ups tracking and natural disasters

while tracking the package of a purchase that i had made recently, i saw that the latest event in the tracking log of my package was described as NATURAL DISASTER.
i’ve never seen that before, but i’m a little concerned about what that means. does that mean that my package was involved in a natural [...]

wanted - blockbuster of the summer

paul, leeya, jim, judy, and i went to go watch wanted last night. jim scored us some free advanced screening tickets and we were able to watch the movie before opening day. since i don’t watch any commercials these days, i have no idea what movies are coming out and what to [...]

another nail in the tire

i just happened to glance at my tire today on the way to lunch and something shiny caught my eye. not shiny like a pretty penny, not shiny like a diamond ring, not shiny like the ever-so-hard-to-find wii fit. no. shiny like, why-is-my-tired-shiny shiny?
so upon further inspection, i see that there’s a [...]

finally got my movie

my favorite movie of all time is serendipity. this should come as no surprise because i have a soft spot for romantic comedies. what is a little surprising is that i always think that i’m not really a big fan of john cusack, but i think that he does a fantastic job here. [...]

later in the part of the [...]

alice summerthing

i decided pretty last minute to go to alice’s summerthing at golden gate park on sunday. i wasn’t too familiar with the bands that were playing, but after doing a little research, i realized that i really liked them. for an event called summerthing, you’d think that it would be warmer than 60 [...]

somebody get me out of here

*sigh* it used to be that weather here wouldn’t get quite so hot. but with 100+ degree weather, i think it’s time to find some relief. the big question is where will i go to find it?

mobile phone charges

my current plan, which i have had now for as long as i’ve had a cell phone is a super basic plan. i get plenty of anytime minutes, free nights and weekends starting at 7pm, and, of course, free long distance. what this plan does not include is a data plan or text [...]

getting eaten alive

last night was a pretty rough night. it was hot, i think the lows were in the high 70s and the house was hot. i woke up this morning because i was so hot, i couldn’t sleep anymore. i also awoke to a ton of bug bites. i hate a bite [...]
