  LAMtastic voyage 

  Today I got to ride in lawrence’s new ride. It’s a dope one too. It’s an infinity G35 that comes complete with a GPS system that talks to you in a Chinese accented, female voice. I think he overpaid for that feature. I would have opted for the ebonics option instead.

  He’s polling for a name for a car. So go to his site and pick a name. I said it should be “Gina” for the “G”35 and “IN”finity, but that sounds like it’s Italian. So I think it should be “Gini” instead … well that sounds forrest gumpish.

  I know what you’re thinking…three posts in a day? Yeah it happened.

  Missed birthday announcements 

  This might be the first time since the inception of this forsaken website that I didn’t post happy birthdays to Dylan and Joel. I did manage to call them, so I guess that counts and you all probably don’t care that it was their birthdays.

  Unfortunately, I couldn’t greet them in person, but I will be able to at the end of this week since I’m heading back to Toronto for a few days. There’s a lot to do, but it feels like everything is happening on friday.

  sister visits. 

  Last weekend, my sister, Eileen, and her husband and my brother in law, David visited me in Seattle. The first went to California to visit a bunch of family as usual. The pictures from their trip sound like they had fun. They were in san francisco like I was a couple of weeks ago and they went on something called the 49-mile drive. I never heard of it and I’m sorry I missed it because I heard it was good. While in Seattle, I showed them to some of my favourite places in Seattle: Greenlake, University district, pike place, the premium outlets, and my work. The dynamics of hosting guests such as my sister and Dave are interesting. Let me tell you why. As you might have noticed from the pictures, Eileen is pregnant! As you might not have noticed from the pictures, Dave has a bad hip that was fixed with surgery after their trip. Seattle is very much a walking city, so you’d think they would have trouble. Luckily, we got around fine and saw many places in the short time they were here.
