Welcome Back to Seattle Post

Hey y'all...

Yeah yeah...been lazy with the post since I have been back. Once again, I have been busy, trying to readjust into my structured unpredicable life here in Seattle. Yes, I am at busy at work (kinda)...did you know I have work waiting for me when I got back...I mean, it could have been done by someone else I assume but no...they waited for me to return so I can do it...

And I still haven't even unpacked fully from my trip...in fact, my place is a utter and complete mess now and I dont know when I can straighten everything out (will be out of town this weekend...more on that someother time). Not only that, I have tons of things to watch (new DVDs bought in Toronto) and play (games I bought), not to mention the shit load of downloaded TV shows I still have to watch on my PC. At least my 2 weeks worth of backlog Tivo has been caught up (most of it anyways).

Anyways, here are the highlight of the past week:

--my final day in Toronto consist of lunch with my mom before my friend Leila came to pick me up to go to the airport. We even had time to stopped off for a quick bite to eat and even Square One shopping mall for some last minute geek shopping. We chatted on what was important...video games :)

--flight to Denver and then to Seattle. Much longer than when I did it the other way. And oh, on my Denver to Seattle flight, for some strange reason, I really needed to go to the bathroom a lot....like REALLY a lot...but the worst was during take off when I really had to go...but i couldn't until the "captain has turned off the fasten seatbelt light". I was dying...

--thursday...back to work with work waiting for me. Nothing I couldn't handle...

--thursday nite...was going to go home and start cleaning up my place but I get a phone call from Porn. Funny thing about this guy...EVERYTIME he has a flight into Seattle, HE ALWAYS MISSES the flight out of it. So, he gets stranded in Seattle and he usually calls me for a place to crash. Luckily, airlines gave him a hotel room to stay in so he called just to go hang out. We go see The Chronicles of Riddick. That movies made absolutely NO SENSE whatsoever. Made Pitch Black look Citizen Kane or something..

--Friday: dinner in Alka Beach with Linh and her hot lawyer sister. Did I mention, that this is one of the first time I found parking in a busy place AND I PARALLEL PARKED all by myself in to the spot?!! Woohoo! After dinner to Linh's place, waited for Angela, sucked into watching Euro Trip Uncensored (awesome movie!) and then drinks at Triple Door with Justin and Paul and Andrea...

--Saturday: lunch with Oiyan and Jimmy. Then went home to build my Star Trek Enterprise model I got (it so fuckin' detailed and it even lights up! just awesome--yeah I am a geek) and sleep the whole afternoon away (no cleaning up yet). Dinner at Oiyan's with Jimmy and Chee Chen...and then I convinced everyone to go watch The Terminal after reading Denny's review of it. It was a good movie but I dont think I had that much of an emotional connection as Denny did. Maybe my heart is black...

--Sunday: tennis in the moring. Dim sum at lunch. Fremont Fair in the afternoon (somekind of hippy fair). Hanging out with Justin, Paul and Andrea in the evening at their place, watching Family Guy on DVD

--Monday: work, working out in the evening...missed strip club outting with the boyz :(

--Tuesday: doctor appointment in the morning. work. Dinner at Linh's (she cooked it herself). Love Actually viewing afterwards.

Now you are all caught up!
