Meow!

I heart Cat Power in general and now that I got my hands on her new album, Jukebos, I heart her even more. Listening to her makes me feel good. I definitely go thru spurts when it comes to music, in and out of certain people, but this is one artist that I consistently love all the time.
I don't think too many folks are out there reading this but if you are -- and you want to comment, tell me who some of your favorite musical artists are right now.

Smile

Sometimes you just have to smile. This picture makes me smile everytime I see it. Hope it makes you smile too.

Carmel 2007

On this very cold night in January, as I try my hardest to keep my core body temperature above freezing, I am reminded of how nice and warm it was on our trip to Carmel, CA this past summer. It was great. Perfect temperatures both day and night. Here are a few great pics from that long weekend getaway.


This is us at sunset down at the beach

The Mystery Spot was very cool. I highly recommend it if you ever find yourself driving from the San Jose Airport to Carmel on highway 101.

Again, stopping along the way to Carmel on the coast. Amazed as we watch kite surfers.

Here is a video of this really cool rainbow jellyfish we saw at the Monterey Aquarium

It was a good weekend



This weekend was great. I saw a bunch of movies, some good and some not so good - Cloverfield, I'm talking to you.
Here is the good, the bad and the ugly from the weekend
The Good
-3:10 to Yuma
-spending time at the SAM sculpture park (pictured)
-beating Zuma again
-having a loss at fat camp (aka weight watchers)
-finally seeing Juno
The Bad
-the fact that I watched these many movies this weekend
-Richie not doing so well at poker
The Ugly
-Cloverfield
-Residen Evil: Extinction
Overall, good to see I have more things under the good list so that makes for a good weekend I reckon.

The Tube

I was fortunate enough to boondoggle on a trip to London with my best friends Emily and Nathan about a year ago. We had a great time. We saw tons of stuff. Not nearly everything, but still, tons for only being there 5 days.

On one of our adventures on the subway, or as the local limies say, "The Tube", I found myself smashed like a sardine at the back of the train.

Next to me was this guy that wasn't the most friendly of guys. This picture cracks me up because I was the one that was so not wanting to be there, and here is this guy that has the balls to give me a dirty look for being so close to him. Jeez.

As I always do, I powered thru it with a smile as seen below in this picture.

Not sure about this blogging thing


Okay, so here I am posting my first blog and I'm not quite sure about this.

Probably won't post much.

Probably will loose interest too.

I'm not that exciting of a person to warrant a daily blog posting so we'll see.
