MOVING ON UP!

...well not really...just one cubical over and across from where i used to be, but it's got a window, the chair's got armrests, the computer's got a CD rom (still no sound card tho) and it's not on the engineering manager's way out of his office...so hopefully no more tapping fingers that scare the heck out of me.
so nice to look up and see the outside with the sun shining and happy stuff like that...of course it will get depressing when everything outside turns white, and then brown...and stays that way for months....but i will enjoy this while i can. YEAH!

yeah telephone calls are fun. thanks grace for calling and totally making my day....hehe someone loves me =)

ARGH
the plan was to come home christmas and take the extra DVD player just lying around at home (i paid for it so it's ok) to watch all the movies you guys will be recommending me on my previous post. but then i took a look at the old hunk of junk my aunt gave me (the up and down channel buttons don't work and only go to channels 3, 8, 11 and 13 so you have to punch each number in...makes channel surfing rather difficult) and THERE'S NOWHERE TO PLUG ANYTHING INTO IT!!!
i checked front, back, sides....no...nothing...AHHHHHHH

simon and his friends are all doing this survey thing on their blogs where you recommend them books, music and movies...realized how much of a hole i've been living in since i can't really think of that last good book i've read...or any book at all. i'm still listening to music from my dad's generation and i haven't seen a movie since the summer....so i'll let you guys fill it out for me...don't worry you get something out of it too...
here goes...

(A) First, recommend to me:
1. a movie:
2. a book:
3. a musical artist, song, or album:

(B) I want everyone who reads this to ask me three questions, no more, no less. Ask me anything you want.

(C) Then I want you to go to your journal, copy and paste this allowing your friends to ask you anything.

went to the store with joni to buy food. reached for the no name brand smoked turkey, but let joni convince me to spring for the low fat "lean and tastey" one for 1 cent more...mistake. tastes like rubber...am reminded why i had sworn off low fat stuff till then...shiver...never again...fat is my friend...

but speaking of friends...i am finally starting to get some here...
i know i'm long due for some pics, so here are some of the girls at church.
here we (next to me in the cap is aimee, then becca, karen, irene and cel) are pigging out on some yummy pie that joni topped with delicious icecream...neither of which were fat free thank you :P
 

been waiting for a real good story to tell you all about, but realizing more and more that something like that is not likely gonna happen soon and even me looking at my own blog not being updated is getting on my nerves. so until anything exciting happens in my life i will blog about everyday randomness...i guess like i always have...

but yes life here is not the most exciting. it's stable and nice (got a permanent job so that good) but not exciting. work is work learning alot but I just sit in my office (they call it an office but it's just a cubical with three walls and when the engineering manager walks by he likes to run his fingers along desks the passes and it's kinda weird...but guess it keeps me on my toes) and do work. this weeks it's PSV sizing. every once in a while i'll go for drinks with my collegues on fridays which is kinda funny coz they are the same stereotypical crude yet still nerdy engineers that i've gone to school with for the past 4 years...but then we get back to the office and we don't really talk. my best friend in the office is spot...the animated microsoft office help assistant...and i know he doesn't have any spots...but still. a guy from church who does tech support for office says the one most common thing people call to ask about is how to get rid of those stupid annoying things...and i used to find them annoying as ever too, but....now he's my only friend.

i know i know you're all feeling sorry for me...but don't it's not all bad here...i have learned how to steam fish and make some good chinese soup so i am well fed...wait...that means i'm just gonna get mighty fat sitting in my cubical all day...oh...boo...
