Heehee... Eileen and I were just joking around about her moving back in... just like on Friends when Joey moved out and Eddie moved in and then after Eddie turned psycho and Joey lost his Days of our Lives job, Joey and Chandler moved Eddie's things into the hall, Joey moved back in and they changed the locks... then when Eddie knocked on the door, they just pretended like they didn't know him, that Joey had been living there all along... hmmm...
Changed the title of my blog again... Seinfeld reference for those that don't know. YEAH, I'm Bored!
2 things - 1) You learn a lot of things by flipping through a Williams-Sonoma catalog... what kind of knives are used for what and that there is a overpriced kitchen gadget for every little cooking task you can come up with. The catalog is cool though - if I made as much money as my clients did, I'd shop Williams-Sonoma.
2) I need to vent about my roommate! You'd think Eileen and I would be on each other's nerves when we lived together cause we saw each other all day (share an office even!) and we lived together but surprisingly we got along great... we chat all day in the office, we used to go to lunch together too and some nights we'd still be chatting in the apartment (we're chatting right now!!) I've lived with Kristi 2 months and she's already getting on my nerves! She's a cool person and I don't mind living with her but its the little things that bug the shit out of me. Yesterday she was throwing the trash out (which I do 80% of the time) and I guess she decided, "hmmm, they haven't touched those potatoes in 2 DAYS, I guess they must want me to throw it out." She told me she threw them out because she "thought they were old" - whatever! I don't know too much about vegetables cause I'm a carnivore but I know potatoes are good for a long time. No one uses our living room because there's no TV in there but sometimes Dante would put something on her coffee table just so he wouldn't misplace it... she moves everything from her crappy coffee table to the corner where we put most of Dante's stuff from his old apartment after he moved in. She doesn't just move it there, it looks like she just threw it. A couple weeks ago, she parked behind Dante (we have tandem parking) and she just left in the morning with her boyfriend and didn't pick up her cell phone. Good thing Dante and I both have cars! He's been dying to do the same thing to her but I told him not to push it cause she was nice enough to let him move in with me without creating a big fuss... he said it would be different if she had the apartment first and I moved in with her but thats not the case. If she moved out, he'd just pay the other half of the rent or we'd find someone else to move in. I don't think it would be too hard to find a new roommate. I already told Kristi before she moved in that Dante would be around a lot and that he had a key to the apartment. Oh! and another thing... the things she says bugs too - she was telling me she was looking in our fridge and Dante and I have all the white bread, Jell-O, soda, unhealthy "American" stuff... she and Johnny (her boyfriend) eat all the healthy stuff - wheat bread, brown rice, wine, etc... trying to sound like they were better than us. Damn girl, you guys are both twice our sizes! She's big (probably twice as big as me) and her boyfriend weighs exactly what Dante and I weigh, added up.
Ahhh... that feels better to get it off my chest.

Passions is so lame...
Kay: Daddy I'm so sorry.
Sam (Kay's Dad): Honey, what's wrong?
Kay: I'm pregnant...
Sam: Who did this to you??
Kay: I'll never tell you who got me pregnant!
Sam: I'm going to find out who got you pregnant and kill him...
Kay: No, Daddy! Don't hurt Miguel!
And I thought they were going to drag this out 2 weeks like they do with everything. What makes this scene better is the *outstanding* acting! Yet I still watch...

Back to work today... I felt bad because I didn't wake Dante up at 6:15a like I usually do - I'd usually press the snooze button and stay awake long enough to make sure he got out of bed - this morning, I just pressed the snooze alarm and went back to sleep. I didn't realize it until he got up at 6:30a himself to go take a shower (there was no hot water by the way!) and after Dante left for work, I went back to sleep. Then, at 8:10a, I looked at the alarm clock and shot out of bed thinking I was late and wondering why my alarm didn't go off. I threw on clothes and was ready to head out the door when I remembered - Oh yeah, I don't have to be at work until 9:00a. Amazing what two extra days off does to your mind. (not that I'm complaining!)
Some lucky guy in West Virginia won $314 million ($117 million after the lump sum thing and taxes) - is it even possible to spend that much money?? Dante is the king of spending money but even he said he wouldn't be able to spend that much money. At lunch, Steph and I were contemplating how to spend $100 million. Even if you buy a house and a nice nice car, that would only be $15 million max. I'd buy a couple businesses (so I still get income), probably buy or build a hotel in Las Vegas (I was just watching Oceans Eleven the other night), put aside money for a maid for my house, oooh! buy a sports team! ... It is tough to spend that much money!! I've been cheap for so long I don't know what I'd do with money. Heehee Steph can hire Jamie Oliver (The Naked Chef) to be her personal cook...

