Fuck Farmers

I'm having a horrible day. Let's see... the assholes at Farmers decide to cancel my car insurance because my payment was a couple days late. Maybe if you have a online payment system that actually worked my fuckin payment wouldn't have been late. Instead you force me to write fucking checks to you every month. It's the only bill I pay with a check and snail mail. How can you expect it to be on time. Fuck you Farmers. You're officially on my shit list and I'll be calling you to give you a piece of my mind soon. Eat a dick.

Too Funny

sun: just go home for awhile and lets take a nap
HB: LET'S?
sun: i'll even keep my hands off u
HB: i don't think you can
HB: even from 2K miles away
HB: and being in the state that i'm in... i may even cave in
HB: ;-)

Bonus Received

Yay!!! I received a pleasant suprise today when my manager ducked into my cube and asked "Do you have a second?". I figured either I"m either about to get canned or I'm being handed another project that's going to kill me. I replied "aight" and walked over to her cubicle. I was greeted with a pleasant surprise: my yearly bonus. This whole time I figured we wouldn't be receiving anything this year due to all those cuts in January. Now that I think about it, all those cuts probably allowed us to get bonuses this year. Who the hell knows or cares. I'm estatic and this couldn't have come at a better time. It isn't too much... But it is larger than a single paycheck :D

TV Hallucinations

The new TV is huge. Possibly a little too big for this tiny ass apartment. Regular standard direct tv just doesn't do it any justice. I'm seriously eyeing that HDTV receiver now but like I said previously it just isn't feasible. Until them I'm going to enjoy these dvds again. I'm sure viewing them on this system will result in a completely different experience. I do have one minor complaint about the TV: there's an extremely subtle static "tick" coming from it. It occurs every 3-5 mins randomly. It's so subtle that K doesn't even notice it. In fact she thinks I'm hallucinating. I'm positive I'm not... More on this later.


Go Rox

The Houston Rockets face their arch enemy, the bitch ass Spurs tomorrow. We desperately need this win to avoid getting swept. Come on Rox.. have a little pride and go ballz out tomorrow otherwise you must the fact you are the worst NBA team in Texas. Hopefully Dunc and the boys ate some of that bird flu chicken spreading in South Central Texas ;-)


Time Management

I have a serious problem with time management. It's something I've never been able to grasp even since I was a child. I spend too much time chatting with ppl online, staring at stupid websites, or just sitting anywhere doing absolutely nothing. The successful hacking of myself strongly depends on mastering this elusive skill. Somehow.. someway. Figure it out man...


Case Closed

I've always longed to close her. I've spent probably hundreds of hours, albeit enjoyable hours, trying. Now I forgot why I started in the first place. What was the original objective? Was it Obj #1:To get her in the sack or Obj #2: To make her fall hard for me? Was it both? I don't even remember anymore. Now, in an honest, unbiased examination, I've come to this realization that either objective is possible and each has been possible for quite some time... and is frankly, today's current reality. The first objective was achieved probably a year or two ago and she hinted it when she said what she said last year. I still didn't get it. Even after HTown I still didn't get it. Today it hit me in the side of the head.. its a done deal. It's there if you want it.. Do I stop here or continue to on to Obj #2?? Although my chance at attaining this goal is highly possible, our distance apart truly prevents it. Who knows what I'll do about it...


Runaway Jury

By the way, Runaway Jury is an awesome movie. It's truly John Grisham's best film adaptation yet. More later... when I learn how to properly and verbosely critique a movie.

A Much Needed Upgrade

I had a nice writeup for this but something happened and it got deleted.. Anyways, the old Samsung finally died today. After a series of snap, crackle, and pops the thing made an eerie sounding screech and poof... the display was gone. Good to know you my dear friend. You've been the best. We've watched over ten thousand flicks and you've had three different game consoles attached to you over time. RIP playa... Now I had no choice but to finally come out of pocket. After hours of research about hdtv/hdcp/dvi I hopped in the ride and swerved through traffic to get to the local Best Buy. End result: Arriving Saturday (lets hope) I present to you... the Mitsubishi WT-42313 HDTV Monitor and the Samsung DVD-HD931 DVI DVD player. I initially wanted to get the whole HDTV setup but after careful consideration I decided against picking up that HDTV receiver. Other than for the NBA playoffs coming up and all those PPV movies HDTV just isn't really that important right now. Plus, it really isn't in the Q2 budget. If football season was starting tomorrow.. surely, without hesitation, but it isn't. Instead I opted for the best dvd player on the planet, one that will allow for HDTV quality from standard DVD, 1080i for you gearheads. Too bad I've gotta wait 2 days for the gear to arrive. For now I have to suffer through two nights with no TV.

