The return.

Well I have two more days and I am back to The D.C. basically everything is taken care of, I just have to take care of some minor things like cell phone and some bank stuff but other then that I just have to get on my flight (which is the sketchest flight ever, who the hell is independent air and how can they afford to charge half the price of even southwest?! as they say in the cinematic masterpiece Robot jox "Crash and Burn") I guess I can recap this last week though so far. Saturday there was the Ooh-LA-L.A. Burlesque show (I didnt understand the name Mage had to break it down for me) with Paulos, Ariel, and Mage. I am just going to comment that giant champagne glasses are awesome for sooo many reasons. Sunday was poker at the Mendelsons, almost like 40 people playing and one of the most well stocked, I mean quality and quantity, open bars I have ever seen in a house. I came to play though and not to drink unfortunately. Monday I went to the bris of my cousin Pollys new baby, Shai. Now being the youngest in the family this is the first baby I have really see up close, and he is actually a lot cooler then the way babies had been described to me in the past. I may have to reconsider my stance that they are whiney, smelly, mucus filled leaches, because he is actually a badass little guy, he didnt even cry when they attacked his equipment with a knife. After that I went to some battle of the bands at BB kings Blues bar in Universal city walk, got tanked and rowdy at the bar and had a good time. Tuesday I was taken out to lunch by grandparents at Cheesecake, then Dinner by my aunt Hide Sushi (its still one of the best), and then went to Johnny Rockets with Mukai and Pualos and saw 40 year old virgin with Paulos and Mage at Le Grove. The grove is a rip off but awesome theater, 40 year old virgin was rad, Boner Jams '03... Then today Tea meeting in the sleepy beach community of Malibu a.k.a. The 'Bu, and then dinner with the grandparents. That's its so far, tomorrow plan right now is prob lunch/movie with Jordan, then go see Jimmy Kimmel live taping with Mukai, Mage, and Sarah W (I dont know if we have green room privilages anymore but it should be good times anyways). THEN America Ninja with Senior Ethan Emerson, and all else who wish to bask in its sweet righteousness. Thats all I got time for, cause then comes the day getting ready for school. At least packing shouldnt be too hard since I still havnt unpacked on of my two bags from Japan. Oh why cant my parents just buy my way through school like Billy Madison. Since the camera is still broken, I leave you with this *delightful* picture of me with a tree taken somewhere near Hakone, Japan.

As expected.

So basically I am not going to do any kind of recap on China, the time window has been closed. If you want to hear rambling stories they will just have to be on a one to one basis, possibly a three way. I have been busy since coming home with such highlights as Roscoes chiken and waffles, drunken dancing with many hippies, my cousin is giving birth, baseball games, book stores with ENGLISH books! (okay that one is exciting to no one but me but, uh, meh). Lots of good times, a little too much booze but I took it easy last night so I think I should be okay. Anyways just wanted to update and let people know that I put up China pics. I have two more weeks at home, so if anyone wants to chill it better be fast because I am running out of time and the plans are filling up the weeks fast. Oh and in other big news bootlegged DVD's are awsome, except for bewitched that movie was so terrible it hurts me to even write this sentance... Waiting on mod chip to start playing the ps2 games but when I get it all those foreign games I wont be able to understand will be hit up, starting with みんな大好き塊塊. No pictures on the web site for a while after this probably because the digicam is broke and it will take as much to fix as a new camera so I need to wait until I can get a job and get some cash back in the account before a new one is coming. Unless someone wants to buy me one, I will do slutty things for it I promise.
