Adding to the annals of Embarrassing Christina Moments, I fell on my face at work the other day - onto soapy-dirty-mop-water-covered floor. Yes, I was wearing a white shirt that was no longer completely dry nor white afterward. And yes, after I got back up, I fell down again, requiring the aid of some Mexican guy to haul me up and brace me out of the back room.

Did you know that you can develop a nice, big bump on your chin? I sort of assumed a chin would just bruise, but no, I had a huuuge bump slightly to the left on my chin only seconds after impact. It looked great! Really made a statement! Mainly an "I have half of Jay Leno's butt chin" statement.

Fortunately, the bump has receded, leaving a lovely bruise. Now it merely looks as if I spilled food or ink on my chin and have forgotten to wipe. Either that or, as David says, "It looks like you have a Korean boyfriend." Yes, good job alienating the Koreans, buddy. :D

Koreans are my friends. Two of my closest friends from Stanford are Korean; funny since I barely had any Korean friends in high school. Yes, Bea and Michelle, you two are so very cool. And weird. Why else would you be my friends?

I am also writing this in an extreme state of discomfort. I ate way too much tonight. Oh good lord, my stomach wants to kill me. But such good Vietnamese food! Fish sauce and barbecued pork! Oh bliss.

You know what else is delicious? Mojitos at Havana in Walnut Creek. Yum!

This has been a very disjointed message from Christina.

"Temptation Waits" -Garbage

i'll tell you something
i am a wolf but
i like to wear sheep's clothing

i am a bonfire
i am a vampire
i'm waiting for my moment

you come on like a drug
i just can't get enough
i'm like an addict coming at you for a little more
and there's so much at stake
i can't afford to waste
i never needed anybody like this before

i'll tell you something
i am a demon
some say my biggest weakness
i have my reasons
call it my defense
be careful what you're wishing

you come on like a drug
i just can't get enough
i'm like an addict coming at you for a little more
and there's so much at stake
i can't afford to waste
i never needed anybody like this before

you are a secret
i need possession
i like to keep you guessing

you come on like a drug
i just can't get enough
i'm like an addict coming at you for a little more
and there's so much at stake
i can't afford to waste
i never needed anybody like this before

when i'm not sure what i'm living for
(when i'm not sure who i am)
when i'm not sure what i'm looking for...
