allergy attack!!!!
May. 17th, 2003 12:24 pmSo I’m sitting here in Sacramento at Arden Fair waiting for Scilly to finish with work and for us to go off and do other things. I have come to the conclusion that the Barnes and Nobles next to Arden Fair…SUCKS. No outlets for my laptop, no cafes where I can indulge with a cup of tea. It’s nice that it’s next to a mall because I went out and bought a cute dress. Except I need an opinion on it. So I’m sitting here, bored out of my mind, having finished two novels at B&N, finished my sandwich from lunch, and half of my dvd. My back is currently hurting from the stupid back of this chair I’m currently occupying. So as I wait for my best friend to get out of work, I’ll recap my week.
Monday, I worked. I went to Kachang’s house after that to watch Drumline…and to catch the season finale of Boston Public. of course, I had allergies all day so I’m sneezing all over the place.
Tuesday, I was off of work and I went on the 6 mile walk with my coworker Milly. My allergies are getting worse but luckily, I had one tablet left of my allergy medication. After the walk, I came home to shower and crash for a 3 hour nap. I woke up slightly disoriented but otherwise okay…no allergy attack! I was online to play some puzzle games and Katrina YM’ed out of the blue to ask if I could buy some stuff for her. I said yes….and off I went to run the errands before ending at her house to watch an hour of the game 4 with the lakers and spurs. At 8pm, we switched it to American Idol. At 9, the boys wanted to catch the last few minutes of the game and we watched it, anxiously screaming for the spurs to win and the lakers not to get any more points! After that, we met up with Gene to go decorate Xman’s cubicle at Cisco. It was pretty fun. I never really got a chance to do that sort of thing to my coworkers…gave me some pretty nifty ideas….*naughty laughter* after all that excitement, I went home to sleep away a budding headache.
Wednesday, I woke up with a blinding headache and the feeling that I never really slept at all. I had hoped it would have gone away when I woke up, but alas, it was there to make a nuisance of itself. All day at work, all I can feel was pain. And to top it off, Milly was also in pain…..what a pair we make. But I got off at 4pm and went home. I ended up going to Sweetheart’s for a Pineapple Royale with no pearls. Met up with Rich there…ahahh..Mr. Richie Rich. Anyways…I left for my dance class….last day of both classes and we’re having a potluck for one of the classes….the bigger one. It shocked both Jimmy and I to see our ballroom class soooo big. Usually it’s the nightclub class that’s bigger. Oh well…it was a good experience. Ended it on a good note….went home to pray that the raging headache would go away in the morning.
Thursday was not a good day. I hated Thursday. It sucked raw eggs, to quote someone. Major raw eggs. I found out some bad things that’s gonna cost a lot of money for me to fix. I’m on drugs up the wazooo….or it just feels like it to me. Made more appts to take of some stuff…..like that stupid physical and tb test for my mentoring program. Gotta go next Tuesday. Blah….so I made all these appts in the morning since I had to work the closing shift. That sucked raw eggs too…stupid women who are pigs and don’t know when closing time is. Blah….they can take care of their kids and husbands but can’t take care of themselves when they’re shopping in a store. Sheer stupidity. I hate those women who aren’t nice too…..they made my headache even worse. I need to be drugged up more in order to tolerate them. More advil! I’m eating them like skittles!
So that leads me up to today. So i kept waking up throughout the night. At 3am, at 5am, at 6:45am….and I was finally dozing off again when my best friend called me at 7:04am. After my conversation with her, I spent the next 20 minutes trying to clear my sinuses. I swear, I went through a third of my box of tissues. My nose was resembling a lovable reindeer who likes to fly during xmas. Sucks raw eggs. Allergies flared up with a vengeance. I couldn’t breathe, my throat was raw, my head still ached from that stupid migraine that wouldn’t go away, and for some reason, my back was making it awful hard to walk. I know I’m complaining…but hey…my journal, right? So after all that loveliness passed on, I went downstairs to have breakfast with my parents as my siblings scrambled to get ready and leave. Sis had school and bro was going to LA right after work, so he was frantically packing. I made some eggs and listen to my parents do their morning bickering. As I was washing the dishes, my mom keeps telling me that my dad is too darn skinny and he’ll never fatten up. I then said “only in the tummy, mom!” She laughed and went to tell my dad on me.
