Okay here we go, my update of great fun.

1. My life as of late.

Well basically I am just working with Math, and have been playing a whole lot of World of Warcraft. I have been doing better in my math class, and I hope I can atleast pull off a strong B in the class, which is very doable, maybe even a low A. We'll see. I have been talkin to Jackie a lot lately, and I mean a lot. It's great I enjoy it very much, I probably have her chewing her nails with hatred and despair everytime I call her, but I guess she will have to learn to deal with it. Because it is a lot of fun, and something that has been the perfect end to my evenings :D

2. My wonderful Trip to the City of the Gay.

Well it started out, really early, about 6:30am. Which at that time I was ending my 2nd hour of sleep. Since I was up till about 4:30, talking to Jacqueline. So, yeah, I was slapped out of bed by my mom, took a shower and got ready. My father arrived home around 7:15ish from his nightly duties at work. We packed everything into the car, and hit the road at about 8:30. I had to stay awake because my dad was going to sleep in the back, since he worked all night, and I had to keep my mother company. So, my dad slept for like an hour...but the thing I found funny was my dad got more sleep at his job then I did at home. He told me he got about 3 1/2 hours at work. But he doesn't have someone as cool as Jackie keeping him up. More like I am keeping her up, but I don't think that is relevant. So after awhile my dad decided to take over, driving, and my mom got in the back for some rest. And after a couple more stops, I finally made it backthere, and just laid back, and enjoyed some Phil Hendrie. I got like 30 minutes of sleep, before I opened my eyes, and found we were entering the mystical land, the city by the bay, the realm of homosexuality, the home of the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco. So we were coming across the Bay Bridge, which by the way, I think is more impressive than the Golden Gate Bridge, and I don't know why it is the one cast away in the shadow of the Golden Gate, but whatever. We make it off the bridge into the city, I listen to my parents try and navigate through there, which leads me to my next paragraph.

The Traffic of San Francisco
------------------------------------
Could this shit be any worse? I mean, signs telling you that you have to make a right if you are in this lane, only to get up to the interection and see a sign that says One Way with an arrow pointing to the left. I mean the whole damn thing is one way streets, it is a serious hassle to drive anywhere in that city. To get to something down the street, means you have to take this intricate path all the way around through various one way streets, basically doing a circle around the city, and bam you arrive at your destination...which is why, we walked everywhere. It's a fun place to visit, but the way the street system works down there, is a major factor as to why it shall never be shown on any form of identification of mine, Current Resident of the City of San Francisco.

The Hotel
------------------
We have stayed at many Holidy Inns before, and they are usually pretty nice. We arrive at this one, and we let my mother out to go check in while we park the car in the parking garage. My father and I grab a few bags, and head up to the lobby. We get there, my dad goes over to the counter where my mom is, and they are talking to the guy, and it seems like way to much dialogue is being exchanged for a simple Check in. Check-ins should go somehting like this. Customer:"Yes I have a reservation", Employee:"Yes I see this right here, you are in room (insert number), Enjoy your stay at the Holiday Inn :D(smiley face included)" and that is all. But this is dragging on into 1 minute, then 2, then 3. My mom comes storming over, and I say to her, "Sweet Jesus what is the problem?" She then proceeds to inform me that they are telling us that there is no rooms. Wtf? No rooms? Well Holiday inn, you may be booked up, but the fact that we have a reservation means that we are part of the reason why you are booked up. You can't take a reservation then give the room away. Let me break down the meaning of the word reservation so you can understand it a little more. Reservation: YOU KEEP THE ROOM FOR WHOEVER PAID FOR IT. Goddamn, well coolios for us, we had the piece of paper showing that we made a reservation with these jackballs. So they told us that we would have to come back at 6pm, and there would be a room for us. Well it was about 3pm, so we had a few hours to kill. We went back down to the garage, and put our bags back in. My dad started to resort everything in there, and instead of helping, I was watching a spider build a web. Which if you have never seen, it is quite interesting.

