"it's too bad you're not into black girls."

that's the consensus at work. a majority of the transporters at work are black women ranging in age from 19-34 on my weekend shifts. apparently, the way i dress appeals to them. i have the look of a grown-ass man. and a good 75 percent of them mistook me for being hispanic. fuck that. in any case, im doing something right. now if only i can get the attention of the girls im trying to appeal to. tsk tsk.

on a semi-related note, this coming weekend might be my last weekend as a dispatcher. as part of the budget cuts in the hospital they are combining environmental services and the transport department. in doing so this eliminates the need for dispatchers for each department. they're effectively cutting down the number of dispatchers by half. as much as i love getting paid to do nothing, im going to give up my spot because there are others that need the job more so than i do. i know the other dispatchers in my group and i know they need the job and cannot be afford to be laid off. i was told i might be placed in another department or something or other cuz they want to retain me due to my awesome customer service skills and pleasant demeanor. we'll see i guess.

ive lost 20 pounds since the bet started with my friends danny and chris. ive lost more weight than both of them combined. danny all but gave up already and i think chris is starving himself in order to try and catch up. but there's only a week left and the weigh-in is on march 6th. so im pretty sure it's safe to notch this in the W column for me. i started at 215 and im now down to 195. 15 more lbs to go and ill be at my ideal weight for my height. needless to say i am going to relish the slaps coming their way. as a celebratory thing, we'll be going to a lounge in hoboken to see what the results can get for us. haha.

sportsfest volleyball is coming up mid-april and i have about a month and a half to train. i figure in that month i can drop the 15 lbs i need to shed which would help me out on the court. i'm also going to resume the workouts i did back in the summer for team hibachi that were specifically for volleyball. i need to get my vertical up and be able to spike the crap out of that ball. it worked for a bit when i was doing it and that wasn't consistent. i figure this'll be even better since i'm back on track for buff status. we'll see i guess. team hibachi's headed for a reunion. hahaha.

what time is it? game time huh!!!

laaame.
