hello people,

driving into work today, i saw another big rig slowing down traffic. this time it was on the 10W, inbetween the 405N interchange and the national exit. not sure what happened, but let's just say, the grey sedan took one hell of a beating from the big rig. my guess is that the sedan was trying to get on the 405S interchange, and cut off the big rig, but didn't make it. so traffic was backed up quite a bit and i was stuck in traffic for about 20 minutes... going very slow.

a very worrying trend i've noticed lately. when i first get into bed, it's all very good and all very nice. i have my flat sheet perfectly placed beneath the comforter. however, when i wake up, the flat sheet is off to one side, all wrinkled up like enuzio that's on my bed. maybe i'm a violent sleeper? i don't know, but i don't like it. speaking of which, my new comforter is here. i ordered it last week and it's already here. i'm letting it "breath" right now. it's a king-sized, which means i'll have to go get a new duvet for it. but it was $100 less than the comforter i got at bed, bath and beyond. i wouldn't have gotten a new one, even though it costed an arm and a leg, but i didn't like how light the bbb comforter was. i like the comforter to be heavy. anyway, i got two more pillows with the comforter (it was a set), so i saved $12 on pillows (returned the pillows i got from the strouds outlet).

i've been thinking of getting a digital camera. but the one i want, the canon s230 (digital elph) is still too expensive for what i wanted to spend. and i don't feel like getting one that's lesser in price cuz i want all the latest gadgets fitted into a very small camera. so i guess i'll be part of the waiting game. but with two automobile "accidents" occurring on adjacent days, i'm beginning to think i need to get a camera immediately to capture the (how shall i put this?) "stupidity" of people driving in LA.

song/album of the day: "someone, somewhere in summertime" by simple minds (simply because it sounds so european during the winter time, of course).

time stuck in traffic: 50 minutes, drive home wasn't too bad.
