Trip Part 3 – The Return

Monday, January 31st, 2005

Back in SLO. Back at work. The trip back was ultra lame for two reasons: 1) I had to leave Sarah behind, and 2) I screwed up and wasted a perfectly good day I could have spent with her. The first one is self-explanatory, so I shall explain the second. Sarah rushed me ...

Trip Part 2 – Fresno/Coarsegold

Sunday, January 30th, 2005

A couple things went wrong on this voyage. First, the tracks between Sacramento and Fresno were washed out. There was no direct train service between those two cities. Suckage. Second, there was an accident on highway 99 somewhere near Fresno which caused our bus driver to take a particularly scenic and rural ...

Trip Part 1 – Sacramento

Thursday, January 27th, 2005

I made it safely to Sacramento today at 1540. First leg of the trip was a 3.5 hour bus ride from San Luis Obispo to San Jose. I arrived at SLO around 0740 (thanks for the ride Myles), got my tickets, and hopped the bus at around 0810. I managed to ...

Traveling and Stuff

Saturday, January 22nd, 2005

I have to say that I love my Mom, but she plays the guilt card like a pro. You see, my Dad wants me to come up and help wire up his new office in Folsom. So I said "yeah, OK... how's the end of February? I have a three-day ...

Mist.

Sunday, December 12th, 2004

It was a clear day today in Coarsegold, sunny and bright. The air was cold, crisp, and refreshing. Fresno, on the other hand, was swimming in fog. The fog continued through Fresno, down highway 41, past I-5, and through until just about the San Luis Obispo county line. Coming out of ...

Updates Galore

Tuesday, December 7th, 2004

It's been awhile since I've posted. Quite a while. As you may recall, I spent the Thanksgiving holiday and most of Cal Poly's dead week stuck on a island out in the middle of the pacific ocean. Wettened by tropical rain, I survived this week long ordeal until we were able ...

Update from Hawaii

Thursday, November 25th, 2004

Happy Thanksgiving, all! I've been safely conducted to Honolulu, and thereafter Kahala, Hawaii. We're staying at my aunt's lovely condo out here by the ocean. We have a view of the ocean and everything. I went two full days without a solid night's sleep. I took mini-naps at home and on the ...

Safely in Sac

Wednesday, November 24th, 2004

Made it to Sacramento around 0315 this morning. Just installed a new hard drive into Mom's computer whilst waiting for the morning to disappear. Leaving for SMF in a few hours. Thinking of Sarah.

Five-Five-Nine

Monday, November 22nd, 2004

My car hates me - or does it love me? I've noticed that I tend to be in one of three modes when it comes to my San Luis Obispo apartment-living: full-time resident (I'm literally home most of the time), part-time (I'm gone for days at a time), and elsewhere ...
