Good News: My Leg Is Getting Better!

Yes, the Doctor told me this morning that my leg is getting better and the swelling has gone way down. I probably have to see his a few more times. I can walk a little now, but I try to stay off it. It'll heal better if you let it rest.



Now, here the hard part, I'll been asked to go diving tomorrow. There's a storm coming in tonight.

Checking Out YouTube For Some Oldies Songs

As I sit here waiting for the World Series, which is postponed again, until wednesday night.

I started to think about all the oldies songs in my life from the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, 2000's.

I went to youtube.com to see what I can bring up. and I was amazed by all the songs that are available. From live, audio, to homemade, it's was bring back the old memories. Man, This is the bomb!

I'm going to make a list of songs that are my favorites, which is too much to think of, or remember. That's why I love my Ipods, which can hold thousands of songs at a touch of my finger instantly. That is some machinery.

Monday: Stay Home To Watch The World Series

For lunch and dinner, I ate the chicken and pork, which I grilled on my "George Foreman's grill," I was good, with all the seasonings, that I put on it. It's sooooo cheap to eat at home.

Of course, I can eat outside, even cheaper than eating at home, with better foods.



I declined to watch the movie last night, to watch the World Series. Unfortunate, the game was suspended in the 6 inning, unitl Tuesday night. They couldn't continue, b/c they have an obligation to the adveristers to continue it on prime time. The game suspensed around 1am EDT.

Sunday: Just Resting and Watching The Tube.

Just stay home to rest my leg, and let it heal. Watched football & baseball all day. Got a call from my roommate, Tom, who told me that there's crutches on CL. He gave me the number, and I called.

Called up with the woman with the crutches, and she lefted the crutches at her doorway. I picked up, and they are perfect for me to use. I felt like they are almost brand new. These are better than the wood crutches, that I have.

Anway, the Phillies won, so they're up 3-1. Yeah, Go Phillies!!!

Also, The Niners lost. What a pitiful game they played. They really need to revamp.

Last Week

What have I been doing lately, being injured?



Being Bored, watching T.V., Suffering in pain and wondering when I'm going to be in full strength, visiting the chinese doctor, and see mom!



This is not what Rob had in mind. Rob is Bbbboooooooorrrrreeeeddd!!!

Funny About My Injury

Everyone, that know me, keep asking me what happened? I told some, but I got tired of telling them about the freak accident.

I told them to read my blog about it. That's the easiest way to answer it, without sound like a broken record. lol

Way to go, Rob! ; )

World Series Tonight! Phillies Vs Rays

That's right! I'm taking the World Series, and being World Serious about this, over a party that I was told to go, if I wanted to go. I really don't want to dress up for this at all.

Anyway, I love baseball! I used to love it more, but somehow I don't love it too much anymore. Maybe turned off, b/c of the spoiled players and the attitudes? Or maybe, just bored with it?

Party later? We'll see, lol ; )

Btw, I like the Phillies, even though the Rays are having an amazing season of from last place last year to first place this year. You sort of want to root for the underdogs. Like the Superbowl, I just want to see some good baseball being played with the best teams in the majors.

Today: Decided To Stay In For Awhile

Am: Did what I was suppose to do, Get parking at 9am, which worked out perfectly. Dr told me, that my leg is improving and the swelling is going down. Maybe, be able to go diving this weekend, lol ; ) ? That would be a BLAST!. if possible?

11am, went shopping at Food Co. Wow, they have some great deals- Chicken Breast, and Pork loin chops for 98 ct. a pound. That's a DEAL!

Oh, I forgot to write on my other posting this week. Although, I'm injured. I still try to make it to see good O'd Mom. The woman I love forever!!! Everyday, if possible, b/c I do get very busy at some time, and cannot make it.

1:45pm, I baked the chicken and pork. And ate it with rice. I was good. Maybe tomorrow, I'm going to make Chicken and pork Adobo. It's good, but don't eat too much of it. It's bad for you, if you do.

1/2 Cup of Soy Sauce,
1/4 cup of Vinigar
Some whole peppers
3-4 Clove Of Garlic
A couple of Bay Leaves,

Maybe some lemon????

Sorry folks, I usually don't use sugar or salt in almost all my food. It may be flat to you, but it's good for me and my health. People, who knows me, knows that I do that. If I cook for others then I do use sugar and salt to please them.

Tuesday: Invited To A Party, But Declined, : (

Went to see the Dr. this afternoon, b/c I couldn't get a parking space in Chinatown, which is never easy! Got to go in the morning after 9am, which is no parking between 7-9am. That's how you do it.

I went to see another movie- "Sex Drive." Not bad, for a teenage movie. Silly as always! I liked it, b/c I'm silly at time, ; ).

