Okay...haven't posted in awhile...
Been pretty busy the past couple of weeks. Celebrated Belle and Cici's birthday at Medieval Times and Broomballing afterwards. Sucks that it ended in a 6-6 tie, but I'll take it cuz the blue (better) team tied it with Cicely's goal with just a few minutes left. So she gets my vote for the number 1 star of the game. Come to think of it, it would've been cool if they had the time up on the scoreboard so we can see what the score was and how much time we had left. Oh well.
The day after, we played our softball game, losing 19-13. Seriously, even though we haven't won a game, its amazing how much we've improved since day 1 of practice. Afterwards, we had our Thanksgiving fiesta with the crew at Belle and Cici's house. My freakin prime rib took forever to cook. I should've bought one smaller. So I got fed up and served most of it medium rare. And it sucked cuz it didn't finish till everyone was done eating dinner. So I dont think anyone really tasted it. Oh well, all good tho! Nothing but fun times that night.
Best moment from Catch Phrase:
Me: 'When a girl shoves a dude's penis in her mouth...like all the way in her mouth.'
Belle: 'DEEP THROAT!!!!'
Good job Belle with the correct answer! (Boy did Lou turn really red! Hehe, love you both!)
I had a pretty good Thanksgiving weekend with the familia. My sister came up to Oxnard with her family. Its pretty rare we get to spend the holidays together, especially with my sister and her 4 kids. But it was fun, had plenty of food. Karen also came up with me, which was our first Thanksgiving together. Funny how we ate most of the leftovers in two days. It was pretty cool watching Office Space and Anchorman, and seeing my parents crack up constantly during both movies. Good Times!
This year, I actually took advantage of Black Friday. Karen and I woke up at 4:30 am and headed to the local Best Buy. When we arrived, the line was wrapped around the building, ending at the loading dock in the back. I forgot that the next nearest Best Buy was in Thousand Oaks, which is about another 20 miles south. Unlike where I live in Irvine, there's about 5 within 20 minutes from me. So the crowd was huge!
We supringly got in right away. I managed to get a few DVD's that were cheap(Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, and Anchorman). Afterwards, we headed across the freeway to Sport Chalet where Karen bought new Burton snowboarding pants for only $60. Later that day, we went to Target and got more DVD's. Karen completed her Harry Potter collection ($6 each) and bought the Family Guy Season 3 set ($18) and Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story ($9). Karen and I also bought two Scene It DVD games. She got the Scene It Movie Edition (and freakin wooped my butt in it) and I got Scene It Sports Edition.
My dad also took Karen and me to the Navy Exchange. They had a 25% off sale on all Nike's so I picked up a pair Air Force I's for only $45, no tax!
We also attmepted to hit the outlets afterwards but couldn't find parking. So we booked it for home.
Funny, all the shopping I did was for myself, none for Christmas shopping. Not to mention I bought a new suit last week for a wedding in January.
Crap, I'm starting to feel sick. I hope I don't get too bad. Ski Dazzle is this week!! Must continue shopping!!
Pictures will be posted soon.

After getting shut down last week 7-0, we won our hockey game last night 3-1. We played against another team that should be in our division, but the problem is that they couldn't skate. They were flopping everywhere. It was a penalty filled game, where the refs were calling a bunch of dumb penalties. I even picked up 2 minutes for slashing this dude, and I barely touched the guy. Our goalie covered the puck, the whistle blew, and this dude still jabbed at our goalie. I didn't really like that, so I just tapped him on his shin and said to stay the fuck away from my goalie. We were toe to toe for a bit, then the refs separated us and I went to the penalty box for that. What kind of bullshit is that?
Oh well, I picked up an assist on a 2 on 1 break. I burned two guys in our own end, and skated in. I faked the defender as if I was going to shoot, and went he dropped down to defend me, i flipped the puck over his stick to my teammate and he one-timed it in. It was like Gretzky to Jari Kurri all over again.
So now I have two points for the season, one goal and one assist. Of course I wished I had more, but hopefully next season will be better. Last night's point goes out to Belle, celebrating her birthday tomorrow. Happy Birthday Belle!
On to other things...
One thing that's been really bugging me is how fake people are, especially at my work. Of course, working at the Orange County Performing Arts Center, there's drama all around. I'm sick of people claiming that they're some, "Broadway Star from New York" or even stupid shit like they're from another country or state. Give it up! Until you actually have a contract and have an agent, or if you actually lived in that place you claim to be from, keep that shit to yourself. It's freakin annoying.

I'm freakin tired...
Had a busy weekend. Went to Pinks to grub on some hot dogs and chili nacho cheese fries. Then watched Bobby rock people's socks off with his band. Granted, the musicians were dope, the singer...ehhh.
Saturday, Karen and I went to the Kings/Predators game. It was an awesome game! Check out the pictures! The Kings were down 2-0, then they scored 2 goals in the 3rd to force overtime and a shootout. Pavol Demitra and Jeremy Roenick scored both goals, and Jason LaBarbera stopped 2 shots, which resulted in the Kings victory. The suite was awesome! This would be my 2nd time in a suite, the first at Anaheim Stadium with Ryan. Food, beer, desserts, snacks...all free!! The only thing I paid for that day...$5 parking off of Francisco Street. I already wanna go back!
Our softball game was a lot better on Sunday. Tho we lost, it was cool that we scored 8 runs and went past the 5th inning! We're improving! Then it was off to Oxnard to help my dad fix my brakes, which we didn't finish. So I had to trade cars again for the week.
I'm tired...haven't done this much driving in a while.

Awww yeah...check this out!!
We finally won our hockey game! No not this time by forfeit, but by 45 minutes of hard work and grinding. We played another team that is sort of at our level of play. Not like other teams that shouldn't even be in our division. But it was a good win. I scored another goal on a breakaway after I stole the puck away from a defensemen, then shot between the goalies pads. I wanted to roof the shot, but I had the defensemen closing in on me. I freakin missed an open net too in the opening period, but got my chance again and didn't miss.
So this goal is dedicated to both Karen, for witnessing her first goal I've scored, and to Kristine for watching her first hockey game ever. Thanks for coming out!
Looking forward to the weekend. Going out to watch Bobby's band tonight. Tomorrow, I scored some free Kings VIP Suite tickets at the Staples Center from work (courtesy of the L.A. Times), a baptism afterwards, softball on Sunday, and stopping by Oxnard to get my brakes fixed (Boo!)
Gotta break in my new Jordan cleats for softball, so I can make more diving catches and eat dirt afterwards. Yummy!
