im home...

I have been requested to blog today even though I am not out on the road, and will humor the person that wants me to explain what has been going on with me since I have been home.....so here we go....
  Today I woke up, crawled out of bed, put on my robe and immediately turned on the television to what just so happens to be a marathon of The First 48 on A&E.  I watched 2 episodes, muting it randomly at times to pick up my guitar and strum away a song i like or have an idea mind you, and got a buzz from somebody downstairs.  WHO COULD IT BE!?!?!?!  It was FedEx with my order from Woot.com, a 7 inch digital picture frame.  As I stepped out onto the sidewalk squinting from my first glance at the morning/afternoon sun from the day, i look across the street and the FedEx guy is in his truck laughing at me, this is not a joke.  Number one, i was in my robe with boxers and a tshirt, and number two, I had a rooster tail/cowlick in my hair that could have touched the sky.  The FedEx driver knew what was going on at 11:45 on this Thursday, and casually drove away.  I took the package upstairs and put it together ....dude I have been trying to figure out the damn thing all day, and have come to the conclusion that i need a usb stick/brain in order for it to work.  After that I called an old friend who was traveling through Asia for a while and went and got some Pho...... and oh god it was amazing.  I didn't know there was such a gem of a vietnamese restaurant on the Ave.  It was awesome.  The Ave is also full of such scum, so my presents isn't needed there to scum it all up......i'm a scumbag......no i'm not.  By the time we finished lunch it was about 2:30 and I needed to get to the Eastside to change 
the laundry in my parents washer.  When I went over there, I was kindly met by my g-ma, Emily and my favorite little man Leo.  After changing the laundry and playing trains and cars with Leo and chatting with mi familia, I left to come back home to possibly go on a run.  Unfortunately, the run was cancelled and I am sitting on the couch again watching the First 48 as I type this update.  I plan on running tonight, signing up for the Rock n Roll Marathon (I need motivation to workout and really keep a lifestyle where I stay in shape on the road and in general) on June 27th and playing more guitar.  I plan on taking it pretty easy.....deuces from my couch in Greenlake...
