Who needs sleep?

This whole staying up until all hours of the night thing is really starting to get pretty comfortable.  There was a point, not that long ago, where the idea of going to a midnight movie on a work night just seemed ridiculous.  Not that it mattered much, seeing as how I rarely stayed awake for the entire movie. 

 Overall I wasn't too terribly impressed by the new 007 movie but, it was well worth staying up late to go see.  

Not to contradict my earlier statement but, I should probably keep this brief so I can get some sleep.  I've got another big weekend ahead of me, with lots of The Office still left to be seen.  In fact, I think I might just go watch tonight's new episode before I fall asleep.

EDIT: "How great was it that they worked the word 'duped' into the movie?"

That's what she said

My night started off by going to dinner with my Grandparents, which is always exciting. Don't get me wrong, I love spending time with them but, I always end up feeling like I have to filter everything I do or say around them.  Anyways, that was just the dull intro to what quickly became a great night.  The Office has always been one of my favorite shows but, there's something exciting about watching it with a small hand full of people who mean the world to you. Especially, when it's people who are experiencing it for the first time. Long story short, one episode quickly turned into a twelve episode marathon that lasted til 5:00am.  The whole evening can be summed up in one word, EPIC!

We got duped!

It's time to put another fun-filled weekend to bed but, first here's a re-cap of how it went down.

Friday:

• Power outage at work, everyone got sent home early
• Got some drink at "Tap-X" that tasted like shit
• Tasty food at Sam Woo
• Destroyed Rock Band at the Kowalski house (ooh ah ah ah!)
  
• Ghost walk

Saturday:

• Santanas with Nathan and Justyn
• Super productive jam session 
• Fashion Valley (Nathan got duped)
• Justyn got himself a new Zune
• Got an iPod shuffle for $20
• Broke my straight edge with the G1 bartender
• Karaoke with Martin in the Jetta
• Santanas...AGAIN!

Sunday:

• Charger game at Kate's
• Nap time
• "Sushi Sunday"
• Iron Man at Flo's

Other than the fact that I saw my "best friend" KG way too much, I'd say it was a pretty epic weekend.

Run like the wind

First off, let me say that I think it's hilarious that this has basically turned into a "running blog".  That being said, let me tell you about tonight's run.  Tonight I ran with my new teammate, that John Mayer looking mother fucker we all know and love, Martin (Latin heart throb) Rivera....and Justyn came too.  It's so much easier to push yourself when you run with someone else, especially Martin. Every time I start to think I've had enough, I just think about all the shit I'm going to get for quitting, and find a way to suck it up.  It's moments like tonight that I really wish I hadn't smoked as much and or as long as I did but, that's in the past and part of the reason for wanting to get back into shape. There's something about the pain I feel in my legs the next morning that feels so good and makes me want to do it all over again. I've got a long way to go to even consider that marathon but, this is a nice little start.

Once you go black...

Barak Obama is set to become the 44th President of The United States and the first black one. I find it funny that the media is portraying this as a "land slide victory", when in reality if you look at the popular vote, it was only by a two percent margin.

I'm curious to see how Obama did locally in home sweet Santee.

Election Day

After four long years of waiting, it's finally here. Election Day! There seems to be far more buzz surrounding this election than normal, especially from young people. It's sad that it took an idiot president to get people to care but, whatever works. Hopefully everyone gets a chance to make it out to the polls today, regardless or who/what you're voting for. You may not care at the moment but, a lot can happen in four years and you might between now and then. It takes very little effort on your part and you don't have to vote for everything but, you should vote for something.


This is probably the closest thing to a political post I will ever do.


P.S. Take down all the proposition signs, it just looks trashy.

The wait is over

It wasn't supposed to be here until November 10th but, my G1 has arrived.  So far it's a pretty neat little device, it has it's bugs but, that's to be expected with new technology. 

Halloween was nothing short of amazing.  We got it started with the "Woo Woo" , thanks to the G1.  That pretty much set the tone for the night.  People got a little too drunk,  some lost their keys, while others just fell asleep in public.  All in all, a great night.  

That being said, I feel like it's time to cut back on the excessive drinking and start making healthier decisions.  I'm not sure if I'll be running the Rock 'n' Roll Marathon or not but, it'd be nice to be in good enough shape to attempt it and not have it seem laughable. 

Oh yeah, thank you Bell family for the free dinner at the Barona buffet... so good.