Just Being Rob!!!

Monday: Had My Leg Worked On, and Went To A Free Movie

Besides, I went to see the Chinese doctor, whom worked on my leg. Man, It still hurts. It's going to take about 2 weeks to 6 weeks to just be walking right. My right knee is totally swollen. I mean my knee almost looked like a balloon.

I didn't want to just sit around, so I went to a movie. "Pride and Glory" was showing at Century 9. I was good, but a little too long. 2:45 was the time, I think. Should do ok at the box office this week.

Got In An Auto Accident, This Late Evening

Am I glad this week is over, b/c I got in an auto accident around 6:40pm this evening.

I was drive in the left hand lane in Chinatown, when I heard a crunch noise. I realized that I got in a accident with a big truck owned by Golden Gate Disposal. The driver told me that he didn't see me, and wasn't thinking. He was probably distracted by the accident in front of us. The ambulance was double parked in front of us, and I think they hit this car's mirror, which was on the floor.

Anyway, I had a bad week overall!

Well, that's life! Life goes up and down though life, ; )

Spend The Day- Looking For Parking Space, Watching Football, and Baseball.

I spend the day waiting for a parking space in Chinatown. I waited around one and half hours, for the parking space and didn't get the space I wanted, so I didn't get to see my doctor.

Went to 2 receptions, and then had dinner with Ken.

I did spend my day watching our local team the 49ers losing, this morning, and in the evening watching the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, win their first American League Pennant. What was amazing is last year, Tampa Bay, was in last place, and more of their history, they were a last place team, and finally they turned it all around and is going to the World Series against the Philadelphia Phillies.

Now, I'm playing catch up with my blog. Writing about my week.

Saturday: Went To See The Doctor

Actually, I went to see a Chinese Doctor. The reason is that my friend, Raymond told me about what happened to him. He told me that 3 doctors recommended surgery for his shoulder, which he could not lift up his right arm. He went to a Chinese doctor, and he was about to use his arm on that same day.

He recommended that I see a Chinese doctor, and I did.

The doctor used oil, massage, pressure points, and chinese medicine on my knee. Btw, I suspect it's a ALC on my knee. Hopefully, it's not too serious. My knee is swollen now and difficult to twist or move sometimes.

Friday Night: Stupid Me, Went To Some Receptions

Yes, Dummy Me, Went to some parties in pain. Hoping, and limping around a the reception in USF, Art gallery on Harrison St.

I wanted to get drunk and just forget about today. Overall, it was a rough, and tough day for me.

So much for Rob : (

Friday: Had A Freak Accident!

I went diving on Friday, got my limit. As I was swimming back, I reached the shore about knee high, when something hit me on back of my right knee. It was a big log, which pinned my right knee down. I screamed with pain, and saw the log on my leg. I thought that I broke my leg. The waves came in and lifted the log up and away from my leg. I laid there for a while, and in pain, hoping that I can walk back to the car. As I wrote my limit on my AB card, I try to walk, and made it back to the car.

Will see a doctor tomorrow.

Rob, may be out for a while!

Thursday: Wine Tasting At Jack London Square In Oakland

Yes, I went to Oakland for this event. All types of wines and spirits along with foods- Turkey breast, rump roast beef, pastas, fajitas, fruits.

It's better than I listed it to be. I'll be back next year, b/c it's worth it!

Tuesday- Watch A Movie- Quarantine

Don't waste your time with this movie! If you're tired of "Blair Witch Project" or "Cloverfield," then you wouldn't like Quarantine. Same style of filming, but a little better and updated. Video Camera moving Bullshit. If you like that, go see the movie. Kind of irritating.

Hated all 3 movies, and waste of time and money. Maybe DVD, if you have a lot of free time.

I Thought This Is The Song I Live By?

You want to know what is a great song and singer,
is when they can sing any song and you can feel it.

I feel that Marvin Gaye, Luther Vandross are great singers, b/c they can sing anything. Don't get me wrong, the other singers are great too, but these guys are the tops!!!


This is my Song, b/c it was dedicated by the one I love, RoseM. for us. When I think about, or heard this song, it's very touching to me, and I'm a guy!

Actually, this song kind of keep me in line, and this woman keep me in line. Man, I really love this woman!!!

I thought this was the song I would live by, but...............................................

