Tourist mai tais, GEMnastycs, and a stoked stupid face

Okay, Jen E, I'm working on a glossary of terms. That'll help all you kooks (newbie surfer) out with the pidgin.

Started the new job on Monday; doing the commute on Da Bus. I'm about 5 miles from home to work. I may get a bicycle or a scooter for transpo. Scooters are cheap here; but bicycles seem dangerous. I hear a story just about every other day of a tourist in a crosswalk, or a cyclist in a bike lane getting hit by a car.

Da Bus? Not so dangerous. Although a smelly IT guy sat next to me for ten minutes the other morning.

Drank four $3.95 Mai Tais on Monday and was feeling very happy. About halfway through #1 a surf-rock band started up. Great music! They were very talented and had some primo gear. I started taking pics and sending to my son. Hoping he and his g/f come out here to see me soon.
Conner told me he was 'drooling' over the tube amp and guitars those guys had on display.
Cut myself off so I didn't show up to second day of work smelling like da bums!

More adventures with the GEM, for those of you who know that reference. I'll detail it all at some point. I'm debating with myself how much to put out here. I'd like to document for posterity and my children's future knowledge, exactly what sort of nonsense we've been putting up with for the past eight years, but I also worry that the younger girls are still in a fragile state and not evolved enough yet to parse out the actions of their mother from their love for her. Ugh.

If you know Kris, give her a little support. :)

Saw this building today on the corner of Bishop and Hotel: OREGON on the Hotel St side. Cool! Our friend Freddy has a restaurant on the ground floor, just below the green awning. Aloha Fresh Salads is good!


Okay, out of here about 4 (7 PDT) today to get in a surf session before sunset. Think about me when you go to be tonight. I'll be wandering back up to da hale in my slippahs, warm, tropical beads of saltwater dripping off my boardshorts, and a stoked grin on my stupid face.

Thanks for commenting, unless you're a 'bot, then I hope you rust, or whatever the digital equivalent of oxidation of metal may happen to be.

If you're a hacker, could you work on taking down a bank that I have loans at? That would really help.
