Jason's Daily Notes

Weather: Mid-70s and sunny. In early January! This is why we live in LA! Absolutely glorious. (I still can't say "absolutely" normally anymore - I say "ebsolutely" I have the New Zealand "eccent" stuck in my hed. It's messively ennoying sometimes!)

Stayed up late last night uploading pics. I had to (or chose to) drop off/pick up Matthew from his Kendo practice on campus last night. I didn't get to bed until 1:20am. Markus is still staying over; I guess he can stay over the entire week.

7:35am. So hard to wake up, especially with a sleep deficit and with the heater so warm and cozy. I forced myself up, forced down some oatmeal, a banana, and some tea, and after a quick shower, I'm driving to work (for the first time this year, no bus for me!). And I'm back to being stuck in traffic. Ugh, there's inconvenience either way!

I sometimes wish I could be in someone else's mind - you know, just to see what their subjective experiences are like and to really know their motives and thought processes. Do other people think the same way I do? I don't think we'll ever know. Oh philosophy. It's interesting how what was once novel and exciting becomes routine and mundane and often despised. Not that I despise my job, but I'm thinking about how the novelty has worn off. And hosting couchsurfers too... I think I should focus more on building long-lasting friendships/relationships. Maybe I'm just "afraid of commitment"? Maybe I'm just not that into you?!

Call me communist, but I think people should wear name tags more often. It can eliminate a lot of confusion.

Lunch: Leftover Ono BBQ, with tortillas (because there's no rice):


I am so busy today. It's ALMOST overwhelming. Almost. I'm just trying to maintain my casual, laid-back-ness. But productivity beckons! This afternoon, I mailed back Cloyce & Jessica's phone charger, which they left at my apt and which was buried under a pile of my clothes; I also picked up Matthew's pre-ordered video game at Game Stop. Now, back to work. I have to make a binder - pulling each press release, extracting important pages, making everything chronological, printing them out and making labels for the binders themselves. Argh!

Yeah, I should be in finance/econ, not law :/. Work isn't that bad, though; it's just not that exciting.

Random thought: Odd numbers always seemed to me to be more "male"; even numbers, female. (Trying not to get graphic here) Maybe because men have 1 "thingy" while women have a pair of "thingys"?

I've been getting static shocks a lot lately around the office. Must be the dry, warm weather.

MAN it's been so busy lately! I simply cannot even get a day's worth of work done in a day - there aren't enough hours! If that makes sense...

Still at work - 7:30pm. Finished the binder and now posting this blog post. Peace OUT!
