Joel, welcome back to the fold, we have missed you. The Lord has left the 99 and gone after the lone, lost blogger, kill the fatted calf. Congrats to Lars on UK and Justin for Texas, nice wins. Props to me as well cause the ole Tar Heels stuck it to D(p)uke. I hate D(p)uke.
I don’t have much time to spare to write, but here goes. Had another epic weekend. Friday afternoon I was out of gas at work and said ta heck with it and left a bit early and got a short surf session in at OB, it felt so good to be in the sun and in the ocean, as usual. I have no idea what I did Friday night, just can’t remember at the moment. Saturday was a good day, got up to watch UK and Texas, then Tracey kidnapped me. She had told me she had a surprise for me this weekend. So she drove us up to Encinitas to a cool Spanish style hotel for the night. I got to go to Lou’s records, a great Indie record store, ala Mad Hatter. I had forgotten, but by chance Special Goodness were playing a free show outside the store (Pat Wilson, the drummer for Weezer’s side project, along with the ex-drummer of Rocket From the Crypt). I got there after there last song ended, but no big deal cause I’m not really into them anyway, but cool to see Pat just standing on the side of highway 101 talking to kids. Anyway, picked up four cds, The Eyeliners (chick punk), the newest Reggie and Full Effect (it kinda sucks), an old Lawrence Arms cd (more punk) and the latest Squad 5-0 cd, which I love. Then we went to the beach and watched the sun set, it was wonderful. Then we went to a cool Italian place (I got pizza, no brainer). Sunday morning we got some Starbucks and went back to the ocean to watch the surfers (Mary, we were at the campground where we camped last summer). We saw some Dolphins and Whales as well. I also saw the guitarist from Blink 182, Tom, walking by with his wife and baby, funny and strange to see famous people just walking around. We then spent the rest of the day shopping at many different locations. We ended up at Canes bar and grill on the roof overlooking Mission Beach having a great dinner and being content with life. It was an unbelievably restful weekend that I needed very much due to work stress. Thanks Tracey for getting me out of my stress, you’re the best ever.
Anyway, this is going to be a very long week for me, at least ten hours a day, prolly 12. But I have a great goal in sight. Next Friday Larson, AStevens and Amcan are heading down to SD for surfing and a trip to Joshua Tree National Park for some camping. Glad to hear my parents are doing well in Chowchilla land, don’t mention Sonic again or I will lose my mind.
