Today turned out to be a stressing day.
Everything was smooth at work. I was working on the Advertising Settlement for Movin Out which is playing at my work right now. Everything was cool until I found out I double paid an invoice to one of our printing companies. Its no big deal, I can fix it. Its just the hassle of calling them up and fixing the situation. So I went to lunch, had some sushi, then came back all tired. And the first thing my manager tells me is that the settlement must be due tomorrow. Kinda stressed me out a little bit, I can get it done, its no big deal, but it just added to the little stress I already had with the double paid invoice. So I guess I have to do everything tomorrow.
Then I had to leave work early for my dentist appointment which was suppose to be at 4:30. I left at 4:05 thinking it only takes 15 minutes to get there from Costa Mesa, just take Red Hill all the way up. Little did I know that there was many people taking side streets that time of the day! Literally, I was at the corner of McArthur and Red Hill at 4:30!! Thats just around the corner from my work pretty much! After that it was just down hill on Red Hill. I hit every freakin red light on that street. I'd be the last car of the pack, the light would turn green, and by the time I actually get near the intersection, it would turn red. What the fuck?? It got so bad, I went around on Jamboree in Irvine, where it was a little faster but I had to go all the way around. Still, I hit every red light that existed in the city of Tustin.
I didn't get near the dentist till about 4:45. At that time, I had enough of the traffic and just wanted to go home already. So, Karen rescheduled the appointment for me for next Wednesday. Next time I'll take the freeway. Freakin Red Hill.
On a happier note, we got new (used) couches from Steph. Thanks!!!

I think I had one the dullest weekends in a while...
Friday didn't do much. I waited for a phone call from a certain someone for dinner, but it didn't happen. So I just died of boredom at home by myself while Karen was out watching Wicked at the Pantages.
Saturday, I went to the dentist for the first time in a long time. My teeth were fugly. But now they're cool. I have to go back to get some fillings on a couple of cavities. I think only 2 or 3, which isn't bad considering I haven't been to the dentist in two or three years. I don't eat a lot of junk food, so thats a good thing. Picked up Chels and Karen at work, and filled my clean teeth with food from Macaroni Grill. Then later at night, I got pretty faded at a housewarming party. I haven't drank that much in a while (7 beers). Not bad, cuz I didn't eat a big meal either. But it was a lot of fun. I thought I was gonna be hung over on Sunday, but I felt fine, just drank a bunch of Gatorade before I knocked out.
Sunday, did nothing excited again. I was watching the food network and had a craving of pork chops. So I made some Parmesan Crusted Pork Chops, courtesy of Giada De Laurentis, and some Egg Drop Soup, courtesy of Lina Diche (my mom). Good stuff...here's how to make the pork chops (sorry the Egg Drop soup needs to be kept a secret):
Some pork loin chops (4 or 6 of them)
Olive Oil (about 4-6 tablespoons)
Salt and Pepper
2 eggs
Italian Style Breadcrumbs
Some grated Parmesan Cheese
Alright, first season the pork chops with a little salt and pepper. Heat up a skillet with the olive oil. Beat two egs inside a flat bowl (big enough to dunk the chops into) Pour some of them breadcrumbs in another flat bowl and the parmesan cheese in another flat bowl. Dunk the seasoned chops first, in the cheese and cover it all over. Then dip it in the eggs, then the breadcrumbs, then fry them bad boys. Fry em for about 6 minutes (depending on the thickness of the chops-these are for a medium sized cut, about 1/2 an inch cut) on both sides. Serve with a squeeze of lemon, ketchup, or my favorite - Mang Tomas roast sauce. Or just eat the chops by themselves, up to you.
Quick and easy. If any of you read this, let me know how it turns out.

The C.A.R.E. program is suppose to help improve cuz managers care about the success of their department and their fellow employees who are part of it.
To me, I think it more stands for "We just dont' give a fuck?"
What do you all think?
It aint my business cuz I'm not part of that department anymore. And honestly I have no regrets not being in the department. But I have a lot of friends still there. And to know that rules make them mad, makes me mad as well.
I gave my hard four years of work in that department, but didn't get rewarded. So I moved on to another place that wanted me. And they liked me so much, I got a promotion in a matter of months.
At the other place, I got two raises in four years...an increase of 2 bucks.
Total!
That's it...that's all
So if they are suppose to 'care,' then where's the reward?

