look at that! i thought i was going to be posting on the 15th, two days after the last post, but hey! i've got 54 minutes to go! sweet!
no work again today; that rounds out the pay week at 10 hours, though five of those hours are premium, so i get a bit more money for those. which is pretty sweet. what did i do? well, a whole lot of nothing... i figure yesterday was sooo productive that today could be a little un-productive. i took a two hour bus journey to get my nalgene back from the rec center i worked at last night, so that was... well, a waste of time. then i went to the gym, that was good.
for dinner, i went with bernie to eat with old friends of ours from when we lived in noe valley, which i believe was 1992-94... so, old friends. they're the landmans: jim, debbie, katie and max. when we lived across the street from them, both jim and debbie ran their coffee business, selling landmark coffee beans, though since debbie has become a sixth grade teacher. anyway, they're all great. back in the day, me and bernie spent copious amounts of time over there, mostly playing on max's sega genesis (our parents denied us video games); but as the years have gone on and we've all grown up, it's just been a lot of great conversation. debbie is a stitch, and me and her kind of have this weird comedic... there's this word that i'm looking for that i can't find; it's somewhere between synergy and cooperation and collaboration... i feel like there may be some funny sound in it, like a "sh" or "f" or something french maybe. anyway, if yout hink of the word, tell me. i was saying that we just have this patter we kind of get into, and it's a lot of fun.
so yeah. afterwards, i drove bernie and max, and then picked up three more of bernie's friends, and deposited them at a third party's house so they could have a lost party... it seemed strange, because most of the people in the car were doing a whole "i'm above lost thing," which i found pretty stupid, but whatev. it was weird, though, thinking about who i represented, and i had to come around to the fact once again that i have no idea what it's like to have an older sibling. strange, strange. also, all those college kids hanging out together reminding me strongly of what i had previously believed were high school kid characteristics made me feel ancient. lame.
all right, well that covers it. until next time?
