I received this email from Aaron this afternoon:<\/p>\n

“i’m sure you knew this but in case you didn’t i thought it was interesting
\nthat the supersize me guy was born in parkersburg, west virginia. he is now
\nbeing sued. http:\/\/www.imdb.com\/name\/nm1041597\/<\/a> ”<\/p>\n

Now I don’t know if y’all know this, but John and Patsy Ramsey grew up in Parkersburg as well and attended PHS.<\/p>\n

It was Amy’s birthday yesterday. We went to Mi Piace at city center for dinner and then headed over to the theater to watch Star Wars. We had bought tickets a week earlier but didn’t anticipate the line around the block to get in. The showings that started even at 9 already had lines going around the block at 5pm. We decided to sell the tickets and try again Saturday morning when the nerds are tired after a hard Friday night of playing Doom III on their networked Xbox (don’t worry Aaron, present company excluded from that stereotype) and pointing out the inconsistencies between HG2TG books, movies, and radio plays.<\/p>\n

Tonight I’m taking her to Yamashiro Palace for her official birthday dinner. It looks like a really swank place. http:\/\/www.yamashirorestaurant.com\/<\/a> (I’m betting on her not checking this blog between now and when she leaves her place to meet me as this is supposed to be somewhat of a surprise) –note– after writing this for the first time I realized I could just time it to appear on the blog at 6:30 (when our reservations are) so she won’t see it –duh!<\/p>\n

Most of you closer to me already know this – but on next friday I’m moving into a new condo up on Oxnard. The area isn’t as nice as where I am now but the place has many advantages. It is going to run me about $100 more a month than what I’m paying now BUT – I’ll have my own bathroom, my own gated parking spot, gated guest parking, a nice looking furnished living room with big kitchen, right off the freeway I take to work (will save maybe ten minutes of commute-time every day), and my roommate\/landlord seems like a cool guy (look up Selwyn Ward on IMDB.com) that may even start playing racquetball with me.<\/p>\n

Much turmoil in the MOV as my brother moved back into my parents’ house and then wrecked his car… Situation very tense down there from all reports. Glad I’ve got a big buffer zone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
