march 26th, 2017: me vs the candle (round 1)

the vapormax's are coming out today. if it wasnt for the adidas barrage yesterday, maybe id jump on those. but alas it was not meant to be.

gym time with binh. he seems to really want the results, but lacks patience. though it can make for entertainment at times as was the case with him trying his darndest to get in position for that rope ab workout thing.

nap. finishing off 1602. it was pretty good for a while, but the ending was odd.

talking to olivia for a while about nothing really.

practicing songs for orlando.

i decided to trim the candle wick because its been going for a few hours. so i cut it. let it settle for a bit and cool down then go to re-light it. naturally i tilt it and thats when things just went to crap. i have no idea how to deal with that.

march 25th, 2017: can you reach the pizza?

so its quite the shoe release today. in a change of pace, its mainly adidas with releases and restocks. it was a big deal and their site reflected it.

gym. i went heavier than usual, bu less sets to save time. the 70s on bench wasnt bad at all.

while at the store an old woman asked me to get pizza off the top shelf. it made me feel good in a way for being able to use my height for good, but it also made me question how long she was there and wouldve stayed there.

nap

i had to go to blink-182 with nicole and friends. i wasnt looking forward to it. and we were going to stay overnight... luckily that fell through. the show was pretty good and it was nice to finally see the naked and famous.

naturally, part of the party wanted to go drinking. so we went back to the place where we had dinner. this time, rather than underwhelming food we got overwhelming noise. so that was great. but ring of honor came on so thats cool. unfortunately, it sparked some talk from nicole about how rings are made and how people dont get injured. shes so f'n dumb. 

a long drive back. i shouldve gone to sleep.

archer. sleep.

march 24th, 2017: how big is your afro?

gym. a trip to the staples/ups store. then off to the dentist. its a bit of a busy morning. the dental thing was a little smoother than im used to. that guy from the gym works there...who knew? early on i was looking at his assitants hair and thinking about braids and such. i figured she would have a question or two about mine and right on cue she did. 

off to work. listening to death cab for cutie until its time for lunch. trying to find things to do. and then im called off for another 'appointment.' fantastic. 

work again. home for lunch. back to work. im uncharacteristically tired. i may have been sleep at some point. 

i got a reply from pcs about the evil-lyn statues. their email checkers dont seem to be very up on inventory matters. that doesnt really give me a good impression of their store. and greatly lowers my hopes of completing my little trio.

home around 3:30ish because it had to happen. i shouldve checked my mail first since those khaki nmds came in. days ago.

nap. its very overdue.

about a week ago i snoozed messages telling me about an incoming winners circle coupon and buying those flyknit 90s. crazy enough i just dealt with those two things yesterday. 

flash. american dad.

march 23rd, 2017: 93% black

and for the second time this week, i didnt set my alarm. its a good thing im so used to waking up early. 

the morning was supposed to be more walking around with safety people, but thats not happening. woo hoo for that. that means more time for other stuff. i shouldve finished off 1602 and was going to, but i kinda just forgot and started doing other stuff. probably for the best.

lunch with cox. its been awhile and naturally we ended up at popeyes. he seems to be pretty into that place. 

more work stuff so i can rush off to the gym without feelings of neglect. its crazy windy outside. and crazy dusty. it kinda hurts. 

my air max 90 ultra flyknit 2.0s came in today. i expected them to be too big since the nike site said something about that. and they were. so dang. and theyre out of stock now. luckily finishline had them for the same price, but with promotional free shipping and a winners circle code for $20 off. not too shabby. i even got a shipping number a couple hours later.

grading awards things. apparently ashley didnt stand a chance. i mean, thats not surprising. at all. but damn. 

and i fixed the issue with office on metal. so thats pretty all right. it was so limited that i couldnt even type. what features did i have?

march 22nd, 2017: im going to osan: the binh le story

it's wednesday, but no gym. that sucks in a way. mostly because it was due to some safety nonsense that im still wrapped up in. it was very time consuming and i didnt care for it.

and because its a wednesday, sometimes that means its a meeting day. today was one of those days. i had a lot more to say than usual and i didnt care for it. though i did have some good material and got a couple laughs. that makes it a little easier.

kristian's getting promoted early so there was a little thing at his building. supposedly theres more good news to come.
binh: is it a new shirt?

back to work eventually to check over some emails. the english language can be a bit tricky at times. a misplaced comma here. missing hyphen there... turns out i asked someone to please resign. though in retrospect, id be ok with it.

round two of gym time with binh and tristan. it sure made me feel pretty good about being in decent shape. so thats something. it was a decent workout minus the last two things. that sitting tricep thing and the situp machine are just awful.

band "practice." le joined us this time around and it seemed to work out pretty well. it was more fun than productive but sometimes thats important.
