summer? does it matter?it happens to the best of us...
so many stuff to blog about, but either you have no time, or you're too lazy, or you just don't know how to do it.
don't be surprised. i'm probably one of those people who can't start writing at the drop of a hat. especially when under pressure. which is why my strama paper is still under construction.
before i got to this sentence i've already corrected two spelling errors, which would be a clue as to how tired and inattentive i am. and why i can't write a good blog entry right now.
so what happened in the last 2 months?
i've been so engrossed in watching csi and csi ny. i'm even starting to like csi miami (wow what a miracle huh). but i've been missing the last couple of episodes on axn. i'm more curious on what's happening in anticipation of the season ender which is showing this week in the us. just reading through all that talk on the numerous mailing lists i'm a part of is making my head spin. so many theories on the clues in the picture (see it from the cbs website). the funny thing is, i've had that picture since start of the season, i didn't know it was going to be such a teaser.
after a few months of lying low and cutting back on my favorite things, i made one of my first significant cd buys just last friday. i don't really care that i had to wait in line for the bus for over 30 minutes, i am just so happy to finally get the cardigans' first album, emmerdale. so now you have a clue on the story behind my alias. it's really pretty straightforward. what made that album stand out in my memory was that it contains one of my favorite cardigans songs, rise and shine. a great alarm tone, if i may say so. hence when i was thinking of a good email name, i thought, wouldn't it make a cool alias... and people have been asking me about it ever since. (by the way, some people really want to know what it means. so if you happen to know swedish or know someone who does, maybe you can tell me if it means something in that language. otherwise i'll keep thinking it's the name of the dog on the album cover. or i could just ask the cardigans.)
work has been piling up, though all of them are the sort that don't have real deadlines... it's like you just make some progress and it's a never-ending thing...
i've not done much on my strama lately. actually, i've not done much of anything lately. life has been a blur these past few weeks. sometimes i get the feeling that i've been bumming, and it's true in one sense. but i've also been so busy in another sense, most of my time is really taken up and everything else usually falls to second place. well, except when i go make takas to see a movie right after work and try to catch the regular bus trip at landmark. it's like i didn't watch a movie at all.
my uncles are here again for vacation. pretty soon we'll probably be seeing a gig or two at 70's or conspiracy. any ideas? we're choosing among bamboo, noel cabangon, joey ayala probably. we need a few more ideas. i suggested urbandub but they're probably not up to it yet.
hay, better log off because i'm leaving early tomorrow. once again it's monday, the worst day to be taking the bus to work.
