I ALWAYS feel good on full moon days! Can't explain it.
21 June 2010
Finally! The man had everyone down this weekend though, so we gotta redeem. When are we going to the fair? And when's the pool gonna be done? Slacking...
Also, huge series this week against Tampa Bay. True Test. Luckily they're off today while I go to church after work. Otherwise, I'm gonna be glued the rest of the week.
Oh and I joined Lockerz so I can get a Wii cheap. It's actually fairly legit, so if I can invite you let me know. Even if you don't want to do it, I'll get points.

I forgot to pay my rent last week, mostly because it's the only thing that I don't pay online. So I have to go through the hassle of getting a cashier's check from the bank and paying a $35 dollar late fee. Which I did. Then last night, there's a note on my door about how to sign up for online bill pay. WTF?

Every current year seems so crappy. Then I miss it like crazy. 2009 was the worst yet. I miss it so much...
03 June 2010
By the way, this last weekend was awesome and we pretty much accomplished everything we set out to do. Kind of exhausting though, so I'm looking forward to relaxing this weekend, making some fried rice, watching the Padres beat the Phillies and starting season 02 of Lost. Yup, that's how lame I am.

Finally...

2. Started watching Lost. Am I late?
3. Played guitar again. Rusty.
4. Able to download music and TV shows again. I'm missing out on too much, that new Minus The Bear album sounds great.
5. My TV and internet are all setup. Not watching the game on it tonight though (see 1).
24 May 2010
Just never seems to be a good Sunday night. Strangely, I think I miss my old life. Never thought I would.
18 May 2010

12 May 2010
By the way, here's the new stuff that's on its way to my place right now. You may think the red border on the TV is weird, but I kind of like it. It's unique. And the speakers aren't the greatest set-up, but I went for convenience and just got it at Best Buy. Can't wait to get it all set up:
Samsung LN46A650
Sony 450W 5.1-Ch. A/V Home Theater Receiver
2x Polk Audio-Dual 5-1/4" 2-Way Floor Speakers
Polk Audio-5-1/4" Center-Channel Speaker
Polk Audio-10" 200W Powered Subwoofer
Polk Audio-5-1/4" Bookshelf Speakers (Pair)
11 May 2010
Still no word on my missing $40. Why did I lose it? I have no idea how it happened but I'm still waiting on this Wells Fargo claim to at least shed some light on what happened, even if I don't get the money back. I think I had a dream last night that I found it actually; it was dirty and in an unlikely place. If only I could remember where that was I would check in real life.

*POSTPONED*
Party at my new place this Saturday, 10:00 PM.
8727 Fletcher Pkwy. #558
30 April 2010
Another big win for the Padres last night...April's been a blast so far. I was at my place last night listening to the game with MLB Gameday Audio when I finally realized how much better it would be to watch the games on TV. Since we hadn't had Cox at home for about a year and I still don't have it at my place, it's been a REALLY long time since I've watched a game outside of a bar or restaurant. Man it's gonna be nice.
If all goes well, I could get all the basics for my living room this weekend. I think I know which entertainment center and couch I want, and I may even check out some new TVs.
I already got this awesome bar table and bar stools so we can drink good beer. It's actually a pretty sweet setup if I do say so myself.

Work was long on Thursday in anticipation for the weekend at Coachella. After filling our coolers with ice and our stomachs with one last burrito (and ice cream), we hit the road for Indio. We took the 79, which was a little too windy for our liking but probably steered us away from some heavy traffic. However, it wouldn't be long before we finally caught up to it:
After we set up our own camp that night, we got a shot of the vast space littered with tents:
We spent most of the days getting free shit, checking out new music and trying to stay cool and hydrated. First big act on Friday was Them Crooked Vultures, followed by Jay Z. Both really good:
The Legend:
Jay Z:
Saturday, RX Bandits:
I had to suffer through Faith No More and the beginning of Muse's act as the crowd got more and more tight. Too bad my shitty G1 camera doesn't do the spot justice:
Sunday, Yo Gabba Gabba!
Wet T-Shirt Dance Stage:
Julian Casablancas:
Thom Yorke:
Gorillaz:
Overall, a pretty good weekend. The crowds were enormous and there were too many druggies, but we survived and saw some pretty good stuff.
