I dragged my ass out of the apartment tonight to attend Jeff’s farewell dinner. Jeff is leaving SJC and UBC for two years as part of his PhD work. He’ll be studying in Japan. Jeff, I know I will miss you. I look forward to a trip to Future Shop sometime down the road.
We went to Sushi Aoki for dinner, which is always an excellent choice for Japanese. Other than being kinda out of it, I was actually alright for most of the evening. That is until sometime after I ate my food, at which point I started to cough nearly uncontrollably. It went on for like an agonizing five to seven minutes. I’m just glad everyone just left me alone to work it out by myself.
After my coughing fit, the waitress took a group photo, which you see above. Despite my thumbs-up, I was not feeling so great. Karen said I looked pale. I prefer to call it being in a state of “conservative bloodflow”.
Part of the group then departed to go see a movie. As Karen left she said, “and the next time I saw Erwin, he had a tube down his throat”. Wonderful. That left Eddy, Frank, Woba, and myself. I convinced Eddy to drive me to Safeway so I could get some more cough medicine and anal throat lozenges. When we got to the Safeway on 10th, I discovered something amazing. It’s actually possible for a hot girl to wear a skirt four inches long and still keep both her ass cheeks covered. If you want more details go ask Frank, Eddy or Woba, this blog is about me after all.
After buying medicine, a sandwich, lozenges, and some caffeine-free Coke, the boys dropped me off at home. I’ve been trying to study and work ever since. Right now, I can feel my sinuses are just a bit achy, which is usually a sign they’re drying up. Hopefully that means my body is beginning to stop producing mucous.
Anyways, let’s hope I feel better tomorrow.
