John Legend's outdoor concert

On Friday evening, Philliam took me to the John Legend concert. thanks Jasmine for the awesome tickets! My cousin and her girlfriend also happened to be there. Not surprised. My cousin has spent half her life at concerts, shows, etc. Lucky her! She promised to take me to see Jason Mraz 2 years ago. I need to pester her about that.

India Arie was the opening act. I love outdoor shows, I ought to attend more shows when I get the chance. I haven't listened to India Arie since my freshmen year of high school when I lived in the bay area. My, oh my. That was so loooooong ago! Her music brought back lots of memories of attending such a large high school. Sometimes I wonder how different my life would have been if I had graduated from there.

My Labor Day Weekend Rant

I had a relatively, effortless, unproductive Labor Day weekend. It was nice to just lounge around the house with an arm full of furry critters with whiskered faces. Due to my lack of unproductive-ness, I haven't been inspired to write anything significant. Writers block, perhaps. I missed one of my good ol' friend's birthday dinner on Saturday evening because I had no car (I'm still car-less!) and didn't want to pester people into giving me rides. Would've been great to go because I wanted to show off the scars of my mosquito bites from Cambodia and Vietnam - bastard insects. So here I am, sitting in my office waiting for the legislatures to begins their floor session. It's currently 9:30am, they were suppose to start at 9am, these guys never start on time. *shakes head* Last night I saw a ripened large banana sitting on the kitchen counter and decided to whip up some good ol' fashion homemade banana bread. I'm so glad I did because now I have something healthy to snack on during the work hours rather than starving my buns off. I'd rather starve than feed my body cheap-processed-packaged snacks. I used to dislike how there are mini marts within 20 steps of my office building because I would mindlessly walk inside and walk out with $20+ worth of things I didn't need. I had no control over my ugly habits at the time. However, all that has changed when I started to...- when I began to...- ...hmm. I don't know why I stopped. Can a person really change their way of thought without much planning? O_O .::BREAKING NEWS::. Duvall removed from committee after vulgar comments caught on tape!!! He's an Assemblymember with the California legislature whom I've seen several times when I'm working, but I've never had any business to deal with his office since the organization I work for isn't one of his constituents. This is hilarious because it's making me wonder what exactly does "family values" mean these days when politicans like Duvall, keep repeating that phrase. Here's the article from sacbee if you're so interested in reading.
