  • 20120205-Random Notes

    Here are my notes via the “Memo” app of my smart/cellphone:

    2012/02/05 22:44. I logged into the Firefox Sync Setup. I forgot what it was supposed to do.

    2012/02/05 20:33. “Recovery Manager, Welcome to Recovery Manager, HP’s tool that lets quickly get your operating system back up and tuning if it ever becomes corrupt.”

    “I need help immediately | Microsoft System Restore | Microsoft Startup Repair Tool System Recovery”

    “I like to take precautions File Backup Program”.

    2012/02/05 20:29. “Window is loading files.”

    2012/02/05 20:29. At 20:29, I restored and reinstalled system files to original factory settings.

    2012/02/05 19:03. At 09:07, Bella called Maw. Jerel and his family moved out of his parent’s house and Jerilynne moved in with her Mexciano boyfriend. His mother, Malouse, is still throwing her retirement party and continues to throw parties regardless of her financial problems, such as borrowing money from “friends” to help with her mortgage. Bella talked continuous for one hour and Maw couldn’t understand her ramblings. Maw couldn’t get a word into the conversation. Bella is honest but rendered a nutter by my Uncle Dead and his paranoid ways.

    2012/02/05 16:35. At 14:34 and while I prepared the four parakeets (including the new baby parakeet, Mel) for their bath outdoors, I heard and saw a light plane flew DIRECTLY overhead/our home. It was traveling from a general due east direction towards due west on a cloudy day, too. I flicked it off as I had the garden hose ready at the grassy area.

    2012/02/05 12:21. We were watching “The Mystery of Happiness” by John Stossel on televised cable programming. Maw parrotted what he said and claimed that she applied whatever the guests and the host were discussing. She then started her daily honest criticism upon me that time and later Paw or whoever was the intended target.

  • Veggie and pompano fish soup…

    At 12:31pm, here are my quick notes during the cooking/boiling of Maw’s “sinigang” soup recipe:

    (12:08)

    ~Clean fish yourself or better yet have the butchers remove the fins and innards.
    ~Boil two small “gabi” (or oblong-shaped, taro roots, skinned and sliced vertically in half).
    ~Boil one “handful” of green beans (cut off the stems) with 1.5″ wedge of onion.
    ~Remove green beans and boil (small) Napa cabbage, sliced vertically in half.
    ~Add one tablespoon of “Sinigang” soup base mix (Mama Sita) and fish sauce (Rufina) to taste.
    ~Remove green beans, taro roots and Napa cabbage and set aside in bowl.
    ~Boil one Philippine eggplant, cut into 1″ discs.

    (12:31)

    ~Add ONE pompano fish, cut in half (one head section, one tail section).
    ~Add back the green beans, taro root and napa cabbage.
    ~Boil all ingredients, say another 20 to thirty minutes, until fish is cooked.

    Enjoy!

  • Sports ship…

    For most if my life I’ve been a spectator if sports. During my growing years back east, I recall watching Jerry West play basketball.

    We’d watch during the rain and snow. I sometimes watch the sunset, a big orange ball, going down part our front windows to my right.

    So you can say that our long, wooden Magnovox stereo system was facing “north”.

    During my teenage years, I participated in P.E. (or physical education) during classes. It wasn’t my favorite class. I almost got on the “president’s list” but couldn’t complete the sit-ups in time. Running was the worse. Getting hit on the head by a big softball wasn’t fun.

    During my young adult, I joined a health club. It was the 24-hour Nautilus. The place smelled. the people smelled. I worked on all the weight lifting equipment but never joined the aerobics.

    As I got older, I enjoyed watching live baseball with the companies I worked for. I didn’t care for baseball as much as I cared for watching on television, my favorite football team, the Denver Broncos, because my ex-boyfriend of a spook has a second uncle who was a coach of the team.

    Then I realized that doing sports was hard work and caused me some pain. I just didn’t like running after the tennis ball, the ping-pong ball, the badminton thingy or even a simple Frisbee. Walking SLOWLY was the only healthy option for me now because of my aching feet.

    Further I felt certain sports are  violent, if not deadly whereby guys hurt each other in football and gals suffer paralysis from falls in gymnastics. I get stressed out just watching the Olympic and the potential for injury by these athletes.

