Snowdog was in town for an interview, by in-town I mean in the general Southern California area. It was neat, hadn't seen him since San Francisco.

Quick version of events.

Stowed my backpack in the trunk with recyclables.

Chatted with Snow and Viv while driving out to Anaheim.

Hung out at Viv's house for a few hours. She apparently cleaned for our arrival. Her son commented that it was odd that the place was clean , after he tried to con me into feeding the dog. What's with kids these days? :wacko:

From there we wandered down to the block while waiting for Rich to get off. Viv said something about skater boys... they were all twelve, if you didn't count the ones standing in a clump smoking cigarettes, I doubt they were old enough to purchase the cigarettes though.

She mentioned Step up 2, or some other grossly marketed failure of the Hollywood studio system. One word -- Vetoed, with prejudice even.

Rich called shortly after Viv procured her Jamba Juice, so we left to pick him up. From there we did the mini-golf thing.

I stink at mini-golf, or anything that has to do with balls really. (I'll leave a therapist try to figure that one out). Nevertheless it was a good time, i even managed to get a hole in one... twice. Low point, gnats... thousands of them wafting in the early evening breeze, looking like those patio misters at restaurants in palm springs. So it was an interesting mix of swing, duck, and run to an area that wasn't over run with the little buggers. Not to mention a good laugh was out of the question, extra protein need not apply if you catch my drift.

Anyhow, I even managed not to come in fourth place, that was all Viv by about 4 strokes... Now she is going to say its the stroke she enjoys.

Dinner was Ancho's again, a good place, and they do have killer tortillas. Atmosphere is a tad bland, doesn't mean I didnt enjoy the view

This is where the 95 shades of red comes in; Yeah, I sorta zoned out into my own little world for a second. So the world happened to be centered around the hind quarters that belonged to the next tables waiter.

next thing I know a Viv's hand is slapping down on the table, and she is all "So Caught" to make matters worse, Snow and Rich were both staring at me a smiling that 'we know what you were looking at' smile. Yeah, caught scoping out the waiter...

If you were there you would have been checking him out too. Honestly though, there were two, The one waiter, and one of the bus boys. If I could have convinced our less appealing waiter to wrap the two of them up in a doggy bag...

After Anchos, and my complexion returning to a color of normalcy we decided on hitting the movies and seeing Vantage Point. Um yeah so maybe Step Up 2 would have been better, but Im sure there would have been a row of just as annoying girls crying rape in the seat behind us. and don't even get me started on the train wreck on the screen. Just reference grossly marketed failure statement from above. Bad just... yeah bad, save your money, or really teach them a lesson for releasing this .... stuff and go find a website to download it off of.

Man this is getting hideously long...

I guess I'll save how my uncle completely forgot the drunken conversation I had with him on New Years Eve, hell he even forgot I was there, for next time
