Solana Beach, CA. is boss. I going to have to come here with the wife for vacation and just chill out. The weather is awesome and from what I've heard, for the most part, it's the same all year round.
I'm staying about a block from the water. And all around this place is real estate/homes that cost more than all the houses on my cul de sac.
Calypso Cafe is a nice little dig we came across while driving around checking out the sights. I've only been in this traveling game a couple of months, but this is definitely the best food I've had on the road.
Speaking of driving, we spent (we being another sales guy and an engineer) quite a bit of time rolling around contemplating how much the real estate was and what exactly it is all these rich mofo's around here do for a living.
That and enjoying the great looking joggers that must have multiple sugar daddies to pay for the Benz's and Lexus' they have parked in front of the beach.
I guess you have to take the good with the bad with this traveling though. Luckily I wasn't sitting in my hotel room when my 5 year old called me all choked up because Lassie fell into a waterfall.
It did make the Stella I was drinking go down a little quicker though.
Off to bed.
6am = my departure time tomorrow = me surfing the internets for another hour and a half.

I just saw this mindfuck for the first time this past weekend.
Little late, I know.
Loved it and I'm not even sure what the fuck it was I saw.

Heading off to San Diego tomorrow. Solona Beach to be exact. Our distributor's office is right across the street from the ocean. Slam some beers and then try not to fall in will be my mission.

Watch The Simpsons at work.

Sitting on the toilet and being able to reorder your Netflix queue online with your Blackberry is what technology is all about.

I've said it many times before, but the money I spend on Sirius Sat Radio every month is money well spent.

My girls return tomorrow night.
What girls you ask?
The. Gilmore. Girls.

I just spent 10 minutes trying to find the precise time Autumn starts. That it took me that long in this day and age of the internets/Google abilities was quite alarming and quite frankly, I began to panic.
Ahhhhh, but now that I know the exact, precise moment in time that Autumn begins, I can go ahead and begin my annual embrace of the season.
I'm not really sure what it is. The combination of football, the anticipation of the holidays, Halloween included, the weather at least acting like it's going to change and of course, the colors of nature changing, just get me all mellow and peaceful this time of year. So much so, that I literally count down the days.
And it probably has to do with all the great memories of my life somehow having taken place during the final part of the year.
I won't go into a long drawn out thing about my personal beliefs here, (I lean towards the Buddhist persuasion of thinking) but I believe that Autumn is when I can see my ancestors and the echoes of my past in everything around me more than at any other time of year.
Yes, I know, that last statement was pretty out there, but, preside out there I do. <~~~~wins most commas in a sentence award.
But I digress...........

Do yourselves a favor and get some DVD action going with this list. I promise, you won't be dissapointed. Especially with The Wire. It's not just a tv show, it's a work of brilliant art.

I love Survivor. It's something I can watch with the whole family. My kids love it. Between this and Survivor Man on The Science Channel, I'm betting that one of my sons ends up ebing some sort of outdoor type dude who can build log cabins and find food in the asses of flowers and trees.
The whole seperated by race thing, totally blown way out of proportion. It hasn't even really been that much of an issue. Yet. And actually, it's interesting seeing the dynamic within each race's tribe. People of the same race may be more prejudice and have jacked up perceptions of each other than of that of a person of a different race. Whatever you define race as being, but that's another debate on someone else's blog.
And of course, which group looks like the biggest set of dipshits so far, The Spics. Purposely throwing a challenge so they can vote someone out??? Fools I say. That have no clue what is waiting for them down the line in show and they go ahead and purposely lose a player and become a man down? Again, fools I say.
See how much fun that sounds?
Survivor, still the best mindless adventure you can have on a Thursday night.
--------------------
No travel this week, but next week, I'm off to San Diego for a few days.

It's Friday. I'm sure I could back over this post and edit some shit, but fux it.
As soon as I have something of any significance to post. I'll let you guys know.

Hi. I'm back. And stuff.
Much has gone on since my last post. A promotion at work. My youngest had his first day of school ever. My oldest is a freshman in high school. And my middlest wants to "retire" from soccer after this fall season and go back to playing football next fall. (American style)
Promotion you ask? I've been upgraded to the Regional (Sales) Manager type. This entails me traveling quite a bit. Like for example, right now, I am sitting in a hotel room in King of Prussia, PA. Question, does it always rain this frakkin' much in PA.? Christ on a Harley it's wet here.
This traveling, not only I, but the family will have to get used to, yes. But, it's something I just feel like I have to do. For me to progress to a new level of scratch (scratch meaning here taking my financial situtation to a new level = being able to do more for my family), this is the path that needs to be rocked. And rock it I will. Like a motherfucker. Watch.
So here I sit in King of Prussia, at a desk that is located way too close to the a/c unit, finding myself suddenly inspired to begin posting here again.
Music you say? Funny you shouldn't ask.
The Silversun Pickups. They are completely running the show in my music department right now. And yeah, they sort of having a Smashing Pumpkins vibe, but while I am fan of the Pumpkins (what have they done for me lately?) I was never on their sack of bollocks like some of you, so I am gonna go ahead and like these guys more right now.
Silversun Pickups
Go ahead rock yourself out to "Well Though Out Twinkles" and "Lazy Eye".
P.S. If someone post on a blog and no one reads it, is it still a blog? <--(Carrie Bradshaw style motherfuckers!)
