Wish You Were Here

i was talking to arash just now, and apparently ken hung out all day at his house. odd that he didnt say that when we spoke during the day.... i was actually in the area, but didnt have a chance to visit them. more on that later.....

so nathan's parents were outa town. as usual he was bugging me to come down. and it would have been the ideal time to do so.... what with no parents and all. some seriously good times could have been had. even if he did have to work saturday. there are worse things than hanging out in an archery shop with a bunch of friends..... for example:

the morning started off nicely, which is to say i slept through most of it. after that i did some cleaning and laundry. not so nice. my family and i then set out for the city. we visited my old neighbors (where i used to live... if you wanna see my old house, check out the moblog). we got there late (even given the one hour mexican time extension). we hung out for a while, introduced the dogs... sorta (moblog), catching up on random stuff, my grandma had joined us in SF so she was there too and did most of the talking. my brother and i watched what was on TV.. .which was an ESPN recap of the super bowl winning Baltimore Ravens post season. kinda interesting. then we left. went to south city for my cousin's (youngest brother of the one whos my age) birthday party. i believe he turned 13. he has 2 older brothers, 17 and 20 years old. anyways, upod arrival i was sent downstairs to hang out with the "young cool people" which was my little cousin, and kids around his age huddled around a TV playing X-Box. i didnt even get to play. i was by far the oldest. his 2 older brothers and their friends, along with aunts and uncles hung out upstairs in various rooms. nice. and to make matters worse, the downstairs room (the basement... see moblog) had terrible resception, so i hung out in the backyard (moblog again) where i could actually talk to people. i ate food there too. it was a bangin' party.

what an awesome day i had. so much potential. yet so much disapointment. not that i was expecting much from my cousins birthday party....
