Labor Day I spent playing D&D with my brother Rob, Greg, and John. We had Abbot’s Pizza. It was a great time. :)

Friday I again ran on the beach. 2.5 miles! It was a long day after that, but I wasn’t as dead as I was on Tuesday.

Friday night I went out to dinner with Sangeeta, Teetee, Mark, Julie, Mike, Emmeline, and Eric. We hit Yabu, which was an expensive Japanese restaurant with good (though small) food.

After that we went to Chan Dara where we had banana flambe and ice cream just as Teetee had to leave for the airport.

Saturday morning, Sangeeta and I hiked up Temescal Canyon to the waterfall, then up to the ridge, which we followed back down. The whole thing took us about an hour and 15 minutes. We were pretty quick. My heart was beating at full speed and my lungs were working at capacity, but I made it all the way through with only a couple of brief pauses (at the waterfall and the summit). The running really paid off!

Today I’m paying for it. I’m tired but happy. My ankles are as sore as ever. I had to buy a brush to clean the awful dust (from the trail) off of my shoes.

Let’s see if I can run again tomorrow…

Last weekend was my brother’s wedding. It was nice. We got back Sunday afternoon, glad to be finished with the summer ’05 wedding marathon! Anyway, I posted some pictures here, in case you wanted to see.

Since then I’ve been getting back into the flow of working. It’s going okay.

Last night I took my brother to his bachelor party. I can’t really say what went on there, other than Rob seemed to have a really good time. All his best friends were there. It was great.

Glad you enjoyed it, bro. :)

I just got back from Indianapolis, where I saw my friend Castor make his wedding vows. It was a good trip: a bit of a vacation. Good to hang out with old friends 2000 miles away from work.

I just spent the weekend driving up to San Francisco to attend the wedding of my good friend Ed and his beautiful new wife Charlin.

Got to see all my old friends from New Moon too: John, Liz, Sam, Leslie, Jason, Jon, and a bunch of other nice people I barely know. It was worth every second of the 12 hours of driving. ;)

I’ll be going back for Sam’s wedding next month. Should be fun. :)
