that'll do, pig
my dad had his surgery yesterday and it was successful. he’s in the icu now and he seems like he’s going to recover 100%, if not more! i’ve been staying long hours at the hospital, keeping him company and etc. i have never been so exhausted in my life though. yesterday i got back from the hospital around 2am. my mom’s been leaving the same time but getting there earlier. my...
longest day of my life
okay, so maybe i’m being dramatic, but fuck, i had one long ass day.
so my dad recently had a stroke or something and he didn’t know about it. he also has an epidural hematoma and he’s scheduled for surgery tomorrow (later today, 12 hours from now actually). they’re going to drill holes in his skull if there isn’t a giant ass clot. if there is a clot, then...

– an excerpt from jared’s update from today. broke my heart and made me tear.
swap magic
it’s been so long since i’ve pirated anything that my skills left me. i made so many n00b mistakes today getting a game to play on my ps2 that it cost me more than $25. okay, so maybe i’m being dramatic, but had i remembered NOT to listen to those fucktards on the internet, i would not have gone out to buy a spindle of cheap ass dvd-r’s. i used to know it doesn’t...
back to school?
i may possibly do this very soon, but take photography and production classes. i want to learn about lighting and all that jazz. or apply for a teaching program. sigh, I KNOW, but seriously, desperate times call for desperate measures.
today i grilled another steak dinner. i made my own marinade this time instead of buying a $5 bottle at the market. i used hoisin sauce, rice wine, sesame oil,...
stinky, but mine
man, i miss my cats.

chain of fuckery
next on my finish-old-videogames-you-own kick is that kingdom hearts, chain of memories game for the gameboy. wow, how many years has this been? maybe 5? i am too scared to calculate. well, at least it’s not 10 years like some other games i’ve been playing.
naturally i’ve been playing on the ds, and now my fingers ache like a bitch. i hate this game! i actually hate all portable...
for $10000...

don’t ask why i looked this up. it’s early and i’m waiting to get on a plane. bleh.
weed
sometimes i feel like i’m one of maybe 10 people that i know in my age group that does not care for smoking pot. it just doesn’t do it for me. in fact, i think it mellows me out way too much that i end up falling asleep, or upset with a headache. i don’t get why it’s so amazing, but i guess it’s like asking why people drink alcohol. different vices, same buzz?

mib
i wonder how many times i’ve declared my love for mib on this blog?
he’s such an amazing writer. it shames me to admit that i do not own a copy of any of his books.
i was googling, and came across an interesting photo. his wife is like a giant in comparison to him, and he’s 5’11” supposedly. damn all of these tall people. he also needs to update his imdb photo....
the hunt continues
a couple of weeks ago, i scored an interview with a pretty interesting company. i went and met 5 different people. as i was leaving, the dude tells me that they’re considering me for other positions as well, and that he’ll call me in a couple of days.
so after a week and a half, i gave up and moved on. i felt really good about the interviews and was kind of depressed that i...
insomnia
right now i’m watching e!s sexiest pop divas. joel stein is one of the c/d-list comedians doing the commentary, and i love him to death, but MAN, he just said something about mariah carey that made me cringe.
i don’t follow him on twitter (i actually don’t believe in twitter really), but i’ve bookmarked it, and most of his posts are miss.
when i was 15, i remember picking...
