I am cold start...
The sky looks miserable. And smoking outside while there is ash floating about all over the place probably isn't the best idea either. But i have to stave off this hunger until after I get my blodwork done in an hour. Man, I'm so hungry...grumble grumble grumble. I remember in Zelda when there's a guy in one of the labyrinths(I think it was level 6) that says, "grumble grumble gumble..." For the longest time I couldn't figure out what the hell I was supposed to do about that. I would hit him w/ my sword and I would just get hurt...and then like 2 days later, I realized, duh, just give him some meat. Anyway, I digress...the sky looks really bad. We are in desperate need of some rain. 3 of the Santa Clarita fires might merge into one super-fire...it's like the perfect storm...for fires. Scary. I'm praying for all my friends and family who have been affected by the fires. I really hope everything is contained soon.
When busy-ness dominates
Work is gettin crazier by the minute. I am now heading 3 different projects, all of which I have to procure resources for within the next week. It's a little bit of a struggle to fight for resources when everyone's dipping into the same pool. It's time to be assertive and demand what I need from the powers that be..because the success of these projects will really affect future business. Man, I feel like an adult. I have to fly out to San Jose on Thursday for a meeting, just for the day. So weird. It's like in movies when people fly out real quick...I never thought it was really possible. I would've stayed the night to hang out w/ Nam, but she hasn't been responding and I have to get back anyway for Dorothy and Henry's wedding rehearsal. I really need to practice the songs for the wedding...krikey!
A breath of fresh air...
Have you ever had one of those people in your life that, for lack of any better words, can only be described as, refreshing? Weird word to use, I know...but it's true. It's like taking in a breath of fresh air, and you just feel a little uplifted a bit when you run into them? Well, this weekend, I ran into one of those refreshing people. I was at a party, just chillin...I wasn't particularly sad, or down or anything. I was fighting with a bit of a cold and a sore throat(which would get worse as the night went on), but at this point in the day, I was okay. And then I ran into my friend, Cheryl, from back in the day. I can never fully emphasize what a small world it is, to constantly run into people from your various circles in the same place. She lives in OC and barely ever goes out...so one time she's out, we run into each other. Granted, it' all southern cali, but the odds are still pretty crazy. Anyway, we see each other and greet, and she was all smiles, as usual. She seemed geniunely excited to see me and I felt the same way. I love seeing old friends. I don't know what exactly it is about her, but she is one of those people that totally makes you feel like things are all good, definitely good company. Well, it had been a while since we saw each other last, so we just gave the Cliff Notes version of what's been goin on the past couple of years. We talked and had a few smokes...probably didn't last for more than 20 minutes. Eventually, she had to go back to her party and I had to go back to mine, but I walked away a little bit cheerier than I had the 20 minutes prior. Like I said, I wasn't down or irritated or anything, but I just had to smile afterward....like a breath of fresh air. There are several other "refreshing" people out there in my life...no need for mention, but props to you people...as Joe Deertay would say, "Keep on keepin on."
Manifested opportunities
Is it truly possible to think something and it really happen? A lot of people chaulk it up to coincidence, or signs, or whatever. I think it's so cool, like I'll be thinking about one of my friends, and then I get a text from them or I'll be really hungry and then all of the sudden a burger appears out of nowhere. Okay, the latter isn't true, but that would be pretty sweet. I think my hunger is really starting to take over. I can smell someone eating cup 'o noodles and I just want to go to their cube and jack them. But yeah, manifested opportunities...thinking something and making it happen. I really do think that if you put your mind to something, you really can do it...it's the age-old cliche, but it's true. In a way, we manifest our own opportunities...by action. We're always saying to ourselves, I wish I could do this...or I need to volunteer more, but we never do it. So how about putting a little action behind those words? Because what use is a thought w/o action? I don't really know wtf I'm talking about here...just rambling, trying to pass time.
This is cool. Find out which side of the brain you lean on.
