DisneyLand - The Happiest Place on Earth!

I left for DisneyLand on Wednesday. I decided to take a vacation day so that I could leisurely drive to Bakersfield and pick up Stephen at 6pm. It had been my hope that Stephen would have the day off. Hmph. He didn't. That sucked. But, as it turned out, it was fine. As soon as I got on the road, I hit traffic. I want to know how that happens! I get on the road at 1:00pm, and there is traffic. I'm thinking to myself, "Where did all these people come from?". When I finally make it to … [Read more...]

10 days away and the par-tay is already started

My birthday is always a hard time for me. I don't know why. Actually, I think it is because it is around Thanksgiving. Try having a birthday party on Thanksgiving weekend. It isn't fun. Honestly, I was trying to get out of having a gno party thing. I figured if I was away at DisneyLand for the gno on the 24 and planned shopping on the 1st that we really wouldn't have to deal with it. The event would just pass. Boy howdy, was I surprised when I showed up a bit late to girls night tonight. … [Read more...]

Why does new equipment at the gym make me not want to go?

Last Wednesday the fitness center at San Jose State got 6 new eliptical trainers. They are by StairMaster. They are one of the machines that also does arms. I HATE THIS MACHINE. I hate it. It is the hardest, unmotivating machine that the fitness center was trying. Apparently, when I first got my membership, the fitness center was trying out different eliptical trainers to decide which ones to purchase. I liked two. The Precor EFX and the Life Fitness 95Xi. I would alternate between the … [Read more...]

25 bags of my life in clothing.

Part of getting ready to move included my mother calling my cousin Cindy to come down and help me "get rid of the clutter." What this meant to my mother was, "Gwen has too much shit, won't get rid of it, and I know Cindy will." So, knowing what had to happen, I allowed 25 bags of clothing to go to GoodWill on Sunday. Jones New York suits. At least 10 Jones New York suits. Granted, I couldn't wear a one because they were too big, but still. Beautiful wool skirts and pants that coordinated … [Read more...]

A piece of information that made me feel better.

Macromedia finally put the infonetwork back up, and I now have a piece of information that has been eluding me for just over a week. This made me happy. It's sad it made me happy, but it did. … [Read more...]

Letting the realtor go.

After much discussion and a ton of frustration, my mom and I let our realtor go. It's kinda sad really. Neither mom or I could figure out who he was working for. It was like we would find something to put a bid in on, and he would talk us out of it. Then he would make excuses later as to why. This last time, and the time before, the other agent was playing games. Who knows who was playing games. I don't. Later on in the day, I get a call from his boss apologizing for what happened, and … [Read more...]

Is “W” more a landing strip or a brazilian?

Last night I was talking to Stephen on the phone. I had forgotten to call him on Sunday to wish him a happy birthday, so I was taking care of business. For some reason, I have no idea why, we started talking about "W". Stephen kept calling him "Bush". I said, he is no bush, he is more like a "shrub". To which Stephen replied, "I always thought of him more like a landing strip." I then said, "He doesn't even qualify as a landing strip, he is more like a brazilian. We all know there is just … [Read more...]
