just this afternoon, i heard from my yahoo! groups for devcomsoc, that one of our sisses committed suicide yesterday at age 18. my condolences to her family.

i wonder what would drive someone, especially someone that age with her whole life ahead of her, to do such a thing? i guess we'll never really know. it came as a surprise to most, so i guess it wasn't obvious that something was seriously bothering her.

its kinda morbid, but i've touched on the idea before. i'm not depressed enough to commit it, though. i'm too much of a coward too. heh.

on a happier note, jean and i finally put up the shower caddy up in her bathroom. it took as a week to do it, 'coz the rod was too long to begin with. so we had it shortened, and then found out that we needed to shorten another part of it. thanks for the help derek!

so its halloween today. we didn't get any trick-or-treaters. prolly 'coz the lights at the front of the house were off. well, we didn't have candy to give out anyway, so i guess its ok.

we were vegas for last halloween. has it been a year already? its crazy isn't it? how time flies. it was fun spending it there. a lot of ppl were in costume. we saw a bunch of bulky guys dressed as hooters' girls, a girl in bjork's dead swan outfit, and a couple in full matrix get up. now those were cool. i've never dressed up for halloween. but the next time we're in vegas at that time, i know exactly what i'm wearing. i'm gonna be one of the serving girls, or a dealer, in the casino. wouldn't that be funny?

we didn't do anything this year. well, there was norm's annual halloween party, but i don't really feel like partying. i haven't felt like partying in a while now actually. i just want to hang out in a relaxed environment, you getz? i think i'm getting too old for that type of scene.

so anyway, we didn't go. had we gone and dressed up, i would've been a target employee. that's easy enough.

daylight savings time adjustment today too. we fall back an hour. which means it gets dark earlier. it was pitch already at 5:30p. its gonna make me feel even more lazy now.

work again tomorrow. its november already. sheesh.
