I am a cobweb duster...

Man, what is this place? A blog site? Oh man, I think I remember now! I'm supposed to write in this thing!

A day away...
Man, you leave the office for a day and the work sure does pile up. I went to San Jose this past friday for a business meeting w/ some disc-stamping people out in Livermore(yeah, I didn't know where that was at first either, but it's about 30 miles east of San Jo). I come back to my desk on monday and I have ALL this work to do! Man oh man, I wanted to take another day off this week too, but it looks like I'll be much too busy here to be able to do that. Sucks to be the new guy still, everyone else is taking their vacations and leaving me w/ the dirty work...blah.

Oh here's a some stuff that I thought about while I was on my day trip to San Jo. Car renters, I don't know how they ever got around w/o navigation. Maps and just asking for directions? That was tough. And even before that, we used to never have cell phones, how did one call and ask for directions when one was lost? And to think, that was not even 10 years ago and so much has changed since then. Car rentals don't have the greatest nav units, but they do the job and I got around okay. Better than asking around and looking like an idiot...but I still got lost w/ the nav sometimes. Another thing, commuter planes. If you already didn't know, I HATE flying, but it's part of work, and that's how you get to faraway places w/o aging months in the process of traveling thousands of miles. But okay, I hate flying usually, well hate is a strong word, I'm just phobic, my acrophobia bleeds into flying. But commuter planes? Man, those things suck, they're so small! It was one of those ones you actually walk up the stairs to get into. And how is it that me, the smallest dude of all, manages to bump his head like 3 times on the plane? Only me man...only me... But it was a good trip, I got to see Jentot and we caught up and it was cool seeing a friend while out on business trip again.

Shoppin til I drop...
Damn man, I sure am getting sick of shopping. I've been shopping during my lunch hours for the past few days and then afterwards pretty much til the malls are closed. Today, I knocked off a few more people on my list and I believe I have less than 10 to go...hell yeah, almost done. Keep on shopping, keep on shopping....

oh well, there was other stuff I wanted to write about, but I think I left my post-it note where I keep my blog ideas at my desk...hasta manana with the left out thoughts!

"Why am I fighting to live, when I'm just living to die..."
