luningning

why is it that at the end of the year, even without senseless spending or strange volatility in the markets (both gambling and genuine), i seem to find myself in financial distress. not necessarily in deep shit trouble, but more like "where have all my hard earned funds gone?" unfortunately, despite my best interests to invest in profitable ventures, my sense of duty and loyalty to kaibigan at kapatid alike, i refuse to charge interest on loans. because you never know when you might be in a position of need, it's not a good thing to be too strict a creditor (at least to comrades and familia anyway; fuck everyone else - if they want my money, there has to be a return in it for me).

tomorrow is kurisumasu eve. pretty much everyone i know works (at least during the daytime), as do i. that doesn't bother me, because i am in severe need of scratch (see above). also, if i neglected to mention it in my last post, my little vacation to the motherland left me minus one week of work. therefore, that negative work week equals a zero balance paycheck. meaning, i missed out on a solid week's worth of pay. that also may explain my current state of duress (see above).

i have been eating too much blazin steaks. an 8oz steak, two scoops of rice, tossed salad, and a drink for $6 flat (no tax) is too good to be true. but since it is true, i've been there at least 5 times in the span of 3 or 4 days. is that a bad thing? hell no. is it a bad thing for my wallet? slightly (not as much as say, outback or cattle company). is it a bad thing for my diet? sort of (it's all white rice). other than that, fuck it, it's steak. i can have steak pretty much everyday for the rest of my (now decidedly shorter, thanks to all that red meat) life.

i need to brush up on my tagalog. why? because that way, i won't be completely lost or sold into slavery the next time i go to PI. also, it would be nice to communicate with all my future wives such as luningning from wowwowee or christine reyes from eva fonda.

currently: mentally preparing myself to go on a much needed run (it's been at least 2 months since i've gone)
