sooooooo bored. i don't know.. today is unusually quiet, but i guess i hear that things are slowing down. hmm. i hear a lot of people are taking tomorrow off, so maybe i will bring entertainment. but there is only so much that i can do just sitting there. i wish i could bring my whole set up and do it while at work.. that would be awesome. but i don't think that it's gonna happen.

so because i'm bored you get the "this is what i did" entries... but not as super lengthy.. i hope :P

this week just feels like a continuation of last week. i'm losing track of time, it's all just blurred together. went to hermosa for a birthday celebration. nothing too rowdy.. just free meals @ henessey's on birthday thursdays!! yay. so instead of beer i ordered a pear cider because it's still sociable and not hard liquor, but something that i can drink without gagging. thanks for the hot tip beth. i figure i'm working my way on to where i think beer is yummerific. do i even want to get to that point? it's easier (and cheaper!) when you just go out for one or two drinks.. and don't want to get crunked. especially because they don't always have pear cider everywhere

friday was work party. it was fun... nothing out of control either.. but i was a bit tipsy.. and poor sakura had to wait for me to sober up to drive back..so she was falling asleep and everyone at my work was giving me funny looks like i was just ignoring her.. but i wasn't. but hopefully she had fun, i really liked the decorations (movie themed) and the director gave out awards for the crew who had been on the movie the whole 2+ years. the food was good (including fruit and chocolate fondue for dessert!) and PLENTY of drinks. i remember everything that night, but it's all a little bit wobbly :P but fun and smiley. :P

saturday, up early to finish the slideshow for a friend's niece's bday. then breakfast meeting for a new project. (wow .. i feel a little professional! :P) and then catching up on desperate housewives at my sister's, home to nap before seeing star wars with ryan, beth, jimmy and other torrance friendlies. i suck and i didn't show up to wait with them (i was sleeping!) but got there in time for the movie. i'm not a huge star wars fan, so i didn't know what to expect. i had heard it was really good, i heard the dialogue was laughable, and i heard that it was more defined line of good vs. bad (vs the other movies.. still haven't seen the 2nd one). i think that it was good, i was confused by a few things, i asked jimmy a lot of questions, over analyzed certain things, and marveled at the wipes that are used that aren't traditionally used in large features. but i think that it's a star wars thing. i found myself wanting to scream out "anakin.. nooooo don't do it!! don't go to the dark side!" which is good that it draws you in.. and you sit there thinking that maybe if you wish enough you can change the inevitable :)

afterwards i rushed over to LA to catch a friend of a friend's band SOFT SUPPLY and 80's cover band... complete with 90's clothes and rockin wigs. love the mullets. i felt kind of out of place and little like i didn't belong because everyone knew all the words to all the songs and very obviously had great memories of these songs at like their school dances or something. a few work friends were there, and this one girl was like "these were my high school songs" and she said she felt like she was 14 again. i definitely enjoyed the songs that i knew, and even the ones i didn't and the show was awesome. they even tossed out headbands for the crowd to wear. it was really fun. AND they had a bubble machine. that is just sprinkles on the sundae.

sunday i had work and then softball.. where a few people flaked and that was not fun. eventually we got our 10 players (thank you last minute subs!) and we still took a little bit of a beating.. i think we're still finding our groove. although the flow has been interrupted because ryan broke his leg! (and sprained it too!) YIKES huh. uh oh. still gotta find replacements and work out other kinks... so.. we'll see. i know it's just a game and just supposed to be for fun.. but.. i dunno.. so many concerns... plus i know i know.. winning is fun.. losing isn't, but playing just to win isn't fun either. i feel like i gotta make more phone calls and crap - but i also don't want to pester people/hold their hands.. so.. i dunno.

tuesday.. you know what happened.. slept through my shift.

yesterday i went to get some software that i need for my projects..which is super exciting. i lugged my computer around all day.. and now it's making a little bit of a humming noise.. on and off.. i hope it's not permanent... it'd kind of go away here and there..so i wasn't quite sure. aww.. my baby :( my computer is pretty sexy though :) set up the system with external drives and dv tape deck. almost feel like a real editor.. but not. haha.. amateur real?

today is slow... dragging.. but i am a little less bored and it's allllllmost time to go. blogging does wonders for boredom sometimes. maybe i'll go read some scripts.. that helps pass time too.