    I didn’t like the competitive mentality of winner takes all; while all others are left in defeat without shiny trophies or as runner-up with silver or bronze medals. I wanted everyone to win in any time zone.

    Yes, I do make fun of those who didn’t win or run funny. I admit my shortcomings in playing sports is projected as laughter toward those competitors who strive to do more than just physical health but to be the best among the rest.

    Sportsmanship is supposed to mean taking the fall for another who cannot keep up or know how to play by the rules.

    As per Rick’s speech in Greeley, Colorado, “don’t be “stewards” who “dropped the ball”. In other words, part nice and be there for each other as team players.

  • 20120203-Random Notes

    Here are my notes via the “Memo” app of my smart/cellphone:

    2012/02/02 1313. I awoke from a nap side 1248, after the orthopedic doctor takes with Paw in the waiting room. The creep coughed s if I were Chinese. I mumbled under my breath that we aren’t Chinese! He looked like Landy with his buck teeth. His skin was light as were his eyes. His catwalk structure was narrow. He doesn’t say much about estimate time of recovery. He didn’t seem to care about my presence twice already.

    2012/02/02 1309. I awoke from a livid dream of Maw wincing from a needle pain by the nurse I was sitting upright on a chair in the waiting room.

    2012/02/02 1255. I had a thought about the angels versus the demons, the saints versus the devils and the martyrs versus the jinns.

    2012/02/02 1102. I had a thought about a poem:

    “Most of us are clueless and don’t know what is going on or if we belong.”

    2012/02/02 0915. The morning was old fart smell in the air and it read a foggy morning.

    2012/02/02 0914. I noticed double digit numbers on the MG E430 dashboard: 911am, 41,944 speedometer), 915.4 (odometer), and the following of a white Subaru with CA license plate number ending in 144.

    2012/02/02 0819. Father Paul was talking about a Candle Mass, which he does (in my mind at private residences). My mind created how candles represent souls residing inside each person, where the “head/flammable end”is the heart. Each person is responsible to want to bend/bow toward the Light to ignite their soul s.

    2012/02/02 0036. I had a thought about the layers of those planet: fire of hell, water and earth, then air and clouds of heaven.

    2012/02/01 1933. Maw read showing me a defrosted bunch of “lanzones” fruit on branches. The fruit looks like air sacs of the lung.

  • Maw’s post surgery…

    We awoke early at 5:30am. I wasn’t fully awake. And in a few minutes, Paw went upstairs and invited me to eat breakfast with him while Maw got ready for her surgery, a decompression repair for a torn rotor cuff of the right shoulder.

    We attended morning mass and usual and left early immediately after taking the Eucharist; got gasoline; went home to poop and then proceeded to the hospital, where we found parking at the basement and nearest to the elevator leading to the “Surgery Center”.

    From 9:38am to 2:30pm, we signed in, waited in the lobby and then inside the recovery room and then left. For the next 24 hours, Maw slept with her sling around her arm and pain killers. Rice porridge helped to keep food down and the pills, too.

    Today she is up and around and helped cleaned, too. Her strength and leadership qualities have returned. I stayed up until four in the morning and took a nap for two hours until noontime today, just to make things flow smoothly.

  • Remarks by the President at the National Prayer Breakfast

    Here are some fundamental thoughts for all followers of CHRIST (aka “Christians”) from Remarks by the President at the National Prayer Breakfast:

    “But for me as a Christian, it also coincides with Jesus’s teaching that “for unto whom much is given, much shall be required.”  It mirrors the Islamic belief that those who’ve been blessed have an obligation to use those blessings to help others, or the Jewish doctrine of moderation and consideration for others.”

    “To answer the responsibility we’re given in Proverbs to “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute.” And for others, it may reflect the Jewish belief that the highest form of charity is to do our part to help others stand on their own.”

     

  • 20120126-Random Notes

    Here are my boring notes via the “Memo” app of my smart/cellphone:

    21:00. The boy left the house after Maw told him about this old house when she and Paw passes on.

    17:46. Paw reported that the illegal dumping of carboards and boxes on MY long stretch of road has been cleaned up by the city at around 15:00.

    Yesterday, I submitted a “help ticket” to the City of San Jose under Paw’s account via Category | City Service and Manage Case | Environmental Services.

