I feel good. Sorry

I tried to play Fallout 4 after a day of not touching it: the game continues to short out the computer every 15 to 20 minutes, making it impossible to enjoy.  I will wait until the patches are included.  On a positive note, I decided to try playing Mafia II again and it appears that it's been patched, because now it's playing well.  Steam was not knocking out my computer for a full hour and a half!...then it froze.  I guess I will be playing Mafia 2 for now, hoping that Fallout will be patched soon.
My mother prepared Brussel sprouts dish and vegetable soup today.  After coming home, I went to see Alice and spent 80 bucks on acupuncture session.  It was worth it.  I decided not to eat the salad at my parents' apartment - don't know why, don't feel like eating any salads lately.  However, I will have to eat it tomorrow at grandma's apartment.  Today is November 28, 2010.  I sent my rent payment, my utility bill check and a letter to an old acquittance from Rochester earlier today.  It is 1:35am and I still don't feel like sleeping.   I noticed that I no longer expect much from life.  Not that I expected much in the past years, but now it seems to be something natural to my being.  That feels ... good.

useless information

Just came back from work: stopped by Wendy's Plate, a "uniquely vegetarian" restaurant with unbelievably tasty, but pricey food.  I bought a Greek wrap w/out feta cheese, mushroom barley soup and home made potato fries.
I installed 1T disk, put windows on it, works great, however, another drive is not loading for some reason and I had to repair XP PRO on previous drive.  Doesn't really matter, how many drives do I work with?  I'll do it later.  Tomorrow I will visit my parents to celebrate The Turkey Massacre Day.   I won't eat the victim, instead, my mother is promising to prepare cauliflower w/bread crumbs, vegetable soup and mashed potatoes.  I got them expensive chocolates (Rocher, Godiva, Lindt) and Max will get 4 gourmet Cesar food packages.

I got nothing to say to nobody

Can't sleep...just drank an espresso...Thursday is Thanksgiving, I will be off work.  Finished General Tso's tofu: the fortune cookie said "In order to discover who you are, first learn who everybody else is.  You're what is left."  It seems to be so, I guess I am what is left.

what if it's all one Adam?

Well, the meteors will peak tonight, but I am already peaking on extra food in my stomach: just came back from King's Buffet on 86th Street.  It turns out on Wednesdays All-you-can-eat menu costs cheaper.  I am still filled with food and have to flush it with espresso.  The fortune cookie given to me on exit reads:
"To be eighty years young is more cheerful and hopeful than forty years old".  I don't know what it means...is that a "bad" fortune or...what? I don't grow any younger... Is that a warning of hardships to come?

meah

I thought about my life so far and I am somewhat satisfied with it.  I don't think I could change much and doubtfully it could have been any better than it was.  I could even say it was better than I could expect looking at things retroactively.  It was nice and it is still nice.  I am grateful for every experience and hope that the rest of my life will not involve any more stresses.  Not more than I have now.  As for the search of intelligent life on Earth, it is still an issue that I cannot report any progress on yet.  But the search will continue.

Two days before Leonids

Busy day at work, didn't do much notes though.
After work I went to Telco while waiting for my order to get warm in N&D pizzeria - three vegan pizza slices (basil, tomato sauce, garlic on bread w/out cheese) and an order of garlic nuts - I bought three shirts which came with free ties, all for under 30 dollars.  Now I finished pizza, left the garlic nuts for tomorrow, drinking Manhattan Special Espresso Coffee Soda (diet), and finishing yesterday's package of hazelnuts.
Yesterday I did not play Fallout4: got tired of computer turning off so much.  Hoping they will fix these issues soon.

Overdue Vulcan emotional outburst is cancelled for this year.

As I was going home from the busy day at work, I was wondering whether there will be Leonids Meteor Shower this November.  I had some of those fancy Indian pickles and two sandwiches with tomatoes and mushroom salad from the Russian store.  Then I had a cup of espresso, with just two sugar cubes.  Today is November 08, 2010.  The last time I was sure I will be alive on that date was November 8, 1998.  Peoples were weird today, especially closer to 5pm.  Coworker complimented my new shoes, so I gave her directions to Telco where she can get those for 15 dollars.  Every time I eat now, my stomach's bulging up...it goes down only an hour or so later...I wonder if it's some sort of malfunction.  Installed a free antivirus software: the fancy one expired...recession - don't feel like paying for something I can get free - we'll see if it was a wise idea later.  I'm smoking Hilton Gold - more carbon monoxide - I like it better than other brands available now.  Maybe carbon monoxide IS a poison to the system - maybe you feel like your system is shutting down and you are closer to death...that excites...you start fighting subconsciously...gives more energy...probably people satisfied with their life do not smoke.  None of the things mentioned in this post matter.

Ode to Good Sleep

Busy day at work: ate lunch two hours later than usual, lots of stuff to do on Monday.  After work I felt a need to relax and I went to my acupuncturist from Jian Ning Acupuncture on Avenue U, Alice.  She is a sort of miracle worker: if she would do advertising, she would probably get much more business: pains, blood pressure, excess weight, all sorts of ailments without medication or doctor - at affordable price - boom - and it's fixed.  I lost 20 lb in a month without exercise, without changing my eating habits.  Now I came in, said I have stress from not sleeping well for a while - after I came back from her, I went to bed and slept from 7pm to 4am, which makes it my personal record of 9 hours!

Chatty mood tonight

Today I found out I have a salary increase.  That was a good news, as it makes me feel more secure about the job.  I received Hilton Gold cigarettes and they are much better than the ones I was smoking before.  It's getting colder now and I need to heat apartment with the stove.  For some reason, it's on for about 2-3 hours now and it is still somewhat cold...I must have not checked all the holes next to window...or maybe I'm just getting old'n'cold.  I continue playing Fallout New Vegas.  Great game, hopefully, patches will come out soon.  I'm managing my fatigue well: it appears once all blood was sucked out, the remains are not overly "juiced", which implies that blood is the oldest known antibacterial agent, like penicillin and that suckers are prone to infections.  That really blows the "cool" image of lunatics, I guess, for me.  The food in the cafeteria wasn't too great today...I am thinking to order out this week to celebrate my increase in salary.  It's nice, extra 30 bucks every week.  So far life's been grand...some dude came up to me and he just got here from another state, hungry, no money, from Ryker's Island.  I gave him some, hopefully, he won't stake my apartment, because I am not that rich.  Or good-natured.  That could have been me.  I'm lucky to have what I have.  I guess I don't like seeing people hungry...Food really makes anyone OK.  You can be poor, without stable housing, but if you have food - life's ok.  Unless you have severe mental illnesses.  Than, I guess, it's never ok.  Although, it's probably also something you can get used to...we all have some mental issues, most just able to deal with them in civilized manner.  People...are like children...egotistic, self-serving, scared of pain yet running forth without a caution...very young they are...don't appear to be living more than they do...  We probably all feel like children to God...even the oldest...maybe that's the reason He doesn't kill us all yet... although everyone pretty much deserves it...maybe just don't like the bad karma... or maybe it's like with Noah's flood - once done, felt bad, said won't do it again...maybe the same with all religions...once killed his kids, decided not to do it again...so He lets us kill each other on our own...to have clean conscience...Nobody wants to be bothered, after all.  Life is great and those who have it want to keep it that way.  They choosing politicians again...I saw some posts: peoples are saying funny things, like voting for cartoon characters and their pets...  I guess computer gaming industry is not the only aspect of life that's experiencing crisis...  Usually peoples choose the individuals they would like to fuck or wouldn't mind being fucked by...now it's something different...weird...don't really care where it is going, going to shower and then bed.
