Monday - came home from work early to bring Jo to her chiropractor in Campbell. Jo ran into Lorraine, and I was asleep in the car. Went to Santana Row, and ate at a cafe. Went to AMC Mercado and shopped at TJ Maxx and more. What does the "and more" stand for? More crap. Actually I bought a birthday gift for Johnny, even though we forgot to get one for Verna. Also bought a Berkeley jersey for myself and a nice wringer t-shirt. Jo got a silver Spurs jersey. Got a milkshake at Taxi's, listened to Jo's favorite song, "God only knows", and prayed at Our Lady of the Rosary in Santa Clara. Didn't go to church this Sunday, so it was good that we went. Headed to Los Altos for Jo's PAMF appointment. Met with Dr. Shin, who was very compassionate and accomodating. Will be doing IUI this month or next. Went home and slept in the evening.
Tuesday - Brought Belly to Ma's house, Jo joined us, and we ate lunch since I had to pick up Ma from Kaiser anyways. Ma's last day of work is tomorrow. Played Scrabble and beat Jo. Watched replay of Portugal and England in the Euro 2004 quarterfinals. They replayed the entire match up until the extra period and the penalty kicks; they just highlighted those for some friggin' reason. What a croc! Got ready for work and the residential picnic tomorrow
Reading - The Notebook. It sucks.
Watching - Mystic River and Step into Liquid.
Doing - send CV and covers to jobs in Hotmail
On tap tomorrow - Residential picnic at Chabot from 10-3. Woohoo! I get paid! Sleep. France v. Greece replay at 5pm. Hopefully, Waste Management will have already picked up my bulky waste by the time I get home.
Thursday - hike w/ Belle at Ohlone. Watch Fahrenheit 9/11, Spidey 2 in the afternoon.
Friday - Give dogs a bath. Sleep. Work aat night.
Came home from work this morning at 10a, cleaned the kitchen a bit, played soccer w/ Belly and ball w/ Jingo. Read the paper on the porch. Damn Waste Management wstill hasn't picked up my bulky waste. Gotta be embarassing to the neighbors. Fuck 'em. Cooked brunch for Jo and I, watched the first half of the first inning of the A's Giants game, and knocked off for the next 4 hours. Woke up to find the A's lost, so I'm glad I didn't stay up. Went to dinner at Daimo's w/ Ron, Jimmy, and my babe. Watched Coupling at home, and it still can't hold a candle to when Richard Coyle (Jeff) as on. It will probably be cancelled after the fifth seried (as they like to call seasons in Jolly olde England). Walked to Walgreens w/ Belly and Jo. Jo got some OPK's and magazines. Work tonight; gotta leave early tomorrow morning to go to Jo's appointment.
Had a great interview yesterday. They will have me back two weeks form now to do a teaching lesson to a group of 30 5-7year olds. I wonder what I should do. The job pays shitty, but the organization is great. Also waiting for word from EBRPD, and have to send out cover letters and resumes to a bunch of different places this weekend.
Watched the Notebook with Jo, and cried like a little bitch. Couldn't sneak in to Fahrenheit 9/11 because some chick was guarding the door. Instead we had dinner at Rubio's.
Worked with Ron last night. I guess Laura and management hasn't done anything yet. I wonder what reprimand they will receive. I guess they still have to figure out the cope of te operation; ie. how many overnights are doing it, and how often. Also found out that the annual party will be in mid-July. I wouldn't mind going, but I would have to take the night off. If I work that night, Jo and I would be rushed for time. Then again, the party starts at 6:30pm and I have to work at 10pm. That's a good 2 hours. But no drinking. As if I could anyway; gotta get my swimmers ready to rock n' roll!
Jo gave me a very special gift this morning. Man, I love her. We went to AA China buffet for John's b-day. I ate a ton of oysters. It's an aphrodisiac. I'll probably jump Joanne's bones tonight. Currently hanging out at John and Verna's house, just chilling. Work tonight at 10pm. Make sure to do upper body work out in the early morning. And watch mystic river and step into liquid.
Motherfucker, my right leg felt like it had rickets this morning. It took a good shake before I had any feeling in it. Took out my bulky waste trash last night; probably woke up a bunch of neighbors. Fuck 'em. Went to Jo's second chiropractic appt. today. Jo's spine is pretty jacked up. She got adjusted, and I hope it will help. We've got to go with my chiropractor because it's insured, and it's not all the way in timbuj2 (Campbell). Man, I hate that town. A bunch of pretentious shitheads with Lexuses and Porsches.
Been in a shit mood all week. Jo's been getting the brunt of it. I don't know what I'd do without her love and support. Got Coupling season 3 from AC. To my surprise, I had already watched 3/4 of it! But the missing episodes were funny as hell, and filled in the gaps. Really sad the Richard Coyle (aka Jeff) left the show in season 4. He was the backbone of that show. I've already watched 3 episodes of the 4th season, and it's bunk compared to the first three seasons. I think I'll ask AC to burn the first two seasons, because I could literally watch it over and over again.
Gonna gather up a bunch of CD's and sell it back to Rasputin's. And probably buy a bunch of DVD's and CD's in exchange. Then watch Dodgeball with Alvin, Ron, and Jo. And then dinner at Yume in Alameda.
Went on a hike with Gilbey at Redwood. Tried a new trail and passed by a couple of bikers and a guy on a horse. Gilbey behaved well, yet I still can't trust him to be off leash. The flexi-leash is the next best thing. Went about a mile to a mile and a half with at least a 700 ft. elevation change. Dropped off my application and supplemental statement at EBRPD. Also have my interview with savethebay on Friday. Gotta bone up on their website, EE techniques, and terminology. Also gotta look for my letter of recommendations and put together a reference list.
On tap tonight:
get together bulky waste for pickup tomorrow morning
EE research
start paperwork organization
apply for all jobs on my email
Tomorrow:
Jo's chiropractic appt. tomorrow morning
maybe bring Belly to Coyote for a walk
weed backyard
touch up lawn and check sprinklers
dinner w/ Alvin and friends at night
Working on getting applications, resumes, and cover letters out on a bunch of jobs. Checking craigslist almost daily. Will organize all my paperwork and bills in the garage. Plan to paint the entire downstairs this week and the next. Just got my registration sticker; gotta put it on the truck.

wash cars and deep clean interior
vacuum house, and carpet clean including stairs, baseboards
