When I was a kid in El Cajon I used to literally walk through a chop shop on my way to school and we always thought it was a good neighborhood compared to Chula Vista or National City.

Today I found out that I'll be getting filmed for a movie about a messenger chick Monday night. If any of the Chicago squad wants to join, they still need more people. It's 830pm Monday night at Thompson Center. Free food, drinks, and a goodie bag.

Out fishing with Annie on his lap, a cigar in one hand and a ginger ale in the other, watching the sunset.

Today, I raced a thunderstorm on my FG and won! I got rained on! It felt great. I almost got trampled by the trees that were running for the puddles, though. I also had to break up a fight between an oak and a maple over a dog.
