Holy moly I thing this is my 3rd or 4th awesome weekend in a row! Went to Yosemite for a little hiking and fishing (its amazing, I didn’t even have a fishing pole in the water but I’m still a pretty good fisherman!)
I LOVE camping. These falls were amazing and the lake we stayed on and rented a pontoon boat to go fishing with was the same lake in the movie “The Great Outdoors” with John Candy. Pretty damn awesome.

Weekend Update May 10th – 16th: Lets go Vegas! WOOT!
Jun 3rd
Monday: I just want to get to vegas, had a great talk with the boss man on Saturday and I’m gearing up for my big changes.
Tuesday: Talked over my future of my life with my actual boss. He didn’t seem happy but also very supportive. i think they understand. Went out celebrating because it was a big step for me.
Wednesday: Woot woot! Tiff scored us some tickets to the Angels game! Matt Tiff and I all went out to the game after a shot of tequila and some beers (great idea). I also finished up a hefty task for work, so I was pretty happy.
Thursday: Less than amazingly motivated, but it’s my brothers (a little belated) Birthday, and I get to see him tonight to go out to dinner. He’s in town for some dental thing and It just worked out for tonight because I’m going to VEGAS tomorrow!
Friday: Work then to VEGAS!
Vegas was awesome, pictures are worth more than words…

Monday
monday… wait today is monday. Whoa it totally feels like friday, and I’m exhausted…
Came down stairs after finally finishing work at midnight to find out my bike was leaking way more gas than normal.. So I drove it home
Tuesday.. work is crazy, way too hectic to be alive. turned my bike over to the professionals to get a tune up and fix the leaking gas, it didn’t blowup. Rode my bike in for a nice relaxing ride until I hit the chaos of work. Lost was awesome! That was a good note on my day
Wednesday… the germans say everything is broken, I believe them, but I’m feeling less and less inclined to help them out. I work hard, but I feel like half of my day is spent keeping up with our ever changing infrustructure. Happy Cinco de Mayo to everybody but those of you in Arizona. To you, I say “Happy fifth of May” and “Watch out!”
Went to Sean’s bar for the celebrations, good times but I learned a very important lesson, do not, I repeat, DO NOT try to skateboard and play scrabble at the same time while drunk. Bad News Bears.
Thursday…
Friday…
Saturday… Had a great day with my boss ripping off all the insides of his car! pretty cool shit. I really enjoyed taking out the radiators and piping (pictures below). He’s got a really sweet electric car conversion of a porche. He bought an old Porche with a busted engine and just started tearing away until he got rid of all the crap you need to keep a combustion engine running (this is the stage we got to today). Now he’s just got to build a rack for this bad boy’s engine and hook it up to some heavy duty batteries.
After the car, Leo was awesome enough to take me to dinner with his family. We talked a bunch about the future and my job at MSC.. all in all a very very productive day. Finally at about 1 am I went home. Did I mention that his entire outdoor patio has FIRE all around it? it’s probably the coolest thing EVER!

I’m a horrible blogger 
the last couple of weeks have been quite fun but also very very busy at work. I guess I only missed three weeks but thats unacceptable.
Quick Re-cap with some photos!
weekend of 16th – 19th, spent with matt dan and sean going to hollywood, anaheim, and of course rock climbing (first time we used all my new gear) in Idyllwild! amazing time and pretty cool areas, although I have a lot to learn about rock climbing!
Went to Perris Park for a rock called Big Rock, to do some actual sport climbing, pretty damn awesome, led my first root ever that day!!!
Weekend of the 24th – 25th, spent most of my time pitching websites on saturday, got a lot of great leads.
I seem to remember partying some where, but its all a big blur.
This last weekend, I remember even less. I know we went to a party on saturday for Tiffany’s going away (she’s going to have an awesome time in Hawaii). and friday…. way too long ago and boring to remember. Sorry Friday. Maybe I went to haven?
Here’s a link to the album on Picassa: Rock Climbing

Monday
Becker got a call from the appartment complex about us being too roudy and offensive to guests! WTF?! Turns out it was just some one pretending to be from our appartment but it was totally unprofessional of her to accuse us with out getting her facts straight. We were pretty pissed.
Watched an awesome documentary on the making and breaking of Heaven’s Gate. Really good documentary about a director who had an unlimited budget to make a movie and totally screwed the production company over. And the movie wasn’t that good.
Picked up my Bike from the bike shop! brand spanking new handle bar grips! awesome! Haha, carried it home over my shoulder on my motorcycle, glad I didn’t get pulled over.
Tuesday
Woke up late and rode in beautiful day. Sean straightend everything out with the apartment complex but he was pissed!
Went to dinner at Lazy dog, pretty good burgers.
Had a nightmare about that stupid “The Ring” girl, God I hate that movie.

I hate SimManager, and I’m less fond of my job right now.

