London Calling...

I'm sitting in an Internet Cafe in my hostel in Picadilly Circus. It's been a long day. Left San Francisco at 16:30 Pacific and arrived in London at 11:00 local time (3am pacific). I've been walking around like a zombie trying to stay awake.

Managed to stumble upon Big Ben, 10 Downing Street, Abbey, Buckingham Palace, SOHO... I'll go back with a camera when I've had some sleep. Well that's it for now. I'll fix my spelling later ;-)

It's September 11th, 2006

I'm in a much better place then I was one year ago. Thank God for small favors.

All the 9/11 coverage today has me in an emotional and sentimental state. Last night 60 Minutes did a story on the Children of 9/11 victims and it was very sad. These poor kids have lost parents and I'm realizing that I need to grab life by the horns and live it up.

Last week my boss asked about my vacation plans. I really haven't thought about it all that much and I didn't realize I was running out of time. Turns out I have to use my vacation before the end of the year. Thanks Mickey.

I've never been that very good about taking vacation. I don't know why. I went three and a half years at my last full-time job without taking one. At least I was able to leave that hell hole with a huge paycheck.

It may be time to take a road trip. I've always wanted to make the cross-country voyage and I may just do that. Stay tuned for details...

4 months without a blog entry... my bad.

haha... wow. 4 months. I've been busy. It's summer. What can I say?

I was going to create a new website. I registered a bunch of domain names and got some hosted space. I started on it and then ran out of interest. haha. I don't think i'll be able to get beyond a blog on blogger. I should probably focus on that kind of thing.

A crazy guy from Fremont went on a SUV rampage running over people here in San Francisco. Two of the victims were hit while standing in the bus shelter on my corner. I didn't hear anything but the street was blocked off with police tape and I noticed some print reporters buzzing about the intersection. That is pretty whack!

Where have I been?

Oh that's right.. I have a fulltime jerrrb. I had almost forgotten how much time fulltime employment requires. I'll try to post something interesting in a timely manner. my bad. ;-)

why do I hear birds chirping outside at 3am?

hmmmm.. crazy city birds.

Intercrack is whack!

Evil! 

I'm all moved in to the new place thanks to the help of J. It took three trips by myself on Saturday March 11th and and three trips with J on Saturday March 18th. I'm finally out of the hell hole. So much for the namesake of this blog. ;-)
...
It's official, I'm a Comcast whore. I got the Digital Cable Silver package w/ HBO + DVR + High Speed Internet.

I received the package at work today. Intercrack is back and boy my dealer sure knows how to push product. Digital cable for $39.99 (for the first 3 months) and cable internet for $19.99 (for the first 6 months). After that I will have to offer up my first born.

At least I won't see a god damn bill with the name "Pacific Bell" or "SBC" or "AT&T" or "The New AT&T" or "AT&T powered by SBC" or whatever they decide to call themselves next year. Sorry SBC, you can't run away from a bad reputation. Thanks for playing.

Now I only have to deal with one "evil corporation". Thank god for small favors.

Checking in...

Hey there! So... how's it going? ;-)

I'm in the middle of moving so I haven't had a lot of time to kill (i.e. blogging about random things). Also, I don't have Internet access at the new digs yet and stealing low signal wireless is a frustrating experience. Comcast is on their way and I'll eventually get my Intercrack back.

Oh BTW, I found another dangerous food outlet in my new hood... PANDA EXPRESS.

/begin rant/ OK, I have a question... Why does Panda Express even bother making anything besides Orange Chicken? As I was thinking about this in line today, the guy in front of me changed his mind and asked for a double serving of Orange Chicken. It's as if the "Panda Chef" started with Orange Chicken and then ran out of inspiration.

I always challenge myself to try something else and I always regret it. Chicken and Potato? Now that's authentic Chinese cuisine. They're not even trying. Come on' Panda! /end rant/