Had a nice Father's Day weekend.
Didn't do much Friday but upgrade my computer and build my parents computer. I'm running an Athlon 64 3000+ (previously an Athlon XP 2200+).
Saturday, did the same thing, until I went shopping at Cerritos with Karen. I went to check out the Jordan Dub Zero's and picked them up at Finshline, even tho that fuckin Korean bitch at the store didn't help my ass out. Shit, I asked for help and she went to hug her fuckin Ipod wearing bitches while another co-worker and I were asking for help. I was tempted to leave and try another store, but I was already there.
Another bad thing about Cerritos mall...they have an Aeropastle store. So I spent another $40 on clothes there. The signs were calling my name....2 for $20 screen shirts, $17 buttoned shirts. Now I'm broke till next paycheck.
So I spent over $200 in shopping in less than an hour. That's the most for me in awhile!
Sunday, I rolled up to see my pops in Oxnard for Father's Day. I thought we were gonna eat lunch and I was gonna pay for his lunch since I didn't get him anything, but all he wanted was to stay at home and enjoy my mom's cooking. Shoot, I'd do the same too. I'd pick my mom's cooking over restaurant food any day!
My dad broke our indoor basketball hoop. So I'll go out and buy one for him for Father's Day.
Speaking of Basketball, we also watched the Pistons loose in Game 5 of the Finals to the Spurs. Good game, defense didn't get it done tho at the end.
Picked up Jean and Bert in the Valley, then went home.
Another week all over again.
So...no shoe buying for me till August (Jordan Dub Zero in Orange comes out)
...unless I win this bid on Jordan X's!!
Moo-ha! Moo-ha-ha!!

Did you feel the earthquake??
That's three earthquakes this week. I felt the one on Sunday morning, but just went back to sleep. There was the other one in the Pacific Ocean that caused a tsunami alert. Then, there was one today at work. I was just at the Box Office talking to the manager for Alanis tickets and it struck. Nothing to be excited about, but just suprised. I was more laughing at the Midwestern ladies that freaked out.
Watched Batman Begins with Karen after work. Its so much better than the other Batman movies. I give it a 10 out of 10. So far, the best movie this summer. I still haven't watched Star Wars Episode Three (still have to watch the 2nd one since the 1st one was so awful.) We'll see if that'll happen.
Damn, there's a sale at Robinson's May! $25 for Reaction shirts. crap! Freakin Disney had to screw me over this week, cuz my annual pass was due.
Freak, my teeth are beginning to hurt. I'm calling for a checkup tomorrow.
Busy weekend coming up. Nothing big planned. Upgrading my computer and building my parents new computer. Maybe pick up the Jordan Dub Zero's or buy the Jordan X. Then visit my pops for Father's Day.
Freakin Disney, I'm still pissed cuz that money could've gone to my Reaction shirts, both Jordan shoes, and my dad's Father's Day gift.
I hate you Disney! Only when I'm at the park, I'm happy. But for now, I hate you!
Tinker Bell's a whore!

Had a nice weekend...
Friday...went to Goldilock's with Karen to meet up with some of her friends for dinner. Then went to Best Buy and got some computer parts (a new video card and a new 19" LCD monitor). It's nice to have a friend that works at Best Buy!
Saturday...went to Oxnard with Ryan for Andrew Halog's graduation party. Ate a lot of food and had some Corona's. Then, we went shopping at the Camrillo Outlets. Picked up a pair of Banana Republic khaki's for only $7! Normally, $50, but it was on the clearance rack for $10, plus all men's clothing was 30% off. Best deal! Didn't buy anything else, tho. I have to renew my Disney Annual Passport this week. Boo! Afterwards, had dinner with my parents then met up with Ram and some people at a bar and drank a lil before going back to Irvine.
Sunday...watched the Dodgers beat the Twins on T.V. Hee-Seop Choi hit 3 homeruns in just 4 pitches. That was cool. Then installed my video card and configured it. It looks beautiful! Then, John John gave me call and we all met up at Hooters for dinner and watch the Spurs crush the Pistons. I had 16 wings...not too shabby!
Time for another 5 days of work. Using the line from the Holy Grail and Kristine..."I fart in that direction!"
Btw, I love my Karen!