    At 09:45PM tonight, I “saved” a “Thank You Note” under the “Notes and Attachments” section and “submitted” a “Case Resolved by Self Service”, too! I love this city and of course computers and the possibility of internet connection!

    We (as volunteers) could have done it ourselves but there might have been hiddend “BOMBS” inside the trash or contaminated needles sticking out. And we could have been injured for being helpful. So it was logical to have the city handle the case, of course.

    13:50. Paw wanted to buy two-3 gallons and two-5 gallons of water for a total of $4 (or $0.25 per gallon). But I had to back out my car from behind the Mazda, which has a VERY roomy trunk/clearance for the plastic bottles.

    I had opened the garage and noticed a familiar maroon-colored, Dodge caravan coming from northbound on MY long stretch of road. She glanced into our opened garage as I quickly turned away to close the garage.

    The synchronicity is uncanny and definitely SATANIC. Anyway, it was good thing Paw had to use the toilet because we wanted the way to be clear for a few minutes before I go outdoors and move my car. I noticed that the gray-colored Buick station wagon was not parked in front of their house.

    09:39. During breakfast, Maw recalled how Uncle Dead complained about living with the Chingster and how paying $30 per month, compared to Uncle Smack paying $20, was already too much for buying salt and pepper. He forgot the free food and lodging cost more than his “fair share”. All those ingrates owe the Chingster a great deal. Pay-back will be karma in the form of family/health/financial problems.

  • End times…

    Ezekiel 38 and 39 KJV

    “3And say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I am against thee, O Gog…”

     

    “6And I will send a fire on Magog, and among them that dwell carelessly in the isles: and they shall know that I am the LORD.”

  • No control…

    It seems that I have NO control over my investment whatsoever over twelve slong years. This early morning I came across two news article online that might explain what is going on my end in an eerily similar fashion:

    http://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/01/24/romney-paid-3m-in-federal-income-tax-in-2010/

    • “a Swiss bank account closed”
    • “any aggressive tax strategies to help reduce or defer […] tax income”
    • “lawyer who makes investments for […] and oversees their blind trust, which was set up to avoid any conflicts of interest in investments during…”
    • “investments are routed through affiliate funds”
    • “a number of foreign investments, including funds based in Ireland, Switzerland, Germany and Luxembourg“

    http://www.boston.com/news/politics/articles/2012/01/24/fact_check_gingrich_flubs_history_in_gop_debate/?page=full

    • “the investments were handled by a trustee with no direction by the candidate.”
    • “assets from both lenders among other government income”
    • “separate investments in each of the lenders in […] individual retirement account“‘

    Once again, the alphabet soup could and would NOT help me because my loss was NOT worth it!!!

  • 20120124-Random Notes

    Here are some boring notes via the “Memo” app of my cellphone:

    21:00. Hannity mentioned how “flat” Obama‘s speech was earlier this evening. An imagery of viewers are eating the “fortune”, which is printed in black and white, instead of the cookie, which is edible, of course.

    20:34. I threw up some of tonight’s dinner out through my mouth and up through my nose. I blew out some of the chunks from my right nostrils.

    19:16. Obama finished his “State of the Union” speech. Maw and I fell asleep after thirty minutes into the speech. I was charging with the Z4e Zapper by holding in both hands, between the shoulder blades, around my neck and then finally underneath my forearms.

    18:11. After a few words of thanks and a brief introduction, Obama started his speech. Noticed the double digit number of eleven. His speech was fiery. He later mentioned “fraud”, which is my personal cue to everyone who knows what I’m talking about.

    12:33. I am currently charging the vacinnated site with DC’s zapper. I have the Z4e zapper underneath each of my sweaty armpits. The buzz/sting hurts but I wanted to minimize any alleged “allergic reaction” of the serum flowing through my system.

    11:24. I got my “Tetanus, Diphtheris (Td) or Tentanus, Diphtheria, Pertussis (Tdap)” from Susan of the front office to my primary care physician, who said I had a choice. I wanted my coughing “spell” to be banquished through this “routine protection” worth $60. I paid $125 for today’s visit.

    11:20. I got a copy of my blood results. My “RBC“, “Hemoglobin”, “Hematocrit“, “Eos (Absolute)”, “Cholesterol, Total”, “Triglycerides“, and “LDL Cholesterol Calc” are flagged as “High”. The doctor asked if I ate red meat and saturated fat. I didn’t lie about eating burgers and fries! She wanted me to follow-up in three months to see if I needed medication for hypertension, high-blood pressure and/or high cholesterol/triglycerides.

