6 months ago

6 months ago was my last entry. So many people here now. It's great! Lots have happened for us too within the last 6 months. Part of my absence has been due to FB...yes, sorry! It's hard to spend time on both places. So far, it's been an interesting year. Kids are older, doing more things now. They talk, we converse...it's amazing...I talk to them on the phone....whoa! They do grow up fast. Biggest change is...I was laid off after 7 years of loyal service, oh well, it's business. It's time for me to move on anyways. I guess I'm one of those that just need a kick in the butt once in a while. Going to enjoy the next few weeks playing with the kids before jumping back into it. Going to do the little things I've pushed aside, things that were going to be taken care of when I have time...well, now I do. So, hope you are doing well out there. Enjoy the summer...go fishing...play...or just take a walk. Have a good one!!! I will! :)

1st Fishing Trip

Tuesday, Jul 28, 2009 2:30PM / Standard Entry

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!!!

I'm a true San Franciscan. Was born in the same hospital as Bruce Lee. Went the same high school as did O.J. Simpson (yes, he did it, not thrilled about that) Graduated from the same university as did Danny Glover. Can you guess them all? I ran my own company for 10 years, then got the dot.com bug. People still wonder how I was able to work with my wife, but that was never an issue, actually it was one of the most fun time I've ever had...work related. Became a dot.bomb casualty, then was an employee for the State (I was collecting unemployment) Finally landed in this ad agency producing those wonderful catalogs you throw away from your mailbox everyday. My wife is a former wushu standout (she hates it when I refer to her as former nat'l champ). Have 2 absolutely wonderful kids that make me want to win the lottery and just spend time watching them grow up. That's about it all in a nutshell.
