Feel Good Hit of the Summer


If this girl wasn't 3000 miles away most time of the year, I bet my life would be filled with way more fun.

The Dodgers snag the W (10-7), and we get to sit next to none other than Dom Kennedy and K Town. Cookies from Diddy Riese afterward made the night only sweeter.

Loves Again

Adventures in the Land of Disney 9/16/08


Ater weeks of deliberation, Natalie and I finally decided to get annual passes for Disneyland. $268 and miles of walking later, they prove to be pretty smart investments.


Of course, the day had to start off with the best ride. Even though its almost 20 years old, I always get hyped when you make that wrong left and get to fight TIE Fighters in a Death Star Trench.
Random Question: If Star Wars took place "a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away," why is it in Tomorrowland?
Random Fact: Paul Reubens is the voice of RX-D4.
As we were walking into DCA, some random lady looked at Nat's tee and said
"OMG...where did you get your shirt from?"


She told her where she copped, but the lady had no clue as to even what Urban Outfitters was. So, we asked where she lived.
"Oh, I'm from Canada"

I guess even old white women from the Great White North know what time it is.

No letter D in California. I kinda had to improvise.
Pooh's Acid Trip. Obviously there's more than just crack in the honey of The Hundred Acre Woods.
Target practice


The real deal. Disregard the first score. My fingers slipped (more times than I care to count).


It took some convincing but she finally agreed to get on. Congratulations are in order for Ms. Telfer; she actually managed to be the only person screaming through the entire ride of what may possibly be the only roller coaster that's weaker than Knotts' Jaguar. Thats a smile of embarrassment...the other people on the ride were laughing AT her.
Random Fact #2: You know you're spoiled when you get a FastPass when you don't wanna wait in a 10 minute line. We did that about 5 times. Does that make you quintuply spoiled?


...and what better place to spend the end of the night? Sonic stays on point, except for when you have to substitute diet cherry syrup in your Cherry Limeade because "we ran out of the non-diet stuff." SMH. It tasted like a Shirley Temple after you already drank half of it and the ice had fully melted. the Toaster more than made up for it though.
Random Question #2: Who came up with the idea that putting bacon on anything automatically makes it better?
Random Question #3: Who came up with the idea that putting undercooked bacon on anything automatically commands a $1 price hike from its non-undercooked bacon sporting counterpart?
Random Fact #3: Coney (n)- a hotdog which was dipped in the toilet purchased from Sonic
1)What the hell was that? It tasted like shit..
2)Oh, that was the Coney from Sonic*

Sadly, Fantasmic! is closed until November (otherwise you'd be seeing 139475879749 photos of the dragon sequence right now). Splash Mountain and the Matterhorn notwithstanding, we've promised to get on every ride and see every attraction that Disneyland has to offer this year.
362.24 days left...

Orange County: A Story in Four Parts




So...Nat takes me on a trip to the O.C. today.
I figure it's only right to show her a few of my own spots...
The run to Blends CM was the sole inkspot of the day; I picked up a pair of Iron Maiden Sk8 Hi's for a decent price and didn't bother trying them on (against the recommendation of the virgin sneaker shopper that is Natalie). Woke up today to see how they looked on and noticed the tag on the box:

Mens' 9.5
Womens' 11.0


All sales final and no exchanges. Shoe boutique store policies FTL. Brilliant.



Chocolate Marshmallow; brand new flavor. Imagine the best Ding Dong you ever tasted, then multiply that x10 and slap on a $3.75 price tag. It's better than that. Food always tastes better when it costs more. Except In-n-Out.

$25.59 worth of some of the best stuff on Earth (best meaning best tasting, not best for your health).
Yes...it was all eaten. 30 seconds later, she was swayed to the dark side. We'll be making another trip soon.
