So we have a 1976 VW Bus is making the 2,871 mile journey from Spring Valley, CA to Trumbull, CT. How awesome is that? Thank you eBay.

So Amber and I were at Lowe’s looking at ceiling fans. We picked one out, they only had the floor model left so we decided to buy the floor model. It was originally $119.95, then it was reduced to $85.00. Since we bought the floor model we got even further savings and with tax it would up being $70.13. Excellent.
I asked how to tell the difference between the lighting and the fan pulleys, because if the chains were identical there might not be a way of figuring it out. She looked at me like I had two heads.
“The light is the longer one. Hadn’t you even had a ceiling fan before?”
“Nope.”
Her father is coming over today to put the fan in, hopefully by the time we replace all the light fixtures in the house that we don’t like (this replaces one of three on the first floor) I’ll figure out how to put these things in myself.
Normally I don’t loat about my job but this weekend takes the cake.
Friday night - Richie Havens. I mixed “Freedom” and “Here Comes the Sun” and “All Along the Watchtower” from an artist who either wrote the song or was there for the beginnings of all of it. So very cool to meet such an awesome person and artist.
Saturday night - Leslie Gore. Yeah, I mixed “It’s My Party”. Fuck yes! So awesome and a fun show. Amber locks my kesy in my car and the girl at AAA knows who I am! Very cool. We got into the car in less than an hour thanks to that.
Sunday night - < href="http://www.christinaabbott.com/">Christina Abbott (you NEED to know who she is) who has become a friend of Amber and I played a great set before Josh Kelly. Josh Kelly is a cool dude beyond words and writes some great honest music.
And here’s a fun item as well. I have very boring business cards. My name, my job, my email and phone #. No frills, no graphics, no nothing exra. Josh Kelly and Slim (the 2nd guitarist) of the band take a look at go “Cool! Straight ahead with all the information I need.” …which just so happens to be the reason I had them made the way that they were! I’m happy to say the least.
And on top of all of it, I got to spend this awesome weekend with my beautiful fiancee! AND we set a date for the wedding to boot. I’m getting married September 1st, 2007 to Amber Santos. Amber’s so cool.
Rawk!
Holy crap. I never knew Amber and I had that much stuff in our apartment and at her grandmother’s house. To think I haven’t even emptied my parents’ house of my stuff yet either. Every day since June 3rd we’ve moved at least one mini-van load from the old apartment or her grandmother’s house, and it just seems to pile up because we can’t put it away fast enough. Yikes.
