the beat July 24, 2007
well, i’m exhausted after the past two days, which have been pretty busy. but it’s been good. i had a wonderful weekend in san carlos, but now i’m back in the o.c. and returning to my regular life.
so yesterday, mom threw a family birthday party for me at the house. she had a lot of italian food (woot!) and invited the family over for lunch. of course, that also meant that she sent me to retrieve grandma from her house in the city before the party. at least i got to take the new car and enjoy listening to the satellite radio. also, grandma was really chatty on the way back to the house, so that was surprisingly fun. :) and it was great to see the family, even if my cousins brenda and jason weren’t able to make it. also, theresa is back from her tour through europe, so it was great to see her and hear about her adventures there. :)
in the evening, mel, kath, and i went out for a birthday dinner. :) we had amazing japanese food at ozuma (a san carlos institution). mmm… veggie tempura and the best ramen ever! and then we went over to bj’s for pizzookie for dessert. we only needed one to share. we ordered two. haha! it was a wonderful time! just look…
  
  
see? looks amazing, right? ;)
and then today! i had to get up at 5:15 to make my 7:30 flight out of san francisco so i could get to work this morning. turns out, however, that the flight was delayed because the crew’s flight last night got in late. yeah. so i was half an hour late and didn’t actually make it to work until 10:30, but that’s how it goes.
work was pretty uneventful today. i worked, though i was really tired, so i avoided some of the bigger projects. tomorrow will be better for those, i am thinking.
after work, i had a couple errands to take care of, and then i planned to get home early and crash early. one of the few things i wanted to pick up tonight was the sountrack to the movie “hairspray.” so looked for it at target (it was in their sunday ad, after all). sold out. so i looked for it at costco. sold out. so i looked for it at best buy. sold out. irvine best buy? sold out. borders? sold out. barnes and noble? you guessed it… sold out. seriously?!?!?!? i should have bought it when i was at best buy on saturday morning before i saw the film. so i told adam he must find one near him and bring it to me when he comes down on thursday. how are there no copies anywhere? the guy at b&n told me they sold them faster than “harry potter” books, which i’m sure was an exaggeration, but still! so anyway, i was out until about 7 looking and failing.
and since then, i’ve just been hanging out at home enjoying a little dinner and catching up on some tv. i am thinking i need to get to bed, however, so i’m off. g’night. ;)
