Fluffy Bunnies

2:04am: meep!
my parietal lobe just started hurting...

okay, so i don't actually know which part of my brain that is, but suffice it to say i have a headache. i'm trying to finish writing my patent (which is due in 21 hours) before going to sleep so that i can review it tomorrow rather than having to write it. i need to sleeeeep...

*clunk*

d'oh, i just fell over. good night.

1:03am: oh yeah
i was originally planning to post about some other stuff, but it's all the usual blather about work and life and how i'm busy, and that just seems so inane right now. i think i just need to sleep for a while.

yeah. i'm sobering up too much and need to go to bed before i start thinking too much. (oops! too late...)

12:12am: boys are dumb
but then again, so are girls. what gives? two friends are having the same problem: they like a boy who has been a friend for some time. the topic of deepening that relationship and "taking it to the next level" had been broached. said boys didn't want the hassle and effectively said 'meh' to the whole thing... now said girls are sad. and i don't like it when my friends are sad. i had to pinch the two boys today to defend the girls, even tho i like both of the boys. but it still upsets me that everyone is dumb. no one can predict the future and not experiencing wonderful things just because things might not work out later seems completely ridiculous. bah! if i thought that way, i wouldn't be married right now. i decided to take what i could get and cherish the moments i had rather than lamenting about the fate of future moments and whether they would be, or not. and now those four friends are all awkward around each other. what a pain!

2:50am: my butt is not an antenna...
because apparently when i put my cell in my back pocket, i no longer get reception.

12:08am: so sleeeeepy
i guess because i'm so busy? maybe? you think? nah....

so last week was my first as the manager of the pub, and i think it went well. we had a huge bbq planned for the new students on sunday. of course, it was pouring down rain too. we had bought enough food to feed an army or three and didn't think anyone would show. there were about 10 of us there, and they would have had to eat 75 burgers AND 75 hotogs each to finish all the food. thankfully, i would only have had to eat all 50 veggie patties. it's good to be vegetarian sometimes. :D

3:11am: for eriador117

10:41pm: i can't believe i ate the whole thing...
wow. just came back from finale and gorging myself on their restaurant week speciality... wow... talk about a sugar high. and i just took off my skirt; if i let everything relax, i look like i'm 4-5 months pregnant!! *kick kick* knock it off, coco! but that only happens when i'm reaallly full, thank goodness. it'll all recompress by morning (i hope).

i did indulge in the molten magic chocolatey goodness tho, and yep, it's just as marvelous even in the context of other deserts. gah. my mind goes numb when it's in my mouth. in a good way, of course.

2:44am: i'm so thirsty
weee, just got back from karaoke at my pub... turns out, i'm going to become the manager this monday. i don't like that they're not giving the current guy any notice. they're just taking his keys and saying buh-bye. i hope he at least gets severance, but i doubt it. i feel really bad for him... he's totally going to hate me.

i also got a massage after work, to help my ailing back, etc. it was very deep, and now my bum is very sore (she did a lot of deep tissue work around my hips). hopefully it'll help tho. she seemed confident and i liked her style better than this other guy i've been seeing, so maybe i'll switch to her. all massage therapists seem to be a little spacey. i guess you have to be a little weird to want to be touching strangers so intimately, but still. quite interesting folk on the whole. and unfortunately, because of my back, i've met my share.

bah, i still need to pack, and figure out which sari to bring, and write instructions for z to feed the bunbuns and SLEEP and then work an 8-hour day, then get to the airport and wait in a huge friggin' line, and...... yeah, you know the rest.

9:15pm: yeehaw?
i'm off to alabamer for the weekend to visit the in-laws. should be a grand ol' time, full of fun and happiness and pretty flowers and candy canes. i'm being facetious, in case you couldn't tell... bah. i'm not looking forward to the hassle at the airports followed by three hour flight followed by two hour drive either... and then reverse that for monday morning.

12:14am: i'm hip!
i just took a funny funny quizzymajig on one of my favoritest music blogs, Gorilla vs. Bear. apparently, i am on the cusp of 'hip', albeit still pretty nerdy, when it comes to my music. i admit, i extract a certain amount of glee when i find an awesome band that no one else has heard of, but i guess what makes me less hip is that i then force it on share it with others, rather than sitting on it and waiting for others to catch on before saying 'ha, i heard of them first, therefore i am infinitely cooler than you. pbbt.'

i got a 45. what did you get?

10:52pm: hrm...
i need a space of my own some times.... just somewhere to be by myself and do my art and practice guitar. it's very difficult to do those things when your boy is sitting on the couch watching justice league episodes back-to-back-to-back-to... it's also difficult to explain why i'm drawing a picture of snarry to someone who doesn't comprehend snarry, or know that i like snarry... *g* e.g.:

'whatcha doin?'
'uh, oh.. nuthin'
'whatcha drawin'?'
'oh, i'm just doodling... something i had in my head...'
*comes over shoulder to look at the paper upright*
'hey, those are two guys!'
'um, no they're not... this one's a girl. see the long hair?'
'you should work on making her curvier then...'
...
'and why doesn't she have breasts?'
'uhh... they haven't come in yet? it's just a sketch. i just haven't gotten to the fleshing out part yet... yeah. that's the ticket.'
'whatever. what are they doing anyway? wrestling?'
'yeah, wrestling... and some pilates. do you know pilates?'
'no'
'yeah, that's pilates. hey, look! you've got another episode of justice league starting!'
'ooh, yay!'

i sometimes dream about renting my own little studio apartment to escape to, but, i don't have anywhere near enough funds for that. hence why it remains a dream. *sigh* someday.

