If my computer runs the DVD/CD burner program once, not only it wouldn’t open again after I close it, but somehow it causes Photoshop to not launch. So, here I went, rebooting. While waiting for it, I glanced at the few pictures of my mom on my wall. I went into Nhien’s office and cried. Just a little bit. But I mean, I was just rebooting the computer, for god’s sake! I mean, what the heck? Grief is fucking sneaky....

…oh god. My social calendar is about to run off the frickin’ track. Hi. I’ve just gotten home tonight after a happy hour with my coworkers and some other new friends like El Heffe, Robb and Al the Dancing Fools from Girls Night Out, and newer friends I made at the bar, Joe Trojan and Morgan the Hater. I even ran into that one dude who came out drinking with us once at the Edison…whatever his name was. (Sorry, man.) So yeah. Last Friday, I was turning into a pumpkin somewhere on the 605 after dropping Celeste off. We had...

Friday night out with the girls in Downtown LA. Holy shit did we have a great time! Takami was fantastic and Elevate was hoppin’ once the DJ arrived. We met some cool new people after trying in vain to get rid of some assholes. So much fun! Saturday, B and I ran some errands which I ended with a bottle of Limoncello in one hand and tawny port in the other. And then I fell in love with a condo 2 doors down from us. They had an open house and these two cats totally indulge our curiosity. Guys, I...

Dear John David, [with ETA here…last night when I started the entry, I was on the way out to see a movie and I had 3 shots of limoncello so I couldn’t really write.] You can NOT be a USC quarterback and try to grow a beard. Haven’t you learn from when Carson and Matt tried back in the days? Every time those boys attempt to grow beard, their games suffered. Uncharacteristic suckage came with that beard, my friend. 27-24 against the Huskies isn’t a victory. Luck is on our side. I mean, did someone slipped out of the stadium...

Amy the Gridiron Goddess, my Cardinal and Gold blood sister and an all around good friend, took over KROQ this morning for a good few minutes of football talk. Here’s the podcast. And she’s about a third of the way in. Now, YOU write to KROQ and tell them how cool she is. Tell Kevin, Bean, Ralphs, Psycho Mike, Alex, Lightning, and even Lisa @ kroq.com that they need to have the Goddess on every Friday to talk football. And go Trojans! Beat the Huskies!!!...

For 14 years you have never let me down. But I guess 14 years is a long time. I was only a few days ago when we got together last. This morning, as I stood in front of my vanity, I held you in my hands as you took your last breath. RIP my faithful hairdryer. You have served me well. P.S. Who knew that a well positioned space heater works fantastically in drying you hair!...
