Yosemite here I come! WOOOOOOOO!


I'll have pics when I return :)

Creating a budget blows. Not only is it depressing adding up all the bills and expenses for the month, but I end up having a panick attack thinking that I'll end up as a beggar on the streets of San Jose.

No fun.

To contribute to my excess spending, I recieved an outrageous bill for my health insurance (evil!). They couldn't have picked a better month to send the bill. Instead of billing month to month for the summer, they decided to clump three months together. *Argh!*

Anywhos, I'm going to sulk myself to sleep and dream that a money tree will grow in my room. :)

So last night I had dinner with my small group and we chowed down on good 'ol greasy chinese take out. Everything was going dandy until I was chewing on something that didn't feel quite right. Turns out it was one of those tiny red hot peppers that are meant to be placed on the side of the plate and never to be eaten...EVER.

Holy moly.

I couldn't even feel my taste buds and I thought all of them got nuked by the evil pepper. I ended up downing a liter of milk before my tongue was back to normal. Needless to say, my tummy wasn't very happy.

Jeff and I made a trip to Southern California this weekend and for the first time this summer I stepped foot on a beach! We arrived late Friday night (delirous and tired) and hit the beach Saturday afternoon. The skies were clear and the air was warm. It was perfect... until we started to head home and hit the worst traffic in history. To top it off, it was one of those traffic jams that existed for no reason. No car accident, no major merging, nothing! By the time we got back, I felt like a big puddle of "blah". Soon after we cleaned up and headed out to dinner. It was fun. Good food and lots of laughs :) Unfortunetly, we had to head back the next day and go back to the "real world". *sigh* Nonetheless, it was so good to see everyone. :o)

Congratulations Marc and Shanta! :) I miss you guys. Come back soon!
