im watching darjeeling limited. i'm a bit over wes anderson right now, but i don't hate it. we saw wall-e tonight. it was fun.

if you want, buy a ticket to see randy newman on the 2nd at the hollywood bowl. we will be there. there also may be a jamout happening on saturday for people who can play instruments and sing.

summer rules.

tomorrow is the last day of school. it has been a better year, but i am tired and ready for summer.

my summer will consist of the following: remodeling a house, going to hawaii, hanging out a little. it will be busy and over before i know it.

happy father's day to me. jack bought me this:



i am happy.

1. we had a fun practice in long beach last night.
2. it is friday.
3. we are doing stuff to our new house like ripping up carpet and tearing down walls.
4. i will have a father's day this weekend.
5. i will jog and stuff today.

jack eats.





oh... and if anyone wants to come to my birthday celebration at the hollywood bowl july 2, you can buy tickets via ticketmaster. randy newman will be playing songs and the dodgers will be celebrated.

we started jack on solids. by solids, i really mean liquidy mush. he seemed to really enjoy it. we made him two bowls. one plain and one with arby's bronco berry sauce mixed in.

yesterday my mom and i took down the cottage cheese ceiling in the living room of the new place. things are starting to look rad. today she's taking down the rest of the cottage cheese. then we start the demo process.

today we're finishing mr. smith goes to worshington.

we had a nice weekend. friday, we went to bakersfield and saw people we hadn't seen in a while. it was nice and we ate hamburgers. saturday, we went to the new house and began tearing things up. we got through two of the rooms and uncovered some sweet hardwood. that afternoon we went to j. patterson's b.day for a bit (until jack started not wanting to be there), and that night, matt pool and i hung out with matt o'brien at the new house. matt needs people. good people and prayer.

sunday we went to church. book club. band practice. my taco.

church was alright. book club was fun (i made cool new friends). band practice= two new hit songs. my taco= some really delicious pork thing in a hot chile sauce.

we got home too late to do anything (actually it wasn't too late- i was just burnt).

now i'm in class getting things together for the end of the year and watching mr. smith goes to washington. one of my students said jimmy stewart looks like keanu reeves. a different student, confused, asked if jimmy stewart was in the matrix. i said yes. then another student said he was ugly. i said be quiet. she said, what? it's true. i said be quiet again, but louder and more grouchy. she then said sorry mister and got back to work.

not much new. finishing up school stuff and everything. hot fun in the summertime.

went to the dodger game last night with jayson, m.pool, and nate b. it was fun. we made many jokes and talked about stories. road stories and such. anyhow. i didn't run, which was a bummer, so i'll have to go three times around today. i'm also maybe going to write some music with andy, but i'm not sure exactly.

we went up to big bear with the pools. last time i was there i crashed my car. this time was much more fun. we played some cards, drove around a little, did some fishing, relaxed, and dealt with issues of the gut. everything was amazing and needed- except for the issues with the gut. i think i might have an ulcer maybe. i'm not sure. all the signs are there- i won't go into detail here, but i may have to go get my insides checked out. worry, stress, apprehension, and too much coffee probably caused it to occur.

in other news... nothing.
