Suprise Guest!

This weekend started off with the surprise appearance of both Jeff R. from Dallas and Denny from SF.

On Thursday, Jeff R., an old digipen roomate came down to the NW to attend some special Microsoft Direct X conference. I have not seen this boy since forever, close to 5 years even. It was great to have a drink with him and talk the shit of yesteryear.

On Friday, I get a call at lunch from Denny. Turns out he's in town RIGHT NOW for a weekend family wedding! Talk about tellin me last minute. Anyways, he ended up coming into our area, to attend a little get together at Sheldon's place. Even though I only just saw him like a couple of weeks ago, it was good to see him again. Together, we shared our love of Shaolin Soccer to the rest of the party goers. Greatest. Movie. Ever.

Saturday. Went up to Vancouver YET AGAIN, this time I was bring a friend of mine from work who has never been around. I have been promising to show him around Vancity for the longest time and finally, we did it this saturday. Pretty much took him around Richmond and Metrotown and then to Downtown Vancouver. We did a lot of shopping and walking around. It was great to walk around Downtown Vancouver at night, and even though we didn't hit any clubs, just walking on the streets, the city was alived with people and really happening. Vancouver has truely become a great party town. We ended up driving back that night and got home at around 3am.

Sunday. First Sunday in Seattle for the longest time. Mostly spent the day sleeping in to around 1pm, and then I headed to the local import game store to pick up games for the company. Went to work for a bit and then just went home and chilled at home, watching DVDs and cleaning up the place. Its good to be at home and not be traveling (driving back from Vancouver or flying back from SF).

New Photos Albums!

Finally updated my online photo album with the following albums:

--Vancouver Road Trip: pictures of my trip to Kelowna and Vancouver with my best bud Danny. Check out all the fight pics where I start off very far from the ring, only to get RIGHT UP to the ring. Its incredible to watch a fight that close!

--Random Memories Deux: added pics of Denny in a muscle shirt and my company picnic with Akane who happened to be in town that weekend. We ate a lot.

--Don Don: this is a private album of a little photo comic strip I did for a friend. I made it private because it shows pictures of my desk at work and I dont think I am allowed to *photograph* that (plus if you look carefully, you can see one of my business cards with ALL MY INFO!. Let me know if you want to see it and I will pass ya the password.

Enjoy!
