You really need to learn how to focus

Poor Randall. He has to live with me. Which means he has to deal with
my ridiculous sense of time.

When it comes to work, I am pretty good at meeting all deadlines and
working on a million things at once. However outside of work is a
completely different story. I have no concept of how long things take
and am easily distracted. Today Randall lectured me on how I need to
focus. He says that if I tell him I'm going to do something like make
my burger (we were each customizing our patties and he was waiting for
me to finish), I should make my burger and not stop and check my
email, sort the mail, and change clothes first. I don't think there's
anything wrong with my thinking, I mean all that stuff was on the way
to the kitchen, so I was just utilizing my time wisely, right? Besides
that stuff took two minutes top, I'm sure of it.

Ps. To put my concept of time into perspective, I once asked Randall
if we had enough time to watch an episode of the office before we
headed out somewhere. According to him we had less than 10 minutes to
spare.

It was under our noses for three years

After dinner I dragged Randall out of the house for a little walky-
loo. I thought it would be fun to go up to corona heights to check out
the view on such a nice evening. When we headed out I decided to turn
right instead of left and ended up taking a shortcut through a park. A
cute park with slides. That's right, there is a cute park with slides,
swings, sand, tennis courts, and puppies just a few minutes away. How
did I not know there was a park five minutes from my house?!

Ps. I have no idea why I am making this face, I guess I'm in shock
from not knowing this park was right here.

Summercats Ho!

Burger's friend hugh is on tour with his band the summercats (as seen
on pitchfork even). This is burger, her bff Meghan (pronounced
meegan), and myself waiting for the show to start. I think we look
plastic.

Ps. If you wanna see the summercats, they're playing with baby grand
in sacto on Wednesday. Go to the show kids!

Pps. Sacto kids when you see Hugh be prepared to be in shock. He is
like an Australian tuttle. He even made some comments that I felt
would've been tuttle approved.

Ppps. How is it 11 and the first band has not gone on stage yet? Good
thing Randall doesn't have to wake up in the am. Too bad I have to.

Pppps. All this would normally be in the tags, but Arthur hasn't
looked into that thing yet.

Life needn't be so symmetrical

I've been in a severe need of a haircut. It'd gotten unruly and long
and was always in my eyes. In addition, I was mostly just bored by it.
I wanted something a little more fun and a little more edgy, but I did
not want a haircut that screamed look at me! I think laura (who works
at barnets in San Francisco if you wanna see her too) did an amazing
job. The right side hits right above the shoulder and the left stops
near my armpit. And the line between the two is surprisingly smooth. I
love it and I love her. Now if I can only manage to make it look this
good on my own.

Happy aqueous birthday samshrew

Samshrew is now one year closer to the old ladies club and to
celebrate, chris took us to aqua for dinners. I had some delicious
fish and an even more delicious dessert. Dinner was pretty great, but
the service was really spotty. Not bad, but spotty.

Afterwards we headed back to their place for cake, champagne, and a
really long game of settlers. So far Randall is winning, but I think
it could be anyone's game. Especially considering it's been almost two
hours and the champagne is kicking in.

ps. while it seems like i broke my "must post before midnight" rule, that was actually a small glitch, i accidentally sent it to my food site instead. so technically it wasn't a total fail.
