The darned MUNI

What kind of help is the MUNI when this happens?



Imagine this. You expect the train in 14 minutes. You go out to wait for it and 14 minutes later, it's still 14 minutes away, according to NextMuni. 20 minutes later, you see what I saw above. So, the train was over 40 minutes late. And, it turns out, if you didn't get on that second train (which was supposed to be 15 min behind the front train), you were waiting for another "25" minutes. Right

My niece!

I got to see my puppy niece this weekend!!!! I was a little apprehensive - because I was used to the big excited welcomes from her where her entire butt wiggles big time (it's so cute, she looked like she was going to tip over with the force of the tail wagging!). I wasn't so sure I was going to get that this time because she's growing up so quickly! But when I saw her, I found that all my worries were for nothing. One of the happiest and most loving welcomes I've received!!! She's soooooo cute!

Answer to Poll: Audrey's on delivery call tonight, and it's 8/8/08 starting at midnight! How many ASIAN babies...

...do you think there will be delivered from midnite to 7 am?

A. 0
B. 1-3
C. 4-6
D. >6

So... turns out the hospital I was at doesn't have the highest Asian population, but still, I expected some babies! In reality, between midnight and 7 am, there was only 1 asian infant. And for the entire day, I think there were only like 3! Weird, hunh? There went my theory!

Back on the blog!

My lack of writing has been most hindered by my computer blowing up (ok, not really blowing up, but certainly many many problems. Basically, I needed to reinstall my operating system - darn that Vista! - and hope that my c: disk error is really only a problem with Vista and not really a hardware problem. Cross your fingers!) but also the Olympics and me just being lazy. :)

Well, it also doesn't help that I don't get NBC by my fancy 20-30 year old rabbit ears. But thanks to my dad, I can get it on my computer and so for the last two days, I have been glued to my computer watching the Olympics! Yay! So exciting, between the gymnastics stuff (btw, women's all around tonight - Nastia Liukin totally deserved the gold!) and Michael Phelps.


So, hopefully more blogging sooner than I have been in the last week!

Grrr Bluetooth

Is now magically not working on my computer. And 2 hours on Level 1 customer service did not do anything to alleviate the problem. Will look forward to my next 2 hours on the phone with Level 2 this next time. Argh!!!

So, sorry, no new pics. No new funny stories either at this time. :( Maybe after the weekend!!

Funny things I saw this week


Seriously? Cup o' noodles are now "healthy"?? Apparently Kaiser thinks so.


This was in UCSF. If you didn't guess already, this used to say "public" as in public restrooms. Ahh, kids (or adult, who knows?)...
