At any rate, the good thing is that summer session isn’t that long. In the meantime, I just need to hole myself up at the library and stop bringing my laptop to school as a distraction. Bringing lunch will also help, as I am spending way too much money on food on Telegraph. And here is a funny comic that Rosanna forwarded to me from her dad a couple of years ago.

I just tried to read this article from the NY Times about a restaurant in England. I feel like it is a perfect example of “what the f*@! is this person talking about”. I could not get through the article. It is full of horribly written trying-to-be-prose-like sentences, leaving the reader either feeling like he missed something crucial or feeling really angry. Don’t read it whatever you do.

End of rant.

Today is my 29th birthday.

Today I started summer school at Cal. The average age of everyone in my class was probably 20. I asked a kid which class it was, because I walked in late and he says, “Econ 140.” Um, thank you?! Anyways, there were 100 people in the classroom with people sitting in the aisles, and I was almost a little shocked. Have I acclimated to private school at Mills already? I guess it’s been awhile since I’ve been in a UC classroom.

Anyways, then I went to the DMV. Nothing really exciting happened there, except for a potentially really bad license picture.

I love birthdays. Especially my own.

The end.

Today was a beautiful day in SF. The sun was shining and the birds were chirping! As a side note, I love to wake up in Los Altos during the summer because it's so peaceful to hear the birds twittering away outside. It was kind of refreshing to hear some in the grungy Tenderloin. Anyways, it's my officially my last full week of nothingness before summer school starts. I had lunch with some old coworkers, went shopping (unsuccessfully) for something to wear for my upcoming birthday, went to Crate and Barrel to oogle over furniture and plates, and then went to Chrissy Field for a nice run. Lily and I started our long(er) runs for the half and we had a pretty nice pace this past Sunday in GGP. I'm totally digging the half marathon training. It doesn't cut too much into my life but it's enough to keep me on track. Now it's off to meet my mom and cousin at my favorite sushi place. Alright, that's enough of my own twittering for now.

Yeah, that’s Chris O’Donnell. WITH KIDS. They are so ridiculously cute and tiny. So Chris O’Donnell wasn’t the most successful of actors (ie: Batman and Robin), but I watched most of his movies. Who was your crush?

After Berkeley, I ran some errands and grabbed a burrito. Now, I think everyone knows that I’m not the biggest burrito fan. But I found this place called High Tech Burrito a few years ago where I can order my ridiculous froofy “Starbucks”-esque version of a burrito. Whole wheat tortilla, grilled chicken, salsa, tomatoes and lettuce. It’s like a wrap. With burrito in hand, I headed over the Bay Bridge to Fort Point, and sat under the Golden Gate and ate my lunch. It was such a glorious day. This bird tried to steal pieces of burrito that happened to fall out.

Then I headed over to Wise to check out some surfboards. Surprisingly it seems that surfboards are not subject to inflation. They all seemed to be the same price that they were as when I bought my first board in 1999/2000. I didn’t buy one today, but they sure were purdies. Anyways, that’s all.

Happy almost Friday.

So I’ve been hanging out in Los Altos. Unfortunately it was a pretty gloomy three day weekend. But today turned out pretty nice. After eating fresh baked sliced bread all day (which I toasted and slathered with butter), I went out for a nice run. It was a little windy, but nothing too crazy. Then I got to take advantage of the best part about coming home, which was the pool. There is nothing better than going for a run and then immediately jumping into an ice cold pool and for once I’m not being facetious. The pool was 68 degrees and felt amazing. Now I’m laying out. Yay.

At any rate, half marathon training has been going well. I got 4 solid runs in last week, and will be increasing my long runs by 10% every week. It feels a lot nicer to be training with Lily and not with TnT this time. Less pressure. More pasta! I actually think I’m gonna go get a Jamba Juice.

So today is my “official” kick off to summer. Last week I was a little discombobulated from finals and the hot weather. But here are my plans so far…in random order.

I think that’s good enough for now. And today I need to clean. Laundry piles shouldn’t move on their own volition.
