A few days ago my good buddy James Pierce flew up to visit. He had been living in Costa Rica so it is great to see him again. Since his arrival we have been fairly busy. Here are the highlights:
- Went to Bella’s first A’s game with James, Joel, Jen, and Colette. They were playing the Tigers, who might just be worse than the A’s so we actually won the game. That was pretty exciting. Even more exciting: dollar hot dogs. That means I ate four. Not all at once, but that is still a lot of hot dogs. Bella had a great time and so did everyone else.
- My so called friends tried to convince me to use facebook. I don’t want to. It will be one more thing to keep up with. I would much rather blog. This debate created some great conversation and laughs. (Especially at the people sitting behind us, as they acted like junior high children when talking about facebook).
- Ate lunch at the Pita Pit. I know what you are thinking, “This is supposed to be highlights.” Well this is my blog and Pita Pit IS a highlight.
- Played a show with The Art of Whimsy that ended up being 3 instead of 2 hours. I didn’t play the whole time, but it was a little longer than expected. Jordan Emmans played on our second set and that is always a good time. I also had the opportunity to play one of Jordan’s songs with him while Nathan changed a guitar string. It was good times. A bunch of old friends showed up which just makes for even better times. To make the night even better Bella learned how to clap. I think she is as excited as we are.
So that brings us up to today. Looking at it, it doesn’t seem like that much stuff, but it has been busy. I promise. The future holds game nights, breakfast with friends, and a barbecue of fresh salmon.
As a side note: there were too many things to link to on this post.
