Training Brian
Posted on September 19, 2004 by Ching under Life.
No Sky Captain today.
Brian and I just realized we have A Man on Fire to watch still, and I’ve got this homework that just frustrates me to tears. And the movie lines are way too easy to guess. Ugh. So there will be no Sky Captain today.
Anyway, we went to Wal-Mart to get some food for Brian’s nerd-fest on Wednesday. Note to self: stay away from the house. The nerd-fest I’m referring to is his Star Wars marathon that he’s been planning for the last two weeks now.
While we were at Wal-Mart, we got a memory card for Brian’s XBOX. We got the XBOX, a second controller and three games (NASCAR Chase for the Cup 2005, Star Wars Battlefont and Halo)at Best Buy. I asked Brandon, Brian’s friend who so wonderfully brought a copy of Battlefront from the back room for us to buy (even though it doesn’t officially get released until Tuesday), if we needed anything else and he didn’t think of the memory card either. So we were at Wal-Mart and as our cashier was going to fetch our memory card she tells this other lady in Tagalog to watch us. I tell Brian that she is Filipina and I told him what she said because he didn’t seem to believe me. When she returned she was talking to this other lady in Tagalog about when her break would be and stuff. I was trying to translate the conversation for him so we would be convinced but he didn’t seem to care.
At any rate, after we paid, I told Brian to tell her thank you. He goes, “Thank you.” I go, “I meant for you to say thank you in Tagalog!” The lady just smiled.
As we were walking away I was picking on Brian for not seizing the opportunity to show off his linguistic ability. “How can you be a good trained puppy dog if you can’t even do the tricks that you’ve been taught?” I joked.
I’m so mean! Â

That Done-Something-Wrong Look
Posted on September 17, 2004 by Ching under Life.
Brian says that I’ve got that done-something-wrong look about me today. I’m not sure exactly what that “look” looks like. I asked him to show me but he couldn’t. I asked him to describe it, and he couldn’t describe it either.
I didn’t realize that there’s a specific done-something-wrong look.
He says that everyone has a sad look, happy look, angry look, excited look, worried look and then there’s that done-something-wrong look. He said I had that particular look about me this evening. And his first question was, “What did you buy?” I told him I hadn’t bought anything. I bought those two bags from eBags.com last night but he knew about those.
He’s like, “Have you cheated on me?” I just laughed. He tells me that he would be devastated if he finds out that I have. I said, “I’m sorry.” “Sorry about what?” he asks. “Sorry that you’d feel that way. I would never want to hurt you.”
“So did you finally have that orgy that you’ve been wanting?” he jokes. I go, “Yeah. With everyone in dance class. Including our flamboyant, creepy dance instructor.”
Bwa ha ha ha!
That’s a mental image I bet he didn’t want.

Incomplete Waxing
Posted on September 11, 2004 by Ching under Life.
I expected to be completely bald right now! I didn’t realize that when Brian scheduled my bikini wax, he only did a 30-minute bikini wax instead of a 45-minute bikini wax so Katy (the esthetician) didn’t have enough time to wax everything. I knew I should’ve called and double-checked! She had an appointment right after me so she didn’t have time to wax everything off. I still have a little strip left in the middle.
I guess it’s not very common to want to be completely bald down there, because they make the assumption that you want a 30-minute bikini wax and don’t even ask your preference when you make an appointment. You have to specify and, if you forget to, such as in my case then you are left with hair that you don’t want. Oh, well.
I scheduled another bikini wax for October 2, though, and this time I made sure that they put me down for 45 minutes! I also took the liberty of scheduling a couples massage for Brian and I on September 26 since we are due for another one. I should’ve scheduled a facial wax, too, but Healing Waters is kind of expensive and I think I can get it done cheaper at either Individually Yours, Planet Hair or Eric Fisher. I don’t know. I’ll have to price it and see. I’ll be at Eric Fisher for a haircut tomorrow so I guess I can ask them then.
