Motorcade

So, Monday I went out about 6ish.. I was about to get on the freeway when all of a sudden a moto-cop cut off the car infront of me, and wouldn’t let anyone get on… The stream of cars quickly died off on the freeway, and over the next 15 or so minutes about 50 more moto-cops went flying past…

Finially after sitting there for 25 minutes, we start to see something, lots of flashing lights and such coming down the free way. I figured it was a high speed chase or something, and they had closed off all the on ramps or something…

But, it ended up being a motorcade, for either Gov Arnie, or Blair… Not sure which.. So that was kinda cool to see. But the bastards were only going 55, and we got stuck right behind them. Ugh.

I can’t wait for tomorrow. I leave to go home. Everyone has really been pissing me off lately.

I’m being moved into a cube today over at the Yahoo! Center.

Ever since I updated my site to use Ajax, my google page rankings have been dropping. I’m not really sure why. I’m working on a new non-ajax theme to see if that combats the issue.

Umm. Yeah.

SD Pride!

Woot! So after 2 years of living in Cali, I’ve FINIALLY made it to San Diego Pride! So, lets go back…

Friday after work, I met up with Jason and we headed down to the beach for a few hours. Hung out there and chatted and ate grapes and cherries and such. Had a good time, after that we went out on a bike ride. We weren’t planning on going too far, but ended up doing 30 miles again. So that felt good. Our goal is to get to Santa Monica and back soon… That’ll be 50 miles.

Got back to his place about 7:30 and we had a martini. When your blood is going hard core like that, you get drunk REALLY fast! So mental note people! From there we both showered (seperatly) and then went out to dinner. We went our seperate ways after that cause he was going out with people and I headed down to Orange!

Got there and walked in and pretty much went straight to sleep, cause I was a bit drunkish and VERY tired! Got up at 8am Saturday morning and Andrew and I headed down to San Diego. Robert cancelled on us at the last minute Friday. Which kinda pissed me off, but whatever.

Got down there at just the right time, as they were closing off the streets, found parking and went to RBB’s place, met her and then went and watched the parade! Sooo many hot boys! It made me feel so ugly, but lately I’ve been feeling kinda sexy too…

Me!

Anyways, we stared at the hot boys and such and watched the parade. It lasted FOREVER! But we stayed to the end! After that we walked down to the festival thing which was kinda stupid. Not worth the $12. I mean, perhaps if you went to the beer gardens or something.

From there we headed to H Mary’s for dinner. Had a great time there, and then headed out to the bars. Started off at Flicks, which was nice. There was a group of hot boys, the lesbian with them talked to us, but we couldn’t get the hot boys to talk to us. Sad. 🙁 The lesbian told me I was really hot. Some old man talked to me, he’s apparently from WeHo, he was nice.

After that we went to this house party. There were so homo’s there, but not any I’d make out with. Some really hot straight boys, but sadly they didn’t want to make out! haha. Of course Andrew made out with someone.

Got home about 2ish and we all crashed. Got up Sunday morning and Andrew and I went to some Art museum in San Diego. It was ok.

My camera broke too. :'( Well, just the LCD screen, which is a $60 replacement part. And apparently I can replace it myself. So that’ good. But means that I’ll have to deal with no LCD screen while in Iowa. 🙁

Overall the weekend was GREAT, no drama, no fighting, just fun times! 🙂

I have to work at 3:30 again tomorrow morning. 🙁

So far my week is pretty busy though. I’m hoping to fit in at least 20 miles the next three days, I’ve got a dinner date tonight, a lunch date tomorrow and then Wed I’m packing and have to have Carlito over to show him where all the stuff is at for the kitties while I’m gone. Thursday I leave right after work! 🙂

I’m tentitivly scheduled to go to Las Vegas in early Sept! I’m excited for that. 🙂 Speaking of Vegas and thus, gambling.. I also invested nearly $10k this weekend into three very high risk mutual funds…. They are 100% managed by computer forcasts. Seems like a fun thing to do, hopefully they will continue on the past 3-years, and manage to pull off the mid-20% return they’ve been getting! I’m really nervous about them though.

Adios!

Stable 1.0!

Yay, today I’m releasing the first stable version of the software I’ve been writing! 🙂

I’m very excited about this… It only took 19,582 lines of code! YAY!

Last night I was up late working on a new component to it. This new thing won’t be ready till next week, but instead of e-mailing attachements in HTML with Base64 encoded images (which apparently aren’t supported by IE, screw you!) I’m using PDF’s now instead. So yesterday I spent the day finding something that can correctly read the style sheets, etc. Then I spent all last night getting the one that worked the best to work correctly! And it finially does! 🙂

BTW, I’m using html2pdf.

[private] Yesterday, I was debating about deleting certian people from my friends list on myspace.. IE, Dustin and Joel. So I went and read Dustin’s profile, and found a rather odd comment about me on his page by his neighbor, the oddest part was that it was from only a few days ago. I Think to myself.. WHY on EARTH is this bitch talking about me? So I go read her page… Dustin had written: I thought you might want this. I think you might want to apply, lol. You know, Chris is lonely and needs a boyfriend for the weeK! You might just need a strap-on 🙂 And then had posted my blog entry about the BF application. So then I start thinking… Who else has he said such things to? So I go through his top 16 or whatever, to find that he had posted the EXACT same thing on a few other people’s myspace pages.

