sunday morning from the box. funny how it's cool to call somewhere "the box" if you don't really like it. making it seem like it's a prison. i remember an episode of the a-team where they were at some hick prison and one of them was stuck in "the box." it seemed like such a terrifying experience to me, at the time. i think they actually called it "the sweat box." either way, it didn't look like anything i wanted to fuck with.

regardless, i'm at work, sipping orange juice, staring off into space. it's always pretty slow in here on sunday mornings. there's never really anyone here…the lights are all low…it's like a whole other workplace. i would have to say that sunday ends up being my favorite workday because the atmosphere is so different. much less stressful, to say the least.

i need to get a couple of things taken care of on my car before i leave for a short roadtrip thursday night. i'm planning on getting the brake pads changed on tuesday, utilizing (much to the shop's chagrin, i'm sure) my lifetime warranty on the things. other than that, i'll probably dump some fuel system cleaner into the tank right before i fill it up to head out.

too much car business lately. this place is starting to sound like "shop talk."

matt came over for a little while yesterday. we went out for lunch at the kfc and then hung around the house for a little while. matt commented on the new decor of the room (spartan), and had fun visiting the couch. we shot the shit about everything that's been going on lately. i told him a little about the girl. things are going well for matt (except his numerous computer troubles) in the new place, he seems to be settling in okay.

then i drove around for a little while. i ended up at the comic shop and then i went out to see scott at work. i mentioned i was hungry, he mentioned not wanting to go out to eat. i stopped by q'doba on the way home and picked up my standard mammoth of a burrito. scott cruised by after work and we sat around watching the entire half hour of radiohead live stuff mtv was broadcasting. i was slightly let down, to say the least. they could have at least showed the entire thing…

my life is incredibly boring when i'm happy. well…boring to others, anyway…
