What a weekend.
Thursday I was up till 5:00am Friday morning writing an urban design paper. That was not fun.
Friday I met up with DJBank to head home for the SFHS v. Bell game. Went with the whole fam. Game was great, but SFHS lost, 27-26. Boo. Bellarmine sucks.
Saturday spent the day getting the haunted house ready. Then went up to Cal's first night football game, ever! AWESOME game. Cal's second shut out in a row. 27-0 against ASU. Cal....get this...is now #4 in the nation, and may end up going to the National Championship! WOAH! I'll be happy with Roses. Biggest chunk of the la loma crew at the game in a long while, including the return of Aly and Candice. Tons of fun. Can't wait till next Sat.
Sunday, Halloween. Great time, everything went well, and our haunted house looked better than it ever has before. Towards the end of the night I drove Joella and Chris round MV to look at "Halloween Lights." Mountain View is weird. There really aren't very good x-mas lights in MV come december, but we went through only three neighborhoods and saw three elaborate haunted houses and tons of decorated houses. Hehe.
Monday...well. What a mixed bag. I am a victim of identity theft. Just like on those commercials. Got a bogus e-mail that I thought was from paypal, link took me to paypal.com to re-register on Sunday. It looked like paypal.com, the browser said "paypal.com" but guess what? It wasn't. I gave all my personal info, and got calls from Western Union and e-mails from paypal about attempts to send my $$$ to puerto rico today. Lucky I caught it when I did, and that I didn't have more money in my account. But I spent all afternoon running around MV with my mom, going to the bank securing my $$$, going to the police station, and feeling like a complete idiot.
Watch out people. Trust me, you DO NOT want to go through this. It makes you feel like shit. ALWAYS double check the source of your e-mails, and never give more info than you feel comfortable giving.
On a much happier note, tonight I went to the Jimmy Eat World concert at the Fillmore with Erik, Chris, Seth and their friends. The concert was really good. Jimmy Eat World is awesome, and it makes me so happy that I've found a band that...three albums later, they still resonate with me. They are my band.
I think I like the Warfield better than the Fillmore. The Fillmore is awesome. But for Jimmy Eat World, I think the Warfield works better, more drama (lighting, stage, theatre size, etc.) The awesome thing about the Warfield, however, is the history. All the posters of concerts from 1966 onward hung up on the wall, and they give you one....FOR FREE...after the concert. I was willing to shill out $20 for one. Made me so happy to have that as a keepsake, its goin up on my wall.
Today, my friends, the fate of the country...no, the world...will be determined. By who though? By the voters? By computer touch screens? By sneaky election officials? By the Supreme Court? Holy moly it's going to be nuts today. So VOTE, brace yourselves, and hope and pray for the best.
...and as far as I'm concerned, the best = bush out of office.
VOTE KERRY!