How childish, first. Secondly, WTF? Why is this dumb fuck still talking about me to people when I haven’t even spoken to him in a MONTH! So now it makes me pissed to think what other TRASH those three are telling people around the LA/OC/SD areas. Since they hang out at the bars so much. I’ve heard from a few of my friends what they are telling them. And if that’s what they are saying to my _Friends_ I’d hate to hear what they are saying to complete strangers about me!

Ugh, it just pisses me off so fucking much. Jackasses. I fucking hate faggots. [/private]

I had tons of plans yesterday, but got ditched for them all. It kinda sucked and was good at the same time. First I was supposed to have lunch with this guy JT, he was in the area for the day, said he’d call me at 1. He finially called at 1:30 and said he was running late, which was fine. I was on my way home by that point. Said he’d call when he was done with his errands. About 3:30 he calls me again, but by that point it he was already back in Long Beach, cause something came up, or whatnot? I dunno.

Then I was supposed to go play tennis with this other guy, but we couldn’t find anywhere free around here, and I didn’t want to drive up to LA to play. And then lastly, I was supposed to go biking with Jason, but his friend was dropping something off in the area and wanted to hang out. So yeah. So I went on a bike ride by myself, and then of course right after I got back Greg called wanting me to go to the gym with him. I was too tired, so I said no.

It all ended up being good though, because I was able to get that PDF generator to work, which means less stress today for Stable 1.0! 🙂

Adios!

All American Rejects!

AAR Concert last night ROCKED!

Sooooo much fun, even though I’m DEAD tired this morning. LARGE amounts of coffee shall be consumed today.

Alex showed up at my office shortly after 5, we hung out there waiting for Robert. He got there, we drove over tot he Fair, even though we got lost. 🙁 The 405/55 were horrible, so we were just going to take side streets, but we clearly missed our turn somewhere.

Got to the fair, yummy smells commenced. 🙂 We got brats to start, then I had a funnel cake! Yummmy! I can’t wait to get back to Iowa where the REAL fair food is! Lamb burgers here I come!

After the food, we wondered around some and then went to the stage. Hung out there waiting for the band to start. Saw a Jay look alike, although shorter and he didn’t have as nice an ass. haha. I could have also sworn I saw Stephen Oda there, I txted him, but the bitch never got back to me.. I’m sad that we never hung out more often, he was a nice guy.

The first band came on, some crazies from Boston, Mass. They were pretty good, but no one really got into them.

They left, and then there was like an hour of stage crap… And finially the Rejects came on! Woot! They were great… And so fucking hot! 🙂 Yummy.

After they were done, we went over and rode the farris wheel and then left, Robert and I were dead tired!

On the way home, a motorcylce went flying past me, weaving in and out of the HOV lane. He had to have been doing 110+… Shortly after that there was a CHP flying through traffic, swearving from the left shoulder over to the right sholder and back… If that CHP ever caught up to that moto boy, he’s gonna be in a HELLA deep water… Not only for speeding like a MOFO, but for also weaving in and out of the HOV lane and I’m sure 8 million other things. haha. Sucks to be him!

Not too much else going on, still trying to plan for this mess of a trip to San Diego this weekend. Thank god I just got a check for $80 in the mail, so now I don’t feel so bad for spending the money to go down there

I found out yesterday that the CD player in my car doesn’t work any more.. Add that to the list of other things that don’t work… 🙁 So I’ve been hard core looking into getting a new car again… I know, I’ve been talking about this for like 2 years, but still! I will _eventually_ actually get something.

I’ve found a nice 2005 Audi A4 Convert… Not including the $6K base cost over the Civic I’m also looking at, it’ll cost me ~$2k per year that I own it over the cost of the yearly civic costs. (Ie, insurance, gas, registration). So yeah. I dunnno if it’s worth it. It looks so fucking nice though! 🙁

[private] I think that Jason is starting to hint that he likes me… like yesterday he kept trying to get me to come to dinner last night and stuff… Who knows, maybe I’m just reading things wrong [/private]

Lance Bass is gay! Yay! What a fucking hot bitch.

Exxon Mobil made $10.4 BILLION in profits… Umm, excuse me? Why are we being charged so much at the pump again? That’s fucking $1,318 a second!!!!

I’m out!

PS. What’s wrong with me? I was just watching the KCCI news coverage of RAGBRAI and randomly started crying. WTF?!

30 Miles!

Ouch…

Jason and I did 30 miles yesterday. We weren’t planning on it, but we just got started riding and then just kept going and going. Made it all the way to Marina Del Ray, and saw where the fucking outrigger team is based. Which just happened to be the point where I was telling the associated story, so it was kinda funny. We also think we witnessed some woman giving birth on the beach… Well, there was a lot of firetrucks/etc. And the woman had her legs up in the air. lol

I’m enjoying hanging out with him, he’s very nice.

[private] I’m starting to wonder if maybe we should move onto going out for a date, and see if that would lead to anything. During our bike ride we complained about a lot of the same things with boys. But then I’m affraid if it doesn’t work out, then I’ll lose a good friend. [/private]

Work yesterday was a complete waste. The internet was down for 2 hours. Then once it came back up, I had like 800 people IMing me to do stuff. Needless to say, I didn’t get much done at all.

Nothing really exciting going on here. I’m heading out to Chino, CA today with Carlito. That’s going to be one LONG ass drive!

Adios!
