Gravity...

January 31, 2007...

It's been a couple of days now, these tell-tale signs. Signs like I'm in some kind of limbo. Like I'm stuck in something I have no chance of escaping, pulling me down.

Aimlessly walking... Aimlessly driving... Anywhere where my feet or where my gas can take me... Anywhere but where I'm standing...

I stop on occasion to look at something that catches my eye. I stare at it blankly for a couple of seconds. Sometimes I take a picture of whatever it is whenever I can. Nothing professionally artistic about it, just future reference to hopefully understand later on why I took that particular picture in the first place.

Trying to make sense of the confusion... Trying to reconcile the irreconcilable difference of man... Trying to solve the the mystery of the universe...

Or maybe even attempt to defy gravity.

It usually passes, this slump. Can't recall the average duration of recovery though. Not that I desperately want to know that particular statistic this very minute, but maybe somehow it would help. Just a little.

Thanks for the pics Ninja. We'll see. This wimp bleeds easily... +P

It's The Guys' Turn...

Time to give the guys some equal mention to my current music mood.

Enjoy...

Picking Up The Cue Stick For The First Time In 2007...

January 19, 2007...

Venue : Paeng's at Eastwood Mall

Playing Partner : Emcee

Better. But rusty after a long absence.

As usual, I'm not consistent in all of the shots in my repertoire. Have to play regularly again in order to call on that consistency at will. Emcee played some inspired billiards that night, compounded by a lot of careless errors on my part which brought the score 8-3 in his favor at one point. I was extremely lucky to tie the score to 8-8 (but barely) before we called it a night. Some pride salvaged right there. +P

A shaky start to my year but it was a good feeling nonetheless that I get to play again after a long vacation. Hope to play billiards against Emcee and the rest of the gang soon.

3000 Silent Visits And Counting...

Whether it was by me or somebody else somewhere in the world... Thanks for visiting! Feel free to visit again! :D

Nerina, Sandi, Regina, Etc...

These songs are bit of a stretch from my usual music genres/playlists. Never really bothered with the lyrics on these, as you would hear for yourself. Some I really dont make any sense of, some just a catchy tune. They just found their own niche in my heart when I hear them play on the radio during my frequent drives home...

Enjoy.

Running At 85%...

Been away from work these past couple of days because of the flu.

Played against Ronald and Kim. Lost to Ronald on my first BBL game. Will schedule another game with Kim soon. Kim and I played WOW using my hunter deck. Got to squeak in at least one win out of three games. Not bad.

Stayed home most of Monday and Tuesday. Never got to do anything. Only thing in easy reach were my WOW decks. Time for a change of characters. Maybe the Fire Mage and the Night Elf Hunter decks I can build. They're not exactly competitive on a regional level I'm sure, but fun to play nonetheless. Looking forward to tweaking those decks in the next couple of days...

Aimless Thoughts...

A High Scoring Entourage...

Wedding season still on. This time its my cousin Toni and Kim. My sister helped out with the organizing, with me helping out in some small things. Couldnt stand there waiting in line with the rest of the entourage with chaos all around me. ;)

Dad was ninong, I was a candle sponsor. Highlights include me winning the bridal game. Crap. +P

And Work Haunting Me...

Earlier in the day, I had to go to the office despite my having filed for a leave of absence due to an emergency meeting called by my bosses. An incident close to four months past has been brought to our attention by our clients seeking an explanation for said action. Since on paper I had a direct involvement in it, I had to explain my side of the story to set the record straight. And we have until tomorrow to make a formal response to it.

Some unwanted stress right there.

January 12, 2007...

Speaking of additional stress, was able to give her a call today. Just a harmless birthday greet. Miss her all of a sudden. Wouldn't mind seeing her again. Soon.

So Happy Birthday to you A.S.! Wherever you are...

Car Trouble...

January 5, 2006...

What a way to start the day. Was making good time on the way to the office when out of nowhere the engine's just died on my. Luckily the car still had enough momentum to pull over.

Took close to 4 hours to get a tow truck. Plus a couple more to find out from the mechanic what's wrong with the car as well as the estimate on parts. Screwed up my day, and my wallet pretty good.

Present day...

Its now a Monday and the car's not yet done. Forced to take up the local commute, which has been a while since the last time I tried it. Its a small inconvenience considering I have to take on rush hour while taking the local commute compared to driving at a time of my choosing.

Hope this is all temporary. Oh well...
