It's been a fun/interesting last week. Last Saturday I went to Disneyland with my wife Rachel and our neice Emily who is 2 and a half. I met them there after work and we all had a lot of fun. Emily is so cute she loves to go on the train and monorail and she was very excited to go on Pirates of Carribean too. That was the first ride we went to when I got there. Rachel and Emily went on Small World and Carousel before I arrived. I also renewed my annual pass that my mother-in-law got me for my birthday. We live only about a mile away from the park so it makes sense to have one. Emily also made sure that we went on Dumbo which is another one of her favorite rides. We had to get Emily home by 9 so we didn't do much after that (I got there at like 7).
Sunday I didn't do much I didn't even watch the whole Superbowl. I saw parts of it here and there only to check in on the score to see if I won any money. I played $200 in a pool at work with the chance to win $1000 every quarter and $2000 for the 4th Quarter but I didn't win anything. Ryan, my co-worker, won the 2nd quarter and on Monday he bought everyone at work Buonos pizza which is like the best Pizza in San Pedro where I work and grew up. Yesterday at work Carlos, my manager bought pizza again for us which was cool to get free lunch twice in one week.
I'm excited for the week coming up. It's a shortened week for me only work on Monday and Friday and school on Tuesday and Thursday. Rachel and I are going to San Diego for the weekend. I bought us tickets for Seaworld, San Diego Zoo, and the Wild Animal Park for Xmas and were going to go to a different park each day (Friday, Saturday and Sunday). It also counts a Valentines/Anniversary gift. It will be 4 years we have been together on the 28th. Her parents might also join us on one of the day because they will be in town for the AREMA convention for work stuff.
San Diego is one of my top 3 favorite cities along with LA/OC County and Vegas. I would love to live down there one day but I don't think I'll ever be able to convince Rachel to do that. I have loved it since I was a kid when my Aunt and Uncle lived down there and we would visit. They moved away to Hawaii now so there isn't much reason to go down there anymore. My friends and I used to go down all the time and would go to Barona (to gamble) and the Whaley House in Old Town (to ghost hunt) and Sombreros (to eat) pretty often. One time me and Anthony got stranded down there because I got a flat tire on the freeway and I didn't have the lug nut lock key. I called my friend Shaun who was 100 miles away because I bought the car from him and asked if he had it. I remember him just laughing and laughing and saying "yeah! I'm holding in my hand right now" I was so pissed off about it but thought it was kind of funny too. To make matters even worse we were sitting on a bench near a strip mall waiting for our friends to pick us up. We ended up having to call some other friends to pick us up all the way from LA to pick us up and take us home.Out of nowhere these punks threw eggs at us and drove away. I guess this was karma for my water balloon incident. I came back down the next day with my mom and key to take care of it. Even through all the drama I still love to go to back and can't wait for this weekend.