Christmas... and the highlight of my day is the Trading Spaces marathon! Just kidding... I had a 'fun-filled' day - lunch with the family, Las Vegas Bowl (thank god UCLA won, it would have been unforgiveable if they didn't), hanging out with Grace, Lakers Kings game (ugh). But back to the Trading Spaces marathon... I've watched five episodes since my dream the other night and Vern wasn't on any of the shows. Now that I think about it, I don't know why I had that date with Vern - Doug and Ty are more my type - goofballs - (if you don't consider age, but Vern is old too).
I was watching Office Space last night and this part had me cracking up!
Samir: No one in this country can ever pronounce my name right. It's not that hard. "Na-ee" and then "anajaad". Nayeenanajaad.
Michael: Yeah, well at least your name isn't Michael Bolton.
Samir: There's nothing wrong with that name.
Michael: There was nothing wrong with that name, until I was 12 years old and that no talent ass clown became famous and started winning Grammys.
Samir: Why don't you just go by Mike instead of Michael?
Michael: No way. Why should I change? He's the one who sucks.
The guy who plays Michael is the epitomy of a nerd so its so funny to hear him say that so passionately.

Maybe I should start taking Nyquil more often... Last night I had a dream that I was on a date with Vern Yip from Trading Spaces. It was an innocent, kinda boring date (we didn't even kiss!) but I can never look at Vern the same way again. At the end of the date, he asked me straight out if I liked him and he wanted to know where we stood (as a couple) and I was trying to figure out how to tell him I live with my sorta ex-boyfriend. Then I was thinking how cool it would be to date Vern - people would be jealous of me because Vern is so cool on the show... I felt so guilty when I woke up next to Dante even though I have no idea of where Dante and I stand relationship-wise.
I had a dream like this a couple months ago but it was James Hyde (Sam from Passions). Whats with these dreams with guys that much older than me? I'm sure those guys aren't THAT old, but I like to stick to the 4 years age range (+/-).

This totally sucks... the other companies on this floor had half day today and all my friends who are on AIM aren't online right now! My window overlooks Overland Avenue and I can see all the traffic going into Westside Pavilion... I need to START my Christmas shopping!! I have an advantage over everyone on the street right now - I can walk to the mall and not have to worry about parking, but no, I'm stuck at work. We gotta work Monday and Tuesday (I think) next week too. I'm so behind right now in everything - I've written 3 Christmas cards so far but I haven't mailed them yet and they're sitting at my apartment right now. I'll turn the others into Happy Holidays cards I guess. I've only bought one gift so far for Christmas (Mike - it was easy) and I'm supposed to have dinner with two friends tonight (Steve and Jennifer) to exchange our Christmas gifts. Let's see how much I can do in an hour after I get off work and before I head over to Steve's apartment. It would help if I had any idea what to get them too, I guess. (hmmm... Stan is out of the office right now... naw, I'll be good - with my luck, he'll drive by or Gus will look out his window and see me walking to the mall)
Check out this game - Get Santa Drunk!
Heehee - assistant is wearing the same shirt as Stan again for the second time this week! I told him to keep an extra shirt in his car...

There was nothing on TV last night and Dante was on the computer all night playing his computer racing game thing so I was just channel surfing... I turned to E! and they had "Wild On: Taiwan (Pleasure Island)" - so awesome. The funniest part was when they went to Hooters in Taipei and as an Asian, I can tell you Asians have no boobs... Dante saw, and he said, "Even you could work at Hooters in Taiwan!!" I'm not going to take that as an insult :).

