22 October Clubbing in Downtown Walnut CreekFound out from Bev that choir members decided to go clubbing at Groove
in Downtown Walnut Creek. Got there at 9pm (free) but didn't start
dancing until after 10:30. Saw lots of cute guys--one who even looked
like 1/2 WM, 1/2 GK. Danced a lot. Wished I could dance more but have
to get up early to run errands before the Jinelle's baptism. Had a lot
of fun. Hope to do it more often. 18 October 2005 NFL Week 6Won this week's pool. Only missed one game--picked NYJ instead of
BUF. Psychic? I was working late on Friday and sent an email to
JK, JR, PS saying that although I was working late I'd be thinking of
the ways I'd be spending my winnings (in addition to saying that I
didn't want to think about the Giants because they weren't in the
playoffs, about not thinking about my beloved 49ers, but that I'm
looking forward to hockey season and the Sharks). Anyways on Saturday
after going to the post office, getting my hair done, and watching
Elizabethtown (which was unexpectedly good) I changed two picks--MIN to
CHI and NYG to DAL. Then Sunday morning, I woke up early (7:30) took a
shower, made 3 changes to my picks (NE to DEN, PIT to JAC then
BUF to NYJ), got coffee/newspaper/gas, watched CBS Football preview
while browsing the Sunday ads before going to Church. In addition to my
usual prayers (about my dad, grandfather, uncles, cousin, etc. family
and friends), I prayed that I win most of my games. We got lunch at
Wendy's then went to Best Buy. That's when I watched the scores. There
were some games that had ended and I had picked the winners. There were
some that were at OT and some that had a few minutes left, I was either
winning or tied. I waited for all the games to end and noticed that I
was 9/9. I watched the DEN/NE game but found out that NYJ lost to BUF.
I had to win the DEN game or else I'd be tied with some people. DEN
ended up winning. Then I watched the SEA game even though everyone had
picked them (and everyone also picked IND) so I was guaranteed the win. I also watched MNF because I wanted IND to win over STL. When I got home, they were down 7-17. Then they scored 14-17 but STL scored a field goal 14-20 before halftime. IND ended up scoring...a lot...31 more pts while STL score just 8 more points. Final score...STL 28, IND 45. Yea! I won. Kinda feel bummed that I lost one game. Wish I was perfect. 11 October New object of my affection...JensenJensen Ackles. First noticed him on the first episode of last season's
Smallville as Jason Teague, Lana's boyfriend. Hot, hot, hot! Gorgeous.
But I stopped watching...working late plus I wasn't into that Lana as a
witch storyline. I don't like Jensen being a villain. Didn't know that
he was runner-up to Tom Welling to play Clark Kent. I can't picture him
as Clark. I think that Tom is the perfect Clark--tall, dark hair,
muscular. Didn't notice him in Dawson's Creek as Jen's boyfriend C.J. Was too caught up in the Dawson/Joey/Pacey storyline. But yeah he was cute then. I didn't catch him in Dark Angel because he was in the second season. I watched most of the first season but during it's second season I must have watched another show that had the same timeslot. Didn't catch him Days of Our Lives. Must have been on DOOL after I graduated college and started working. Too bad. Now he's on Supernatural as Dean Winchester. Totally HOT. I love his character. And him playing Dean shows how much talent he has. 04 October Not quitting time...yetToday I talked to Brad about Fab's production assistant
job offer (took Lisa's advice). I was so nervous. Didn't know how to
tell him. I told him
that I wasn't actively looking for a job and how Fab had told me about
the position a couple of months and that their benefits has caused me
to think about it more seriously. Decided not to take it. A
load off of my
shoulders after thinking about it all weekend (even at the baby shower,
at Kristin's spa party, and at the Church BBQ). Today I also received
the offer letter. Along with various documents including the employee
handbook, 401k booklet, W4, and insurance forms. Now I feel bad. 03 October Babies and decisionsFour baby showers in the past few months. I so want a baby. So when is my turn? I helped plan the games at Irina's shower last week and went to Mel's baby shower on Saturday. Jealous. Gotta take action. But what? Fab offered me the production manager assistant job. I'm happy at DP except for that one thing. I wasn't really looking but somehow Marcela told Fab that I'd be interested. Not really. But then I find out that the company pays for health insurance and $65/month for commuter checks. I'll be gettting paid more and I'll get a bonus at the end of the year. I'll have my review at the end of the year and I'll probably get promoted to production manager and get a raise. I'll be losing one week of vacation and won't have ESPP. I don't know how well I'll get along with the other co-workers. A lot to take into consideratin. Gotta make a decision. |
