May 1st Boycott

A lot of boycotting going on today. They want immigration reform, so pretty much they say, we made it in illegally now let us stay since we made it? Interesting. Our first play-off game is today but before, I went to the taco shop and it's closed!!! I talked to my gf and she's boiling in Texas right now. Let's hope she does well on her interview tomorrow!!! We said our love you;s. Gonna play some AA. It's still weird for me to think in central time.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

First! Have a great one!!!

My gf and I have great hopes for this year, but she's leaving real soon. I don't want her to leave but she's mentioned that she can't fix ... here, and that she decided this before we got back together. I can understand that so, if it's for the better in the long run then I'm all for it. Am I making the wrong decision by not asking her to stay? I keep hearing her saying that she's not changing her mind so maybe that's a hint to not try to convince her? I'm just happy we're back together!!!

New Web Host

I moved the website to a real host, finally. Also, got an SSL certificate for the site and more space. That should be enough of a while. Only thing now is to get credit card processing and check clearing, but that's down the line.

A Trip to the Beach

My car got broken into at Coronado Beach. I couldn't believe it! If you know the area, then that's one of the last places you would expect this to happen. They stole my friends pants, my starbucks, and 7-11 giftcards. I was surprised that the GPS, and cash was still there. Weird. The police showed up and did their report, finger-printed and took photos.

It was cheaper for me to call the glass company so they repaired it in my driveway. I used the same company that replaced my front windshield in July (softball to the front windshield)

My First Post

Ok...It's a done deal. I created a blog. Aren't you excited? Half the problem was trying to just come up with a name for the site. I came up with [Name Removed]

It's 12:20pm PDT, and I am waiting for the Little League World Series (Vista vs. Hawaii) to start. Let's see what happens.

La Jolla Cove Proposal

We went to La Jolla Cove today and I saw what I intrepreted was "proposal" setting. I watched and sure enough, it was. I snapped a few photos for them and the couple was happy that I took them since they had no camera. Interesting no?

I gave him my email and he probably will buy some photos from us.

Buying Used Computer

I got an email from my work. The HQ is based in Norfolk (they pay my contract), and they want my old pc as-is because it has all my coding and configuration. The person tasked with taking over my position is not "up-to-speed," according to them.

I don't work there at the moment, but my friends are guarding that PC like pitbulls!

Jury Duty Leads To Job

Last day of jury duty and I head over to FISC to have lunch with my friend. He tells me they are looking for someone for a project. I meet the director, and interview right then and there. I start Tuesday.

The plan is to ride the trolley into work and back, and that the kids can be safer in my truck. I can read or listen to my walkman. Or, sleep - probably not.

No longer together

I broke-up with my gf today. I told her in her bedroom and she wouldn't stop crying. Her brothers and sisters gave me the evil look but I didn't say anything. She asked me if it was because I didn't love her, then if it was because I found someone else, then if it was because she wasn't as smart, then she wondered if it was because it was my mom.

She called tonight almost within minutes of me getting home. I didn't know what to say. I know I'll see her tomorrow around campus again I wonder if I made the right decision.

New Volleyball Partner

Coach Daniels formed permanent teams today. He placed experienced players with new players to create even teams. There's a new girl and I asked the coach if he could pair us up. Of course, he didn't make it obvious and looked around for a bit and then said, "Hey Sam, why don't you and L.R.A, go over to court one and warm up." I owe him big time, I'll make a BW print of him serving the ball, it looks awesome.

I haven't decided what I'm getting my gf for her birthday, maybe the necklace. I'm going to ask her sister to wrap it for me since I can't wrap worth [BEEP]

First Day Of Work

Today was my first day of work and arrived at 7:22 a.m. because that's when the trolley drops me off. So far, all that happened was that I got my badge and my "cardkey," and a place to sit.

I don't know a single soul here and feel completely out of place. It's old - an old naval base building, like you see in the movies,everything is. I'm the youngest person here by far. I met the other programmers and they're mcuh older, maybe in their late twenties.

I wonder if I made the right decision to take this scholarship. I felt sooo sleepy today around 2:00. I work from 7:30 to 4:00, with a measly 30 minute lunch. Luckily my girlfriend brought a nice lunch and we ate on the pier.

I have something planned for my first paycheck. First, give my mom some money, then take my girlfriend out to a nice restaurant to celebrate. I found a necklace for her that I hope she'll like.

It's Official

I have a girlfriend since she said, 'yes.' I grabbed her hand and wrote, "Will you be my girlfriend?" She grinned and got my hand and wrote, "Yes!" and told me not to wash it. How silly can we get?

My mom is not too happy about all the time I'm spending with her. My best friend says that she's jealous because her son is being taken away.

The bonfire was fun tonight at Coronado, but we got sand all over the van, and the parental units are going to be mad.