I was listening to Jamie and Danny this morning on STAR 98.7 and they were talking about how Oprah is going to adopt this village and feed them every day for a year. "What are they going to do on day 375???" (Jamie figures that the food will last 10 days after Oprah stops feeding them) - and this brings on the age old question - Is it better to have loved (or whatever-ed) and lost or never to have loved (or whatever-ed) at all? It is so hard for people to go back to the way they were before a major change or experience in their life. I think thats why I put up with Dante so much - I was fine before I met him but now, if we just completely stopped talking or hanging out, I'd be really really lonely, even though I have my network of friends to help me through it. I guess it doesn't help that we're living together... Anyway, back to Jamie - she was wondering if Oprah would fly Wolfgang Puck down to whatever village she adopts to have him cook for them. That would be nice :).
MAJOR DRAMA at work today - Eileen was in a bad mood this morning and Stan just put her over the edge when he called her to talk about some client we lost. She's been wasting so much time taking care of that client that she got more pissed off - she has a valid point though - "Why don't we work on clients we do have instead of wasting our time on clients who left us??" So she left and I don't know what's going on right now. Stan buzzed me a little while after she left to ask me if I have her cell phone number and I know she has two cell phones but I gave him the "Stan line" - the number she gives to people she doesn't want to talk to and she won't pick up most of the time.
IT'S NOT EVEN 5:00 YET?!!?

Mike posted a message on our message board for the fantasy football league we're in - his team name is "The Tight Ends" - the ultimate name for a football team in my opinion - RETURN OF "THE TIGHT ENDS" We're back, and our ends are tighter than ever!
Lucyla8: ok - cute message though
bananame69: cute?
Lucyla8: funny
Lucyla8: i mean
bananame69: =)
bananame69: i just want to make people take notice
bananame69: that my team is tight
Lucyla8: and brag about your tight end
bananame69: =)
Lucyla8: which i dont want to know anything about
bananame69: tighter than ever
Lucyla8: eww
What is it with butts all of the sudden? Last night Dante and I were comparing butt sizes again in the bathroom mirror (he says I have no ass) and he scrunched up his boxers so he could see what his butt would look like if he was a woman in tight pants - he has a female ass! I don't even want to get started on those women with big butts wearing the tight tight pants where you can see their panty lines or thong lines... EEWWWW!
There was a part in Barbershop where Ricky (Michael Ealy!) talks about the difference between a WOMAN with a BIG ASS (J. Lo) and a BIG ASS WOMAN (Mother Love) - it was hilarious... I gotta wait til it comes out on DVD Jan 1st to refresh my memory though.

Stupid old bitch at work just went off on me for something I didn't even do... it was my assistant again (guys do NOT pay attention to detail) and I'm sick of this. That bitch gets berated so much by the big boss Gus that she feels the need to do it to other people too I guess... well, I hope Gus yells at her more now - if I could put a curse on her, I'd do it :). I don't even work for her! Stan just asks me to give her these papers for tax projections and duh, I don't have the experience the old people here do so how the hell should I know? "You need to stop using the excuse that you don't know what you're doing cause they're paying you to know the stuff." They're not paying me enough bitch. I'm so glad Eileen was a witness to this cause I've been telling her how much I hate Violet and now she knows why. Stupid assistant put the wrong date on the check to the FTB and all it takes is a simple phone call but stupid bitch wanted to take that out on someone.

I was watching the news this morning and I heard that McDonald's to Post First-Ever Loss... I guess it might be because Dante and I haven't gone there as much this 'quarter' (October 1st - December 31st) since he wants Del Taco every freakin day :). We've actually been saving money lately because we've been making hamburgers on the George Foreman Grill (greatest gadget ever!) whenever we're hungry. So if we're to blame for the economy (McDonald's loss caused the stock market to drop today)... sorry Prez Bush.
I watched the first 2 parts of VH1's "I love the 80s" sort-of miniseries yesterday and it was awesome... so many memories. Back to the Future triology out on DVD today!! That was my absolute favorite movie as a kid - I wanted a DeLorean so bad! And Michael J. Fox was my dream guy.
I'm getting used to this living with Dante thing... but I gotta say, boys are such babies when they're sick. "Ba---by... I'm sick... Can you run me a bath? And make me some tea?" in that 'I'm so weak' voice...
Heehee - my client just called me to find out our holiday schedule at this office. I told him we have the 25th and the 1st off and we might have the 24th off (I assuming we do because our annual Christmas lunch is on the 23rd but we haven't gotten a memo about the 24th yet) and he said, "So Scrooge is going to have you guys working during the holidays huh?" hell yeah. :( I wish I did work for Jay full time - he's giving his staff (and me, part-time) 2 weeks off for the holidays.

