I did quite well during the day today until around 2 p.m. I was creating a special project Powerpoint presentation with my coworker who was telling me what to type up. At some point he’d think about it or word the sentence out loud. I started to nod off, unconsciously. I was staring at the monitor one second and startling myself awake the next. “I’m sorry, Coworker. I fell asleep and missed what you just said. Can you please repeat that? Actually, wait. Hold that thought.” I got up and jumped around in my cubicle as if I was in...

Obviously, I’m trying to beat jetlag by making myself as tired as possible. Then again, I have a lot I wanted to do on the computer tonight. So, that’s good for me. Bad for the lonely boy in my bed.

Over in the Phillippines, a volcano is about to erupt. If it does, it’d send up ashes for my flight to fly around. *Update* Super Typhoon Saomai is making landfall around midnight in China, south of Shanghai. …This is going to make an interesting flight… Over in Bangkok, the weather forecast spells rain and thunderstorm all week and therefore we’ll be flying in the rain and thunders when I land. I’m getting on the plane in 6 hours. All of this had better blown over. Maybe I need to reinforce Bonine with valium. Or somebody please knock me out. Help...

“Fantastic” is my favorite word of the moment. Fan-tastic. Fan-fucking-tastic! I. Love. It! Like Sebastian Bach said on Supergroup, “It just rolls off your tongue.” That, and “Thwack”. Thwack that tennis ball. Thwack him in the head. Give it a few thwacks. That sort of thing. And, I won a free lunch from Marcello’s today. Yey, me!...

Because I have nothing going in life but working, prepping for the trip, thinking about mom, being pissed at my jackass brother. Brandon is my rock right now. In his own way, he’s keeping me sane. We’ve gone out and done things outside the house all weekend. Partly because the apartment was so damn hot, but I know also that he wanted to make me feel better. The truth is, I’m scared. When I went home last time to see mom, I sort of expected to see her in worse shape. You know, sunken cheeks and bald head. I had...
