This is just a cute photo from this weekend of Meeko. These are some VHS I was putting on half.com to sell and she decided it would be a good idea to take a nap on them while I worked on the computer. Before the concert Meeko had to go to the vets to get some vaccines. Here she is outside the carrier ready to go.She was groggy when Amy and I left for the concert but by the time we came back she had tossed her cat food. She got sick three times. I have never had a kitten react this way. It scares me. I don't like that she is not feeling well. Hopefully she will be back to her old self very soon.

The Fray

On Saturday, Nov. 11th My SIL (Amy) and I went to see The Fray at the SDSU open air amphitheatre. The opening band The Damnwells was alright. Two different guys from The Fray took the stage on different songs to play with the Damnwells. The place was packed out by the time The Fray took the stage. It started to drizzle at one point, but no one seemed to care. The tech. guys just pulled out some plastic sheets and covered parts of the sound board. They had special guest Jason Mraz come out and play for a couple songs. They played some of their older stuff, mixed in with their current CD, and a few new ones. They ended with How To Save a Life. I am glad we had the opportunity to go because Amy and I had a great time.

I'm just saying.

More tv fun

Nothing makes me happier when I turn on the tv than finding a police chase in progress. It's surreal seeing people going crazy like that, usually in places I've been or on roads I drive on every day.

One time a guy was doing a slow chase down the main street near my parent's house. He was stopping at most major intersections and would wait a few minutes before moving on a little farther. When he got to within a few blocks of us, my brother ran out there to try and get on tv. Another kid from our church had the same idea. Seeing someone next to you one minute and on tv news the next is very odd.

Tonight there was a short one going when I turned on the news. The car stopped quickly and 4 homies jumped out and ran. Unfortunately for them, they weren't smart enough to run in different directions so they were all caught after about 30 seconds.

I know they are usually dangerous situations. I don't get a thrill out of seeing people hurt. I'm more looking to see the criminals wipe out their cars or get spun out by the police. With night time chases there's always the hope that they'll lose a tire so we get a mini fireworks show as the rim bounces off the pavement.

Best show on tv...

Even though my birthday isn't until December, my family groups it together with my grandfather's birthday at the end of October since everyone is busy with the holidays later on. It's too hard to get together for every birthday, so everyone has to share a party. This year, one of the few things I asked for were seasons 1 and 2 of The Office.

This weekend I am going to finish watching them. I'd gone through season 1 and the first disc of season 2 with 3 discs to go. I had only seen a few of the episodes because I was always working when it was on and our reception is horrid once the vcr gets involved.

I didn't realize how many ongoing plot points I had missed especially between Jim and Pam. I could also watch nothing but Jim and Dwight interacting and be very happy.

Meeko Cessna Hutchins

This kitty cracks me up! She has these sparkaly fuzz balls that she LOVES to bat around. Well she has started to pick it up with her mouth and carry them around the house. It is hi-larious to watch. I have started to teach her to bring it to me and I take it out of her mouth and then toss it for her to go get again. Here are some photos showing these events.

Mexifornia Election Results

It's a relief to know that when my 13 year old daughter goes off to get an abortion, nobody will bother me about it. But don't worry, I'll make sure all the consent forms and her emergency contact info is up to date at school in case she needs an aspirin for the pain.

Really?

It took 2 and a half years before you woke up and realized you were married to Kevin Federline? At least the next girl he's with will know that he ALWAYS checks out as soon as the second kid is born. That'll help her plan ahead.

the Ritz Carlton it is not

I spend the past weekend driving down to SD on Thursday and hanging out with Amy watching Survivor and Grey's. Then on Friday my mom and I headed up to Victorville to help with a garage sale. We checked into our MOTEL they swear people pay over $100 for these rooms. We did it online and didn't pay that much. This is the first time we were not pleased with the outcome. We didn't stay at the room long, we headed right over to my Aunt and Uncles house. I helped take bags of clothes down stairs while Amanda (my cousin) went through her stuffed animals deciding what should stay and what could go. Then she had to head off to work. We stayed as Robin went through a few more things and then the three of us went to a local place for dinner.

After that we headed back to the hotel to watch a little TV and hit the hay as we needed to get up very early the next day. The sale went fairly well. Anything left over afterwards Josh (my cousin) and I bagged back up and we loaded everything into the two 4runners and headed over to Goodwill. After that it was time to get going back to SD as my Aunt and Uncle get exhausted very easily.

I stayed the night in SD and was woken up early Sunday morning by a certain kitty who decided it was a good idea to start playfully biting my ear at 7am so she would have a playmate! I told her it was not time to get up yet. She didn't wake me up again until 9. I did some laundry, my mom and I took in a movie and then it was time to head home once again.

