I’m bitter. You can ask me why. A disappointment of a major scale has occurred. It was like passing out before giving birth to a baby, missing out on the glorious moment you’ve been waiting for for months. It’s really, really hard to get over. So I’ve been cranky around the office, stressed out around the house, and overall one angry and bitter ray of outward sunshine to everyone. My attempt to release stress at my yoga class was also squelched. It seems I have twisted my left hand on Tuesday. I couldn’t put my weight on it and it...

St. Patty’s was a hit both at work and at home. A great turn out at the office with everything from cookies to green deviled eggs. 9 people showed up at my doors for the Guinness Stew and a little bit of drinking. The old gang hung out well with my new friends from Tweet Up, Annette @dananner and Wyatt @phraktyl. A lesson we learned? Don’t ever give Phraklet, Phraktyl’s son, a Mountain Dew. Ever. Again. LOL. I didn’t drink all that much at St. Patty’s. Just an Irish Car Bomb I did with Annette and Wyatt and a couple...

After 16 years of going home to my family dentist every year, someone else got to look at these pearly…well…ivories. (Whitening these puppies? Not a chance! Not my natural coloring.) After 16 years of being in the U.S., my teeth finally have been touched by American dentists. That’s right. Dentists. Plural. Three of them. All in one day too. Originally, I was supposed to go to the orthodontist consultation appointment then go to work. But then I had this mild sore throat and been tired all over since yesterday, so I decided to just stay home after the appointment. As...

Just got back from seeing Watchmen with Brandon and Lee. Lee, who is a big fan of the graphic novel, gave it a 4 out of 5. She said if we liked this, we definitely have to get the book, which we intend to do just that. Wow. What a revelation! It was stylized just enough. Violent in all the necessary places. I might need to talk to somebody about my mental state because Rorschach is definitely my hero now. Trailers were also massively awesome. Possibly the best line up of trailers: Wolverine, Star Trek, Terminator, and, for some of...

I was up all night last night. It wasn’t 4:30 a.m. before I crawled back into bed. It started with me coming home hungry and decided on eating two-day-old deep-fried salt cured fish (Plah Dad Deaw Todd) with rice. I figured, it’s cured and it’s only two days old. I’ve eaten worse. A combination of having inhaled my dinner and possibly bad fish caused quite a reaction. Like I tweeted earlier, the fish was swimming upstream all night and is still threathening to go downstream as well. I tried to sleep but I couldn’t. As to not to bug Brandon,...

I was wishing I had more time each day at the office this past week. Sure, I am gearing up for the first of this year’s conferences my work put on. But good god, I have never felt like I wanted to stay at work. Then again, having quite a busy social schedule during a stressful week doesn’t seem to help either. This weekend came with the rain. All I wanted to do is hide. And I did for most of it. Well, my allergies was partly to blame on Saturday. Today, my 4 loads of laundry is holding me...
