Kind Of

Fighting

I feel like it takes a lot for the average person to resort to having their fist connect with another person's face. Last night I couldn't sleep and somehow I was thinking if there was ever a time that I came to that very point. I thought of one time. You'd think it was a time as a child trying to be tough, sticking up for myself or for my friends. It wasn't.

I was hanging out with a friend and somehow we discovered a bird's nest that had a number of eggs. in it. My friend decided it would be a good idea to destroy the eggs and the nest altogether. I got really mad. First it was yelling, then pushing, then the punches came. he got a busted lip and a bloody nose. It doesn't get much tougher than that...standing up for unborn birds. I don't even like birds.

Beach Time

Last weekend we went out to Santa Barbara. I figured, early spring....its going to be foggy and cool. I didn't even bring a swimsuit. Not the case. It was amazing out and we actually spent quite a bit of time at the beach. I wish I would have had my bike out there to get a couple rides in too but time was filled just fine.

We talked a lot about the house the in-laws are prepping to replace their past one with. When I say it that way it sounds like they had a mobile home.;) Honey...time to replace the single whad, with a double whad. Anyway, I looked at and talked about a lot of drawings which I could really do all day. The lady loves that. ;)
The in-laws are also renting a pretty cool place part way up the mountain until their place is built. Quite a workout running to and from it.....especially since I can't figure out that city for the life of me and get lost all the time. I ran up and down the mountain three times before I got the right street. The above picture is from that place.

Twenty-Nine

I had a birthday a few weeks back. Twenty-nine is kind a weird age. I guess it also comes at kind of a weird time too. In less than a year I will be 30. I think 30 is one of those milestones where you look at where you are at and sort of guage things. I mean, I am just guessing because I am not there yet but I always envision myself on that day. Kind of silly, probably especially to folks quite a bit older than myself.

That's not my point though. My point is that I got Giant Chewy Wonka Nerds for my birthday and I was ecstatic. Kind of an obscure offering from the good ole Wonka factory but I am definitely a fan. I got six bags and the supply is dwindling. Hopefully I will be able to find them again locally.
