i capped off my 40 hour work week with a good, 5 hour nap today. being an office administrator for a construction business directly translates to this: even if there are no construction jobs being done at the moment (leaving all the carpenters/constructors with nothing to do and therefore a three day break), i am stuck in the office, typing up a 90 page safety manual until my eyes cross from staring at the computer screen for too long. so what do i do to unwind after my nap? go on my laptop and type this blog - smart...

it is ridiculously hot today and there's a good chance tomorrow will follow suit. unfortunate since we are planning on visiting town to purchase some much needed wardrobe. i need new tigers, since for some reason my ultimate tigers have a tear right on the top of my foot. funny how the shoes i don't use as often (tigers) are in worse condition than the ones i beat up more (running shoes). oh well...

had the "gluttony deluxe special" with k-fudge yesterday. it consists of: a denver breakfast bowl (a bowl of hash browns covered in scrambled eggs, peppers, cheese, and ham) with a 7-piece jalapeno popper side smashed into it then drizzled with buttermilk and sriracha. the oiliest and most disgusting thing i have ever eaten in one sitting. there's a good chance that that was the first and last time for that stupid thing. this was worse than - the ultimate oil breakfast sandwich at BK i had with successfully unsuccessful and the baked potato steakhouse burger i had at BK with k-fudge and d-bit a month or so ago.

last friends - a johnny's guy that uses DV (domestic violence) and nodame pulling off a tsurumoto nao. not bad, could have used less of certain characters and much less stupid on the part of others. but overall, not a bad series. ueno juri is probably my favorite j-actress.

labor day - i thankfully have it off. what to do? possibly shoot a shashinshu, go to church, plan our route for finding musume, or all three. fun times.

the joyous vacation of my mother's fraternal relatives is nearly at an end. however, in a few days, the eldest of my grandfather's offspring will be making his appearance here as well. this month has been nothing but family activities in my household. sadly, i haven't spent all of that time with them - work during the day and fatass dinners at night with the church of the morning daughter. i have finally gone to the beach though, and my tan hasn't improved one iota.

hawaii is ridiculous. after running an average of 2 miles a day for four days a week and having nothing but salad for lunch, i have gained 3 pounds. you either maintain your body weight here (by struggling viciously and completely changing all your eating and exercising habits) or you just gain weight. it is physically impossible to lose weight unless you do something extreme like living off of energy drinks and cigarettes - ultimately resulting in unsightly markings in the posterocubital area.

i have spent a good portion of yesterday navigating the roadways of this island in search of material warehouses/construction supplies and delivering them to obscure jobsites. the worst area i've had to deliver materials to - kalihi valley (nihi st.), with the hills the way they are, untethered dogs roaming around, and old whores lingering around the "parking" area, that is probably the most disgusting place by far.

a side benefit of all my getting lost and having to resort to the handy-dandy map in dad's truck is that i have found some of the hotspots on this island that i was looking for (in order to showcase to my friends when they arrive on this island next year). i just need some free time and a good map to get back to portlock again.

everything is growing slowly, but it's better to have some growth than none at all.
