Anniversary

Jedi and I just celebrated 3 years together. Hard to imagine not having him in my life. We've been in the new house almost 3 months now and are almost out of boxes. Hopefully once we have everything moderately organized then we can start on some of the real work, like trying to make this place look like it escaped the 1970s. I mean the glass wall tiles and wood paneling are a little much. I think the front room would look really great in a cappuccino-like color. Not very exciting I admit, but a hell of a lot better then the white, which looks pretty dinghy.

It still strikes me as unreal that we purchased a house. Still, I think we are both trying to turn it into a place that reflects our interests and personalities. Jedi has taken to having a pool like a duck takes to water. There are few days when he is at home that he doesn't find some small bit of time to jump in.

I really love that our place has fruit trees too. The plum tree is full of fruit just beginning to ripen from green to burgundy. I'm crossing my fingers that a large batch is all ready at the same time so I can make jam out of it.

40th Birthday Mooning!

Our friend Blinky celebrated his 40th Birthday this past week and for his party he requested that everyone join him at Mugs Away Saloon in Laguna Niguel, CA for the 28th Annual Mooning of the Amtrak Trains!?!?! Well, folks I can honestly say that this is the one and only time I have ever mooned anything. Does that make me a prude or just another member of the common sense club? What can I say, it was a blast, somewhere between being like the Sturgis Bike Rally and like Spring Break at Lake Havasu. Diverse levels of the dregs of humanity and some of the nicest, friendliest, and weirdest people you will ever meet. We had a great time!

Happy Birthday Blinky, thanks for celebrating in a unique and fun way!
