FluCategory: sick
I thought my stomach was tied up in knots due to stress, turns out it's the stomach flu. If only all things were as easy to solve as just waiting a couple days.

I think twitter does to writing what MTV does to attention span. Soon people will not be able to write more than a sentence.

My stomach ache started out with my thinking it was a stomach flu. Didn't you just have the stomach flu a little while back? Good luck. Watch this be the early stages of laptop induced stomach illness or something crazy.

Good or Wack?

Wack. Some classics don't need to be rehashed.

When I saw Golden Compass last week I saw the Speed Racer previews. The acting looked too good and the actors' lines were far too articulate to qualify as a faithful live-action representation of the Speed Racer franchise.

When I was a kid I was fascinated by Speed Racer. The trailer looked pretty cool. They stylistically do make it sort of cartoonish, and I like that. I can't wait to see more. Hopefully they do a good job with it.

Personally I'm hoping for good. Campy, colorful, fast, flashy - could be a fun movie.

Freaking OutCategory: life
I'm forcing myself to take today off. I was so busy all week, I've got 100 unread messages in my inbox and a million things to do, but I'm refusing to do anything today. Trying to relax. I used to party and slack off and stay out all night, and that was about it - the entire story of my early 20's.
Now I freak out about everything and can't stop to take a day off from work and am always panicked about not getting enough done. Lame. And counterproductive, I just get burned out and can't work all day every day anyways, so what's the point of going to extremes? So I'm sitting here trying to breath and read a book. And posting on (e:strip). Wish me luck :)
On another note thanks for stopping by the pot luck everyone! I didn't do much except pick a date, and you all come through with delicious food and some great conversation. You all are the reason for its success. Cheers!

yeah, i know the feeling. i slept at work last night again. i was so tired and just couldn't drive home. i woke up at like 3 am and was so confused as to where i was and what was going on. i had to hurry up and get out of there before 9am so that i wouldn't get charged for 2 days of parking at the ramp instead of one. i wont make that mistake twice.

I let myself fall into a similar pattern after my party 20s years. At this rate we will be dead at 40.

jenks you havent noticed a decline in the quality of the roswell food?
jenks i respect your opinion even though you are wrong ;)
i disagree. I still think roswell's caf kills the Kaleida Kafe.
i'm glad i'm not the only one that has noticed that roswell food has gone down in quality. i think it has a lot to do with the fact that the head chef that was there left about 6 months ago and the standards he had implemented while he was there left with him too.
i wonder if i should write another letter to roswell big wigs to let them know my (and your) thoughts on the matter. maybe i should blog about it, maybe we all should.
they are holding the good food ransom until Jim's project is done.
And (e:Terry), I shot tea out of my nose reading that. ^_^
Sounds healthy. Glad to see Buffalo General has healthy food just like Roswell. Seriously, why is the Roswell food so sub par now.
(e:paul) wsa there at the same time having a very different kind of lunch. :p
An 18" egg roll with FREAKING STEAK AND CHEESE IN IT.
