ah. contrary to popular belief [and because I said it], the last entry was not my LAST entry. I figured I would have a special California edition while I was out in California before I finish consolidating my diaries.
Some things that are interesting while out in California:
--i went to street scene. my dormant hetereosexual crush on shirley manson has resurfaced.
--i went to a wedding where i saw a bunch of people i hadn't seen in years. a guy, whom i was extremely close with but lost touch with [for those who know, it was Thai S.] and he was talking to some girl, i tapped him on the back and he turned around and gave a dramatic look of shock and said "OH...MY...GOD...Sharon [enter last name here]" then whomever he was talking to said "this girl was my bestest friend in high school!!" and he hugged me. We ended up talking all night. Good times.
--A bunch of people i saw either lost or gained a bunch of weight [mostly the latter], I, am pretty much the same...maybe a little heavier. speaking of which...
--When I fly back to Massachusetts, i'm going on the "I'm the Maid of Honor, I gotta look unbelievably hot" diet. I have EXACTLY a year to fit in this strapless, short maid of honor champagne dress. Now I have a goal. This should be...interesting.
--I went to a yoga class and anybody will tell you...i do NOT sweat at all. I just don't know why. But, not at yoga class. I was sweating like a mofo...I actually became disgusted with myself and YOGA IS HARD. However, I quite enjoyed the challenge and am interested in seeing about yoga classes in MA...
--I miss that people who care about sports. People don't really care here so..whilst I'm super excited to check out the new baseball park here [Petco Park], I could only get people who are not necessarily interested in baseball but rather just wanna hang out with me. Hey, I'll take it but I guess no sports talk...
--the weather is BEAUTIFUL. How can anybody leave this?
--I accidentally called the five [interstate five] "route five"...can you believe that shit? My siblings were saying 'what HAPPENED to you? it's not a route!' [and yes, they pronounced route the way it's supposed to be pronounced, [rhyming with 'bout'] not the way people say it back in MA, which is "root" ]
--I was told "oh my god, you sound so WHITE!" AHHHHH. I lost any ability to do my impression of a filipino accent. But some people are enjoying my impression of a boston accent [which actually isn't very good]
--I see more boston red sox hats here than any other hat...and this is San Diego!
--my dog Sally has NOT forgotten me and is uber excited to hang out with me again.
Okay, that's it for now. Things to be coming up:
--another wedding...
--going surfing with my sister tomorrow
--going to the padres game today
--going to LA to see some x-games action on thursday
--going to IKEA [yes!]
--carne asada chips, here i come...
--there are NO POTHOLES on the streets! and the freeways are mad huge!!
and i can't believe i'm saying this, but i'm kind of missing massachusetts... but why?
