New Beginnings!

Its the first of the month, and time for a change. I’m going to accomplish at least two different things this month, be it a song or a website or getting back into shape, atleast two. Speaking of new beginnings, my job is awesome! There is also a new season of ABDC though I’ve yet to pick a new favorite, but I see some prospects.

I think I’ll go buy a new pair of shoes, or if anyones feeling generous! I’ve been eyeing these for sometime:

To continue the trend of “new” a friend of mine launched a new design to his site with some fresh new gear:

To the windooow to the mall

I am the luckiest guy that I know of. Whether it be good luck or bad luck, I just have a lot. More times than most tipped in an unfavored direction. We got into Vegas on Friday in record time, there was no traffic and we had time to grab a meal from the cfa.

Chick-Fil-A

Plans to see 21 that night were postponed till the following afternoon, and a group of ten or so enjoyed the picture after a sunset breakfast, station that is… After the fim, Jess made an Extra Terrific shirt at the diner in Fashion, and I picked up some cheap shades.

We headed down to Extreme Thing after that, a lot of ET’s that weekend, but we only stayed for about an hour only to come back to my passenger quarter window being smashed and Brittany’s phone stolen out of my car. Without letting it get me down too much, I went to Henderson to visit Ruben in his new shop and had some of the most amazing wings ever, so if you’re down by Boulder Hwy and Lake Mead in the south area be sure to stop by Lucky Mart and visit the meat market.

A few of us went to Mitch’s birthday at the Red Rock casino later that night.

Rhoji and Dhanai

Dhanai, Mitch, and Rhoji

From the moment we walked in the eye in the sky was watching and security attacked us on numerous occasions. The party was cool, but we had business to attend to. In efforts to thank the resort for its generous hospitality I wanted to donate back, at the black jack tables. I failed my attempt and took money from them instead. Alls well that ends well.

We stopped by Jess’s on my way home and got some guitar hero battles out of the way, but everyone was slowly slipping into slumber so we headed home. The next morning a few of us enjoyed the fine culinary skills of Archi’s Thai Bistro, which in my opinion is the best Thai Restaurant in Las Vegas and Los Angeles, but I am still waiting to be proven otherwise.

After lunch we tossed a ball around and headed back to the tables. This time I succeeded in my gratuitous efforts, a sad sad day for all of us. Before heading back west we bowled a game and lost a bit more weight in my wallet, and to keep tradition we grabbed some wings and shrimp at the b dub dub.

Traffic was not pleasing on the return, and we got in at about 12:45am

I got to say it was a good day

Something real bads about to happen. I don’t have good days, I have good half days followed by a terrible situation. I feel great, well rested, no traffic on the free way, my hair is cooperating… toss me an egg mcmuffin and im on vaca! Friday came quick, could be due to the fact that we drank away the week? It’s a blur one way or another. I heard a song that I like on a commercial last night, but I was too tired to get out of bed to look at what it was. So I browsed iTunes on my phone, I couldn’t find it but I found two other cd’s I liked: the new Spill Canvas, and Secondhand Serenade. They’re a good listen.

I tried messing with my phone this week after I was introduced to Ziphone, but in the end my phone is just too stubborn. I lost some recent entries so if I met you in the past 2 months or so, txt me your number again.

Last night Kaba Modern left the stage. Unbelievable… Jabba’s going to kill Status tho.

Happy St. Patties!

Time to dig up that ugly green sweater! This past weekend was pretty good. Two of my friends from Vegas, and some from Colorado came down to visit us. We had some good food, great drinks, and awesome times! My thanks go out to Rhoji, Kristen, and Cathy for making this weekend amazing! A quick play by play: Friday we partied at the loft, there was only about eight of us, but it was very entertaining. I had some great videos, but people got a hold of my camera and started filtering. Saturday is kind of a blur. I bought some fresh threads and I believe we ended up at Wokcano. Sunday, Horton heard a Who and Dave Busted the machine which made a Deal for No Deals that lead us to twenty shot glasses and a light saber!

She gives good helmet.

Haha, the first time I heard that as a kid on Spaceballs it just flew past me. Speaking of head, per say, I’ve got the worse ache for mine. It’s like someones squeezing the ju-uice. On that note, I need to go get an oj. Not to be confused with a get out of jail free card. * <– ass trick

Weekend Update

This weekend was pretty good. I bought some new gear for one thing, and just hung out with good friends. Friday night we went to some mixer for Rocky Delgadillo. I’m not really sure what for, but Ryan Seacrest was there and Rocky went into some speech about gang violence coming to a neighborhood near you. They had some decent food there, lots of kabobs and salmon. That evening we walked circles around downtown, including the 3rd street tunnel which was pretty long, trying to find Wokcano. Their glasses we’re not formatted for sake bombs, but they did have some good crab wontons and chicken dumplings.

On Saturday I went and grabbed some Chick-Fil-A and headed to Manhattan Beach. We kicked the soccerball around and played some volleyball. They’ve got a good pizza shop down there, and we had a couple pies. Later that night our roommate Demitri was having a party to get to know some of his coworkers better, but only some weird drugged out guys came and danced when there wasn’t any music playing.

I bought a new hat on Sunday, and Jess got some new kicks, then we went to a bbq in Willyville. Tadao cooked up a massive storm and had these red hot dogs from Hawaii I believe, that were supposed to be really good, but I couldn’t get myself to try any. We also got a replacement roommate for a month or so named Ethan. I guess he’s a web designer also. I’ve yet to see any of his work.

Friday!

I am so happy that it’s the weekend. It’s been a long week. So last Wednesday at Geisha I actually did bring my camera, but the lighting in there was too dark for videos… good thing though, I do not know “Hey Jealousy” as well as I thought I did. We had some new singers in the group this time. Mike sang an old Killers hit, and Christian got up and sang “Dancing with myself.” Alo did a couple tunes by panic and fob, and Howie mumbled something slow. Haha I don’t remember what it was.

I do have an interesting video from that night though, which I will throw up tonight. Tomorrow we’re having a get together at the loft. Even though Alo and I are reigning champs at the beer pong table, we will unfortunately have to bow out of all games that night. He’s on some sobriety kick, and I need to get myself into beach worthy status.

Today in the office is our foosball tournament. It’s teams of two, and my partner is our COO Scott. I’m not very good at defense, or offense for that matter so I will have to think of some creative diversion. Ron one of our associate creative directors is leaving to do more motion work with Exopolis, so in honor of his departure this tournament was created. He’s pretty good at the foos… but just give me two weeks of training.