Eileen just sent me this e-mail:

So true...
And I just sent this to her: (found it on someone's journal)

I set a new record for myself - it took me 4 minutes to get to work this morning!
I'm so happy my friends know me so well... Dante and I were just watching the Laker game last night and he was sitting in front of my computer when Mike messaged me... Dante wanted to play with him and pretend to be me but I told him, "You can try that with other people, but Mike, Steph and Steve know me so well you shouldn't even bother." He still wanted to try and less than two minutes into the conversation he starts laughing: Mike typed in, "man, put lucy on the computer" He was impressed and he was just saying, "That's a friend for you..." I got on the computer and Mike knew it was me... Dante had me ask Mike when he knew it wasn't me, what gave it away. Then Dante tried to be smart and get back on the computer a little later. I left to go pick up Monica to go to Target and Dante called my cell - "He wrote this, what do I write now? ... He's not responding! Maybe he's onto us." I was on the phone trying to help him and then I just told him to talk about the Broncos or something but call them "sorry ass Broncos" cause thats what I would say... didn't work. Dante starts laughing and he said Mike wrote, "Whats going on over there?"
I also messaged Monica "I'm coming over right now" before I left so Monica writes back "Ok, I'll be outside in 7 minutes" and Dante wrote "No, don't leave yet, I'm talking to Steve right now"... Monica chats with Dante a little bit and when I pick her up and I'm on the phone with Dante discussing the Mike situation, she said she thought something was weird. Dante also tried to pretend to be me a couple weeks ago with Steph but she knew it was him the whole time and I knew she would know it wasn't me.
Yeah, we get bored at the apartment sometimes... there's only so many movies you can watch tons of times every time it comes on cable.

Aaargh!! Had the most unproductive lunch imaginable today... I would've been better off going back to my apartment to watch soaps like I usually do. Instead, I drove all the way out to Pasadena (25 miles each way!) to pay a ticket for Dante so he can get an abstract and get his license back, looked for parking for 5 minutes, took 10 minutes to get inside, waited in line for 30 minutes even though there were only 3 people ahead of me when I got there... all just to have the lady tell me I couldn't pay the ticket because its Dante's ticket and he has to sign this notice for traffic school and "it's a legal document so you can go to jail if you forge the signature" and that there was no way I could get around that - first of all, yeah right I'd forge a signature there at the window in front of a court employee - COMMON SENSE! she didn't have to tell me that - and secondly, I worked for a criminal defense attorney for 3 years off and on and she would have me sign her court pleadings all the time when she wasn't in the office... I'd just sign her name, slash, my initials... I've even signed for the prosecution (with their permission of course). I called Denise (Donald Re's secretary, she has decades of legal experience) after I left the Pasadena court just because it was bugging me so much and she told me there was a way for me to have paid that ticket and gotten the abstract if I had his permission... oh well. Then I had to deal with the usual sucky drivers on the way back and I stopped by McDonalds to get some of those $1 chicken nuggets but there were so many cars lined up at the drive-thru I just decided it wasn't worth it and came back to the office.
Clooney is on Leno right now, just being his usual charming self... I would do anything for that man... :)
I went to my part-time job tonight and Jay wasn't there but one of his other assistants was and the two of us just started talking... Veree is so cool! We were just exchanging stories on boyfriends, players, life experiences, etc... she says I should definitely date older men and that Dante is way too young - never date a younger guy who looks good and knows he looks good... you'll get hurt. We've had so many of the same experiences and we had so much fun talking it was a wonder we got any work done. I've met a new friend! After college, you pretty much have your group of friends set because you don't get opportunities to meet people and just make friends after that. The only 2 close friends I've met after college are Eileen and now Veree - both friends from work. Felita is also a friend but we just don't have that much in common.
Damn, Juliana Margulis has gotta be the luckiest actress ever... to play Clooney's girlfriend for so many years on ER...

