6pm due to exhaustion and Davina's bad reaction to her nachos. I'm sure she's stoked that I'm sharing her potty adventures. We went to In-And-Out after that for dinner (yes I'm bad), got gas in Menlo Park and headed home. I collapsed into bed around 8pm after doing random housework first.
  
• Sunday morning I opted not to go to church so I could get more rest. I slept about 12 hours total. I finally roused myself out of bed, did some dishes and mopped some floors. Then I took a shower, picked up Michelle, and bought my new bike at Target. It's a Tony Hawk "ANGRY" model. I'm not an angry person, but it was the coolest bike there. I need to adjust the seat then I can ride it. I'm excited. We watched TV for a few hours, then I took Michelle and Dad to Red Robin for dinner. Dad paid. Thank god. I'm not exactly broke anymore, but I just paid LOTS of bills, bought NKOTB tickets and a new bike. So yeah, trying to watch the fundage. That's my weekend in a nutshell, folks. I hope the rest of my week goes pretty smooth and I pray that I'll get enough sleep.
• P.S. Manny I'm praying for you. I know you're going through a very rough time and I don't want you to ever think I still don't care about you. :-)
  

YAAAAAAAY

• What's goin on, my peeps? Not much here. Well not much thrilling anyway. I've been working my tooshy off, and I finally got enough sleep yesterday. Eight hours of glorious rest, I loved it. I should get enough sleep today, when I get to. I'm going to breakfast with Leeanne after work, going walking with Michelle, then taking her and Dad to get medical supplies for him, and I need to drop off my computer at the Geek Squad there in Union City. I gotta work tonight, I'm filling in for Yuriy the weekend guy which is kind of a bummer, but I volunteered for it before I got my third job and was stretched for money. Oh well, 8 hours of OT will be coming my way soon. Saturday I'm going to BFD with Davina, Cathy and Amy. I'll be running on almost no sleep, but I don't work that night so I'll be alright. At the worst I'll ask Davina to drive on the way home.
  
• Oh yeah in case I didn't mention, Kimmie and I, along with her sister Carol and our pal Cara, are going 5 star VIP to see New Kids On The Block on October 10th when they play in San Jose. I'm so excited and still amazed that I was able to get the passes before they sold out. Yes I'm pretty much paying up the wazoo, but to be able to tell folks what Donnie Wahlberg smells like is well worth it. Yeah I'm that weird.
  
• Oh and I keep having this reoccuring dream that a young Judge Reinhold is a teacher at my high school (and I'm back in the 90s again apparently), and I keep flunking tests and skipping homework just so I can stay after class and get "help". I have a VERY overactive imagination, don't you think? That and I just changed my desktop here at work to a hot picture of Don Johnson circa 1986. Oooh baby.
  

Whooo I'm gonna MEET THE NEW KIDS!!! Rick Astley is hot too, Corey Haim, and Kirk.. oooh la la!



Whoo he was hot from Fast Times to Beverly Hills Cop III.... then he got old. He's still awesome, but not as hot. Hey in 10 years I'll be not so hot either.

oh the joy

• What's goin on, homie G's? Not much here. Work, work and more work. I'm getting about 6 hours of sleep a day, so I'm not exactly exhausted. I agreed to work another shift this afternoon as a favor for my boss in Emeryville, and it's more money for me. I will definitely get decent sleep on Thursday.. well I hope. Thursday morning we're doing the grocery run, getting crap from a medical supply store in Hayward, and after I put all that away I'm gonna drop off my computer at Best Buy for the Geek Squad to debug, etc. I know several of you will go "What's wrong with the computer? Maybe I can help." Well um my internet connection is fine according to Comcast, but my computer won't recognize that. Also, I tried reinstalling Windows XP, and it asked for my admin password. I never created a password. So um yeah I think I have a virus. For the past day or so the computer has been off and will remain so until I can get it to a computer physician.. i.e. the Geek Squad. I'd rather pay a few hundred to fix it versus buying a new computer. With all this being said, maybe on Friday I'll get enough sleep. *sigh*
• Oh yeah, other small bundles of stress. Can't buy VIP tix for NKOTB until today at 7pm. Fortunately I'll be at work and online, so don't worry Kimmie. I'm crossing my fingers. Regular tix go on sale at Ticketmaster for general public on the 9th. Oh and I never got my BFD tix in the mail, but I straightened it out with Ticketmaster, my tix will be at will call at The Shoreline on Saturday to pick up. Good lord I got so much crap on my plate.
  
• Oh one more fun thing. I have yet another sinus infection. Had the sore throat yesterday morning, woke up in the afternoon with lots of yellow snot pouring everywhere. I've been feverish all day (since I woke up at 1:30pm yesterday) and I've had nice headaches. I only get headaches when my sinuses act up. My last doctor said I have chronic sinusitis because my sinus cavaties are very small. He's probably right. Anywhoo, all I can do is try to get enough sleep and pray for the best.
  
• I do enough complaining lately, don't I? LOL
  

back on the grind

• What's crackin my homies? I'm back from my weekend. It was nice and relaxing, thank god. Friday afternoon I worked at Traffic.com, then went to dinner at Marie Callender's with my dad and Michelle. It was really yummy. Afterwards, I went home and watched Back To The Future with Cathy and TJ.
  
• Saturday I worked my normal shift at KDFC, then took Michelle and Dad to the Cherry Festival there in San Leandro. It was fun just walking around and visiting various booths. The overpriced funnel cake was okay too. Then I stopped by Target to pick up new earphones, since the ones I had only worked in one ear, and homey don't play that. Next stop was Barnes and Noble, where everyone browsed for about half an hour, and Dad picked up a few new Tom Clancy novels. Then we drove down to Claimjumper, where I had made reservations. The food there is always awesome, although it's crowded/noisy. Dad didn't like all the commotion around him, but he loved his mashed potatoes and ice cream sundae. I had a turkey burger with salad and some garlic bread. I think Michelle had chicken and noodles. Then I went home and Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, a little TV, and went to bed around 11.
  
• Sunday morning I woke up, picked up Michelle, and went to church. The message was about tithing, not my favorite topic but I sat through it anyway. Afterwards Michelle, Davina and I decided to go for lunch at Sweet Tomatoes in Pleasanton. Similar to Fresh Choice only much better. Man it was yummy. Then we went to Stoneridge Mall and walked around shopping for an hour or so. I got a new shirt and wristband at Hot Topic (used the last of that giftcard, Amy) and a shake at Haagen-Dazs. Oh man that was good. Then I went home and took a LONG nap, and here I am. Yay.
  
• This week my schedule is busy, but not as bad as last week. 58 hours, not 70. I'm working an extra shift here Friday night, I volunteered for it long before I got hired at the third gig. I'll be TIRED for BFD on Saturday, but oh well. Speaking of BFD, I don't think I've gotten my tix yet. I doubt I threw them away. If I don't see them by Wednesday, then I'm worrying. Oh yes, and I'm trying to get VIP tix for NKOTB this morning, gotta set my alarm clock for that. I fear I'm not getting much sleep the next few days. Oh well, what can I do?
