sake bomb

just in case jdo was really wanting to know - my current project pretty much has me on my own managing myself, my work and a client co-lead for a stream of work that I know nothing about. talk about a steep learning curve. this shit wakes me up at night but it is really cool.

after all these years I have finally sake bombed at probably the greatest place ever for some boozing - miyaki's in palo alto! HS friend's bday was celebrated in style by jumping on our chairs and pounding our beer and sake. OHHH the good old days. I wish we could go back to the drinking every tuesday and thurs nights with an occassional wed and fri! I LOVE sake bombing, and I didn't even get that drunk which was perfect.

I am seeing the deathcab show at the greek in august - maybe I can hit up that one bar where we would all go to sake bomb. Shit I can;t even remember the name. soooo old:(

almost May

lordy this month hsa gone by so fast. Once again I find myself whining about how crazy work has been but at least this time I am in a super challenging role and it really is a great opportunity. And the work itself is incredibly cool in my book.

So had my HS friend's wedding this past weekend out in the valley! yea that is central valley kids. I love hanging out with my HS gang and I love talking shit about the bitches I hate from back in the day. Now la sassy and I had a convo about how we are adults and it is lame to carry around grudges from the past and I totally agree and I do think it is immature to live in the past but you know what? I am ok with feeling strongly enough about certain people to dislike them and that I do not need to love the world. And I don;t want to forget about the past - it makes for some great conversations about how much I hate certain people. deal with it.

birthday season

there seems to be a lot of bday activity going on around this time of year! ahh but the good old bday is not so good anymore. I am really not looking foward to adding on another year. I am one year closer to what now? there is no end goal damn it. Life is 4 phases: 1 you get to be a kid and enjoy school and friends and life is pretty damn easy. 2 is life after college and the first job and optimism for a few years. 3 is the whole middle part of your life where all you do is go to work, raise a family (if applicable - not me damn it) and cry about how there is never any money. 4 is retirement and hopefully you saved enough money to actually enjoy it. Probably not though since there is no social secruity, medical costs are rising and the cost of living is always increasing and damn houses are so freaking expensive that I will still probably be paying my mortgage.
sad I know, but it is true kids.

south bay is where?!

I am slowly coming to understand the set up of the bay area. I never knew nor cared about where exactly another city was, all I needed to know was how to get there. Now that I am forced to take all these new freeways it is making sense where they lead to and what direction I am going. I LOVE IT! so yea, that;s the one postitive take away I have from commuting over an hour each day each way to freaking south bay! OHH the commute hurts so much. My body just flat out aches from sitting down for so damn long:( 2 hours in a car, then 10 hours at work. I HURT. Yesterday when everyone was out I did some push ups to try and make myself feel better. It worked for a minute:)

I am looking forward to vegas ladies - I can;t believe april is here and will pass so quickly and then we will be gambling and drinking away in vegas!
