Shadow of the colossus

flickrd by sfxian

best game of 2005 in my book. you ride around a horse in a vast land looking for mountain sized giants to take down with your bare hands. no enemies, all bosses. reminds me of lord of the rings, except without the hobbits and dwarves, and with 16 separate versions of sauron.

cody the kite

a bit better

managed to get my sad ass off the couch and out the door today.
rode around the city. down 280 a bit then back up the coast. then through the park and over to the bridge. stopped at crissy field and took cody out for a flight. cody is the name of my kite. named after the original designer.
man, i love flying that thing.
even got a little retail therapy in at sports basement. picked up a new beanie. now my head will be warm AND in style.
ran into sue and jeff over there. they'd just gotten off a bike ride. jeff has a friend who does bicycle repairs at a pretty good rate. i'm gonna have to get that number from him. been meaning to tune up that cannondale that's been sitting in the basement.

gonna play some more katamari damacy, then soph's having her friend mike over for dinner. miso glazed salmon! yumm

wallow wallow wallow

I'm not really liking myself right now.
what the hell am i doing with myself?
now that my project's almost over, i don't have anything to focus on besides post-breakup depression. partying doesn't really fill the void like it used to... just makes me feel more shitty. gotta put the pieces back together. waaaah.
it's like i know what kinds of things make me happy, but i have no desire to do any of them. either i'm too lazy or i'm too tired or i just don't really give a fuck. wallow wallow wallow.
whatever.
turn around.
ok here's a list to work off of
1) go fly your kite
2) go work out you lazy shit
3) get on your motorcycle
4) cook something besides ramen or a totino's and feed someone with it
5) paint something
6) make some music
7) play a video game
8) read a book
9) buy something ridiculously expensive
10) go figure out what you're going to wear for halloween

The saddest thing I've ever seen

Courtside

flickrd by sfxian

after the 3rd quarter we followed hong's lead to sneak past the ticket peeps and down to courtside. as soon as we got seated in the 3rd row, i pulled out my phone and started snapping courtside pics like this one. paranoia kicked in as security eyed us and strolled over.... "shit, they're gonna kick us out, they're gonna kick us out"
Instead we got, "Sir would you please put the camera down, you're blocking the people behind you"

this was the last photo taken of kermit before he jumped into the wild green yonder.

Froggy on my shirt

flickrd by sfxian

At the sunset party, I caught a tiny little frog in my hands and threw him on some shirtless friends for kicks.
As I held him and was ready to drop him on my next victim, he tickled my palm and jumped out of my hands and onto my shirt.
stuck around long enough for me to flickr him on my shirt.

this past week

i guess i should be thanking my job for giving me so much to occupy my time with over the past week. anything to take my mind off the pain helps.

played my first dodgeball game on thursday. i'm the captain of my team - "the donkeyballers".
one of my employees always says "donkey balls" when he's upset. the word spread through repetition and now it's our name.

a lots been accomplished over the past 2 consecutive 80 hour work weeks. i'm so glad it only gets this crazy once or twice a year. we're actually going to make the launch with a quality product. haven't felt this cocky bout running a project since the UO project a few years ago. better knock on wood.

the hard work has definitely taken it's toll on me though... so had to equilibrate with a few late nights out this weekend.
friday, started at the supper club for drinks, followed by the guerrero house for some poker hijinx followed by my semi-annual pilgrimage to the end up. had a great time, i think. i remember waking up the next afternoon at 4 and asking myself, "christian,,, were you a dickhead to anybody last night?". asked a few friends later, they didn't seem to think so...
saturday, worked a bunch till around 10pm, then headed out to sublounge to hear Amit's friends from boston rock the 2X4's. then D and I bounced into Jenn Lim and her friends over at a place in north beach. magnet bar i think. It was this guy Un's' birthday. Rich and linda were there, hadn't seen them in a while. we all tried to get to the deyoung but the line was way too long so we ended meeting some of Ds coworkers at a dwindling house party. Everyone was super nice that night. Felt good to hang with some different peeps.
Sunday got up and did some more work. then over to chris's for brunch with some of his sol system friends. Sam, Sydnor, Alan, Soph, and Luis. we had bloody marys with pickled lemons... and a scramble with feta and some home fries. yumm.
then back home for a bit more work. had to coordinate some work with a team in the uk. then out to the sunset party with brent and anna-mae. very relaxing. always a great way to wind down the weekend. i wish it was more windy though. was craving some kite flying therapy. we stopped at pacific catch on chestnut on the way back. like that place.

bedtime now,
nighty night.
