Sunday spills over into Monday... and Tuesday...

I was late for HSO planning again. I have to start going to sleep on time. It was a productive meeting though, and I really liked the atmosphere inside L&L's Hawaiian BBQ. I'm really starting to get into this...

Over to Martin's place for a long overdue haircut I owed him in exchange for some food. Good food. I have to steal that recipie from him one of these days. Getting the chance to catch up with Martin and Patty, I realized how little I see them and how much time I used to spend with or around them. Crazy.

Off to mass and benefit concert practice. There was something about the homily that struck me... not resisting when God tries to open our eyes. That usually involves stepping out of what you know and being completely vulnerable, but growth does not come without challenge. Choir practice was kind of short, kind of long, then everyone disappeared... so I went home.

This morning I found myself wide awake at 6:30 am, a whole two hours before my alarm was set to go off. I remember having some dream where I was back at my private school that I went to in LA, but I was all grown up, and I got the cellphone I bought on eBay to replace the one I lost a while ago... but I was pissed off because the phone I received was a crappy lower-end model. I thought that I ordered the wrong phone like a dumbass and got a cheap ass phone. That got me all annoyed. So after I woke up and blew mmy nose, I tried to go back to sleep. Damn. Gerald wakes up and sits at his computer and starts to read. I thought, "why the hell did he turn on his monitor is he's just reading?" Maybe 15 minutes later he finally starts to type something up and then blows his nose. Not even two minutes later he's blowing his nose again. Every damn two minutes for damn near an hour and a half he keeps blowing his nose. To make things worse, he's just honking his horn (ie nothing comes out) so it's freaking pointless. I was really to cuss him out and tell him to leave the room so I could sleep. That fool complained when my alarm went off for 6 (that's right, SIX) minutes at 8:45. This noseblowing garbage happened from 6:45 to 8:30 something. Little did I know Geeps was awake too and really to punch him in the nose. I was so tired I slept in and missed my classes. Damn.

I finally got the motivation to leave the apartment around 5:30 so I could eat lunch and meet up with my groupmates for my hollywood history class. Our meeting actually went pretty well. I think I misjudged the other two people in our group, but now I'm really glad we got paired up with them. We (Cristina+Geeps+me) chilled with Cressa at Cornerstone until I showed up (a little late) to the PUSO board meeting. A little talk about the PUSO male board member curse and now we're the Cubs of the dating world. I think it might be our year though. Only time will tell.

Back to the apartment to meet for Dee's birthday surprise. We taught some of the young'ns to play some Texas Hold'em, then rolled deep to Shawshank. NG, Kathee, Geeps, Boraccho and I waited in the parking lot across Shawshank until everyone arrived, messing around with the shopping carts trying to make Kathee dizzy. Over to Shawshank trying to be quiet while we snuck upstairs and sort of botched the surprise, but it's all good. The cake, though disgustingly expensive (stupid Gelson's) was great. The caking was pretty ridiculous too, in a funny way. We watched some Top Gun while Dee cleaned up (to prevent mouse and ant attacks) and eventually parted. I think I want to plan the next birthday surprise. It'll be spectacular. Or a big bust. Time will tell.

Pieces to sleepiness. God bless.