Had a nice Memorial Day weekend. Didn't do much but it was very relaxing.
Friday night, I watched Minnie Driver perform at work with Karen and Kristine. Got her to sign my ticket stub after the show. She's actually a pretty good singer. Not the best, but pretty good elevator music or just something to chill and have a glass of wine with. It was pretty trippy cuz the lady that sat at our table was from Oxnard. She lives near Riveridge. Small world. There was also some lady with huge knockers that sat to the table next to us and her entire right half of her bra was showing for a few seconds. I'm sure it wasn't peeping out too long cuz she might've felt a draft or something. Or maybe its just guys that experience that. Anyways...
Saturday, just went to Carson for Chris and Doris's baby shower on Saturday. It was nice chillin with some of his old coworkers and drinking beer.
Sunday, Karen and I Netflix'd Team America. It was pretty creative and funny. The sex scene was hilarious!
Today, Karen and I watched the Food Network for most of the afternoon..."Boy Meets Grill with Bobby Flay." Man, I was getting so hungry with the stuff he was cooking. It was so good that I jumped on the internet and printed some of his recipes out. BBQ shortribs will be my next experiment on the grill.
For lunch, we had some barbequed beer brats. Turned out okay, did it the Danger Dog way with bacon around it and grilled onions. We had it for dinner as well. I think I'm good on brats for a while.
Also checked out Madagascar at the theaters today. It was pretty funny. Not Pixar Animation funny (like Finding Nemo), but funny enough. The penguins were really cool. There were a bunch of little kids at the theater. What do you expect, it was a matinee. We sat behind this group of 6 kids, prolly 10 or 11 year olds. All girls, except one which was a brother of one of the girls. He was pretty violent with her sister. He'd ask for his money and she would ignore him. Then, he strangled her or put her in a headlock for a bit. I was a little shocked, but I haven't seen a live fight in a while so I wanted to see how it would progress. Nothing happened tho but it was a bit entertaining.
My stomach hurts. I think I might have to attend doodies soon. Too much brats for the day. Doesn't it suck when you have to right after you take a shower? Or worse, while you're in the shower??

Then, he strangled her or put her in a headlock for a bit. I was a little shocked, but I haven't seen a live fight in a while so I wanted to see how it would progress. Nothing happened tho but it was a bit entertaining.
My stomach hurts. I think I might have to attend doodies soon. Too much brats for the day. Doesn't it suck when you have to right after you take a shower? Or worse, while you're in the shower??

Today, I went to Dodger Stadium to watch the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim 6-2. It was freakin hot in L.A. According to Lou's thermometer in his truck, it was 94 degrees. My ass was burning once I sat down. Good thing I didn't wear my thong. Yeah right!
It sucked cuz I didn't get any shade in my seats till about the 7th inning or so. We had 3 rows of 10 reserved for our party. I would've had the first row to get shade, but I let Terry and Harold sit in my seat and the empty seat next to mine, while I moved to an empty seat in front of me next to Belle. Then later, I took a smoke break with Ryan and Jevon. I came back and my seat was taken again, so I had to move another row down. By that time, I would've had shade again but didn't. Oh well its cool. We won! and had fun! Felt bad for Ryan, he was wearing his Angels jersey and got playfully heckled by some fans on the way out. No harm tho, just for fun.
The whole Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim just doesn't make sense to me. They should just go back to being the Anaheim Angels. They're stadium is in Anaheim and they're not even in the Los Angeles county. Plus their name just sounds ridiculous. Two cities as part of their name?? Unheard of. I know its all about having the name "Los Angeles" as a way to market the team and make money, but in reality, the team isn't even in Los Angeles. Plus if you translate their name from Spanish to English, their team would be called The Angels Angels of Anaheim. Now, if they drop the whole Anaheim part, they would be called The Angels Angels, which even sounds more dumb!
Well, tomorrow I'm gonna watch the Angels again vs the Chicago White Sox. Got free tickets at work from the Los Angeles Times of Los Angeles. 5th row from the Angels dugout.
Anyways, good luck to Kristine on your finals! You'll be fine! Let's go drinking to celebrate when you're done! Just one beer tho, hehe!
Make that half a beer! Love ya!

