JOURNAL: rys

  • My first entry... 2001-10-30 11:37:53 At work, drinking coffee, pondering going through this big stack or prior art references. Which I probably won't for once in my four months that I've started here, I'm already up two cases for the bi-week, and I might get two counts for one of them. And I know none of you know or really care about what I'm talking about, but my job is based on production, and I have to get a certain amount of work done every two weeks. For every case I examine, it's one count, and right now I average two counts per bi-week, if I can get that up to three or four before mid-january, I'll get a nice promotion.

    Anyway, enough about work, why am I talking about work, work is boring right?

    What's new in RYS's life.

    Working on videos... kinda...
    Playing basketball... always...
    Dating... Given...
    Sleeping... as much as possible...
    Partying... does a bear shit in the woods?

    So for working on videos, just gathering ideas, been listening to some classical lately for editing my cousin's wedding together, that should come out well, and in the mean time I'm thinking AMVs on the side with some of the songs.

    Basketball, I love playing tuesday nights, the old guys I play with really have an understanding of the mechanics of the sport, but on Thursday nights I play with some of my old co-workers, and I play like a center, and when I post up, they would rather try this impossible air-jordan wanna-be lay-up that obviously all of us could never do, or try this jason williams like pass that they try when they can't even see one person to the side of them because they are triple covered! So it's frustrating because when they draw the defense away from me, I'm wide open, right under the rim, it's sad to watch, but hey, it burns the calories.

    Oooooo dating, I'm not going there, I don't know you guys that well. :)

    Sleeping, christ I've gotten in the worst habit of going into work late, but you know what, my production has increased because of it, and my boss is down with it, so it's all good. Rather get in early though, the day goes by faster, and I get out early enough to actually do stuff at night.

    Partying! Damn, last weekend was crazy. I went out Friday night and met some friends for dinner, then went out to a cafe and ended up drinking there until 2am. The bartender was so cute and she mixed the best long island iced tea I've had to date, it was also the strongest, so after three of those, I was quite socialable. :) So I get home at 2am, and my buddy Ben is online and says they are chilling at his place, so I go over there at 2:30am and hang out until 4am, I didn't even drive home I was so tired I just slept on his couch. So Saturday I've gotta come up with a costume and mix this punch for a party that night. I woke up so late I pretty much threw in the towel with watching the Tech game with my friends, because I didn't have time, which worked out in the end because we got spanked. So I go home for an hour, shower, shave and grab my stuff and head down to Party City to try and find a costume. I wanted to be Snoopy, but they didn't have it, so I settled for being a nun (did I mention when I was 18 I almost joined the sisterhood?). So I get my costume, go to the grocery store, get everything I need for punch (which was a success!) and had the party, which was okay, we played some cool board games that night and the punch was good, but a little weak. So I go home at 3am that night, get home to find Joe on the couch waiting up for me like my mother did back in high school, but my mother wasn't as bad as Joe for the first things out of his mouth were "Where the fuck have you been?", I told him I should of called, but it didn't matter at that point, I was grounded, no internet for a week, sigh, good thing I have a connection at work. But, to reward Joe for being the good mother that he is, I took him to the Redskins game with Brent, Ben and myself, because my dad dropped out on me, which pissed me off because it was his birthday that day and that was his present! O'well his lose, we were right behind the Giants bench, it rocked fourth row, 50 yard line, can't beat that. Plus the Redskins finally won, so it was a great day all around. Sunday night, went home and chilled (finally).

    So there we go, all done, my first journal entry, pretty impressive, I didn't think I'd write this much, just kinda got into a groove and went with it.

    Well, I think I'll go read through these references now... Wheeee!