    10:44. My primary care physician and another doctor “are designated civil surgeons for immigration medical examinations.”

    10:33. I swearved to the left lane and avoided a long metal piece, which fell off from a truck I was following on West 237. It had veered suddenly away from the North 85 exit and onto my lane. Paw believed it came off from underneath the truck. The white vehicle was stopped on the third lane from the right at the streetlight.

    09:50. Maw was talking about how Smitten has something to hide since he closed his Swiss account and has lots of money stashed in the Cayman Island. She then asked about my investment of which I said I have no control.

    01:00. I’ve tossed and turned, coughed and gagged while trying to get to sleep after waking up since one o’clock this morning. I heard one muffled/damped sound at 02:41am, which was the loudest followed by others at 02:50am, 02:56am, 03:30am and 04:38am.

  • 20120123-Random Notes

    As y’all will notice, I really don’t like blogging all that much and have included some notes:

    15:38pm. I saw twelve black bird spread out and flying southwest between 220 and 240 degress against fluffy clouds of gray with some white fluffs in the horizon westward.

    15:22. Paw is upset over Illegal dumping of cardboard boxes on MY long stretch of road. If the city and its union thugs don’t get give a damn about our property value and expect me to report the incident on Paw’s account, you guys can DIE and GO TO HELL! I don’t care if it is Lunar New Year of the dragon or if you know my true identity. I’ll just light it up like a bonfire and see if any unconcerned ASIANS/refugees/illegal ALIENS from my neighborhood care enough to call the fire department. What? No phone calls? There’s your answer. No one cares! You fools are wasting my tax money!

    15:16. Yeyo has produced egg number three. Egg number one might have been laid six days ago with the second one two days ago. Only egg number one might be fertilized. She is in solitary confinement since Yeyo abused Baby Mel. The feathers on the right side of his head were pulled up into tufts.

    12:50. For the past few days, I recall what “intentions” I wanted after the lecturer/priest/deacon reads off the “Prayer of the Faithful”

    • Be reconciled with God.
    • Be healed by God.

    Anything else is being selfish (or taking sides). The point is to take your side first; so that you could express God through yourself.

    10:07. Baby Mel gets easily spooked. It is wobbly and might be disabled due to being Buddy’s son, his own brother! Eww! It has learned to jump up from the bottom of the cage to the sides. It has also learned two days ago how to turn 180 degrees on its perch and is playing with the one mirrored toy and string.

    Maw is almost finished with my pink sweater. She is sewing two applique of flowers (bought from Fabric R Us) for $1.00 a piece. She had done the purple sweater on Saturday, the same night I wore it for evening mass.

    Paw is getting better with his attitude. He is speeding up his activities. I keep scolding him NOT to stare into the vanity mirror too much. It was something I read about “ʾIblīs (Arabic: إبليس‎)” looking back from the mirror.

  • Paying for keeps…

    Three days ago I answered a “formspring.me” question about the first thing I’d buy if I had a million dollars. My first thought was to buy a brand new car because I wanted to show off my new ride. The temptation to “keep up appearances” and the impulse to own something new, however, would NOT be possible at this time because of insufficient funds. Paw told me that I should keep my old car because it is already paid off. Eric, a VERY fugly ex-boyfriend of mine long ago, told me that a good car can last twenty years if you take good care of it.

    And since I am NOT mechanically minded like my brother, who told me that my bad fuel pump was the culprit for the engine stopping during hot weathers; since I don’t know anything about taking apart the car for repairs or the reasons why the car malfunctions; and since don’t care about the contents under the hood and don’t clutter the trunk or interior of my car, other than a box of tissue paper and an umbrella, I still have my 1998 Ford Mustang, which still runs good after 13 years of normal commuting to and from work and home.

    All I know is how to bring in the car for oil changes and to wash/vacuum it myself. I also do know that I’m “playing for keeps”. After all, why give up something that has been part of me? Owning a car is much like having a family, which cannot be replaced or given up so easily, no matter what types of troubles they bring. I take up after my parents, who like to buy durable goods and keepsakes that will last a lifetime. And that’s why I cannot give up on my car or “my family”.
