Last Weekend

Well we didn’t end up getting to Oktoberfest.  After eating at Sean’s it was about 9:10 when we got to the place and there was a huge line.  We waited for about 30 minutes and maybe was able to move about halfway through the line.  We got tired of waiting so we decided to go to another place in Huntington Beach called Martini Blues.  They had some comedy going on so we watched that, unfortunately it was the tail end of the show and the waitress was terrible, so we ended up leaving there quickly after the comedy finished up and headed to another place called the Surf City Roadhouse.  Sean and I shot pool while the girls talked.  We hung out there till about 1:30 and then since most of us will still awake we went over to Harbor House Cafe and had some late night breakfast.  After that we called it a night and Kelly and I tried our best to sleep in but I only got about 3 1/2 hours of sleep, yet felt wide awake once I gave up on sleeping.  Kelly didn’t feel real well after a night of 7 drinks so we just laid low for a bit and then headed to a couple Halloween places to see about getting stuff for costumes this Halloween.  After doing that we came back home and just vegged out the rest of the night.  I wasn’t feeling the best due to coming down with a head cold, that I’m still fighting with today (or maybe it’s allergies).

More Racquetball Madness!

So last night after Kelly got home from work we headed to the gym and played more racquetball.  We played just over an hour, she’s still learning but she’s improving.  When we were first got there my friend Paul and I talked for a bit and set up to play racquetball this morning.  So I went to the gym again this morning and played more RB with Paul.  We played for a good 50 minutes again.  I’m starting to get my wind back so that’s good, he gave me a good work out but when it was all said and done I was the winner, but he’s also still learning.  More of his racquetball experience is playing some girls at the gym and none of them really play.  But I don’t mind helping people learn to play, I’ve done it a lot in the past and it’s one of the things that helps the sport along.  So now I’m exhausted!  Rest of the day I’m just going to relax and do some laundry before heading over to the Dog Grooming shop and helping Kelly clean up and close.  Tonight we are going over to Sean’s for some brats and then we are all heading over to Oktoberfest over at Old World Village in Huntington Beach.  Then tomorrow Kelly mentioned something about going to the Orange County Auto Show, so we’ll probably end up there for a couple hours.

Bud Light Presents, “Real Men of Genius” (Reaaaaal Men Of Genius)

Bud Light Presents, “Real Men of Genius” (Reaaaaal Men Of Genius)

Today we salute you, Mr. Delusional Notre Dame Fan. (Mr. Delusional Notre Dame Faaaaaan!) Season after season, year after year, you try to justify your absurdly high preseason ranking. (Clutching at straws!) You scramble to make futile attempts at damage control when the Irish lose to a grossly inferior opponent (How’d Navy score fifty fouuuuuur?) Inevitably, you’ll bring up the past, and boast of National Championships won 40 years before you were born. (Those were the daaaaaays!) You will point out that you have more wins than any other program as though that is relevant to the current season. (Been playing since the 1870s!) Go on, ignore that home loss to your archrivals in the regular season finale and continue to believe that you’ll defeat your bowl opponent with striking ease. (We’ll win by thirteeeeeeey!) So crack open an ice cold Bud Light, oh Emperor of Excuses, and take comfort knowing that when you don’t finish in the top 25, you’ll be back to number three when the preseason polls come out next year. (Mr.Delusional Notre Dame Fan!)

Just a test post with my Portable Windows Live Writer on my flash drive.  Want to make sure this works when I’m at work, since I can’t get Live Writer installed at work!  Also tes

Racquetball!

So, on Tuesday Kelly and I got a gym membership to LA Fitness.  I’ve had memberships with LA Fitness twice in the past but due to life getting busy I had let my last membership expire (this was a couple months before meeting Kelly).  Well we got our membership and we are going to push each other to make sure we go 3-4 times a week.  The reason I keep coming back to LA Fitness is that they are one of the only gyms that still cater to racquetball, and those of you that have known me long enough know that it’s one of my favorite sports to play.  So last night Kelly and I went to the gym next to the Block of Orange and we worked on teaching her how to play racquetball.  She has never played racquetball ever but she has some experience with playing tennis.  I was very impressed at how well she did for never playing before, she did a very good job tracking the ball and hitting it to the wall, something that I find people new to the sport have difficulty with.  I’ve let people new to the sport play with me on numerous occasions so I knew what to expect.  She has always said she isn’t really athletic but she has real good coordination, it’s probably from those years of cheerleading in high school!

Happy National Taco Day!

Everyone it’s national Taco DAY!  That means you need to eat tacos today and celebrate one of the best Mexican food items on this planet.  Not quite as good as a burrito, but those aren’t really Mexican anyway!