Stupid Bill Cosby reps.
Bill Cosby is coming to my work for two shows on June 18th. I love Bill Cosby, but his damn reps are idiots! Every morning I have to send ticket sales numbers to them. One of them includes group pending numbers. Basically they're seats that are sold at a group discount rate. They haven't been seated or completed. They're just on hold in their group account until the payment and order is complete. That number will always change, whether its a cancelled group order, if an order is paid and completed, or if a new group requests a new order. But the fuckers at the Cosby Camp can't figure this out!
Dude, I dunno why that can't figure it out! That number will change, whether it goes up or down. And they had a problem the other day cuz it went down. I got abrupt emails from their rep saying that these numbers are off and its impossible. But shit, if you don't know what PENDING means, get off the crack your smoking and look it up!
So they keep trying to get a hold of me, the Box office supervisor, and the head of ticketing. They requested me to fax the audit report to them. So I did. Then they call head of ticketing and they don't know how to read a damn report!
What does capacity mean?? It means maximum seating and sales amount right??
Shit! There's a catagory that says capacity, and they ask "is that the total number of seats we've sold?"
"No you freakin idiot!" It means the maximum possible seats and amount the show can sell!
It kinda makes me wonder how fuckin stupid do you have to be to work for Bill Cosby. Is it really stupid? Or really fucking stupid? I prefer the second.
So today, I fax over the audit and emailed the detailed report I even created.
Now, no phone calls, no harsh emails.
Maybe they stopped smoking crack finally.

Its been pretty busy the last week or so.
We suprised birthday gathering at BJ's which Chelsea and I helped organize for Karen. I stalled by taking her to watch Kindom of Heaven, then brought her over for her little party. Pretty big turnout I must say. Although I was very disappointed with one turn of event (one which in a way I'm not suprised of), it was a great night for Karen (and Kristine, tee hee hee!). Happy Birthday!!
Friday, John John, Keno, Karen and I took off for Vegas after work. I had a blast. We just kicked it at the Centrifuge lounge at the MGM and had some drinks. Saturday, met up with the other group, went shopping at the outlets (got me some shirts to match my Dunks and Jordan IV's, and also bought a new Michigan hat), and ate at the Aladdin Buffet. Crab Legs! mmmm....!
Later that night, we went to this new club called Pure at Caesar's. Very nice place. All covered in white, with lavendar lighting. It has a beautiful terrace outside where u can see the entire strip. Got pretty faded that night, however it wasn't bad at all. There was a bad turn of event that occured but not bad enough to ruin the trip. Happy Birthday to John John and Karen!!
The next day, we just had lunch with Sherwin and Bigs before they took off for their flight back to the Bay. After that, walked around Caesar's and saw baseball legend Pete Rose and Paul Pierce of the Boston Celtics. Kinda felt bad for Mr. Rose. He was signing autographs outside some sports store, but no one was there really. I guess his image has been somewhat tarnished from the gambling accusations. Oh well, not a bad trip.
I still have my Vegas jetlag, but thats normal. I'm ready for a long nap. Next trip planned...CHICAGO!!

Today, I found out that you can get a blood test at the Disneyland resort.
I went to the resort today to find out for myself but couldn't find a place to get a blood test at.
Actually, Chelsea, Angela, and I suprised Karen by kidnapping her and celebrating her birthday at Disneyland. I must say, I've never done so much in just 3 hours. Fireworks were pretty. Dinner at Tortilla Jo's was dope!
But no luck finding that damn place to get a blood test at!

