Jason's Daily Notes

Watched Wet Hot American Summer. It wasn't so bad as I had feared it might be.
Ate ramen. Drove home to Glassell. Traffic at 7:30pm. St. Bernard's meeting.
Home. Bought burrito and quesadilla from Leo's taco truck. Finished the movie. Mom returned.

--
Woke up late ~8:15. Left for work 8:45 => arrived 9:20.
I am tired constantly. And so uninterested in everything.
ENNUI
Organizing finances. Yuck. Car payment, transferring funds between my accounts, etc.
Music: Arctic Monkeys - Mardy Bum; The Vogues - Five O'Clock World
Lunch: Banana. Office snacks. Meh. Bought some frozen food from Gelson's.

Whoa, the days/weeks go by so quickly now.
Went to Glendale last night - I was feeling bored with life. So I just got annoyed at everything. (Man, I can be grumpy sometimes after work!)
CPK with Alisa and Michelle. Then Americana. I didn't go to Triana's.

I'm still freaking sore! (mostly my shins)
Rode my bike to work today - Avenue of the Stars is to be closed for a protest.
Music: Lady Gaga - Poker Face
There's no farmer's market today :( due to the protest. Boo.
Lunch: Frozen burrito (I had it saved in the freezer).
I am more calm when people around me are stressy.
Ugh - my facebook friend count went down by 1. Again. I hate that.

Gotta go to St. Bernard's tonight - or do I?

Oh god. I'm still so sore. All over, especially my legs.

Goodbye to James, I didn't really get to hang out with him.
Meeting with Alisa tonight - summer concert @ the Americana - Paula Cole.
Sill considering planning schools today.
I WAS ABLE TO GUESS THE COMPANY'S CREDIT CARD VERIFICATION NUMBER!
- I probably had it subliminally stored in my memory. Still, psychic power ftw.
Spreadsheet work today.
Still ridiculously hot outside. I may stay inside the office all day.
Music: Train - Hey Soul Sister; Jamie Cullum - Please Don't Stop the Music
So many food trucks to follow.
I'm chuckling - on Monday, I wore Chucks, watched Chuck, and almost up-chucked while chucking out the trash!
God, I miss London. . .
I'm a part-time vegetarian. I like it.
Considering volunteering for my Labor Day weekend. Organic farm?
Street closure tomorrow. I should just ride my bike.
"Electric Boogaloo" - heh heh.

Watched Chuck last night with James. We kept the futon open (no one was sitting on it) and sat on chairs. Awkward.

I AM SORE. So sore. From the hike to the Hollywood Sign yesterday - I thought I was going to be late to pick up my mom, so I ended up running downhill (while wearing chucks!). Tore up my shins and ankles.
101 free prints from Shutterfly. Hmm?
Just found out that urban planners don't earn that much. In fact, I might be earning less that what I'm earning now! :( Now I'm reconsidering my career choice.
UCL has good programmes.
Lunch: Leftover Tofu (spicy).
The back of the office is now empty, since we've settled the big case.
Updated the travel blog. New layout.
Should I get my securities license? Why not?
Michelle almost died this weekend! WTF?!
Didn't go outside all day. It's simply too hot.

Took mom to the doctor's this morning for her appointment.
I hate hospitals. I cringe a little every time I enter one.
I trimmed my hair a little before I got into the shower. It's too hot to be sporting the amount of hair I had.
2 hours to kill, so I drove through Hollywood. I ended up hiking up to the Hollywood Sign. It was sunny and bakingly hot.
I had to wait for mom until 12. Lunch at Sanamluang Cafe on Hollywood. Drove back home (hot!) then to work.

Got to work at 2pm.
Casey is now working here full time.
...16 couchrequests to respond to. Ai ya.
I've got several meetings this week... Hmm, I might as well stay in Glassell Park.
News: Tiger Woods getting divorced, it's official.
It's supposed to be even hotter tomorrow.

IvyPlus?
Music: Right Said Fred - I'm Too Sexy

Friday night: Office happy hour - I went into the VodBox! Had a shot (chocolate espresso) of vodka in a freezer. Said goodbye to coworkers Olga, Liz, Farrah.
Beverly Hills is legit.
Got back to the apartment like 9pm. Exhausted, I passed out.

Saturday:
Left early (8:45-9am) to get to Glendale for an info session about becoming an investment broker. I don't know if it was for me. I was the only "young" person there.
I dunno.
Back at home for the day. Got some lunch at Sun's in Highland Park. What a great find! Decent food, huge portions, about $5 a plate?!
Watched The Real World because nothing else was recorded on the DVR.
Met up with Chris (!!!) at Alhambra. Then joined Brian. Ate at Pharos burgers in Alhambra. Talked baseball and music, what do you expect.
Chris left, Brian and I walked around a little then went to Marissa's. Watched the end of the Dodger game with her brothers then headed out.


Came across the Venice room in Montebello/Monterey Park. Karaoke. It's alright, if you're 39.
Late night J in the B food rampage. ugh. Slept at 3am.



Sunday: Breakfast at Tommy's! Picked up Chris 9:30am. Met Brian there - his first Tommy's breakfast. Discussed our options for taking a trip to Houston or Seattle in September. Or anywhere to catch a game.
Brian had work. Chris and I hung around Pasadena, ended up at the Best Buy and of all places, Nordstrom Rack. Then to Target. Restocking items.



It was soo hot.

Returned home. Ate some leftover noodles and a whole chicken breast (from my mom's soup). I passed out HARD. No chance of going to that party thingy that James had invited me to. Groggily awoke and watched the latest Entourage. Ari is under scrutiny for his management style! G'night.

I'm having an off morning.

I'm knocking things over, being one clumbsy mess. I had no motivation to get out of bed. Trying to energize myself, I forced myself to go for a morning jog but I only felt more drained. I pan fried some chicken, because it had been defrosting all week, and I needed something for lunch. I did have some rice cooked last night. It's awkward to share a kitchen with two vegans.

Drove to work 9:15. The left turn lane was really backed up, I drove on Massachusetts to Westwood.
Apparently "quash" is a legal term.
I forgot how to solve for the least common multiple.
Music: Travie McCoy - Billionaire
I don't eat -> I'm tired. I eat -> I'm tired. WTF?!
Lots of negative energy today. I need to just stop it. Just decide to be happy.
... things really aren't going my way today at all. :(

HAPPY HOUR WITH THE OFFICE @ Nic's in Beverly Hills!

Watched The Time Traveler's Wife last night. Rachel McAdams. It wasn't that bad. But again, it's a sappy romantic movie. So I would be handing in my man-card if I recommended the movie without telling you to skip over all the non-Rachel McAdams scenes.


The Korean girls returned from the Dodgers game late (midnight). The Dodgers lost in 10 innings.
I adopted a word: Kexy.
Cleaned out my Gmail. Set up lots of new filters, etc., to keep it organized.
Lunch: Nothing. Bananas and trail mix and cheez its.
Music: Rise Against

Tattoo? Eagle. That would be awesome.

I BOUGHT MY CAR INSURANCE. AAA won.
