Look how great I am...

So here is a summary of a Saturday.

  • 9am, alarm clock, hit snooze
  • 9:06 alarm clock, drag rear end out of bed, slowly whilst hitting snooze again
  • 9:12 alarm clock, turn off #&@! clock and read book (Fast Food Nation). Discover book is one third end notes. Get disgusted that 1/3 of what I paid for was freakin references that I'll never inspect.
  • 10am go grocery shopping
  • 11:30 skate MGT, run into Mike Lin (don't think he has a blog) turn around early and head home, so that I can...
  • 12:40 go to work! (*sob*)
  • 4:00 meet Kevin at my office, I'm still working
  • 5:30 finish work, Kevin shows me, on Peter's Blog (Speed Skate World on the right) there is a reference to Skater Dreams (See the Monday November 5, '07 entry on Speed Skate World). Yippeeeee! I'm on Speed Skate World. (I guess I'll have something to brag about when I get into the right hand column on Peter's blog.)
  • 6 go to Dinner with Kevin
  • 7:30 walk home, do laundry get ready for scooters and early to bed.

I would like to stress that today is Saturday, and look what I did at 12:40 this afternoon. If anyone ever tells me they want to work in IT, I am gonna bitch slap them back to the Tong (Tung?) Dynasty! (Alright if they want to go into programming, maybe just the Southern Song Dynasty.)

See I just had to brag about my knowledge of Chinese Dynasties, on the other hand my dearest wifey, who is now in Hangzhou is related, on her mother's side to a great Prime Minister of the Tung? (Or was it Song?) Dynasty. So I'm entitled to brag. (Alright you can roll your eyes now.)

Tomorrow, an explanation of how my great great grandfather was court tailor to Queen Victoria. (It's true, my father's father's father's father, was one of the many court tailors. But then I'm Jewish and here's a big secret about Jews, we don't do banking, and we're lousy with money, but we sure know our clothing, its hardly a coincidence that the maker of the first great sewing machine, Singer, was a good boy who always ate his corned beef. And the inventor of jeans, Levis & Strauss, more good tribes men, Salk and Einstein were aberrations, they must have been adopted. And look at where the "fashion district" is, where ever the Jews settled.)