So today I was taking a dump at work in Tier 2 while the Pacific Symphony was rehearsing for tonight. I found it pretty amusing taking a dump while listening to classical music. Aint nothing like listening to an orchestra while creating one with my ass. They have their bass drum...I have my shit kabooming on the toilet creating my own rattling. They got a trumpet, I got my own tooting instrument.
Its always amusing listening to rehearsals while taking a dump in one of the levels at our theater. One time, the Lion King was rehearsing, "Can you feel the love tonight?"
"No, but I can feel this big ass piece of shit coming out of my ass."

So today's work timeline:
8:13 am: I arrive at work, turn on my computer and work on the daily jumps.
9:30 am: Finish Daily jumps, emailed Clear Channel reports, emailed report to reps for Bill Cosby, and faxed report to reps for Alanis Morissette.
10:00 am: Go to the Box Office to pick up Vinh to buy a Rockstar energy drink next door.
10:30 am: Arrive at my desk staring into space, waiting for the Rockstar drink to kick in.
10:45 am: Start to fall asleep
11:00 am: Decide to get up from my desk and walk around a little.
12:00 pm: Go to lunch with Dean, Sol, and Greg at Claim Jumpers
1:05 pm: Arrive back at my desk.
1:15 pm: Begin to fall asleep from food coma
2:00 pm: Go to the Box Office and look at Sunday's Target ad
2:30 pm: Decide to go upstairs to Tier 2 to do my doodies.
3:30 pm: Finally decide to do work: Make copies of invoices and file them away
4:30 pm: Go home
As you can tell, when Karen and Kristine aren't at work, and when Chelsea is busy doing the mail, work can be very unproductive.
But thats not a bad thing!

Had a pretty nice weekend. Altho it was way too fast...
After work, I decided to order a new Motorola flip phone cuz my freakin Nokia sux ass. I love Nokia, but the model I had sux balls. I actually get the phone for free, got it for $50 and it comes with a $50 rebate. I just had to change my plan which kinda sux. Damn Cingular.
Afterwards, went to go celebrate Gerard and Christian's birthday at Tijuana's in Irvine. Haven't been to that area since I celebrated my P-Grad (Pilipino Graduation) from UCI 2000. Had fun, drank a few beers. Altho the music could've been better, its always nice to hang out with friends. Happy birthday G and Christian!
Saturday, I stayed home, did some laundry and played video games till Kristine and Karen came over from work. Karen took a nap while I gave Kristine a massage while watching Band of Brothers. Afterwards we picked up Angela, ate at a shot up Carl's Jr in Anaheim (seriously had bullet holes in the window), then it was off to ice skating at Disney Ice with some co workers. I had to suck it up and step into Enemy Territory for the evening. Afterall its where the Anaheim Mighty Dicks practice. I was able to save my bitterness after getting a $2 discount with my Disney Annual Pass. Not too shabby.
Its been a long time since I've skated. Probably since John was still alive back in summer of 98. He got hooked on it when we had a rink in Irvine. I still can't hockey stop, but my skating was okay. I was kinda shaky skating, maybe its cuz of the skates. Hopefully next time I can hockey stop. We'll go again sometime soon! =)
Today, went to Michael Funk's senior recital at LB State. Good job Mike! Very entertaining, especially with the red zoot suit accompanied with some Jazz pieces. After that, went to Cerritos to do some shopping and grabbed some food, where I had a bad shit experience (i'll explain in a bit). Came home, ate, then watched Kung Fu Hustle with Jevon, Tommy, and my roommates.
Anyhow, yeah so I had a bad shit attack on our way out from the mall. I like to shit in piece so i figured a department store would be perfect (Sears). Couldn't find the bathroom, except the one in the mall next to the first store, which is a no no for me. Too busy. So I decided to hold it for a bit.
We crossed Gridley and went to Goldilocks to get my refund on a double charge they did. Walked next door, then it hit me again. So I went back to Goldilocks but someone was taking a shit too. Well since we were going to Pinoy Pinay to grab some food, I figured they're would be a restroom at the Sport Mart in the same plaza. Afterall, how many people would be taking a dump while shopping for sporting goods right? So i park the car, find the bathroom, then find out there's no freakin toilet paper! WTF??? I couldn't take it anymore, and just did my doodies at Pinoy Pinay. I didn't want to do it at a restaurant, but I had no choice. Oh well...
Dodgers win 2-1 against Colorado and take over first place in the NL West!
In 7 more hours, I will be at work. Boo.