Artist: Luther Vandross Song: I'd Rather

Lyrics

I thought sometime alone
was what we really needed
you said this time would hurt more than it helps
but I couldn't see thatI thought it was the end
of a beautiful story and so I left the one I loved at home to be alone(alone)
and I tried to find out if this one thing is true
that I'm nothing without you
I know better now
and I've had a change of heart

I'd rather have bad times with you, than good times with someone else
I'd rather be beside you in a storm, than safe and warm by myself
I'd rather have hard times together, than to have it easy apart
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
whoo-oo-oo-oo yeah

And then I met someone and thought she could replace you
we got a long just fine we wasted time because she was not you
we had a lot of fun though we knew we were faking
love was not impressed with our connection they were all lies,
all lies so I'm here cause I found this one thing is true
that I'm nothing without you
I know better now and I've had a change of heart

I'd rather have bad times with you,
than good times with someone else
I'd rather be beside you in a storm,
than safe and warm by myself
I'd rather have hard times together,
than to have it easy apart
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
who holds my heart

I can't blame you if you turn away from me, like I've done you,
I can only prove the things I say with time,
please be mine,

I'd rather have bad times with(please be mine) you,
than good times with someone else(I know)
I'd rather be beside you in a storm(anytime),
than safe and warm by myself(so sure baby)
I'd rather have hard times together,
than to have it easy apart
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart(my heart)

I'd rather have bad times with you(surely),
than good times with someone else(surely)
I'd rather be beside you in a storm(oh yeah),
than safe and warm by myself(all by myself)
I'd rather have hard times together,
than to have it easy apart(you know it)
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart

I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
I'd rather have the one who holds my heart
whoooo..... who holds my heart


RoseM don't think so!

My Plans With RoseM

I thought I was going to marry this woman, but..........................................

Something happened. I don't know?

I thought that we would be living half the time in the States, and half the other overseas.

When she's in the States, she's going to be a Super Maid, Just joking! lol : ), I joke about that all the time.
No, she'll be doing something in the real estate field. She told me that she'd planned to take some classes on it.

It would be up to her, if she wants to work. I told her that everyone in the States works, if not, they have game! To her, she thinks everyone has time to fool around, but I told her that everyone is busy, one way or the other.

As For Rob,

Rob, has to be more serious about life, or doesn't he??? Can Rob actually do that??? If he did, Rob, just wouldn't be Rob??? Maybe.................................................???

What Is A Girlfriend?

I told my friend, Jerry about how my girlfriend treats me, and his respond us: "That's not a girlfriend!" A girlfriend is someone that should cherish you, as you cherish her. She needs to treat the boyfriend, like the way her wants to be treated.

To make any relationship work, you need 3 things:


Respect
Trust
Communication

You can add more things, if you like. I'm willing to listen to anything that makes sense.

Maybe, things are different from the girls overseas, when money, makes the woman ticks! if you don't have it, you need to go!

Tonight is The Chinese Double 10

This is the Chinese Nationals Indenpendent Day! October 10,. Too bad, we missed the parade, which was on the 4th of October. b/c there were too many things going on. Maybe next year?

Rose's Gone Mad???

Rose is taking this too far. She doesn't know, SHIT!!! When I ask her What did I do? She just says you know what you did. REALLY, I can't read mind. If I did, things wouldn't be like this.She thinks that she's a mindreader, and thinks that she has reality dreams, that she believes. I told her You can dream of things you want to only believe. I told her I don't do the things, that she accusing me of doing. I bet she wouldn't like it, if I did that to her. I don't want to scoop to that level.

Funny, I'm accused of trying to do bad things, making strategies, All against Rose and her family. Me, I'm ??????????????? Very Puzzled???? Why is it like that????? What did I do??? Go to Thailand? Is that enough to cause this? Or is this just the attitude of her? She was invited, but doesn't want me to visit my friend, who is really only a friend. My friend, just had a baby. Wow, can't even visit a friend so far away. This is really petty!

I'm friends with many people, and I'm still friends with most of them, I hope? lol

Even Ex's, I can be ok with them. I don't have a problem with talking and saying "Hi" to them.

I believe in a positive approach, and having positive people around me. I'm starting to eliminate the negative people around me, b/c they are too pessimistic toward things and life.

I mean C'mom, Dude or people, live your life! Learn to enjoy it. We only live one in this lifetime, so live to the fullest!!!

Yesterday- Ok, Lunch to Great Dinner

Went to a 2.0 luncheon, which consist of Sandwiches of 5 different kind (roast beef, chicken, turkey, veggie, combo), Kettle potatoes chips, drinks (Not Alcohol) and candies. All the sandwiches are from Boudin. They make good sandwiches. Overall the lunch was bad. Ok, is the right word, : )

Dinner was some thing else. There was live entertainment along with the drinks and alcohols offered. What they had was:

International & Domestic Cheeses

Carving: Roast Beef Tenderloin, Spiced Rubbed Veal Loin

Fresh Seafood at Fisherman's Wharf

Chilled Prawns, Crab Claws & Scallops
Tartare of Salmon, Crab and Ahi

Delicious Tastes of North Beach

Penne & Tortellini Pastas
With Sun Dried Tomatoes, Fresh Basil
and Calamata Olive Pesto

Sweets At Ghirardelli Square

Petite Fours, Tea Cookkies & Fruit Tartlets

There was other foods, that were good, but not mentioned.


