I am a pair of dice shaken in that Yahtzee shaker thingy...
Relocation...and pain
I am writing my first entry into my blog from my NEW COMPUTER!!! That's right, I am now the proud owner of a Compaq Presario 6000z and an Envision 17" CRT Flat Panel monitor, all of which, after rebates, will have cose me less than $500!!! That is a steal, or my name isn't Jay. But yay, I'm so happy that I have my own desktop with which I can totally mess with. I'm so grateful for friends like Chris, who let me borrow his laptop forever...Jos always reminds me what great friends I have, as if I already didn't know it. So anyway, I feel kinda cool now that I have this new comp set up. It's not gonna make me more productive, or a different person, or anything..it's just cool, ha ha ha.
It's hard for me to type kinda cuz freakin jacked up my middle finger on my left hand during our game last night. DAMNIT, I hate that! The game was pretty much over already too and then I hurt the sucker...It isn't TOO bad, but it does hurt and looks pretty nasty though, all swollen, purple, and I can barely move it. Blech...and being that I still don't have mofo'in health insurance, I can only wait and hope and wish and pray that it is nothing more than a mild sprain that just turned all purple and crap.
A blast from the past
I crashed at Chris and the girls' place last night after the game cuz I was already out there(I met Chris and the twins and their friend at Steamers after I had dinner w/ Mae). PLUS, I had to burn some data from his laptop onto CD so I could transfer it to my new desktop(I know, shut up already, I keep mentioning the NEW DESKTOP). So I was in OC til late and still had to do that CD burning stuff...which could wait til morning. So..I crashed... Chris went to bed kinda early so me and Caren just stayed up til like 3 something just catching up...it was so fun, almost like having roomates again. Made me realize how much I really do miss my roomates. Living at home home with your folks is really a completely different experience, especially if one has grown accustomed to living out on their own...well maybe not totally on their own cuz I always had support from them if I needed it...but not always...but STILL, it's different. So simply put, I don't think I've totally adjusted to my new living situation quite yet. I was talking to someone the other day, and she told me she had JUST adjusted completely...and she'd been home now for like 5 months. I don't think I'll EVER COMPLETELY adjust, because I will always be yearning to be out on my own...there's just an independance and a "look at the boy you've raised, he can do it on his own" feeling that I get from that. But each his/her own and we all must come to grips w/ the cards we are dealt...so here's to dealing and adjusting...
Today
So needless to say that today was quite the eventful day. Woke up, had breakfast, finally burned that info for my NEW DESKTOP, and went home. After putting the bubster down for a nap, me and mom went to TARGET, like one of the most funnest and coolest stores ever created. After I brought mom home I went to Best Buy to get her a VHS rack and some speakers for...what else? MY NEW DESKTOP! Ended up also buying a book, "Armageddon," the next book in the "Left Behind" series by Lahaye and Jenkins, and one of those gel-filled wrist pads, man this thing is comfortable. Then went to a Dodger game w/ Chris, Chiems, Ai, Jon, and Averell...hell yeah, it was so fun. We won 3-0...no homers, but we did eat some dodger dogs, do the wave for about 10 min, sing "Take me out to the Ball Game," and also see Gagne close it all out. Pretty sweet...we also went to ROSCOES, again, for like the 3rd time within the past MONTH!!! And we'll probably go again within the next week or two because of the free roscoes night, compliments of me, so FOUR times within about a month!!! Damn, I find that pretty crazy. This time, Omar was added to the company and it was good eats and convo and I had a Sunrise for the first time, pretty damned good...and so, here I am, back at square one...
I want to go to sleep while watching TV and have the timer set so it can automatically shut off like 10 min after I knock out, but alas, I have no remote for this stupid TV...DANGIT! And all the universal remotes I've seen don't have a timer setting...for what reason, I have absolutely no clue. I hate when you have like a perfect plan, or what seems to ME to be a perfect plan, but hey, that's all that matters anyway, and you can't execute it. That's like liking a girl you can never have anything with...it just sucks! Ha ha ha, anyway, so w/ that plan spoiled...I must go w/ plan B and read before sleeping...which is equally as cool as "rotting my brain" til I drift into sleepland. But it would be kinda cool to have alternatives...
Lesson of the day
Don't show your eagerness to prove a point to people, play it cool and then, surprise them...
Appreciations of the day
-"Multi-facetedness"
-People who give you courtesy waves
-New Jazz CD's
-Dodger games, and the social atmosphere @ the game
