Is today Friday the 13th? I burned myself taking a pan out of the oven. It's
only a small burn, but damn does it hurt. I got a blister on each little toe
of each foot. The tennis shoes that I've had for more than two years and are
well worn, gave me blisters. Perhaps because I wore them without sock. Who
knew that the small barrier a thin sock provides is necessary? And in karate,
I just couldn't seem to do anything right. I got corrected on techniques that
I know how to do, but I couldn't execute properly.

I went carpet shopping tonight with the sister who is not genetically bound
to screw up a room. I picked out a plush charcoal gray carpet. It also seems
that I wasn't supposed to rip up the old tack strips. You're supposed to leave
the old ones down and then the new carpet is put on top. Just another mistake
to blame on my dna.

Push up hell. Apparently we don't know how to fall correctly, so we spent
15 minutes practicing dropping to the ground, face first, and then jumping
back up again. Somehow I'm not convince the proper way to fall is the best
way. I've never been sore after doing things my way. Nor have I ever jarred
my forearms into the ground for a stinging sensation that I'm supposed to
"suck up."
06/08/03
Day of dog urine, carpet removal, house cleaning and no paint buying at WalMart.
I got tired of waiting for someone to help me in the paint section, so I left.
I grilled a steak. Gave the dog a bath. Ate some cookies.
06/07/03
I finally made it to a Sat morning karate class. I figure that the only way
to get better is if I go to more classes. Don't know if I got better, but
I didn't get worse. I also went shopping. Got a pair of shoes, two funky shirts
and two new bras. Maybe I'll toss out some of those old, worthless bras that
don't offer any support.

Be gone beer. Never thought I'd say that, but after only one beer tonight,
I called it quits. Beer is not my friend. In fact, right now I believe beer
is an annoying relative.
06/05/03
I hate meetings. Didn't get anything accomplished today because of a personnel
meeting, conference call, employee meeting, and finally, an overall supervisor
vs underling bitch out. On the plus side, I did so many sit ups, crunches,
chair lifts and stomach exercises today in karate, I'm not thinking about
my pointless day anymore.
06/04/03
My bowling dreams are shattered. I was well on my way to the most improved
bowler title in my league. On my way until Beverly abruptly ended my dreams.
She improved 17.5 pins and I improved 17.2. I knew I'd get screwed.

Work sucks. I'm having designer's block right now. I'm not even in the mood
to drink beer. Am I ill?
06/01/03
I have nothing to say after two beer nights.
05/31/03
The day after the night of beer. I slept. Oh and I slept some more, until
I got up and went to a party. Why is beer so good to me?
05/30/03
The night of beer. Drinking from 4:30pm til midnight is hard on the liver.
Some how Mark and I got our beers mixed up and I drank a pint of Abita Amber.
Yuck, nasty stuff. Dos Equis Amber all the way. I wish Dell would keep her
weird friends away. We don't mix well with others.
05/29/03- Say goodbye the dress clothes. The big wig is gone, so I get to
wear "rags" again. I spent more time today driving the big boss
around town. He hates the WOMAN too. He changed his flight plans to leave
1 day early.

You may recall my quest for Most Improved Bowler in the league? Well damn
that Beverly. She bowled so well last week, she also improved 1 point. However
this week, I got it together and stuck it to her. Now we are both tied with
16. As I've learned in this league, my team always get screwed somehow. I
expect her to take the cash prize home based on some unknown rule. I think
we should split it. Hey I've worked just as hard, gimme some money. Oh and
I had my best game ever - 181. In fact it is the best game ever for the entire
team for either year. Bow to me bowling losers.
05/27/03
Took M'ChaCha to karate with me. She seemed put off by all the bowing and
ritualistic stuff. Honestly, after about a month you don't even think about
it. Then she was confused by the counting. We count in Korean. Again, in a
month's time, you won't even notice your speaking in another language. You
would think she'd understand that since she's French.

Most of the world is off today, except us. Since traffic was light, I rode
my motorcycle to work. It's been about a year since I've ridden to work. Why?
Last time I rode, it rained. It hadn't rained in weeks until I hop on my bike.
Guess what? Same damn thing this time. Only a 20% chance of rain today. Well
that turned into a 100% chance. I got soaked.
05/24-25/03
Yard work and painting...this was my weekend. I did catch the Matrix Reloaded.
Worth the watch but different than the first.
