not enough blogs to read in a day



i wish that everyone blogged. every time i see a post, i feel like it's a treat of some sort. it could just be about anything. i always enjoy having something to read. but it has to be from someone i know. i don't think i have ever read an anonymous blog....i have tried readding a post here and there, but if i don't know the person, i couldn't care less. unfortunately, i only know 4 other people that blog on a semi weekly basis. and they post one post a week if i'm lucky. for those who don't blog at all, give it a shot. instead of having a personal web page that you update every couple of years, have a page you update regularly. with blogger, it's just, click, type, and click. and you're done. you get to share things like your new/old passions in life, neat information/link you discover, or just the little things that people all too often miss hearing about. it will help your friends understand you better. but most importantly, it'll help you understand yourself better. remember doogie howser? yep, he was on to something.



anyway, today at the gym, i realized how ugly my gym clothes are. everyone is basically wearing stuff to expose their biceps, etc.....if it is a tshirt, the sleeve (or half sleeve) is not much of a sleeve at all. and the shirts are usually pretty tight. i see some people with pretty big biceps, and i hope that one day my biceps will be that big. and then i look at my arms and roll up my sleeve and realize, wait, my biceps are bigger than that guy. haha. it's just my shirt hiding the goods! so anyway, in a few months after i stop bulking up and start cutting up, i'll get rid of the ugly farmer's tan. then, i'll get new gym clothes that will expose my biceps, triceps, shoulders, etc. since i spend a good amount of time hanging out there, i might as well dress up for the occasion.



you might have noticed that "Michael Live" is totally gone. good riddance. with my renewed interest in programming i have written my first program in a long time to bring you "random pics". it's a program that runs on my web server that is serving up the random pictures. unfortunately, with my current implementation, there is no way to get around your browser caching images. i doubt people will be refreshing the page every 5 seconds just for the pictures so it shouldn't be a problem. but every 5 seconds, the image should change. to see this happen, you need to do a force refresh by hitting ctrl+F5 or holding ctrl then clicking on refresh.



as for the normal stuff. i have been battling a meandering cold for the last week. i might have to given it to nguyen and possibly the wellness director, terry, at rimac. or that's what she jokingly told me today as she was walking by. i went hung out with diem and eric yesterday. we went to ono sushi in hillcrest. that place was one of the coolest places i have been for sushi. very lively atmosphere. unfortunately they gave us a bad table (too small for 3). the sushi was fresh, and unlike what i read on signonsandiego, the pieces weren't small. for desert, we all split a ice cream short bread cake that was deep fried with tempura batter. man, that made the endorphins or something in my brain just jolly with blissful chemicals circulating my brain. or it could have just been the big insulin spike that i haven't felt in a looong time. after sushi, we went to tapioca express for some boba. and there we solved eachother's riddles.



here were the riddles:

-the rat poison and the sandwich

-the spouse that ate the albatross.

-3 dead men in the cabin.

-the guy hanging an empty room with nothing but a wet floor underneath.

-and the murderous sister who has just come back from a relative's funeral



solving riddles was so fun. defnitely have to do that more often. i'll try to find some good riddles online.
