i just watched the funniest game of monopoly played out until the bank was down to a single $5 bill and like twenty $1 bills. ok gil...girl you rock. too funny. she was kickin' butt - so much so that she started to closely resemble one mr. montgomery burns and she also acquired an eerie cackle.

since my last rant about my mom's hawk-like gaze, i've decided to venture out...just leave - but too bad it's while she's at work so it's not really that gutsy. *sigh* anyway...i went and spent some time with my friend jessica [one of the handful of non-asian friends that i have left in this world - i super miss diverse people!] :) anywho...we had a good time catching up and hanging out. it was a bit of a throwback to high school and when we used to work at the dry cleaners...how we'd just make fun of each other and laugh - all in a very loving manner of course :)

it feels good to leave the house and just be out. i'm thinking tomorrow...i'm going to resume the target/best buy/costco thing i usually do back in seattle. wahoo! or as garrett would say "wh00t" haha.
