dude so i must be in pms mode or something cuz i was sooooo freaking irritated on the train this morning. normally i love the train. In the mornings i sleep like a baby..haha. but this week we got a new conductor and he talks loud as heck!!! Our usual conductor must understand how much we loathe getting on the train at 539am!, and thus speaks in a soothing voice about what stop is next, watch your step, hold on to the railing, ticket check, etc.. so i like him, his calm voice let's me sleep in the morning. On the other hand, this rookie sucks a$$ man! He talks so freaking loud, doesn't know how to release the mic on the p.a system, and talks like every 3 minutes..dude, on a train ride for about an hour it gets to be really annoying. now imagine my annoyance whilst pms is upon me. grrrrrr!

Then there's the uncle at the bus stop. after we reach the station we take the local bus to our respective work locations. there's always got to be that one loud guy seeking attention huh? this one is like a filipino uncle. when he yawns, he makes this yawning noise which he must think is funny. when he greets someone, he always has to include "brother." cracks me up though every morning when he says it to our african american bus driver (p.c man!). "hey, good morning brother, how you doing my brother, heyyy brother!" he says/does other things that are annoying but i usually don't care and just roll my eyes. i must've been in a yuck mood this morning bc of the stupid conductor cuz today uncle just irritated the heck out of me. haha poor fifi must've seen me roll my eyes a gazillion times. so he suggested i get ear plugs for the train, since union station is the last stop anyways. we'll see. maybe i'll just bring my mp3 player again.

so i think i might be getting carpal tunnel or some type of tendonitis/arthritis. the base of my thumb joint and my wrists have been so sore this past week. i mean my wrists used to crack before but lately they've been cracking a lot louder and it feels different. it sucks, i'll put my hand on the mouse and i start feeling my wrists get all stiff. boo and even when i type. like at this very moment my wrists are already feeling sore. geez, i didn't think i'd get this type of thing already. hopefully it's just minor.

because heroes is making me wait like crazy, we've been having band of brothers nights, aka bob night, lately. wow, that series is freaking awesome. really crazy how much they had to go through. sooooo scary! there's like so many parts where i'm jumping because of all the shooting or i'll just cover my eyes like a chicken, hehe. me & lou were jogging around the airforce hangar last week and were like, whoa this is where soldiers were training for that war! they were probably running along these same streets..i keep wikipedia'ing the characters because some of them i just can't believe that they were really the way they're portrayed. oooh and the actors who play spears and roe are nice to look at too..hehe.
