2 weeks ago my laptop gave me the BSOD ( Blue screen of death)
Being literally veined ( yes veined) to my PC, I was like a drug addict on rehab with withdrawal symptoms.
I realized how much I was too dependent on the Internet. Not the PC itself but the Internet.
I have been working here in California on my new job for nearly a month now.
Surprisingly there are a LOT of Filipino's here (Tagalog speaking too) so I felt relieved on having a small chika group during lunch.
The bad news is I work CLOSELY with the high level management.
The US Co prorate culture is a wee bit more cutthroat and unforgiving than the US one. California having the most meticulous of Office laws and compliance. Even something you say, mispelled or used a wrong adjective when telling a story can be grounds for Discrimination, sexual harassment and many other violations.
I found it very difficult to fit in because everyday I was walking on eggshells with the CFO, CEO and my own supervisor. I love my job by I can say the head cutting in my position is very certain with no mercy nor warning.
This weekend, I came to finally get some R and R after a rough week and anticipating a new one.
Its NFL Football season kick off.
On the street where I live the horns are honking as the local NFL team made a touchdown against the Panters.
I became totally a guy, I had a grill fired up, bought some coal, hamburger patties, mustard, lemon, tomatoes.
I spent nearly 50$, and that buying on a super cheap store.
I was busy cooking for my male friends who came buy. I knew them for a long time now. I was wearing a Tshirt and undies I wasnt ashamed since they have seen me naked and vice versa since we even began to walk. I was one of the boys, sorta. I was strutting outside just a few minutes ago with what Im wearing...Why, its a 70 degree weather, Id walk naked if it was legal or morally decent to do so. I was being baked either in my room, in my car or anywhere. Even at night its still FRAWKIN HOT!!!
And Unlike Philippine weather that is nearly 80 degrees hotter at least its like Hot Humid, not like here Desert HOT HOT
I finally got my weight down from 135-125lbs due to cardio and walking 2 miles every other day. Last Dec I was a 140. But I have to throw my Cardio out for a while to do some barbecuing.
Having my own homemade marinade of Worcestershire sauce, with garlic salt, pepper, soy sauce and lil ketsup, I slabbed it on the patties and did my magic on the grill.
It was good to finally get disconnected with the virtual world and enjoy the outdoors
YUMMMY.
Its still hot so Im chilling here now in my room.
Ohh yeah I miss RO and RB, terribly
I finally Got my PC back now, reformatted, erased of my files but Im not fretting. Its all good like new fresh start.
