-Washed Delilah, she had that offroad sheen that made all the 4x4's and rally cars jealous in the bay area.
-Loaded some ammo, getting low on the varget..
-Watched an anime called Saikano. It's ok, kinda odd, but typical japanese psychological mind trickery by using children as weapons of war. All the implications of war, losing people, loving people, etc.
-Made Calderetta. Mmmm

Today we drove around, doing menial tasks, shopped a bit, rested for the madness to ensue in the following weeks. Our main goal today was 20 safety pins, these items were the hardest things to find. Target had them though, they heal all wounds.
I have now reached a level of 'shove it up to the man' that it's pretty cool. It involves my cell phone and my ancient plan. The ancient plan came with 4mb a month of data, which i never used on the trusty Nokia 6230. Now though, in emergencies, i have access! mwahahhaa!

Dream:
a few days ago i dreamt that i was driving delilah around. All i remember after that was making a left turn. Can anybody decypher that one?
Today fluffielady and i decided to visit the westlake shopping center. Especially to Linens and things, most things were 50% off, and there wasn't much there. So my advice is, if you have a King or Cal. King sized bed, you have quite a selection of sheets available. And if you want towels and some plates, they too are 50% off. Fluffielady was looking for a bedskirt and found one. Bedskirts, what are they for?
Shopped around, the place was pretty packed. It was a whole lot different before the remodeling.
Cleaned up the house a bit, we need to take on my room and see what we can compactorize. Its going to be fun, the trick is to take a section at a time, or it'll overwhelm you..
Finished The WitchBlade Anime Series. Typical love conquers all ending. This time it's about a moms love to her children. You need to be in the know or else it'll be just like the Matrix 3 ending. People go *wha?*
I gotz the iphone to 2.0.1, first time, i accidentally got itunes to put back the settings. It looked like it worked but the email got buggy, i couldn't modify or delete my mail settings. So i had to reflash again. It does seem a little faster than 2.0
Oh yes, i forgot to put my latest of Toasty Productions. First-Person (bicycle) view heading down O'Shaugnhessy Road from Portola. I recorded my way up Teresita Blvd. but it was lame, unless you want to see some uphill uphill. Quite nifty what this Canon SD450 can do.
The mount is so secure that it shows every bump on the road that i hit. And it shows how messed up the streets are in SF. Thats why i bought a dual suspension in the first place. Hmmz, maybe i should install the camera on my downhill bike and see the difference.
But by doing this route, my commute has been extended from 3.8 miles round-trip to 6.2. Not bad, i need something more to go with, and with cars behind me, it entices me to pedal a little faster.

Today is a cleansing day.
Nothing like shrimp flavored ass kicking kung-fu ramen!
Today i was tempted to go ipsc, but when i woke up i didn't have the desire to go for it. So i did something rare, i cleaned my room. Yes i just heard a bunch of people faint and hit the floor but once in a while its time to clear some old magazines or empty boxes, etc.
I also used the last of the winchester small rifle primers on some 600-yard 80 grain bullets and on some 55 grain ballistic tips. I also cleaned up the reloader, that too is a once in a while deal where dust n crud start gumming up the primer loader bar.
I took a stroll to Classic Bowl and its mall area, man it's trashed, literally with garbage strewn about and cars left n right. I guess theres a chinese restaurant or a dim sum house there, its packed to the brim. Theres also an asian market but its named Manila Oriental Market (M.O.M. the insignia says). Its huge like Ranch99 but not as clean. Prices are about the same, cheap for asian stuff, not so for Jif peanut butter or Smuckers jam. I did get a back scratcher, ahh yea, and that kung-fu ramen. I think i used to eat that brand when i was little, i kinda remember the blue n white colors.
The best item i saw there was 'dead crab 3.99 / lb ,' don't you want live crab? how long was it dead? And whats rabbit fish?
Anyway, i went to the bakery, across from the supermarket, and got some Empanadas and Turon (filipino fried bananas wrapped in egg roll wrappers) and that was lunch.
Washed Delilah, the funny thing, is when i put the wax on, shes so faded that it doesn't look like theres any on. So i coulda left it on, wouldn't that be extra protection?
3 Loads of laundry was done friday, so i'm ready to roll. Who wants to fold mah clothez?

Didn't really do too much today. I got caught up on 2 weeks worth of Bleach and Naruto (4 episodes total.. Ooo) and a Ghost in the Shell Movie. Did some laundry, thats about it.
I ordered a tidbit from Hong Kong for Capt'N D and i looked at the return address on the package and it was this:
Check out the returnee's name. For those who need translation, the way you say it can mean 'BBQ Pork Fried Rice.' Almost as good as Sum Yeung Gai.
Fluffielady returns from her jaunt in LaLaLand. It was ok, she got nasty sick yesterday, =\ But shes ok now =).

Today was kinda odd.
Woke up at 4:20am, tossed about till 5am, so i stayed up.
-Installed DD-WRT on my WRT54G. it was pretty easy installing. It's like OEM plus for the router.
-Didn't really do much the whole day, i actually took a nap at 1:30 or so. The Rav4's check engine light turned on as we were driving home from Brians, yesterday. When it turned on, i didn't feel any kinda engine disturbances. Today i looked at the 2 boxes of fuses that the car has. The thing has tons of fuses! Nothing looked burn or popped. So i got a OBD-II reader on ebay.
-Napped with the cat. Woke up around 4:45pm. My standard naps is about 1 REM cycle, unless i force myself a wake up time prior to napping.
-Ate psudo chinese new years dindins at the olive garden. Most chinese restaurants were all booked! My brother picked up his DS. woot!

