Post #165- An Extreme Sunday Funday

An early AM breakfast at Lucca Cafe and it was time to drop off my parents at the airport. Seemed like they were here for a long time since we did so much this weekend. They really like Irvine, so I'm sure they'll be back soon.
Pig & Vinh have been wanting a punching bag for a while now and since the Sunday paper had a Big 5 ad, we made a detour and picked one up. "How many people does it take to hang a punching bag?"

SundayFunday at Jay & Syl's new place. Lakers won. Boo. Too many celebratory shots. WAY too many. Push ups for Speed = greatness. I was just too fast for John...

Post #164- Graduation Festivities


My parents and I went to Gardena today to visit my grandma's sister, my Great Aunt. She and her husband are both in their 80s, and it was nice tp see that they are both in good health. She looks exactly like my grandma!

Later was my cousin Jordan's graduation dinner at Blue Water Grill. The fam got together and Pig came along with me. Funny times...congrats Jordan!

To continue the eventful night, Pig and I met up the cousins after dinner at my favorite spot, Mesa. Thanks to Jason being friends with the bartender, we loaded up on Greyhounds and Henn & 7s. After some conversations and a few drinks, we all called it a night. The night was still young and we went over to Niko & Daniel's new pad to celebrate Daniel's sister's graduation. By the time we got there, they had blown through a few bottles. After catching up and seeing Andy christen their new carpet, called it a night again and headed home.

Post #163- Friday Funday!

Good day at work today!

We had a working lunch scheduled for our quarterly update meetings. Food coma inducing lunch- meatloaf, mashed potatoes, veggies, and chocolate chip cookies!

Around 4:30pm, I got the funniest phone call. My Dad called me and invited me to Happy Hour at YardHouse! Turns out my parents and aunt were taking advantage of the YardHouse happy hour with my cousins. They are in town for my cousin's UCI graduation and decided to get some drinks before dinner. So random.

Met up with the homies after dinner and seemed like they had been drinking for quite awhile. JK tapped out and will be happy to see this gorgeous artwork tomorrow morning. :)

Post #162- The Parents In Town!


After work today, I got home and was lucky enough to be greeted by my parents! They landed this morning and got dropped off at my house. They brought me all sorts of goodies including Mom's Beef Stew, beef jerky, and homemade won tons! Gotta love when the parents visit! :)

We went for a yummy sushi dinner and followed dinner up with a visit to Trader Joe's and Ralphs for some groceries. The Woodbury Ralph's has these new grocery baskets....goofy looking!

Post #161- Wow Wednesday

Nothing exciting today at all.

Early AM meeting with the team. First time presenting in front of a large group at work. Not too bad since it was just a small group. Hooray for breakfast burritos though!
