Googlle


I was in Mexico when Google turned 11. I only had internet access roughly 3 times I was there. The one time I did need to use Google.com it transfered me to google.com.mx and it said "Googlle."


I chuckled and said to my companions "Oh, in Mexico they call it 'Goog-yay' how cute." Clearly I was wrong.

Trainer

It's been forever and a day since I've posted huh? Whatever.

Equinox gives all new members a free Trainer evaluation and session (to suck you into it). I had this nice guy whose fiance is a UCLA grad '07 and also worked at Google (I have no idea who she is). We sort of talked about how awesome LA is and then this happened:

Trainer: So what are your goals?
Me: uhm... strength building?
Trainer: What for?
Me: ... to look good by summer...?
Trainer: Ha, are you from around here? You have an LA vibe.

My assumption is that if I had a "Bay Area vibe" I would be:
  1. Not superficial (wrong).
  2. Superficial but crafty. "I'm doing this for my health. Better yet, it saves the planet one step at a time instead of using my Prius." (right).

lifecasting my orthodontist

Through my vapid internet life experience I have learned that mostly everyone wants to over share in one way or another (if you didn't, I wouldn't have be able to use Google to find out how slutty you are.  Seriously, try turning off SafeSearch and do a search "[your name] is a slut."  See?  The overseer even thinks so).   Point of the story is that my inner fame whore is very tempted to lifecast on justin.tv, but my more practical (or sober) side tells me that it is not such a good idea because

  1. I'm too pretty, oh gosh obvs this is too much potential for everyone to handle.
  2. Maybe I'll become a politician (ha)(but not so much ha because I really do want to change Cupertino)(DARN that 'walking bridge' to the middle of nowhere? was that necessary Cupertino? The answer is NO).
  3. I could be boring, but I AM NOT.
  4. I have ugly times (oh please god, do not show me ugly times again, wasn't that like years 9 to 19.  That's because I just went to see the ortho today and commemorated my 14th year seeing them of which went like this: retainers, braces, headgear, and 3 THREE FRONT teeth pulled out).
  5. This will really cement the fact that my life is a routine of
  • going to work
  • arguing with //that one//
  • and saying expressions in the real world as if I'm chatting to them "oh, sigh, I am tired" and "oh, grumble, that was my stomach" and "Snore, yeah omg that she is so preggers."

Worst Day Evarz

I'm retrodating my post here because I shall need to remember the horrid day that my dentist ditched me without enough anesthetics for my deep cleaning.

Why today was awful:
  1. The dentist was over 30 minutes late for my deep cleaning when I had to go to another doctor afterward (which I was late to)
  2. The dentist pulled a "switch-a-roo" and gave me their new dentist who only speaks English and Viet, whereas the dental assistants only spoke Chinese. I was their translator even though I had 4 hands in my mouth (thats what she said).
  3. I asked for more anesthetics but the dental assistant adamantly refused to let the new dentist give me more because the new dentist was "on watch."
  4. Dear ASS-TO-THE-ANT I NEED MORE NUMBING<>
  5. Half way through the cleaning it started to feel really weird, as if she was scraping my gums (uh oh)
  6. At the end it started hurting. WTF i hate youuuuuuu.
  7. It was 11:40 and I was already going to be late to my next appointment. I was not able to get some other teeth stuff done that required needles and anesthetics of which now I must come in AGAIN to be shot in the mouth for your crappy crappy crappy service. (The dentist is nice, her assistants are retarded).
  8. Dermatologist was a-okay.
  9. I got back to work and was trying to bring a nice full plate of friend chicken up the stairs until suddenly I trip and all the food lands all over me.
I hate you life.