On its Last Legs

I've you've actually been paying any attention lately you probably know that I generally refrain from talking discussing materialistic things and the means to obtain them. After all, anyone can talk about shit like that. I tried to bring something special to my readers (haha like anyone actually reads this), something from within. That being said, I'm going to contradict myself and talk about a major purchase in the near future: a big ass TV. Old reliable, 27" Samsung circa 1994, has been making annoying static-type sounds for a couple days now and I'm certain it on its last legs. It lasted longer than I every could've expected. The number of movies we've seen on the thing easily surpasses 10,000. We've watched thousands of sporting events, sitcoms, pornos, etc. It's even lasted through numerous game consoles. It's an end of an era... finally. In to replace the oldie but goodie I'm going to go ahead and splurge on a nice 42" TV, most likely a Mitsubishi, and a sweet progressive scan dvd player. It'll be worth every penny if it can provide this same type of utility the Samsung provided (even in half the time). I'm very excited.. I can't wait to see Lexus Locklear in action on HDTV ;-)


She's "Vulnerable"

M is my favorite sparring partner. She's kind of like my Quality Assurance department before I begin field-testing a move. I'm sure I serve a similar purpose for her too. It's been that way for quite awhile now and I am lucky to have her around. Problem is she just broke up with her BF so she isn't quite the same. Although she's been a little more uninhibited, at the same time she's been overly sensitive so she has a problem dealing with some of my "blows". Keep ya head up girl...

V-Day 2004 Continued.

Last night I took K out to Cortez Restaurant (link), for a belated Valentine's Day dinner. She looked absolutely stunning in some nice tight pants and a slinky low-cut blouse. I looked pretty fucking sharp myself. The overall style of Cortez was fresh. It combined an elegant art deco decor with California-French cuisine on small tapas style plates. The clientele consisted of older business execs and their wives or secretaries. Not exactly the hippest crowd but hey it beats the cheesiness of a bunch of young couples celebrating v-day. The food was impressive, to me at least. My favorites were the Croque Madame and the Ahi and as for the wine... we had a bottle of Syrah, Neyers Napa, 2001. K for the most part enjoyed the meal but complained about a couple dishes being a little bland but then again she's a perfectionist when it comes to food. Overall I enjoyed getting drunk with my beautiful wife as we ate a wonderful meal. Back at the pad...

I turned on some sexy jams. Not you're typical romantic quiet storm type stuff... I try to be more innovative than that. I put on some sexy but more upbeat songs, danceable songs... you know: gentlemen's club songs. I pulled up a chair and she gave me about 6-7 freaky lapdances. hooo weee. The rest of the evening to the early morning was pretty xxx-rated and I'd prefer not to share it ;-) I remember waking up butt nekkid around 7am to savor a pint of gatorade in bed. That hit the spot. Don't forget to stretch next time before v-day sex.


Random Quickies

I've been making signficant strides in finishing up these two classes I've been taking. I'm actually on pace to complete one lesson per week in each class... and earn excellent grades as well. Very impressive. Keep it up.

Here's my fant fb keeper squad: QB TBrady, RB THenry, RB CDillon, WR CJohnson, WR HWard. I'm a little shaky at RB since Dillon's status is uncertain and theres rumors out of Buffalo that McGahee and THenry may split carries. Ouch. Most likely I draft the best available RB in next season's supplementary draft.

You know that scene in 25th Hour when the character played by Edward Norton goes into a restroom, sees "Fuck you" scribbled on the mirror. He proceeds to go off on everyone including his father, this gf and even his boys. Yeah I love that scene. I can totally relate to it. It makes me feel so good.

STAND BRAVELY IN THE FACE OF DANGER

For the struggles that lie ahead
Strength comes from within
From an innate will to survive
You must find a way to rediscover it
Some how some way
It's what will make or break you
Don't ever forget it
