Celebrating an anniversary of my birth!

Oyeeeee, it's been a while since I posted on my blog and I apologize. I celebrated my birthday last Saturday (my actual birthday's on Monday) and it was a blast. Ash, Saam, Ian, Lisa, Kelly, Trevor, Ben, David, Corkie, Gerardo, Tamara, Aaron, Tafie, Adam, Nat, Trevor's brother and his three friends, Scott, and Alex came to help celebrate. I get the feeling I forgot somebody, hmm....if I did, I deeply apologize. It was an awesome time surrounded by wonderful people. I feel I am a very fortunate man to have such wonderful people in my life. We celebrated at Dante's, a bar on Roosevelt Way. The grub was GOOD! The biggest surprise of that night was Scott and Alex showing up. I was seriously blown away. Then Scott made me drink three shots of MacNaughton's....I already had quite a few glasses of beer and had some more afterwards. Surprisingly, I was fine. Usually my body cannot tolerate beer and whiskey at the same time. I think it comes with age.

While we were at Dante's, my kid was with a babysitter. She's 16 and deaf, not Deaf. But she has alot of spunk and knows what she stands for. It's admirable to see that in a deaf high school student, ya know.

Monday, my actual birthday, my kid and I went to meet Ash at Ha Na, a Japanese restaurant. One of the best in Seattle. It was nice. Went window shopping for a while.

I got a parent-teacher conference at noon today. If my kid's been a good kid at school then I'm gonna give her hell cuz she was anything but good at home. She's actually been sweet for the last couple of days. Hmm......either that my kid's testing the boundaries or I gotta change some things around home...maybe its my parenting ways that need to be changed. *sigh*

Live free and enjoy life! :-)

Riding on Father Time's winged horse

Go, horse, go! Wait! Slow down! Hey, slooooooow down! *CRASH*

That one hurt!

School is going good except that I lost one of my books and it was needed for me to participate in the weekly discussion about what we read in the book. It will arrive tomorrow. *sigh*

On top of that, I got a research paper to work on.

I had to turn down an opportunity to talk to Deaf youths about the importance of school tomorrow night cuz of school. I feel bad about that. I'm hoping I can make it up somehow. Just wanted to get some things done before this weekend. My kid and I will stay at Ash's apartment. I can't wait to see her on Friday! We had an awesome date last Saturday night. We went to our restaurant and we were ready to walk around downtown Seattle but it was raining. Instead, we just laid on her bed and watched "Hitch". It's a good and funny movie. Will Smith did a good job.

Last Saturday, Nebraska lost a heartbreaker versus Texas Tech. *sigh* 4-1 is their record.

Minnesota didn't play last weekend which is good, I think. They're 1-3. *sigh*

November 2nd, Minnesota Timberwolves will play their first game! Go T-wolves!

My cats, Geronimo and Kolohe, are raising some feline hell as usual.

My kid's got some good and bad days. Parenthood...argh!

As I close my eyes, I can visualize myself sitting on the beach in Hawaii watching the waves as they crash the shore. A light warm breeze plays with my hair. I get up and run to jump in the warm salt water. Oy, I gotta go back! Ash, let's go to Haleiwa! :-*

I got a craving to go on another road trip........

Fall's here and the leaves are a-fallin'! Pretty! But I miss summer :-( It was an awesome summer!

Ok, that's it for now

Till then amigos y amigas

Eat, drink, and be merry!

More facts of life!

17) Share your knowledge, it's a way to achieve immortality.
18) Bush still sucks. The only reason he flew over the hurricane disaster areas is to check on his "investments". Bloody bastard.
19) When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.
-Hey Bush, I'm still waiting for you to resign!
-Hey Republicans, I'm still waiting for your apology!
-Hey Congress, I'm still waiting for you to impeach that monkey of a president!
20) If you have awesome friends, consider yourself lucky. I am extremely lucky.
21) We should have a National Moron Day dedicated to our wonderful president.

Ta da for now :-)

It's October! *run for your life*

Iowa State vs Nebraska - both teams are undefeated - only one will come out on top - Go Nebraska!

It's October 1st, 30 days until Halloween!

School's going well.

Yesterday, I had a technological headache! I couldn't get online so I called Comcast. We were on the phone for an hour until they figured that something was wrong with the router I was using. I called D-Link about the router and they figured out that it simply needed to be reconfigured. They admitted that they didn't know why it needed to be reconfigured but sometimes it happens. Technology!

Today, my love will come over and we relax together in front of the ol' boob tube. I can't wait!