A highlight of my morning. My mom told me that I had a beautiful body…”now only if [I] lost more weight then [I] would be even more beautiful”. Somehow…I heard that before…but it’s nice to know my mom kinda approves of the bootie. I always tease her about saving all the bootie genes from all her family members to give just to me. Not my sis…but to me. My sis looks like my dad….which I envy her for.....long legs, slender, no hair! Ahhah….but it’s all good. I got the bootie! *wicked smile* I can shake it like a black chiq….and I’m one of the few Vietnamese chicks with a ghetto booty. None of my lovely cousins have it…but then again…they’re all around 5’2” anyways…….shorties. My pygmy cousins…..LOL…if u know me, you know I love to refer my short cousins as the pygmies and my sis and I as amazons! Hahaha...love you too 6, Winnie, purelica, and jillbear…:-P
Anyways…I’m freezing in here….gonna go outside and warm up. It’s around 80 degrees here, so it’s pretty nice. Wonder if I can get some ice cream…..heh…laters….

After all that fun, Scilly finally got out of work around 6:30pm….i was soooo bored. I ended up sitting in the car outside her building around 6pm. Earlier I spent an hour in Virgin looking at different cds and thinking which one to buy since Virgin rips you off like a vampire looking for blood! I ended up getting a Donald Glaude cd…his second live mix. It’s pretty darn good!
Somehow, along the way to Scilly’s workplace, some middle aged black guy hollas at me from the car….he had seen me in Virgin Megastore, and saw me walk out, and while I was driving, pulls up beside me to strike a conversation. He wanted to be friends….and I politely told him that my boyfriend doesn’t like it when I make new friends and promptly sped off. Haha….actually…my boytoy doesn’t really care if I make new friends or not…it’s just that I don’t like black guys….chocolate is NOT my flavor. He prolly saw my ghetto booty and just wanted to holler. Besides….i’m getting kinda partial to white guys with pretty eyes! (watch out Courtney! I saw some really cute ones you would have liked!)
Scilly came out and we went over to spend about 5 min. in a bar with some of her coworkers….then we just left for dinner….yummm at Thai Basil. The one in Roseville is much bigger than the one in Sunnyvale when my boytoy took me….the Sunnyvale one, we were just crowded up next to each other whereas the Roseville one looked more like a spacious restaurant. The food was yummy and that’s what counts! After dinner, we ended up at the mall to look for a pair of earrings and bracelet for her younger sister….and for some cute undies for us! I bought this really cute nightie that was on sale….for $24!!! Coolness! And Scilly bought some undies at Express. We then went back to her house to chill before picking up her youngest sis, Cathy.
There are a lot of stupid kids in Roseville….and they are wannabe racers. This punk wouldn’t let Cecille merge into the lane. She had to almost STOP and let him pass so she can merge. What did the little punk do? He slowed down til he was next to her car and then revved his car before speeding off to the high school. I was PISSED. He was acting like a hotshot racer when he doesn’t have any good rims, his car was not CLEAN-shaven, he didn’t even change the lights to the altezza lights, his car was not LOWERED enough, and he didn’t even anything fancy on his car…just a stupid exhaust…which needed to be bigger, by the way. Yeah, don’t mess with bay area b**ches that race! Grrrr….Cecille and I were totally tearing his car apart on looks and performance. Ah well…to be young and stupid in high school……actually….i was never that stupid in high school……
Oh well…I went headed off to home around 11am….it was late, my eyes were killing me and I was dying of allergies…but I made it home, safe and sound right before 1am…I think I even came home before my sis did. Sometime during the nite, I think one of my parental units even opened the door to check on me…..but asleep and drugged that I was, I just ignored it and tried to get a good nite’s sleep. Ah…sweet oblivion.
until next time....