A day I fealt I did nothing and nobody was home last night. So lonely.
Friday
Work was meh but I was looking forward to a movie all day!! Woot!! Dragons and more dragons!! Got to the yard house finally!!!
Stone ipa makes my worries run away.
Dragon’s was amazing! One of the better Dreamworks plots / movies to date. I really loved the ending, I thought it was perfect. and the dragon reminded me of Kona
Saturday
Kind of a lonely day, went to the park 10 miles on my bike to read a book and go slacklining. I’m getting better at traversing, now if I could only do those pesky backflips.
At night we went to newport, I made a bunch of margarita’s and nobody but me wanted them… So I drank them ALL! uh.. oh….
Sunday
Watched iron man and went to lucyil’s for lunch! mmmm.
Cool day, went to an indian shop out in th middle of no where. Guy was a little nutty about some sort of magic math that was supposed to correct our souls but all in all pretty cool guy. Got some art work and trinkets for my desk.

Friday
Did absolutely nothing but finish Fall out 3 (at least the main story line) and sleep. Awesome!…. kinda, still pretty lame.
Saturday
Went out at night with Matt and Melissa and Sean to heaven, some absolutely amazing beers, but other than that a pretty mellow night. Poor sean has to work too much… like tomorrow for easter!
Sunday
Easter sunday brunch at Woodies! Thanks mellissa for getting us reservations!
Traveled around to mutts and sharkies. but woodies was the best.
Finished the night off (after a nice long nap) at club lucky, which was pretty fun.

Mar 26th
Hectic week this week. Been pounded by jetlag big big time. But I’m getting over it now.
Work has been pretty killer but way less stressfull than the last three to four weeks. So that’s good!
Played a lot of video games. Fallout 3 is awesome.
Had a very nerve racking meeting this morning (Friday) but it’s over now. All of Thursday night was chock full of angst because of that damn presentation and our horrible software.
Oh yeah and matts jeep got broken into. And so did my bike. They took a bunch of petty shit, nothing really of value. I’m only pissed at losing my biking gloves and tool kit because it’s a cold drive in in the morning.
But nothing can dash my hopes for this weekend!!!
Friday: dan met me at the airport and then we went to other john’s play; othello. That was pretty awesome to see him performing in such a stand up production. Unfortunately we could not get great seats and some of us got bored so we left at intermission. So we went out on the town to maloneys. Awesome place. And what made it even awesomer is that half of this large bar was jon and liz’s friends! It truely was increadible how many people jon knows. And howmany flew from so far away to meet him.
Saturday: day of the wedding!
Woke up, went to brunch with matt and Melissa and dan at an awesome 50s style diner in Denver. After matt and Melissa got settled into thier hotel. Got ready and then off to the wedding!
Chapel was really nice, and the ceremonies were quite good. The after party (aka reception) was absolutely awesome Food was amazing and dancing was a lot of fun! Party lasted till midnight when we all left for a club. Club was ok but everyone was quite tired, so I think we all retired early.
I really should get better at taking pictures.

Finally te day is here to go skiing with the parents! And I’m off to bend Oregon from lax. Met a cool girl going to Germany for a trade show. Armada was the nameof her company. Pretty small ( like 5 people) but they do 10k plus sales of skis. Wow sounds like fun.
The van driver was new. Had no idea what he was doing.
I left on my little plane ( pic) at night and got in to find my parents with some friends they had picked up in town (aquaintences from Hawaii) everybody was a bit drunk
The hotel was quite nice. Very large and we looked out over the water. We had a beer from deschutes and retired early in anticipation for the next day.
Saturday
We got up to the mountain at a reasonable time and met Leon there who was our official tour guide. He was very very nice but he loved to talk and obey the rules. As a result we didn’t get any real skiing in until we split ways and mom and I could take on the blacks and double blacks all by our selves!
Oh man did we have fun! Outback and northwest passage were the best! Got some great jumps and runs in despite my bindings being broken.
We met some avalanche dogs and bought their shirt because it was cool.
Dad turned out to go on a sled ride with some dogs and waited up there on the mountain because our tire went flat!
After we drove back he went out to go fix it at sears because he’s awesome.
Went out to deschutes brewery and got a 12 pack sampler! Awesome!
Sunday
Went out skiing again after we picked my board up from the shop. Got on the town bus to get up to the mountain.
An amazing day of skiing! Oh man. The skys were blue and the snow was perfect! The top of the mountain opened up and we got lost on our way Down but it was amazing! Had some great ten plus foot drops and some perfect snow! Very tiring but very worth it.
I totally felt more comfortable today and was taking larger and larger jumps!
Oh I almost forgot! It is superbowl Sunday!!! Go new Orleans! Woot! Awesome comercials. Cool bar at the hotel and good beers.
Went to bed early for my ass early flight in the morning.
