  • 1st Fishing Trip

    Tuesday, Jul 28, 2009 2:30PM / Members only

    Last week, we took Thursday and Friday off to spend with the kids. So, on Friday, we decided to take the kids fishing for the first time. Our son's godfather (an avid fisherman) was more than happy to take us. So, he brought his kids (his son is my godson) to a pier off Ft. Point in Crissey Fields. No license needed when fishing off a pier. It was windy and cloudy, the usual SF summer weather.

    Neighboring fishermen went crabbing and brought this up...which was then given to the kids...what was it??? It's Patrick! (no...not AnD's Patrick)


    Fishing SF-style...with coffee and hot chocolate below


    Sea Lion!


    My first fish!!!


    Mine too!!!

    Want to write something, talk about writing something...don't write anything...sucks. How's everyone out there? Lots have happened...and in no particular order (esp. at this hour)

    Started to workout, first time in many many...MANY years. Started Muay Thai with my good friend, Kru Danton. It only took 1 year, 5 months, and 19 days to fulfill my 2008 resolution...yes, 2008! Felt good, soooooo winded. Never done it before, but I like it.

    Acfourten joined in her old wushu class workout...first time in...10 years??? Kids were there, they seem to like it...and like mom doing it....except our little guy...think he only wanted to have mommy hold him.

    Went to Disneyland in April...again. Going again in December...unless we sneak a getaway weekend....Daughter wanted to go today....mmmmm...That's a long drive.

    Daughter graduated from pre-school today...took the day off...choked up....yes, I chocked up....Mommy cried...we're saps...what can I say, but that I'm very secure in my manhood, I can "talk" about my emotions. :P Needless to say, I'M SOOO PROUD of her. She was sick all week with fevers, but made the rehearsals and did wonderful...then we all went to the new Academy of Sciences...we're members since January, but this was our first family visit. Anyone who lives in SF, knows it's a madhouse there.

    Summer=BBQ & Grilling....need I say more....First up, Italian herbed chicken...success...next up??? dunno...

    Bought a new TV for Mommy day...plasma...want bigger...think this one will go into the bedroom or family room to make way for the biggest one we can find (and afford) It'll make us dizzy, but I don't want to keep tormenting myself..."Should have gotten the bigger one"...

    Re-org our junk...funny how much a little shed can hold.

    Watched my godson compete in the inter-school tourney at Tat Mau Wong...So proud of him, he took a silver...with a huge smile. Our kids didn't understand the concept of "winning" a medal...they thought it was handed out like at a chinatown fair. :)  So crowded, heated words were exchanged between our family and another...but everyone knew they were wrong and they kept mouthin' at AC...ooooo, those who know her, them's fightin' words, but she and I spoke our minds to him and kept it cool (as a good example for all the kiddies, esp ours who were between them and us) What happend??? We were in front and they (family of 4) pushed their way in front of our kids and then nudged them behind someone where their only view was the guy's butt. Then their dad also pushed his way in and almost knocked AC over, then said, "What is your problem? I was just trying to get to my family!" We said, "We were here first." They replied, "Well, we were waiting here for a long time!" Huh??? Who the F cares when you got here, right? If you were here that early, you'd be in front of us already, right??? A-holes! Sorry....But at least others around us pointed to him and told him to Shush!

    Well, other than the last bit, I'll try to elaborate more next time on other things, but that's it for now.

    To all the dads out there...Happy Father's Day and Sleep in!!!

    I may be biased but I think NYC pizza is the best. If I remember, you did manage to grab a slice the last time you were in town for business :)

    Yes! Sun Wah Kiu! Their apple pies were heavenly - crusts that weren't too thick and doughy, apple filling that was neither too sweet or syrupy. $6 for apple or custard pie. Wahh. I guess the sifus retired. Dad used to take me there for a dish of strawberry ice cream, jello or pie. Maybe I bumped into you and stuck out my tongue at you around C-town. =D

    Dream theme. Hm, don't think I ever caught that or I didn't notice. Christmastime they have some nifty lights, costumes and attractions - esp Small World. Love the colors during that time of year. So you go about twice/year? Where do you stay?

    oh yea... Nancy Noble is still there... she's the only nice teacher who will be left next year... hahaa... they have quite a few new teachers, it seems... neither Dr. Edwards or Dr. Chen was at the opening reception... but I think they might be sticking around...

    Not sure when you'll see this comment... but the exhibit will be closing today at noon... hope you'll have a chance to check it out before it closes.. hahaa... or else you'll have to wait until next year... =)

    Glad to hear you're not abandoning AnD. FB is fun but I still like it better here. Like you said alot of nice peeps :) Hopefully you'll get back to a groove on here soon. Disneyland must've been fun for the kiddies. You and AC are so good about taking them there =)

    Yeah the tix prices are pretty ridiculous at the new Yankee stadium. In past years, they were almost always filled but this season there are plenty of empty seats. They just announced plans to lower pricing yesterday. I'm planning to go to a game in June probably. Hubby is going tomorrow night and seeing the game from a suite which should be nice. One of his vendors is taking him. I just hope the weather holds up tomorrow. SF had a nice win against the Dodgers last night. I'm always impressed by Linececum and it was pretty cool that Bengie Molina who has to be one of the slowest players ever get a triple.

    I've been good. Healthwise, never better. Thanks for asking. Not too much luck on the job front. I think I may just look into temping for awhile cause I want to give the photography thing a try. Glad you like some of the new photos. I have my lasek procedure scheduled for 5/15. I'm finally going to take the plunge and do it. I watched a surgery being performed on a consultation and it didn't freak me out so that pushed me. Prices have come down too.

    Oh I like your backing up trick. Must try that one some time. You don't want to resort to stuff like that but sometime people leave you little choice.

    Haven't see you on here much lately. What's been keeping you busy?

    Thank You very much for your feedback... and you weren't being too critical... =) I appreciate your comments... you make very good and valid points. I will definitely make the change. I actually wanted to change the writing bits on the contact page so what you said is a good start. =) Thanks a bunch!!!!!

    The thing about Nick Adenhart was quite shocking and tragic. I think they had a moment of silence in remembrance for him before all the games yesterday. The season is still young and everyone will get into their groove soon enough. Your team is currently leading the NL West I think.

    That massive claw was was indeed from a gator as confirmed by Toni K. Ip, AnD's resident reptile expert. It was so big and gross.

    We're rooting for Carla now too. She's really come on strong lately. I thought Stefan would be a goner for sure esp. after the way he talked back to Tom. Too bad about Fabio :(