UCLA Fires Football Coach Bob Toledo... oh well. I like Coach Toledo because I still remember all the good times we went through in football when I was in college - we won 20 straight games and was on the road to the national championship in football (we've never won it before in football) until one stupid call by a referee in the Miami game (it wasn't a fumble! his knee was down!), we won 8 straight against U$C and the team was fun to watch. I feel bad for UCLA coaches in general - you lose a game and the alumni is calling for your head. Coach Lavin has it the toughest - no one can compare to John Wooden - 11 championships in 12 years, etc... personally, I like Coach Lavin - all the girls at UCLA like him because he's cute but he's also the nicest person and the greatest recruiter. I talked to him once after a game and he asked which high school I went to, I said, "Villa Park" and he knew the players that came out of my little high school - Eric Chenowith, Isaiah Cavaco, etc... it took him a second to remember the coach's name but it impressed me because I forgot his name and I went to that high school for 4 years.
This was a good weekend overall, except for us losing to Washington State in football... unless you look on the bright side and realize our loss prevented U$C from making the Rose Bowl... UCLA basketball won, Lakers won (miracle comeback last Friday - we were down by 27 at the end of the third quarter and won by 2, then we beat Utah - hate the Jazz), Raiders kicked ass and are now in first place in the division...
Its funny the changes you make in your life when you live with someone. And the things you learn about a person... Dante and I have been together on/off since July 4, 2001 and I thought I knew him well because we have spent a lot of time together this past year (after I moved out of the house and into my apartment) but living together makes things a lot different. Since he moved in and made himself comfortable, he's become more of a slob and I have become more of a neat freak. I am always picking up clothes off the floor and throwing trash away, straightening up the messes on my desk. I need to buy a napkin holder for my desk because we eat in my room and when he doesn't see napkins lying around, he'll use the carpet! :)

Maybe living with Dante isn't as great as I thought it would be... I love coming home to him every night and just kicking it with him but there are just times you need a little personal space. I wish Kristi and I had a TV in the living room so I'd have some other room to be in. Everything I have personally is in my room - TV, VCR, DVD, computer, radio, etc. Last night he had the song "Braid my Hair" by Mario on repeat from the time I got home from Steph's place at 9:30p to past midnight. He was either on the phone, downloading songs or chatting online that whole time and singing "braid my hair, why don't you braid my hair"... I wanted to tell him "dammit - learn another line! and besides, you don't have any hair to braid!!" I was on the bed flipping through the People Magazine I "borrowed" from the office (which I forgot to bring back this morning - hope they don't notice until after lunch, when I can go home and bring it back) and even pictures of the sexiest men alive couldn't keep me from getting irritated.

We had the TV on the hip hop/rap music channel this morning and a song from the Barbershop soundtrack came on... just jogged my memory on how cute Ricky from the movie is... Michael Ealy. Natural blue eyes!! heehee Steph has been listening to me talk all day about how cute this guy is. He looks a little like Ray Young and I'm not sure if I'm going back to "that type" now... the thuggish type, instead of the pretty boys but he's also a pretty boy... kinda like Rick Fox - he's a thuggish type pretty boy... I'm confusing myself now so I'll just say this: they're hot, no matter what. Michael Ealy is also in Bad Company (Jenny and I both liked it but the movie flopped in the theaters) so now I have to go back and watch it again to look for him. He has a part in the Soul Food series on Showtime and he said one of the actors (who just happens to be Jay's client - I just worked on his account yesterday) really helped him out when he was getting started. I have a connection to him!! Jay should totally get him as a client.

I was watching Making the Band II (with P. Diddy) this weekend and it just occurred to me how much I admire the people on the show. They have a dream and they do anything they can to achieve it. Maybe I feel this way because I'm frustrated that Dante says he wants to be an actor and I've given him at least 2 big opportunities to personally meet Eileen's clients - a director (at his Christmas party) and a producer (on location for her show) who could actually give him a one in a million chance in show business (who you know is a big part of Hollywood) and he has flaked out of both events. I can't even be mad at him for that because who am I to talk? Back in college, everyone was so motivated to succeed... how did I get stuck where I am now? My dreams just went down the tubes. Don't get me wrong, I love working in the entertainment business but I don't even know what I want to do with my life anymore. I'm going to be a business manager on the path I'm going right now and I do like it but is this what I want to do for the rest of my life? I miss school and I do want to go back, either to law school or business school, but the hard part is to take the first step.
