Last night I disavowed coke at 10:30 PM. Today at work things have gone quite will without my sugar daddy present in my right hand. So far I have caffeinated myself with two Vitamin Waters and a 4oz cup of tea. I imagine I will have at least one more cup of tea by the end of the day. In my regiment I am allowing tea, vitamin water and lattes.

Coming up this week on the blog will be my Ireland adventures and some recent CA belligerence.
So Ben and I have come to terms that we will not get our awesome pad in Bernal Heights because of a shady landlord. Summed up by Ben here "So, Mr. McMahon (hereby referred to as Mr. Ass) is doing some very shady stuff by holding 40 cortland for a low-income tenant so he can use Section 8 to gleam extra $ from the government. I don't know the details, but that's what the neighbors told me today. The apartment has been "for sale" for 4-5 months."
But thats okay because Ben found another awesome pad that is worthy enough to have us as tenants. http://www.phobia.net/~bchess/photos/vanness_apt/ Hopefully I will know next week if we get it or not. We are turning in our paperwork on Sunday.
The negatives with this place our parking is a bitch, no laundry and no dishwasher. The Bernal Heights place had all three of these in check, however, we believe we can have some laundry machines installed in the apt. If this does not work out I will more than likely find a place in Palo Alto, unfortunately I cant convince Ben its a good idea to live that close to Apple.
