- tex-mas with the tuckers_12.21.09-01.03.10 [74]
- 5 hours of sailing today. Good times.
- Back home after a spur-of-the-moment trip to San Gorgonio... It was a cold-camping, pie-iron cooking, hiking up a mountain good time.
- Made the earlier flight home on standby. Perhaps the airlines aren't 1/2 as bad as I give them credit for being.
- At the airport heading to where I live. Still trying to figure out if it's home. Ready for 2009 to be over, Happy 2010!
- Made it to DFW… my sis is stuck in #Newark possibly till Thursday. Not cool airlines, not cool.
What My Friends Are Doing
- Wes Powell If you have nothing going on for Friday night, you should hit me up.
- Paula Danylevich U2 show in Toronto - 2 tickets face value $530.50 from Ticketmaster. U2 and Ticketmaster and all others involved can go fuck themselves.
- Jack Kapanka Thank you to Dr. Shew for letting me park my roller skate of a car (Honda Fit with bald tires) at the office and a BIG thank you to my neighbor Mike for picking me up on my walk up the hill.
- Ashley Hamilton is going to pull an all-nighter studying for this damn art history test. http://www.formspring.me/badashclimber.
- Sportrock Climbing Centers We're opening at 12pm tomorrow (Tuesday)! We'll keep an eye on the weather for more snow dumpage, so check back here or the website in case of early closings! And don't forget... ABS Nationals kicks off on Friday! SR Alexandria will be closed Friday (2/12) through Sunday (2/14)!
- Gail Benevente about to start cooking for the week...Im gonna be up for a few hours...I know I have the oddest schedule.
- Todd Jordan is more frustrated than a legless Ethiopian watchin' a donut roll down a hill..
- Bill Hamel W/ Brazillian ladyfriend, Thai food, UK movie, then to Crooked Bayou to check out AK1200s set before he and I hit the studio this week...
- Andrew Fromm Selena Gomez, of Disney/Hollywood fame, has recorded and will likely release a song I co-wrote. :) Looks like it will be in a movie also. Super excited. Although, as most of us in the music industry know, it ain't official until it's out on the shelves or I guess we simply say Itunes nowadays. :).
- Jordan Melograna I don't get East Coast homesick often, but the sleddding must be grand.
