This is really interesting…

We started a new thing a couple weeks ago called Flash Camping.  Basically you just show up at someone’s house (in this case skeelo) who isn’t aware you are coming and preferable isn’t home at the time, set up shop, and camp!  We had a fire, grilled hot dogs & burgers (failed grilling pizza), ate s’mores and enjoyed some nature (long grass).  Have to say it was nice not having to drive back into Seattle the next day and nice having a gas station a block away that we could walk to 3 times throughout the night.  Be on the lookout for a flash camp near you!

Lately I’m thinking…

It’s been a long time since I’ve had an actual update.  In fact it’s been so long that since my last update, apparently including a comma after the 2nd to last item in a list is no longer acceptable (it used to be optional).  For example, “I like pizza, tacos, and chicken strips” is now “I like pizza, tacos and chicken strips”.  I’m going to have to adjust the whole way I write updates!!  How did I hear about this in the first place?   …Twitter

Shout out to…

(Wow a lot has happened since I updated in 2006) Mitch and Lisa Thompson for having their baby girl Kate, Alex and Lauren Umbdenstock for having their baby Presley, and Warren and Carriann witsoe getting married.  Wowzers!  (Anything else anyone else did probably won’t make the cut today).

This video seriously dominates.  I watch it before trying to eat foods i don’t like

The soapbox…

It’s good to be back Burbank

Lately I’m thinking…I’m out the next 4 days so no updates during that stretch.  Wait, does that mean I update more often when I’m out of town that in town?  I’ve totally been blowing it lately, but I have a special feeling about next week.  They’re just going to have to be nighttime updates as work keeps making me work.  Go Cats!

 

Lately I’m thinking…This was supposed to go out on Friday!   Anyway, I’ll have an actual update tonight.  Probably

This is a picture of me just about to say something important in vegas.  I don’t think I ever said anything though

Lately I’m thinking…

Had a blast in Bellingham last weekend.  Would have never thought that I would be more sore from squatting behind barriers than from getting tagged with paint balls.  I couldn’t walk for like 2 days.  Looking forward to being in Seattle this weekend though as I just realized I’ll be gone the next 4 weekends after that…

Currently Watching…

This quick video on state stereotypes in two minutes.  I thought it was humorous.

Currently listening to…

(custom prompt) Dirt Road Anthem.  So hot right now

The soapbox…

karaoke tonight!!  Should be a really good night, I can just feel it.  Come on out!  (Kellen, sorry this wasn’t a better post)

Took Seeley skiing on Saturday which was pretty darn fun.  Here’s a short video I tried to take – didn’t do a very good job obviously, but the moral of the story it’s hilarious watching her run downhill in a full sprint.  Even when we got to the steeper parts she was in front of me the whole time.

This is really interesting…

our front gate at the house was kind of “sagging” which required you to lift it up a little bit to open it.  So after 2 trips to home depot this weekend and about 8 different tools I “fixed” it.  Problem is now it doesn’t latch at all…I seriously have no idea what went wrong.  Right now I’m convinced it that I fixed it so well that the quality level is too far above the entire rest of the fence, and they don’t match up.

I mean there’s no doubt in my mind this is going to be the worst season of the bachelorette

This is really interesting…

Well after some quick calculations I determined that I paid the least amount of money per golf shot at Chambers Bay, so I’ve got that going for me.  Honestly if that course ever wants to make it to the big time they need carts.  I mean Par 3 in Billings has carts, and somehow Chambers Bay is the one hosting the US open??  Anyway, I shot a lot of triple bogies, although I did go par-par-bogey to finish once that bladerade Reid bought me finally kicked in.
