Deep Couches.

I'm one of those people with kind of a short legs. At least on a purely quantitative level, but I also think on a percentage basis also. So I'm sitting on my couch that actually goes pretty deep. This whole experience is actually kind of uncomfortable while using a laptop. I never realized this until today. So naturally that means one of two options.

First, my legs shrunk. Second, I've never used my laptop on my couch. I wonder which one it is.

So it's been a while since I've last written here. I realize that it's been a while since a lot of people I know have written in their respective blogs. Maybe it's like that whole marriage and babies thing. Once someone starts, all others seem to follow. In this case it would be stops, but same concept.

I had dinner and drinks with an old friend recently. It's been many years, and come to think of it I don't actually know how many years it's been. I remember the last time was in San Francisco. I even remember the restaurant and what kind of beer I ordered. But for the life of me I can't pinpoint when it happened.

It was good to catch up and see how the river of life has eroded different paths for each of it.

What really got me was something he said about something. I know, could I be more vague. But for those who have been reading this since many years back, there's only been a handful of events which have impacted my life on a fundamental level. I'm referring to one of them.

What's kind of weird about the whole situation of what he said, you have to fast forward to today. I was talking to Anthony about this concept of a 'bro code'. I guess I never thought about it, but there are a lot of guys out there who I would not call trustworthy. Why is that? I mean, it's reality but I remember a time, perhaps only in some alternative reality for the good things I believe in survive, that you could set you watch to the dependability of others.

And yes, I know random others are not your 'bros' per say. But I'm being intentionally vague.

Anyways, today is Tuesday and I thought it was Wednesday. FRACK!!!

thank you dan. it's good to hear from you. looking at your picture blog reminded me of our similar taste in cars. i have become a big admirer of the gti. it's timeless. i think one of the big reasons people blog less is because facebook took over. it's more of a quick-hit. but i can see your blog is still deep w/many layers. *joe

Many girls out there are not trustworthy either. What makes it worse is that girls play games. They'll act nice in front of you but hurt you behind your back. I guess that's why they made the movie "Mean Girls" instead of "Mean Guys". HA!
