I left the house with super itchy, sneezy nose. So I took an Alevert. Super itchy, sneezy nose instead turned into a super stuffy nose. So I took a 24-hour Sudafed with 240 mg time releasing pseudoephedrinewhateveritis. Super stuffy nose instead turned into a jabbingly painful, massivly annoying muscle spasm on the right side where my back meets my butt. So I further self medicated with chocolate chip cookie. Achoo! *Sniffle* Ow. Wooooooooooh (suger + Sudafed. A speedy high unlike others!)...

Ah Splenda. Finally a fake sugar that doesn’t leave a bad after taste. I am not a diet soda drinker, but I wouldn’t turn away something that is sweetened by Splenda, or using it to flavor some bland iced tea. I don’t know if anyone else react that same way to Splenda. But after a can of 7-Up Plus, my body is SCREAMING for real sugar. I am diving into the chocolate bowl here at work. Nothing sounds good to snack on except sweet stuff. Perhaps it’s just my sugar processing body freaking out by sugar substitute. My poor body...

Merlin, my royal blue 96 Corolla, is in the shop this morning. He has been choking at start for about month now. At first I thought it may be the battery again, but when the radio comes blaring in, and he didn’t do the click click click click sound like when the battery went out, I knew it was something else. He just plain wouldn’t turn over. But, a few seconds later, he would pick up and purrs like a kitten all over again. Merlin has been like this for about a month. It’s a hit-or-miss situation. I could go...

I am attending a workshop to help me write MY story, my experience as an immigrant, in order to express myself better and to let my voice be heard by Americans. Instead, a few nights ago I posted my opinion and sarcasm on a Thai Students Association message board, I got shot down, pretty much booed off stage for having an opinion and poking fun at the male population in a satiric sort of way. And soon after, the post has been deleted. (But not gone, y’all. By the way, original topic was a job posting indicating “Male only” for...

Is it entire selfish of me to come home at 10:30 and all I wanted was to write on a blog and have 3 Oreo cookies and milk while my hubby hinted at me 3 times he was going to bed? Let’s see. 1 hour commute to work at 7:30 a.m. Worked from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Attended an autobiographical workshop from 7:30-9:30. Dropped off 2 girls from the workshop at their apartments around USC. Got home at 10:30. So 10 minutes of me time. I can live with that....

So we blew $70 on 10-week of yoga classes Brandon never attends. And so far, I blew $21 on the classes I missed. And now I’m trading in the rest of the classes, all $32, to attend a 10-week writing/performing arts workshop that is supposedly free. So the workshop will actually cost me $32 plus the optional parking at USC campus. Remember when I mentioned “My Own Story” workshop a while back? Alex is doing one at USC starting tomorrow night. He called me as I was coming home from work today. 7:30-9:30 p.m. at USC, 10 Thursday nights and...
