A Leg Grows in C Minor

I'd like to give a shout-out to Gabe and Justin for always providing rousing entertainment, refreshing drinks, and a place to hang out and party. Whether it be 3 years ago or now. I first met Gabe and Justin courtesy of a Miss Susan Osborne, a long time ago. We hung out at their apartment almost every week one summer, drinking and playing games long into the night. They are two of the funniest people ever, and get Jimbo and Steph in there (along with Sue and I of course) and it's one good time. We stopped hanging out for awhile but I've hung out with them both twice in the past 2 months and it's been great fun. I would include pics, however they are all drunken weird pics and I don't know if either of the boys would appreciate them being on the site like that. Anyway, I just wanted to say thanks and we better hang out more before Justin gets another girlfriend and leaves everyone's lives...I mean....before I move to CA. (haha)

Here we go again... After the wedding we stayed for 3 days with the newlyweds and their awesome dogs, Chopper and Baza. (Chopper's a chocolate lab, Baz is a ridgeback) We spent sunday recovering from the wedding. On monday Lisa, Brook, Brook's sister Danielle, Andrew, and I took a day trip to San Francisco. It was barely an hour away so we figured we better go while we had the chance. Soon after we got there I had a nice view of Alcatraz: We didn't have time to take a tour on the island and through the prison, but I'd love to do that sometime. We really didn't know what to do in San Fran (any of us) so we mostly just walked around shopping (or pretending at Neiman Marcus) and I made everyone go to an aquarium (I used to want to be a marine biologist; I don't anymore but I still looooove fish) Anyway I thought this was a pretty cool picture (I have a ton of really good ones from the aquarium but this is just saving time and space): While we were in town we

In an effort to keep readers amused and entertained, I am mixing up the exaltations of California and Andrew's family with random other shit: 1. I miss and love Joe. I think if we somehow lose touch over the course of time, there will be no subsequent best friend as great as him. 2. I watch more cartoon tv (Aqua Teen, Family Guy, South Park) than regular tv 3. I've realized that sexuality, for me, is more about preference for a certain personality (or at least bedroom personality) of the partner than sex of the partner. I'd totally have sex with a girl if she was gonna do the things I've just recently realized I LOVE in bed. (that is, of course, if I wasn't with Mr. Andrew) Now this isn't the same for relationships. Just simple, dirty sex. 4. I think I have great instincts about things. If I get a random feeling about something, and I go with it, in the long run it's usually the right thing to do. I won't get into my whole "everything happens for a

So this is part 1, because I have little time, and much to say. We got into San Jose airport at about 10 pm (west coast time) on thursday the 4th. Lisa and Brook picked us up from the airport. Oh, for future reference: Lisa = Andrew's sister, marrying Brook Brook = software enginneer from New Zealand Kristin = Andrew's other sister, married to Rick Rick = funny guy from Orange County Sharon = Andrew's mom Jeff = Andrew's super cool younger brother Okay so Lisa and Brook picked us up in one of their 2 BMWs, and took us to the Hotel Valencia, where we stayed for 3 nights (we didn't stay in one place longer than 3 nights for the entire trip) This was our hotel room: We walked around on Santana Row for awhile, but both of us were really tired so we just went back upstairs and went to bed. The next morning I got to see Lisa and Brook's house, and for the first time, an orange tree: Everyone made fun of me for taking a picture of the orange tree but whatever, I'd

I go away on vacation and the whole comment system falls apart....jeesh. Anyway I don't know what's going on with the spam thing, Andrew says I should stop allowing anonymous comments but I really don't want to do that because I love non-spam comments from anyone and everyone. Grrrr. In other news, I am now down in Orange County. Aliso Viejo to be exact, near Laguna Beach. We are going to Disneyland and celebrity searching tomorrow. So far I've been to San Jose, San Francisco, Santa Cruz, Fresno, Yosemite, and down through L.A. to where I am now. Freeways in Southern C.A. are SO SCARY. I'm having a spectacular time though and don't worry, there WILL be pictures. Muhahahaha.

Well today is the day I will fulfill one dream of my life. To go to California. I will arrive in San Jose at about 10 pm tonight (their time), stay there for a few days for Andrew's sister's wedding, then head to Fresno to stay with his mama. Maybe throw a Yosemite in there, Santa Cruz boardwalk, and it should be a fun time. See you fuckers on August 16th :-)