Its the final week of the Lion King, thank god. Last week for the advertising settlement which is due on Friday. We had a lil screw up at work but its all good. Not gonna let it bother me.
Went shopping over the weekend with Karen, Saturday at the Camarillo Outlets and Sunday at the Cerritos mall. Just bought some clothes for work. Pretty good deals, but I wish stuff was cheaper. Karen got some clothes and almost bought some Air Force 1's. I think I'm making her broke by getting her into shoes. Which reminds me...
In the last 2 weeks, I've bought 3 pairs of shoes, with at least 2 or 3 more on the way this summer. Got the Jordan IV Grey/Maize colorway, black/blue/graphite Air Max 95's, and Dunk Lows (Michigan colorway). I hope to get the Dunk Bronco's, Jordan IV Fire Red Laser, and the Jordan Dub Zero's. We'll see tho. I might have to retire some shoes.
Basketball season is about to end, while Baseball season is up and running. The Lakers aren't going into the playoffs. Not too surprised. So the Laker haters are now talking their shit. By all means go ahead. You have your opinion. I'm a loyal fan that doesn't jump on anyone's bandwagon, nor jump off because your team sucks. If thats your case, then you're not a true fan. Its all good, I have my Dodgers to cheer me up. 11-2 to start so far!
Playing ball, and i'm averaging 0.9 points a game. Not taking as much shots as I used to, but also not getting any touches. But I don't care. I'm not a bitch. I don't complain if my team quits playing. I play 85% for fun, 15% competition. I don't take it seriously because its just a game. I have more important things to worry about. I see it as a time just to be with friends and to chill. I don't care if we loose or if my team sucks. Afterall, there is no glory involved. No banner to hang on a rafter. No ring to wear. So I don't understand why some people out there take it so seriously, especially with a friendly game of 5-5. It's just a game. Grow up! And if you're looking for that glory, play somewhere else. I hate people who are like that.
Hopefully by tomorrow, i'll boost up my average to 1.2 points a game. It doesn't help when Michelle is guarding you. She's good!! She'll bust you up and make you look bad! Crap, I hope she doesn't cause my average to drop to 0.5. Maybe I'll buy a new pair of Reebok pumps and pump up. (yeah right, fuck Reebok!)

Okay, so I didn't quite make it to two years.
So damn, what the hell do I write? Thoughts? Opinions? I suck balls at writing. So I'll just write whatever comes to mind.
Hmmm...
Played ball today and sucked. I scored two points in two games. Pathetic. I hate it when I suck and let my teammates down. I don't get too serious playing. Its fun and I don't get all pissy when my team sucks, nor do I get mad at people who make strange plays. After all, I know i'm not that great of a basketball player anyway. I play for fun. We'll see how it goes on Thursday.
Band of Brothers is on the History Channel again today. If you haven't watched the series, I suggest you buy the dvd set and watch it. It is probably one of the best shows I have ever seen. Plus it helps to run on Dolby Digital 5.1 sound.
My home theater system is great. I plan on upgrading my tv soon to an LCD monitor. Its taking me forever to buy one, especially since I keep spending my money on stuff (nike kicks, snowboarding stuff, etc.) We'll see how it goes after my tax break.
Watchin U2, live from Slane Castle, Ireland. U2....probably one of the greatest bands ever. They're probably the only band I have literally grown up with. Not a hardcore fan, but their music and live performances always amazes me. My favorite album is still Joshua Tree, altho I know hardcore fans have their own favorites. They recently performed here in Southern California. One of these days I'll catch their shows, I just have to buy all their albums first. Doesn't help not knowing what songs are what. That experience was lived at the Linkin Park concert last year at Long Beach. I knew the songs, just didn't know the titles. But hell, all their songs sound the same anyway.
I don't know how often I'll update this sucker. So in the meantime, download porn.