9:37pm: balle balle?
or not... so, i do bhangra, teach it and dance it, and have done so for the past four years. i was planning to do it again for the annual india's independence day performance, but quit a couple weeks ago. i quit because this year's organizers were being totally rude to people, acting like it was a team competition, and leaving everything until the last moment. i went to watch the performance today to support a friend who had stuck with the dance, and i'm glad i left. it was very messy and hectic and a litany of other things.

but on a better note, i spent a couple of hours sitting out on the esplanade this afternoon, working on an art project, napping, and reading a magazine, and only two sketchy guys tried to talk to me... an improvement, in my book. that's part of the peril of sitting by myself in a public place, i suppose.

but now i'm eating a strawberry pop and wathing the first episode of the firefly series, so it's a good end to the weekend.

7:43pm: yucky
i hate icky old men who stand too close behind me on the subway and keep snorfing in my ear, like they've got a boogey stuck and they're trying to dislodge it. i almost upchucked my banana. fortunately, i only had to go one stop. couldn't get out the door fast enough.

10:45pm: uhh.... yeah.
so much for that whole 'posting regularly' thing, eh?

oh well. not much of interest has been happening i suppose. i'm still waiting to take over the manager position at the pub. something about mismatched schedules when it comes to making the meeting with the current manager to fire the poor guy.

i've been reading watership down, and it makes me look at my bunnies in a whole new light. it's a wonderful book. i can tell that zen bunny would be the leader, tufty would be the fighter, & possible mutineer, and spaz would be, well, the spaz. she's good at it. i'm glad that the book has them acting like real bunnies would, plus talking, rather than humanizing their actions, or ignoring the bunny basics, like passing hraka and chewing pellets. mmm, pellets. my bunnies would never survive in the wild, unfortunately. they need their bunny-crack (papaya tablets) fix far too often.

i'm sure some other stuff is going on in my head, but i'm too distracted by all the various things i need to do to be eloquent about them. i have some art plans, and two dances worth of choreography developing in my head. i keep going to live shows, and that makes me want to practice my guitar. and i've been swimming lots too. i need to figure out some way to increase resistance, because it's getting too easy. i'm not sure how to get faster.

k, that turned out to be more that i thought. i'm off to bed now...

6:28pm: gotta love craigslist
i just had a 5-hour lunch with a girl i met on craigslist... :)

neither of us realized how much time had passed, either. we met around noon, had sandwiches and iced mochas, and just kept talking about anything and everything. she used to be a reporter, so was pretty good at keeping the questions coming, but i remembered to ask her some too. starting around 4 o'clock, we both kept kind of mentioning that we should probably go, but didn't, and when we finally did get up from the table, we ended up standing outside the cafe talking for another half hour!

it was cool. :) can't wait 'til next time...

12:09am: oh my goonies!
i'm actually starting to post regularly!

but now i forgot what i was going to post about.... i got distracted by my bunny pulling my (stuffed) monkey off the shelf and then sitting on it. silly bunny!

oh well... i guess it wasn't that interesting...

10:11pm: glub
i had a good weekend this weekend... my wetsuit arrived on friday, and i went to the beach with some buds on saturday. i'm very floaty now! didn't even have to tread water. it also made my feet much higher than i'm used to, so i splashed more than propelled when i kicked, but i'm used to using mostly my arms anyhow. triathlon (just the swim), here i come!

then i watched the final world cup game on sunday at that other bar, but there were only ~10 people there, so it was nice and uncrowded. i had my strawberry fruitsicle and my sam summer, and i was happy.

today at work i spit up 6 pages of brain matter in an effort to document the work i've been doing on this project. i felt a little fuzzy afterwards. and i'm only halfway through. ideally i'll be able to finish tomorrow and be done with it. then back to graphic design stuffs.

i ate a mint and dark chocolate waffle cookie thingy for dessert. yum, but now i'm a wee bit hyper.....

12:13am: hooray, beer!
work is going so well, i can't believe it. all my stuff is working, and my manager and ceo are continualy impressed. i like it. my manager bought me an ice cream today as a thank you. a strawberry micro sundae from tosci's no less! yumsies.

i'm also about to embark on a new adventure as manager of a local pub in my spare time. i'm excited. i used to be a bartender there, and i miss it and want to take care of it and make sure it's a happy happy bar. all the current bartenders are stoked, which makes me feel good, of course.

i'm going to bed now so i can get to work bright and early!! (so, around 10a... i have really flexible hours)

8:54am: heavenly bliss
wow... i had the most amazing chocolate cake last night for my birthday... seriously. it was like an orgasm for my mouth, from the first bit to the last. the molten cake from finale desserts is divine. if it didn't have so many calories, sex would have a serious competitor.

7:59am: yadda yadda
so i started a new job, and haven't had much time for anything else. i have decided to practice my guitar more often though, to hopefully get good enough to not be embarrassed to play in front of other people. i also just bought a skateboard (a mini longboard to be precise) for commuting to work. these plans, in conjunction with how i check out girls all the time, lead me to believe i am turning into a teenage boy. :/ i guess it could be worse. at least my voice doesn't crack and i don't have any outward indicators of inappropriate arousal! ooh, and the lack of facial hair is good too.

4:28pm: my first entry...
so we'll see how it goes...

i like to do art. maybe i'll get my butt in gear and do some. i've seen some requests for illustrations to accompany various snarry fics that i have read, so maybe i'll start there.

wish me luck.
