formal intro

i have really started to enjoy me some good ol' SNL. i find kenan thompson to be hilarious in the roles that he plays as the 'black guy' in many of the skits. his delivery is one of my favorites, prolly right up there with will ferrell in his ability.
the other cast member that i really like is kristen wig. her characters in the style of gilly, the kind that get ridiculously silly and way over the top reactions to average situations are tops.

on the subject of humor, a co-worker told me that her grandma thought that 'lol' stood for lots of love. i guess it was okay until her uncle steve died and her grandma sent a text message saying: uncle steve died, lol. it is now a family joke for them. props to grandma for have dexterous enough thumbs to be able to text.

i have discovered 'supercity' on facebook. it's a lot like simcity of my childhood, but takes a lot longer. it will cut into the sleep, i'm sure.

grammy/grammy

i feel that my job puts me in a weird position. obviously, i have a job. boom goes the dynamite. but the idea that i'm working full time and getting paid more puts me one step ahead of the student workers. i try to be friends with them and such, but i feel that being too friendly kind of makes things awkward when corrections need to happen. but at the same time, i'm the lowest guy on the totem pole at work. i live in the purgatory of work. somebody needs to pay the job priests so i can move on with my life.

i've played this game for about 15 hours now. sooo good

heavy leaf

so it's december 2, i haven't heard anything from the Princeton.

there is something about having open spaces. clean, open spaces. i have lived in this house for over 4 months tomorrow, and i'm still battling the open spaces in my house. last night i spent the time to clean organize the areas that i spend the most time in.

taking the time to open it up, it makes me feel good about walking into sucha room. the furniture has a place. each decoration has a purpose. lines move and make sense from each object. colors belong, putting attention on good focal points. modern and minimal. curves, not corners. light, not darkness.

today we celebrated festivus in our office for all the Seinfeld fans out there. grievances were aired and the pole was erected. no tinsel and out boss was beating in a thumb wrestling match.
