Bear Grylls needs my help!
So I was checking my email just now and saw this VERY IMPORTANT message!:
(click to make big!)
OH MY GOD. Bear Grylls needs MY help! I got to get on this shit STAT.
So I clicked it right away to see what was up.
What the fuck? He has his own clothing line? No fucking way. How was I not aware of this before? I was intrigued so I clicked the link.
The survey was actually pretty neat. On the...
I overslept!
I took a nap after dinner and woke up at 1 am. FUCK. And I find out that the email server pooped out around midnight, so I had to look through my Blackberry for emails, which actually wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Thank god for that search by sender function.
I just hope that all of my work between 1am and 2am were not in vain and that the server is making the changes right at...
Good night
Isn’t it hilarious that I am so happy when the server is behaving properly even though that means I’m working through midnight on Monday?
All of my entries seem to be work-related. Wow, I just started, but I already feel like I need a vacation.
In other fantastic news, I bought the most awesome watch ever. I also spent over $300 this weekend. I needed some retail therapy—FOR...
It's 1230 am on Sunday
And I’m working!
Or I would like to, but a file in the server is corrupt! They taught me how to fix that problem last week, BUT a workstation is locked into it so I can’t even do that.
FUCK.
Having an IT team for our department is fucking pointless if no one is doing their job!
I am so fucking fragile right now. My period is here—got it while I was about to try on a pair of...
It's 1pm on Saturday.
And I’m WORKING.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
OH MY FUCKING GOD.
Yes, I had a dream about work!
I’ve had a few work-related dreams since I started at this company. The first one was all about Excel. It was actually kind of funny in retrospect, but it felt more like a nightmare as I was dreaming it.
The second dream that I can remember clearly was getting to fire the Vlookup girl. OH MAN, that was so awesome. We’re friends now, and more importantly I’m her boss—so...
Only in dreams
The night before last was not a great night. It was the second night that I had my Blackberry and I failed to remember to set it to silent at night. I woke up so many times over the night trying to figure out what the heck was vibrating. Each time I woke up, I would look at all of the new emails that came in and fall back asleep before getting up five minutes later. This pretty much happened over...
Perks
Yesterday was kind of interesting.
I got a Blackberry—something I’ve kind of always wanted (well, not with the company, but on a personal level). It’s actually pretty cool. I love Blackberry Messenger. At first I didn’t think it was that much fun, but I can’t believe how many of my friends are actually on this thing! It’s like IMing on your phone. Neat.
But...
Promoted
So they announced it officially today…
…and I led my first conference call…
…then I proceeded to hyperventilate AFTER the call.
God, I am too socially awkward that it’s actually causing me physical pain! Wow, this is definitely a new low.
I don’t want to be one of those people that need inhalers and pills to calm my anxiety, but I think I am getting there.

I try to be clever...

Probably one of the shittiest days
Man, yesterday has been one of the worst days I’ve had in a LONG time.
There has only been one other time that I can recall when I just wanted a beer, and for the first time, I wanted a beer and a cigarette. It’s just bizarre how I have a feeling those things will make me relax and unwind. Wow, way to go subliminal advertising.
Anyway, the day started off with missing out on an...
Fuck you, Los Angeles!
Keanu Reeves was going to present a showing of The Matrix at the ArcLight for some special event for the AFI. Tickets went on sale at midnight 9/17 and some fucking turds bought them all by 1am. WHAT THE FUCK? The crazy thing is that tickets are like $25 a pop! That’s kind of expensive just to see a god damn movie we’ve all seen a million times already. And it’s not like Keanu is...

SUPER CUTE.
Wanted
I finally saw it, and I was not impressed. I knew going in not to expect much, but it really couldn’t hold my attention. I was playing Tetris and chatting away while it was on in the background and I still felt like I didn’t miss out on any special effects or you know, the “story.”
But Angelina Jolie was one hot potato! Soooo beautiful. Jennifer Aniston, he climbed that...
“You guys are all bitches and ho’s!”

The Movies--spoilers!
I saw Hellboy 2 the other day and I have to admit that I was very entertained…up until the part when we find out Liz is pregnant…and then again at the part when we find out it’s with TWINS.
Is anyone else weirded out by the fact that Hellboy has potent swimmers? I mean, I guess I didn’t know the character very well (heck never even heard of him until the first film was...
Something's Gotta Give
I watched this movie about two old people falling in love just because I love Keanu Reeves.
If I didn’t know any better, this is symptomatic of a horrible addiction—or better known as KEANU WHORE.
And I’m completely OK with that. ABSOLUTELY.

Just a small dose of what work is like everyday
Mo' froyo foo
Tonight I had frozen yogurt from Nubi for dinner…and a Subway sandwich for dessert. It was the best dinner EVER.
Yes, I’m 5 years old.
This is making me super hyper.
“I was like, ‘Who is that cute Asian boy?’ But then I recognized the...”

Even though they tell me Fatty is a chick, I’m still going to name her Jack Bauer.
I’ve had this song stuck in my head for a...
Goddamnit, Jack Bauer. You really are the man.
Long week. I feel like I’ve been working 10 hour days, but I know that can’t be right. Well, it’s either that or I don’t want to admit it.
Weekend plans? It’s the last weekend for Body Worlds, so I’m going to check that out. I may also go to the LA Gun Club on Sunday because my baby sister wants the experience. I’ve fired a gun a few times in my life, but...
WatchThis has got to be my favorite episode. There are simply no words to describe how hilarious “Night Man” is. I can’t wait until season 4 starts up again.
WatchOne of my favorite episodes.
My Life's Golden Age
OH MY GOODNESS. He looks incredible.
He’s in another drama called “My Life’s Golden Age.”
HAHAHA.
You want to know something hilarious?
I haven’t even watched “Three Dads One Mom,” let alone finish “Thank You.” OKAY. I’ll get around to it after I finish “Always Sunny in Philadelphia.” This show is fucking awesome. I had forgotten how great it was. I seriously have the biggest crush on...
Keanu Reeves is 44
That picture NEVER gets old.
I found this really creepy, yet great Keanu Reeves fansite [link]. It’s like a gold mine for Keanu paparazzi pics. I can’t wait for his next movie to come out! LOVE HIM.

I’ve decided upon my future zipcode. I am in love with Mount Washington and I don’t want to live anywhere else.
I really mean it this time. A few months ago, I was so damn sure I wanted to leave California to do some soul searching and much needed growing up. My plans included an eventual return to California after 5 years. But then I had a much needed talk with a really good friend...
