| | Hi blog readers (if there are any of you left), sorry I've been so
distant and cold lately. Despite my preponderance of free-time at
work these days, I've had no inspiration for and inclination towards
updating this thing lately. I guess I'm in a state of blog
depression, due to an imbalance in my blog-otonin.
Or I could just be super lazy from sitting here staring at the internet/the wall/my feet for hours straight.
Life outside of work has been jim-dandy and action packed, or
jim-packed and action dandy. Ooh, time to google the origin of
the term "jim dandy". Uno momento pork flavor.
-- Google Break --
Okay, I'm back. According to the online Merriam Webster
dictionary, the saying most likely originated from the term
"jack-a-dandy". Dandy apparently is "a man who gives exaggerate
attention to appearance." And "jack-a" means "jack of". So
I guess a "jack-a-dandy" is someone known to be a dandy. God that
was too much effort.
Hmm, I suppose I unfortunately could be considered a "dandy" by certain
wags and pundits, at least physical fitness-wise. Clothing-wise,
I'd be wearing a menagerie of plastic bags everyday if Michi The
Angry-Looking Japanese Girl wasn't dressing me. She somehow
intuitively knows things like "black goes with everything", and
"exposed nipple doesn't look good on me". Ah, the mysteries of
the fairer, angrier-looking gender.
Maybe I'll head home, pop in a Teletubbies DVD, and drink some
scotch. Well, let's list some things I need to take care of
before heading off to the land of bizness:
1. Quit job #1 (est. Jun 16)
2. Quit job #2 (est. Jul 1)
3. Find a place, most likely in Emeryville (est. Jul-ish)
4. Dump paper money, turn into real money, give to business school, cry
5. Having going away party of some sort which will be capped off with a
series of apologies for hilarious yet regrettable incidents.
6. Go to Maui, go to pineapple winery that I might criticize the whole
concept of pineapple wine while sucking down copious amounts of it for
free
7. Eat stuff, haven't decided what yet.
Yep, it's a pretty full schedule. Now I'm off to lie down under my desk.
