Waterbeds at Ikea

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3480275085496317162&hl=en

Be careful where you sit!

And the funny thing is, a similar thing happened to me when i was 6-7 years old. We were at Montgomerey Wards (It was similar to Sears if you were too young to remember), and being that i was 6-7... i loved to jump on the beds they had on display. Well... this one happened to be a display for the comforter and pillows only. No mattress. Nothing but solid wood.

So yah, i don't jump on beds at department stores anymore =P

Over-doing it

I've never felt so disgusting in my entire life.

I ordered the Ranch House Burger (Pieces of Steak, Sauteed Mushrooms and Onions, Crisp Bacon and Cheddar Cheese on Top of Our Classic Burger. Served with Fries) from Cheescake Factory.

The burger was good... but i think i ate too much too fast. I felt sooooo gross after i was done.

That's it. I'm cutting back on portions and what i choose to eat from now on. Ugh... i never want to feel like that ever again.

=X

Thoughts to you and your family...

I just found out right now.

I'm sorry for your loss, but at least you know she is in a better place and can finally rest.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family.

Take care, Caroline.

No time

So yesterday i was at the office from 7am until 8pm. That's 13 hours at work!!! (Yes lunch counts as being at work too... just don't get paid for it). This plus a minimum of 2 hours of commute a day. So that's a 15 hour day. That only leaves me 9 hours left in my day until i gotta be back where i started.

The average person needs 8 hours of sleep a day to stay healthy/mentally sane.

So do the math. I only have 1 hour in my day to eat, shit, shower, relax.

WTF. BOO!!! Down with corporate America.

I need a muthafvckin' vacation.

In no particular order...


10. Hot showers
9. A comfy bed... which i still need to buy =X
8. Free time (rare in my case)
7. Playstation
6. Nintendo DS!
5. Sleeping in the rain
4. Peace and quiet
3. The way your gf's hair smells after she washes it
2. Kisses from the one you love
1. Sara :)

Bills, bills, bills.

I took care of most of my bills last nite and i realized if i don't stop spending money on miscellaneous things (i.e. - toys, games, etc.) i'll never be able to buy rims for the G.

I think i need to start slowing it down with the spending. And maybe start budgeting.

Gotta start looking into a house, too.

EEK!

Ummm...

So yah, just posting cuz i haven't done so in quite some time.

Lately i've been fighting the temptation to walk into the Oakley store. I've since been to the Irvine Spectrum 3 times and i have resisted the urge to walk into the store for fear of spending a large amount of money on something that most would only pay $5 for.

Been a little grumpy lately, mainly due to the lack of rest/sleep. I know this only because i'm happier at work on the nights i go to bed before 11pm. Also haven't been falling asleep behind the wheel. Yah, that's a good indicator.

I've also come to the realization that i need a vacation. And i'm not talking about little weekenders to get away. I'm talking about a full week of no work, no responsibility, no stress - vacation. I haven't taken one of those since i went with my mom and sister to China... WHEN I WAS 9. So yah. I think i deserve a break.

It's 1:35pm and i haven't eaten lunch yet. I think i'm gonna go to McDonald's. I haven't had a Big Mac in quite some time.

Changes

So as Irv moves over to his new server, i need to stop being a freeloading bastard and get my own domain.

But at the same time, i'm a cheapass when it comes to this kinda stuff. I've really lagged on updating the look of my website... that and i've kinda forgotten HTML (although i'm sure i could pick up right where i left off). Also no one seems to care that i have a guestbook and other pages... so there really isn't a point to have an elaborate website.

I think i'm just gonna switch over to blogspot. I'll do that whenever i feel like getting around to it.

Irv... if you need to bump me off... don't worry about it... i have all my files backed up =)

Kelly... since i sorta helped you name your site... i need something for [blank].blogspot.com

Anyone else have any suggestions for a blogspot name?

2.5 hour lunches

So i have an appointment with Infiniti for an oil change today at 11:30am. I decide to use my lunch break to do it...

11:15am - Leave the office to drive over to the dealership
11:30am - Arrive at dealership
11:45am - Finish vehicle inspection, sign paper work. Says car will be ready in 45min
11:47am - Walk across the street for lunch at KFC with Jason, Tom, and Tom's gf Kim.
1:00pm - Never get a call from dealership. Figure car should be ready.
1:03pm - Walk back to dealership... see car ready (figures).
1:10pm - Pay for oil change and give the car a damage check.
1:15pm - Hop in the car, turn it on
1:15:30pm - realize the "Check Engine" light is on
1:16:pm - Call service rep over and tell her the light is on.
1:19pm - Service rep takes car to the back. I wait in the welcoming area outside for her to get back.
1:25pm - Not sure where the service rep is. Walk back into the offices. She's at her desk (WTF?).
1:27pm - Find out car will need to go back in for service.
1:30pm - Finish filling out paperwork for loaner vehicle.
1:33pm - Walk back to the shop to talk with the mechanic (who's a friend of mine). Find out the throttle body sensor needs to be replaced. Car will stay there the rest of the day.
1:40pm - Hop in the loaner.
1:50pm - Park the car, walk back into work.

So yah... pretty much 2.5 hour lunch break. Good thing the company didn't crash while we were out.

That would've been bad. =P
