Which is the Canadian pronunciation? Sked-you-ul or shed-you-ul? I dunno. But I say sked-you-ul :) I was totally beat last night, and went to bed nice and early -- only I was woken by the phone about 15 minutes after I fell asleep. He who must not be named used to do that to me all the time. I didn't bother picking up, but I had to go pee. I always worry that I can't fall back asleep if I wake up in the middle of the night. This morning I woke up way before my alarm clock went off. I was kind of happy about that. I'll be off to the gym in a bit. Last night I had Japanese with Tom and Eva; the food was okay. It was great to see them. I hadn't seen them since their wedding a year and a half ago, and I didn't call them when I was in Hong Kong last time :oops: Tom sees to have gotten accustomed to Hong Kong life quite well. He's now translating web pages, and he doesn't even need to know Chinese to do it :lol: I guess Tom is my oldest friend from the Internet. I met him at a newsgroup (alt.sex.fetish.oriental) back when there was actual discussion and stuff. :lol: I was probably 17 or 18; I had just started university. He was the one who coined the term "rosielogic" for my thought processes :lol: He's the kind of friend I can not talk to for a long time and then just pick up again. There have been a couple of times in our ~10 years of friendship where he just kind of disappeared. And there were a couple of times where he thought that he and I could be a couple. I never considered that. In fact, one time, he decided to come visit and I didn't see him at all because I was so uncomfortable with him trying so hard to convince me. But that was a long time ago. He went through more girlfriends and now he's married. He met Eva online at some forums, I think. They did the long-distance thing right from the beginning (she: Hong Kong; he: USA) and met up 3 times before marrying. [And holy geez, the USA sure makes things extremely difficult for tourists to get visas. In order to get a visa, you have to prove that you are not going to make any attempts to stay and live there.So she's never been to the States. They had visits here and England.] I love their story because I think it's just amazing that even though their distance was a challenge, they've still made it work. Unfortunately, our current schedules only allowed us to meet up last night. They're meeting up with other family, and then I will be out of town :( It was really good to see them again. We did some catching up. I told Tom about my job situation, and he was like, "weren't you talking about quitting like a year and a half ago?" I don't remember. But he gave me such a knowing look when I told him we had a consultant in. Tom was a techie consultant at some point. And finally, towards the end of dinner, he asked me about boys. I think he had been itching to ask a lot earlier. I gave him a very brief update, and that was it. He expects drama in that department from me. |
