happy clown @ lake wenatchee

i thought the place was kind of creepy with all the clowns and all, but they served breakfast all day so i was down to try it out.  OMFG it was super good!  i had 2 eggs + 3 thick-cut crispy bacon + hash browns!  brad had an onion + mushroom + ham omlette with hash browns!  mmm!  can't wait to go back next year!

kahler glen golf + ski resort

nice course, but 2 thumbs down!  we didn't even bother going back to hit the driving range or get our hot dogs...  it was way too HOT out and there was a group of 6 in front of us, a group of 5 in front of them and another group of 5 in front of the group of 5, all of which were playing uber super SLOW!  4 is the us pga max btw.  brad and i tried to skip ahead, but the group of 5 middle-aged-ladies wouldn't let us through and even tried to block us using their carts.  wtf!  who does that? we just left after that.  i had enough sun + shit-heads for the day...

another gorgeous end-of-summer day here in the pnw

chip just sent me the cutest e-card!

looks like everybody's super excited about our semi-annual fish lake camping trip!  i picked up a new tackle box + a bunch of new spinners!  pretty stoked to get my fish on...  woo!

my underarm looks like chicken skin!

i think my underarms look like nasty plucked chicken skin! i'm on my
2nd or 3rd laser hair removal session and i'm not really seeing that
much of a difference yet, but am very happy with the results from my
upper lip laser sessions so i'm hoping the pits pretty-up or
something... ack!

this guy is scary...

ruby + xcode + macports + misc for the osx 10.5.8 g4 mac mini

no one supports leopard osx 10.5 for the g4 anymore since snow leopard and lion are the latest and greatest.  i was hoping to use this bad boy as my little test machine, but i can't even get rubygems to stop barfing on me and can only find installers for intel and x86 versions of software.  grr!

osx 10.5
40GB Hard Drive
1.25 GHz PPC G4
512MB RAM

the boys flooded our 2 of 4 of the founders' office with balloons! i thought it was super cute + worth sharing.  i love start-ups!  :)

upcoming camping weekend in leavenworth, wa

this weekend is going to be awesome! i need a vacation --- even if it's a little one! note to self for future reference: always take a break in between jobs! *sigh!*

groupon tint job + craigslist cargo box

omg yay my stink-mutt-mobile is finally complete! all it needs now is
a good vaccum...

why i won't be buying an hp touchpad even if it's only $99...

i was so stoked when the palm pre first came out b/c webOS had so much potential (loved the multitasking + touchstone charging + device form factor), but ended up having way too many software and hardware problems (i'm on like my 3rd or 4th device) and the apps in the market suck!  when i read hp was liquidating their touchpads for $99 i was kicking myself for not waiting for this deal after having dropped $250 on a nook color b/c i'm a cheap ass, but realized it was running webOS and was like "oh nevermind..." since i'd be hard-pressed to buy another palm-now-hp-webOS-device ever again!

examples of some of the issues i've encountered:
• cracked screen @ micro usb port (this also happened to 2 different devices)
• too many cards error (this happens pretty regularly)

• locking up when taking photos

• stuck in headset mode (this has happened to 2 different devices)

btw, i LOVE my rooted nook!  i would definitely recommend hacking it to anyone looking for a inexpensive e-book reader/interwebz/casual gaming device!
