This place could use some Guinness

I will be residing with my sister at her condo downtown, otherwise known as KampKrusty - the new wireless router (a shitty DLink WBR-1310 - I can't believe the signal is that weak and it's only across the hallway) shares the same SSID, hidden of course.

I'm doing fine, thanks for asking. I went back to work today. Now I remember why I hated being there - it's so boring. And now they locked out the internet on me. Bastiches! So I'm bringing books to read. Currently I am reading When Things Fall Apart. It's a Buddist's viewpoint on how to cope with disorder and chaos. So far, it's been an interesting read. Instead of running away from fear, I should turn around and look at what I am running from, and try to understand it.

I've come to accept that I'm a narcissist. A fatal flaw I'm sure. When I got my new cell phone, I originally got a cheapo Nokia 6103. But after 2 days with it, my ego got the better of me and returned it for a Motorola RAZR V3i. Not the regular RAZR, but the spanky new one with iTunes and 512MB of memory. I'm so bad. The Nokia was a perfectly good phone. In fact, the interface is far better than the Motorla's. While I may preach function over form, I really want both. And I want form over function. Hypocrite.

I'm also thinking about a new car to go with the new single life. When I get depressed, I like to go shopping, apparently. Would explain the eBay crap I bought at work. Found out the VW GTI comes in 4 doors now (never did care for the Jetta). A MazdaSpeed 3 is coming out this "summer". There's always the Subaru Impreza WRX Sport Wagon, but it's an old design - a new Impreza based on a shorten Legacy should be coming out in a couple of years. The dark horse is the Saab 9-3 SportCombi. The financing guy was throwing incentives at me left and right to try to get me to commit to one. Or maybe I'm just dreaming - because cars usually are a pipedream for me...

boring
