Cursed...

...no more.

Luckily (or unluckily) my birthday inevtiably falls on or around Carnival.  Every year everybody asks me what I want for my birthday.  I always reply I don't need anything.

Shhh....don't tell anybody but there's one thing I think about every year.


 



















#1 ASA Boof 4 years in a row.
(Boof because Asians can't pronounce Booth)

ASA Boof Monopolizin' Since 2004

Sam, Mike, Angel, Chris, Marina, Connie, and the rest of ASA.  Thanks for making an old man proud, and thanks for making my last Carnival worth it.

Har Har...

My mom sent me this one...I wonder if she sent it to my dad.

  INSTALLING HUSBAND
 
  Dear Tech Support:
  Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and noticed a
  distinct slow down in overall system performance -- particularly in
  the flower and jewelry applications, which operated flawlessly under
  Boyfriend 5.0.
  In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many valuable programs, such as
  Romance 9.5 and Personal Attention 6.5 and then installed
  undesirable programs such as NFL 5.0, NBA 3.0, and Golf Clubs 4.1.
  Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and Housecleaning 2.6 simply
  crashes the system. I've tried running Nagging 5.3 to fix these
  problems, but to no avail.
  What can I do?
   Signed,
  Desperate

  Dear Desperate:
 
  First keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment Package, while
  Husband
  1.0 is an Operating System. Please enter the command: "http: I
  Thought You Loved Me.html" and try to download Tears 6.2 and don't
  forget to install the Guilt 3.0 update. If that application works as
  designed, Husband 1.0 should then automatically run the applications
  Jewelry 2.0 and Flowers 3.5.
  But remember, overuse of the above application can cause Husband 1.0
  to default to Grumpy Silence 2.5, Happy Hour 7.0 or Beer 6.1. Beer
  6.1 is a very bad program that will download the Snoring Loudly
  Beta.
  Whatever you do, DO NOT install Mother-in-law 1.0 (it runs a virus
  in the background that will eventually seize control of all your
  system resources). Also, do not attempt to reinstall the Boyfriend
  5.0 program. These are unsupported applications and will crash
  Husband 1.0.
             In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does
  have limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly. You
  might consider buying additional software to improve memory and
  performance. We recommend Food 3.0 and Hot Lingerie 7.7.
 
  Good Luck, Tech Support


On a separate note I'm heading to Vancouver to see my family! Yay! Anybody else going to be there this thanksgiving?

Bad day...

I'm sick (lungs are filled with some mucus), stuck in middle-of-nowhere Jersey, and I found out my my cat, ziggy, was let out of the house by mistake.  Today is not a good day.

late night procrastination...

can't sleep right now...i used to never have a problem sleeping. but now i'm sitting in bed looking out at the river. hmm i think i'm just procrastinating in sleeping. i've cleaned my bathroom, did the dishes, swept and mopped my floor, vacuumed my carpet, changed my sheets, febreezed everything, setup my humidifer, windexed the windows, and organized my dresser. here are some late night chats i've had recently with some very good friends:

[few days ago]
Friend: I think it's just not time for you
Friend: I don’t think you know who you are yet
Friend: I think on your way to success you try to be the person they are comfortable with
Friend: you change but you don’t’ feel like it's you
Friend: and you try to push that lie away
me: I think you hit it right there
Friend: when you go to interviews you try to alter your personality to satisfy the position their looking for
me: on the dot
Friend: I think you just applied it to your own life
Friend: you didn’t keep it separate from work and personal
Friend: I feel that you always have this tendency you want to belong
me: thank you
me: for telling me that
me: I think you articulated it perfectly
Friend: I think you bottle it up a lot
Friend: you just overwhelm yourself with work and try not to think about things
Friend: but when things start slowing down that's when it hits you
me: I run at 100mph
me: and then I slow down
me: I start thinking for once
Friend: yea
Friend: sucks
me: I should be thinking all the time
me: <-- empty headed
Friend: but I don’t think you like to analyze yourself
Friend: you think you're fine the way you are

[tonight]
me: do you know who i am?
pat: i think i have a good understanding of who you are
me: really?
pat: well you know who you are, but you don't want to face up to it. you're afraid of waking up one day and realizing what you've become. when it comes down to it you've become just like me but slightly different. you don't want that. you told me before that you would be perfectly happy to drive a cab if it made you happy. you're just not happy with who you've become.

i guess at some point we all have to wake up/grow up. i'm glad i have friends who can be totally honest with me. actually i'm just glad i have friends. thank you.
