Wide awake

I have a glass of wine in me. And my body screams “Go to bed already you stupid bitch.” But my mind ain’t having any of that. I’m tired. But my brain is racing. I can’t seem to turn off the music that keeps popping into my head. I guess that’s just me adjusting to having music device in my life again. Brandon bought me a beginner’s kit of Lexar JumpDrive Sport MP3 player. Stick a USB flash drive into your computer, get your music, and stick the drive into the player. The one we bought only have room for...

Life as a Cubicle Rat

My boss’ assistant occasionally would turn into my cubicle out of habit. So that was entertaining. 🙂 I’m still trying to get my bearing of sitting out in a noticeably noisier area, but I’m sure I’d get over that soon. I don’t miss the view too much yet because at least I can get to look out the window when I go up to visit with my boss’ assistant. The real task has just begun for me. We found a huge box of CDs, floppy disks, and ZIP disks from the marketing lady before me. I’ve started going through all...

Earthquake? Here? Really?

Of all the day I could be sick, it’s today. And so I missed being on the 34th floor Downtown LA when the Yucaipa earthquake hit at a 5.3. My coworkers reported in that they felt it big time. Will have more first-hand account tomorrow when I “interviewed” my coworkers. As for me down here on the 2nd floor apartment in Long Beach, I didn’t feel a damn thing. Then again, I’m not attuned to the earthquakes unless it is super obvious. Brandon called and asked if I felt anything. He said the building was swaying a bit down in...
