| why you shouldn't bring fish to work. or really, bring lunch.
*scene 1*
(a co-worker walks into the office). "Man, something smells terrible!"
Response from another co-worker: "I know, someone brought some food in. It smells sooo bad."
[Meanwhile, of course, I'm sitting there obliviously eating my food, wondering what they're smelling -- because I can't smell anything bad.
But after looking around... I realize they're surreptitiously glancing over at me. I quickly shove the remaining bites in my mouth and hastily make my way over to the kitchen to wash out the tupperware]
*scene 2 at a team meeting*
derek, the director of our team: "hey howard (a co-worker who sits near me), does it smell better now where you sit?"
Howard: "yeah, I guess so"
derek: "I think I figured out the smell. Tuna. But microwaved! God! Why?!"
[Meanwhile, of course, I'm sitting at the table not sure if it was me. I mean, maybe it was someone else with stinky food? But then he looks over at me. Horrified, I thankfully realize that I forgot the printout of the presentation and rush to my desk to grab it.]
For the record, it was red snapper. And seasoned with herbs, chili powder, salt and pepper.
The thing is, I didn't think it smelled. Maybe because I've become desensitized?
I've learned my lesson now.

Oh Berkeley, why can't I quit you?

| This is what happens when you have an impromptu get-together at your house with many people who are very easily amused. This is what happens when someone gets a hold of your MacBook with a built in iSight camera and finds the special effects in Photo Booth.
And this is what happens when the owner of the MacBook has Xanga and isn't afraid to use it.

| I realized xanga posts really are only interesting if there are pretty graphics or pictures accompanying them (in my ADD mind). so without further ado, the alaska saga continues...
Alaska, Round 2.
