NOTES TO MYSELF

Tuesday, August 19, 2003

"You only think that you can't."

What did I do yesterday? Oh, it was a very, very, very lovely day. Rob and I went to eat at Noodle Planets after we cuddled in bed for, like, two hours. Food was good--RICE NOODLES WITH BEEF, HONG KONG SYTLE. Then I became majorly irritated with the boy at BOBA WORLD--I wanted a redbean milkshake, and they had the red bean ice cream and obviously they had milk, but the boy insisted that they could not sell red bean milkshake because it was not on the menu. I could not deal with such rigidity and stupidity; such built-in inflexibilities in a food-service store is ridiculous; it's like a Chinese restaurant telling you that they cannot make your noodle soup spicy because it does not have a star on its menu to indiciate that it's a spicy dish. I told the boy that what he said didn't make sense; I don't think he undertsood me. The boy was obviously Thai. I was very disappointed at my fellow Asian for being so not creative as to lose out on a money-making opportunity, how uncharacteristic of our people.

Anyhow, we proceeded to go to Borders in West Hollywood. I will write the story about my pants some other time. Rob and I both bought books, and Jay gave me his chicken to eat when we got home. Very nice. I am going to stop now because I want to go finish the book that I bought, only 100 pages to go.
