Congratulations to the happy couple!

My sister and her partner got married on Aug 29 and celebrated their marriage with family and friends yesterday.

I loved their cake.

That’s their twins singing karaoke together. They really enjoyed singing together. Only 4 years old, they amaze me every time I see them.

On a related note, vote NO on prop 8.





At the doctor’s office

At the doctor’s office checking out a workers comp injury. My elbow hurts. I’m bored waiting so I thought I’d blog.





Mural update

I drew in the black lines to paint over and colored in some of the heart images. I still need to fill in the off white color and fix the mistakes but feel I’m in the 90% completion rate.

Panic?

1 10 2008

The other day I went out for breakfast and bought the paper. As I sat down to eat I noticed I was the only customer in the place. Then I open the newspaper and felt it was the right moment to take this pic. I’m thinking the same thought, now what? Craziness.

Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad!

My parents celebrate their wedding anniversary today. I think it’s their 49th? I have to call them to confirm. Regardless, it’s really one of the only long lasting relationships I know of. There’s my parents and my girlfriends parents. Makes you wonder…

I met Obama wearing my picpoket_77 hoody!

28 09 2008

I met Obama! Crazy and wore my blue picpoket_77 hoody! Short story, on Sun, Aug 17, I had a one and a million chance to work for a new pilot show George Lopez is producing. I got the gig because my friend Jacob couldn’t make it, thanks Jake! I met George Lopez, great guy, humble and cool. We setup the shoot at the Fairmont Hotel, where Obama planned to speak at a fundraiser later that afternoon. George was shooting a promo for a new show that included Obama, the shit was funny. Less than 5 min Obama was in and out but before he left I managed to get a picture with him. The reason the quality is low is because my good digi cam’s battery ran out when I was going to take the picture with Obama. Another crew member used his cell phone to take the picture you see below. The experience was cool and unreal. Viva Obama! Go out and vote!

The picpoket got covered, but it's to my left over my heart.

This is the good quality digi cam shot I got before my battery went dead.

Chasing Whales

26 09 2008

Claudia and I drove down to Pacifica to try to catch some whales pass by but we didn’t see any. Instead we enjoyed the sound of the ocean and the beautiful sunset.