Just Say NO!

Things could get real ugly today. Go vote.

What's stuck in Paul's head #2

It's probably because it's in the Gears of War trailer they show before Borat. I don't mind it being stuck in my head right now since I haven't heard it in a while.

Hey pal,

I don't like you. Take your buddies and get out of my apartment. Your kind isn't wanted around here. And while you're at it, knock off that incessant chirping at all hours of the night. I get it. You're in the living room. Is somebody not getting enough attention today?

Squishy, My Wish For You...

I know you don't like "my" country music. But the first time I ever heard this song I thought of you. Now seems like a good time to share it with you. I love you, take care of yourself.

[My Wish For You]

I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow,
and each road leads you where you want to go,
and if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
and if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin' 'til you find the window,
if it's cold outside,
show the world the warmth of your smile,
but more than anything, more than anything,

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
and while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

I hope you never look back, but ya never forget,
all the ones who love you, in the place you left,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
and you help somebody every chance you get,
Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,
and you always give more then you take.

But more than anything, Yeah, and more than anything,

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it,
to your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
and while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it,
to your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
and while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.
this is my wish
i hope you know somebody loves you
may all your dreams stay big

3rd grade test

Saw this on Cate's blog and so I decided to give it a try. I completed this test in half the amount of time given to take it. I figure that is a good thing since I teach children. I find it odd that they don't include Hawaii or Alaska but whatever.

Interesting

I suppose I shouldn't be suprised as I was born and raised in SD. It is a beautiful place with wonderful people.

You Belong in San Diego

Laid back and friendly, you were meant to live most of your life on the beach. You usually think everything is "all good"... except when the weather dips under 60F. You stay classy - especially when you're in Tijuana!

Night at the Pond...er...Honda Center

Last night I got to go to the Ducks game vs. the Phoenix Coyotes. Brad got free tickets through someone at work so we both went. My dad had expressed interest in some Kings tickets Brad had earlier in the week so my parents ended up going too. I think this was my mom's first pro sports event that didn't feature the Dodgers. We met at the Block and headed over to the Pond (I don't care if it says it's the Honda Center, it is and will be the Pond).

The tickets we had turned out not to be normal tickets. We soon found out that we didn't have to wait with the masses of people out front...we got to go in a seperate entrance with a private elevator up to our seats. Nice. As soon as we sat down, a waitress came over and let us know there was no need to go wait in line for food because she'd get us anything we wanted.

We made up for the $3 per person we had to pay for parking very soon after we got there. A blimp was flying around and dropped a couple of cards near us. They turned out to be good for free Togo's sandwiches. Then the lady in front of us was picked to win Carl's Jr. Six Dollar Burgers for her whole row by answering a Ducks trivia question on the jumbotron. When she missed it, they gave the free burger coupons to our row instead! It looks like my next 2 nights to cook are just about taken care of.

The game started off slow, but the Ducks scored 4 times in the second period (including a cool penalty shot) to go up 5-0. The final score was 6-2 Ducks. Brad was a little disappointed that he went to 3 games this week and didn't see a single fight, but overall it was a good time anyway.

BTW: Ric...not only did you miss VIP hockey, but a midget family was sitting by us. Hope you feel better for the next one.

The one time I leave the house...

It's too bad I left the house this afternoon because Ben Stein personally called me today. He wanted to make sure I vote for Arnold Schwarzenegger on Tuesday. I really want to discuss it further with him, but he forgot to leave his phone number. I guess he figured I already had it.

Cyndi's Halloween

For many, many moons I have been going down to San Diego for Halloween. My bestfriend Erin and I go over to the church carnival and hang out. Her oldest daughter Hadley plays the games and we get a chance to talk.

This year was no execption. Usually I see a few people I know from years ago, this year I saw a ton of people. So here are som shout outs... Monica Wafford, Collin and Aurora, Kjirsten, Marc and Tiffany + their new little one Hope, Erin and Jon + their two little girls, and Karen Beck (Erin's Mom), Zach Dietz and his mom. That is all I can remember right now. If you were there and I didn't see you or forgot to add you to the list... my bad.

On to the event:
Here is Hadley feeding a goat at the petting zoo

and here is Adrienne, Hadley's little sister

Marc and Tiffany Henning with Hope

It was a funtastic evening of talking with Erin, seeing so many people I haven't seen in years, meeting Hope Henning, and playing games and acting silly with Tiffany. Good Times were had!

We got visitor #18,000 to our blog tonight. Whoever it was is listed as being from Winchester, CA. I have no idea where that is, but I hope you enjoyed your stay.
