good things come in families

today my brother and i washed the wrx.  i got a crash course in car detailing 101.  it was intense.  i used q-tips to clean the a/c vents.  it took us three hours to make the car sparkle from exhaust tips to grill.  afterwards, my mom treated us to a delicious dinner at the weird local restaurant.  she said something about how she appreciated that we were spending a saturday night together as a family.  it truly was a good time.

my brother told me that his classmate studies for six hours per day everyday, and that he doesn’t do that because he is not a nerd.  i asked what makes a nerd a nerd, and he said, “i have a life.  today i spent time helping my sister wash her car, and i had a great dinner with my family.”  didn’t have the heart to tell him that that makes him a nerd afterall.  he will get straight a’s anyway.

i got pretty buzzed after two glasses of wine with dinner.  i feel good and even though i could easily sleep right now, i think i’ll watch a movie.

tomorrow: super bowl schmuper bowl.  i mean, go giants, etc.

easy lifting

happy friday night.

i feel pretty exhausted after a great week.  lots of socializing and catching up with some of my favorite peeps.  and today the pn treated me to lunch.  life’s just so nice and natural-feeling when good, honest folks are in it.  everyone else can get kung fu chopped in the head.

after work, we went to the car dealership in long beach to pick up a new ride for my mom.  it was a family affair.  she got a fancy car that she quite fancies, so all worked out well.

i’ve been craving a glass of delicious red wine for a couple of days now, but i’m feeling a bit rundown and unwilling to crack a whole bottle for myself.  i will relax in bed with downton abbey and try to sleep early.

not sure what’s going on, but more stuff is bound to happen.  i don’t know why, but i have perpetual butterflies in my stomach and I like it.

and i’ll forget the light

i woke up in a lousy mood this morning because i had unpleasant dreams.  what a waste of my rapid eye movements!

i went to work in that lousy mood, but then i had the most pleasant lunch.  delicious salad.  my good friend rudy.  my other good friend jenni.  delicious bread pudding.  and of course, the awkward compliment.  lousy mood gone.

i came home and felt completely exhausted.  i took an insanely long nap and felt weird afterwards.

i have all my days mixed up.  i thought today was friday.  this week feels so long but that’s because i’m all popular again and i have been staying busy and getting by with a little help from my friends.  i’ll never complain about long weeks again.

i’ll be sleeping soon.  i look forward to tomorrow and the next.

newland’s eyes

remember in chapter three of my thesis (”the pursuit of happiness in the age of innocence”)  i wrote about how the fragmented artifacts in the metropolitan museum were symbolic of the countess olenska’s indistinct perception of her own life in shambles?  well, just wanted to say that i’m not like her.

i went out for some really delicious sushi tonight.  walked across a bridge over the river.  played three fun games of pool in a bar.  and did not have a drop of alcohol.  neither did my liquor-loving companion, so how’s that for having my back.  pretty amazing if you ask me.

you know, i’m boring and i don’t really care or trip out on much.  but.  it’s really astounding to me how fortunate i am to be surrounded by such wonderful friends and family.  negative nellys know what to do!

remember that time

nice and quiet over here and i’m ready for bed.

i felt pretty exhausted today and didn’t feel like doing too much so i didn’t.  except nap.

overall, i feel pretty good.  and if i sleep well tonight i’ll probably feel even better tomorrow.  what about you.

nothing to report and i like it that way.

i’m number one

feeling pretty good and finally at ease.

took some time out for myself to relax and exercise.  focused on my outer and inner strength.  need to keep things in balance.

oh, the results of charlotte’s one-month weigh-in are in!  last month: 25.4 lb; this month: 24.9 lb.  she lost half a pound!  time to ramp things up.

i want to sleep now.  i read a lot of stuff on the internet.  nothing good though.

getting nothing for nothing

an eventful weekend.  i will sleep good and early tonight.

went to the skate all cities bbq on saturday.  it was a pretty awesome turnout and good to see old school sac heads like geza and lowly getting involved again.  recruited squid, josh, and gogurt into the crew too, which was great since i love them.  ricks is smart and motivational.  i foresee cool things happening.

met ryan for drinks on saturday night.  wonderful to see him as always.  but probably don’t ever need to do that again.

went to short order today where timothy treated me to a delicious hamburger.  it was a real juicy and sloppy burger, but i didn’t mind that so much.  it really was a nice day to be out and about with good company, especially when feeling a little out of it myself.

oh yeah, I’m not drinking alcohol for five days.  doctor’s orders.  ate the hamburger without a beer or a glass of wine, and all was good.

and now i am in bed and ready to close these eyes.  excited about getting into the office monday morning and putting the pro back into productive.

hope you are feeling real good.  talk more later.

what is today’s date anyway

Filed under: what's really going on — realjennykim @ 2:25 am

a fun night.  tattoos, drinks, and a band with lots of horns.

i need some sleep even though my mind wants to think about stuff.

and suddenly, i drink fernet.

thank you, coconut water.

all possibilities

so tired.  been b00zing and getting oysted and hanging around downtown.  life is fun in this city.  well, last night it was.

tonight—just chilled at home.  i look forward to closing my eyes.

it was a gorgeous day.  ate pho with chopak, and then we went to whole foods and got emergen-c and thai young coconuts.  cool to catch up and laugh.  he said he has been listening to a lot of “batman music” while working out.

enjoyed some family time.  my mom is recovering well and will be returning to work tomorrow.  she showed me her knee; it’s all bruised up.

i am off to bed now.  is this week going fast or slow?  hard to say.

ballz in his court

Ridiculous, but i am fighting off another cold.  i will bring out the big guns and the saltwater gargle.

my mom got into a car accident on the freeway this morning.  smashed up her fancy car pretty bad.  seatbelt burns on her neck and a painful chest contusion, but other than that she is doing extremely well.  could have been so much worse—another reason to believe i’m a really lucky girl.

more blessings of the day: getting treated to a delicious lunch by rudy, honest and open chatting with the pn, ill text messages all day, getting the work project done, treating the family to sushi, pulling a muscle in my neck because i did too many pull-ups and then laughing about it, the happy new year.

i better go perform my antisickness regimen, watch downton abbey, and get some real sleep.

i want to feel good tomorrow.
