Friday the Thirteenth

I heard the buzzing of the alarm. I forced my eyes open, only to see red tinted sunlight coming through the windows... a blood red dawn to this day. Odd, I thought. I don't usually see anything but pale sunlight at this hour. The moon was oddly shaped last night, as if someone had decided to cleave it in half diagonally.

As I look outside right now, the gray skies, and the trees blown about tell me that we're due for some rain.

I don't really believe in being superstitious about Friday the Thirteenth, but...

Today, I have already:

• Gone to sleep at 3am, only to wake at 630am.
• Scratched my car by being careless.
• Stood in line for 30 minutes to register for my class.
• Recieved a parking ticket (Parking Ticket was given out only a few minutes before I had returned to my car).
• Arrived late to work.
• Worked through lunch.
• Left my laptop on at home.

On the plus side of things... found out today that Jet Li will be in SF promoting his new video game. I love Jet Li's movies, and he's my hero (forgive me for the horrible pun), but I hate video game promo events... and video game promo events with signings are especially bad... even moreso at the Metreon.

Speaking of Hero, I was in my co-worker's office yesterday and saw the DVD case on his desk... I never get tired of that movie. He bought it off Ebay for 5 bucks. In hindsight, I probably should have looked for it when I went to the city last week for the New Year's Parade. Ah well.

Amanda posted a recipe for Mayan Hot Chocolate today, and I'm really tempted to make some. The weather looks questionable, and there's nothing quite like having a cup of hot chocolate while reading a good book during a cold or rainy night.
