27 Days Till Chile!

Wowhooo yeah 27 days! I'm pretty excited today about my adventure. I still have a hand full of things to do.

1st I need to get my visa! Check this out this out! Their website is terrible. You have to submit all papers by email or via stale mail. Hello this is 2009 have someone develop you an online submission application that is secure. I mean really it's not that hard. It still amazes me how many organizations, especially government ones, that are still in the dark when it comes to these kinds of technology.

2nd I need to move out of my apartment. I wish I would have taken a picture of what my landlords did to my bathroom. I'll post some before and after shots of it and if they aren't done today I'll post a halfway done shot of it as well.

3rd I need my plane ticket! I guess that might be the most important of the things I have left to do. Oh yeah that is why I am saving it till last. I have it all under control.

"This Just In! It's raining like cats and dogs outside!"

First Day of Summer!

I love the first day of summer! I know yesterday was just about as long as today and tomorrow will only be a second or two shorter. But today was the longest day of the year. A total of 25 hours and 64 seconds. And now we'll have a week of it.

Typically I like to get up at sunrise and try to spend most of the day outside. I did get up at sunrise but took a nap till 9. Then I met up with a good friend and went for 17 mile long run. I however got sun burnt on our two how jog through the hills. That sun was brutal today.

Later after recovering from dehydration and eating blueberry pancakes mom, sis, and I went out to see dad at the multi cultural festival in Parkersburg. There was a band called Maidens IV and they were pretty awesome! We feasted at Rubi's Pizza place.

Anyway that was pretty much my whole day. I'd call it a success!

Changing A Tire

Well I was going to type out a long little rant about these ideas running around my head but instead i'm going to go fix a tire. Friend of mine called me to come fix her friends tire. Not actually fix but put the spare on! When I'm a father some day that is one thing I will definitely teach my daughter how to do. I can only think of one girl I know that can do that off the top of my head and she's a hottie. Especially with tire grease all over her. Ok well wish me luck!