This was held by a group trying to sell their condos at price ranges: 230K-1M+. Their mortgage would be around 2,400-4K+ , not including the HOA.

So, that's the reason for all the great foods in this party. If they can sell 1 condo on that day, it would be worth throwing this party.


Oh, Btw, both event was FREE!

LoveFest

Cancelled diving today.

I spend my time going to the Library to do some research on some information on properties.

Before I went to the library, the Lovefest parade started around 1pm and lasted until 1:45pm. After that I went to the library and was there until 3:30pm. Walked around until 4:30pm, then went to visit my mom in the nursing home.

I got back to the Lovefest at 6:30pm, and thinking that it's going to end soon. I walked around and looked at people having a good time, drinking, eating and dancing. Almost everybody was dancing, even a square like me, was doing a little dancing by myself. I walked around to all the dancing areas, which is around 6 blocks, with 23 Djs playing their records, from their stages.

From all the wild partiers to the custom-build designer trucks, dancers, DJs, musics, and the people.

I realized that if it wasn't done in San Francisco, it may be a no go in any other places.

It's just San Francisco being San Francisco!

Fixing The Plumbling Today, Hopefully!

For today, I'm going to try to fix the main sewer pipe, which is cracked. I know, I know, all my friends, told me to hire someone. Anyway, I did, but I'm going to help, b/c I want to learn how to do it, so one has to pay first, to learn something from a professional. That's cool! That's how it is, isn't it? You went to school for training, right people?

In this kind of scenerio, You have to hire a professional. You don't want to Fuck it Up! If you can fix it on time. All hell can break loose. Then the shit will really hit the fan, and you're in big trouble! So, Hire a Professional for major plumbing, unless you don't mind doing it in your own home, which you can take your time, not when you're managing a place. Don't be a Dumbshit!

You got to delegate, Rob!

Saw "Blindiness" Last Night

I went to a free screening on "Blindiness." Really didn't like the movie at all, but I did learned something from the movie. That your eyes are precious, so don't lose it.

The movie was boring, and it really, really dragged. George (one of the regular movies goers), gives it a 1 1/2, stars. He, also mentioned that some people told him that the book was very good. My opinion, the movie really SUCKS! Let see what the critics have to say about it, today.

Sept 30, (Tuesday), Free Movie & Pizza Party

On Tuesday, I went to watch a movie, which I called it "The Robert Uy's (Young), Movie, b/c of the title: "How to Lose Friends, and Alienate People!" The reason is I have never seen a person lose soooooo many friends in a 7 years span, and blamed every one of them. I mean it's soooo bad, that he's looking for ways to screw these lost friends, b/c he feels that they somehow cheated him.

Anyway, the movie is a different story, only the title is about Robert Uy. The movie is a different type of humor. Simon Pegg is an Brit, who made about 3 films that I seen, and is making his way to the American movie market. Will he make it? Don't know, only time will tell. Mr. Bean (Rowan Atkinson ) didn't last too long, but I noticed that he's a big hit internationally. He, even makes me laugh, with his silent, humor and rubber faces motion. Way to go, Rowan!

After the movie, which I was asked a little interview by a reporter with a mic. I told her that it's a different kind of humor. Either you like it, or you don't.

I was told of this 20 year anniversary celebration going on at Dino's on Fillmore and California from 6pm to 11pm. The person that told me and I asked another said that it was probably over by now, which was around close to 9:30pm. I took my chances and went there anyway. Wow, was I luck, as I founded a parking space right on the corner 45 degree across from the party. There was still people there. So, I checked it out. They were still serving pizzas and drinks. They told me that the party will end at 10:30pm.

I ate 4 slices of pizza (Mushroom and pepperoni), and drank white wine and water, but the alcohols are done, except the beers, which everyone kept drinking and drinking! What a party at Dino's! For a neighborhood street party, this is considered very, very good!

Take care, until next time!

Free is always good, but not all the time!

What's Happening This Weekend With Rob?

Saturday, Is, of course, Diving Day, Yes, yes, yes!

Afterward, hopefully I'll come back early and go to the San Francisco Lovefest, which was really fun last year! There was about 5-6 stage with DJ playing different kind of musics. Whichever you like- Hip hop, trance, disco, ................... You name it, that have it.

Also around 12 or 1pm, there's a Lovefest parada marching on Market Street all the way to Civic Center/City Hall area to begin the party!

Hope to see you there! IT WILL BE FUN!!! Guarantee!!! ; )

Rob