Level Of Difficulty at Work: 0.35 out of 10
Time During Lunch: Short
Lets see since high power we did quite a bit.
Sunday-
We added a bit of tax work from 11-3 or so. Mainly fluffieladys work stuff. Write offs up the yang. Hung out at Pauls haus n chilled with the kiddies.
Monday-
I liked the Chronicle and a section about silly presidential bumper stickers. My Fav is : "Monica Lewinsky's Ex-Boyfriend's Wife for '08"
Tuesday-
Went to vote and when i signed up to vote in college under the green party. Since California is a modified closed primary, and theres no green party folk to vote on i was given an option that some computer chooses on the registry: Non-Partisan, Democratic or Independent. Thats not fair, if i can choose Democratic? Why can't i choose Republican? So i ask and i need to vote on a provisional one. Which is Hand processed. So i might as well stir the pot some more, busting an address change since my address seems to be in limbo. So i vote.
Today-
Went to costco and trader joes, bought some weird stuff, water, etc. Banannas are excellent at $1.30 for a bunch.

The Label says it all..
I'm so doing nothing that i've found an interesting flickr site to do something. OctoFerret is a lover of San Francisco and he has a little game called Guess Where in SF. He's posted 650+ pictures, some very abscure (a corner, some tiles, shadows even) of places around SF and yep, try to guess where its at. Most have been taken, i got one and i know where another is, i just need to check it out when i go back to work.. Wednesday..
So if your bored and happen to know where a certain set of stairs are located, go scribble him a message. Or scribble me a message and i'll scribble him a message.

Time for some high power, not the dream stuff that i just had.
Weather was excellent, blue sky pretty clear and very warm. Going up the golden gate and then onto the richmond bridges wasn't that bad, but i got to the range slightly late. So they tell me, the only spots available are on the 3rd relay. Ugh, do i really want to wait? i tell them i'm out, then they say that theres others shooting the 3rd as well. Oh i thought it was only going to be me on the 3rd relay, fine why not, i crossed 2 bridges and my stuff is here, lets do this.
200 Yard Slow Offhand: 184-2x
200 Yard Rapid Sitting: 95-2x
300 Yard Rapid Prone: 94
600 Yard Slow Prone: 95-2
Total: 468-6x
Horrible, i had a few shots where i should have stopped, but i decided to keep at it. Yes thats the overholding. My shots are getting sloppy and the past few months i'm not feeling it anymore for this anyway. Busting out the Rock River AR once a month to practice at home and then once a month to shoot doesn't really sharpen the skills. Since i've reached my goal of the master class, that was kinda it, done. The other other goal i wanted was to become a Distinguished Civilian Marksman, but that involves traveling to either East Sacramento or Coalinga to shoot in the top 10% to score points that will accumulate. I want something more challenging, something in the further distances, 300-400-500 yards. But i think the only thing closest to that are the 600 yard matches in Sacramento. Beh, wake up at 4am, drive 2+ hours to the east side of Sacramento, i dunno about that. There aren't that many long distance ranges in the bay area, Livermore used to have one, but they closed the long range stuff due to the housing madness. Yep you could blast out to 800 yards in Livermore, those were the good old days. Lately, fluffielady and myself have been feeling kinda bleh. Bleh! i tell u! What to do what to do. We don't even have anything planned for this 3 day weekend. merp!

The world is coming to an end!! Da in-laws are now in the 20th century with *Ooooo* Cell phones!! My aunt got them going with a basic moto moto and was a bit more pleasant than usual, probably cuz it wasn't the usual hectic weekday madhouse at the store. She wants me to switch over cuz she got played by Cingular and hates them. But i like the fact that unlocked phones and Sim Cards make it easy to bounce from phone to phone. Also the plan that i have is still cheapest of them all, which is wierd since i've had the plan now for 3+ years usually more and more minutes get tacked on at cheaper price points. Not anymore. Remember the days when a cell plan was 60-minutes a month at 30$ and people only used it after 7pm for the unlimited nights / weekends.. ahh yea the good old days of racking 2000-4000minutes a month. Now i barely use mine, i think i'm averaging 150-200minutes a month now.
Roamed around ate at Neiman Marcus's Rotunda, it opened at 11am and we arrived just as the sign was pulled away. We sat right at the apex of the circle tables overlooking the windows. Neato!
Hmmz, lets see what else.. The new front door knob is done, now i gotta find someone that'll cut a hole on both the door and the metal frame for the deadbolt. Tommorrow my brother and i are gonna go medieval on both my Moto and Jenny's Rav4 for some DIY-maintenance. Galfer HH+ Brake pads!! here we go!

Chillin..
It's nice to have a day to do nothing, it's been a while.
Went to the Back Craka- i've noticed that the past two days i felt taller while on the snowboard. Cracking your back works! Mailed some stuff for da Fluffielady, bought some groceries, did some laundry, messed with the fish tank. Caught up on tech news n found some nifty videos. Both involve skillz:
2-year old Playing Wii Tennis:
Two things about this kid. 1) he can skip the replay scenes with ease, and 2) he gets kinda vocal when trying to hit the ball. Silly Cute Kid!
This is the real tokyo drift. Precision style:
Way better than the helicopter opening beer bottles!
