nearing the end of the penant race,,,,,,

ok, so we are winding down the regular season. Unfortunately , my Mariners are slipping behind in the wild card race. Now don't take me wrong...I have not lost all hope in them...I'm just really excited to see how the post season is going to unfold. Anyway, just had to ramble about baseball a little bit...oh, and good luck to everyone in the race, and for those teams that are pretty much out of it, have fun and try to at least be a spoiler!!

lunar eclipse ............

so i got to watch an absolutely clear and unblocked view of the eclipse from my backyard!!! Had my sons stay up to watch it, started around 10:58 p.m. hawaii time. Was totally eclipsed by 11:55 p.m. It had the coolest red / orange glow to it as it was fully eclipsing. I hope all of you had a chance to see it.. it was definately worth staying up late & sitting in a beach chair in my back yard. Good times..............

baseball update

oh yeah... another little tidbit... good luck seattle mariners for the division or wildcard spot!!! if you haven't been watching all season... now is the time!!! my daughter always asks me " why do you like baseball so much?" my response: i just do, for me it's an interesting sport, i think all the statistics and variables is what intrigues me. For those of you who don't already know... I am a seattle mariners fan!!!! i also like the dodgers in the n.l. race. I found that once I understood the game, I can't get enough of it!!!

lunar eclipse ............

so tonight is the lunar eclipse... it supposed to happen around 11:00 p.m.(hawaii time). i guess it wont be as visible again until 2010. hopefully i'll be able to get a few pictures tonight...then i will post them tomorrow... should be pretty cool. For all the rest of you on this side of the world... try to see it... it's just one of those things you should see. tell how it went tomorrow.................. ;-)

...so a month later.....

ya,ya,ya...i know...it's been like a long time since i posted anything. sorry, sometimes you are just busy with life. It's been a hectic month...thankfully, all the kids are back in school!!! There seems to be a quiet calm around during the day.
anyway...soon i will be posting some pics of my new turtles!!! Zero & Flash... I wish there were more exciting things going on in my life, but i pretty much work six days a week, take care of the keikis , watch a baseball game on t.v. when i can, go to the beach on the one day off a have a week. Such is the price of living in paradise........ until next time... don't forget to have your pet spayed or neutered. See ya......

yes...i'm still here....

ok, it's been a real long while since i posted anything. The reason for this is as follows : 1st off...........my f#cking computer broke, oh snap!! Had to get a new motherboard...once it was finally installed, i had to recover and reload windows & all that other crap. So I have been out of touch for a couple of weeks.........it's so nice to be back.
ok, couple things i wanted to say..... i realize its after the fact, but here i go........fourth of the july : yeah, lets celebrate the white man raping and pillaging the land from the indians - woo hoo- also you can celebrate your independence by blowing something up!!! anyway, enough about that....just had to say my piece ...
anyway, now that i'm up and running again, i'll be telling more stories soon...................

trip from hell - part 2

ok...so let me continue. I went to salem...woo hoo.... i swears that place is the armpit of oregon. So I go to my old work...worked there for 5 yrs as the sous chef, then worked there again for another 9 months or so. It's been a little over 2 yrs. since i left salem. Everyone is stoked to see me, the owner's first question to me is..."so when u coming back to work?", "remember... i will always have a space for u here. I'll fire someone if I have to!" Talking to my old chef was great, got to catch up on whats been going on with everyone. Now, let me explain the relationship I have with my "capn'"(thats what we all call him, not chef...but capn') He and I are tight....really tight, but it's not in any type of sexual way...I was his right hand, we talked about everything...so anyway, i tell him what the owner says about me coming back, he laughs and responds with..."I'll fire jeremy(the ex-boyfriend,yeah he works there now, after I left) right now if you're coming back!!!" I thought that was funny. Any way the rest of the week was pretty boring...but let me tell you about the plane ride home. So I get to pdx at like 8 in the morning, my flight leaves at 10, so we're all good. Plane boards on time and everything. All seems well... until about 30 minutes into the flight. Now remember my flight here i had the screaming child 3 rows in front of me...so now I luck out and get the infant 3 rows behind me who starts wailing....again luckily this only lasted about 3 1/2 hrs(again just a 5 1/2 hr flight) So needless to say... I hope I don't have to fly anywhere anytime soon... I hope you enjoyed this tale of my so called journey... trip from hell!! :-)