Now let me go off on a bit of a tangent here. Watching the spider build the web just was a very interesting experience. True I hate spiders, but when they aren't trying to violate me and rush my base, they are quite a fascinating creature. I know that the basic knowledge of what they have to do is by evolution and genetics burned into their memory, but it still amazes me that from birth a creature, like a spider knows how to build these intricate webs. I mean, it was like he had done it many times, but that was probably it's first time. So i watched it for a little bit, and eventually he was almost done, and my mom came over and looked at it, and I turned to her and said, "Now that he is done, and spent all that time I should toss a rock through it"

Ripleys Believe it or Not Museum and the rest of the Evening.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
So, since we had time to waste, we decided to head on over to the Ripleys Believe it or Not Museum. One of the most fascinating place. It has so many odd things, that make you want to scream WHAT THE FUCK? It is great, I wish I could have spent a lot more time there. Just enjoying, and really taking in everything I saw. I especially love the giant Stegasaurus that is made out of old car bumpers. It is very very cool looking. Then there is just a bunch of fun things to look at and yeah, I would love to go with my friends sometime.

After that, we went back to the hotel, checked in, got situated then headed over to the Fishermans Grotto to get some food.
I was going to order a crab sandwich when my dad was like, Im going to get the steak and lobster, and I gave him a look like woah, and he asked if that is what I wanted too. Well, I love lobster, and I love steak, you bet your german fatass I am going to get it. So all in all it was around a 200 dollar meal. Oh and the sourdough bread with clam chowder, has to be the most orgasmic combination of all time. It is just way too good, and I wish I had some right fucking now.

So after that, we headed back to the hotel, I went to call Jackie, she didn't answer, and I talked to Yost for like 50 minutes, then heading back inside, took a shower and then passed out for about 12 hours.

Day 2: The Golden Gate Bridge.
-----------------------------
I awoke around 10am, and we all got ready, and decided to go hit up the Exploritorium, which we were going to drive to because it was kind of far away. Since it is extroadinarily hard to navigate through San Francisco with all the signs fucking you up, we ended up circling the fucking building with actually make it there, and we decided the best way to get there was to head down the Golden Gate Bridge, and come back. Since there is no place to make a U-turn ANYWHERE in that stupid city. I mean, it should come as a surprised to me that the city known for it's excess of gays would be backwards :P
So we went across the bridge, parked over there, and took a little stroll about half way across it. It was pretty cool to do that, and we took quite a few pictures there, I shall upload them later. We were really high up there. When you are over the water and you look down, it really doesn't look that far. We toss a penny over the side, and watched it take like 20 seconds to hit the water. After that walking adventure we got back into the car and finally arrived at the Exploritorium.

The Exploritorium.
----------------------
Really interesting place, it had a lot of cool science projects set up. Being able to see yourself in Ultra-violet light, and giant water tornados. Seeing inside a chicken egg where a chicken is growing. You could see it's heart beating and everything. It was insanely cool. I really wish I had a friend there to enjoy the experience with me, because my parents were going ahead not trying everything out, and they went to go eat something at the food area. But I was just walking around by myself looking at everything. If there was someone there to experience it all with me, it would have been great. I really enjoyed the life exhibits, like looking at regular flies with a magnifying lens, then looking at ones like it, but with slight genetic mutations. Well some weren't that slight, some did not have eyes. That was really weird, but quite awesome. Then others had white eyes, some had wings that were curled, and others had wings that were bent to the side. Yeah that place was great. I didn't get to enjoy all the exhibits, but I can say this, the best part about my whole experience there, was the choco taco I got right before we went in. Damn I love thos things.

After that we went to Tower Records, and spent some time there. My parents got some cds, I got a Game Informer, which I really need to renew my subscription for that. Then headed back to the hotel to drop the car off.

The Internation Spy Shop
---------------------------
We were on a desperate search for something to eat. I wanted a crab sandwich and was getting anxious because our last night there was drawing to an end, and I haven't had one yet. But we decided we would get a pizza, and bring it back to the hotel and watch Jurassic Park. There was a pizza place right around the corner, and we were going to get one from there after we walked over to Ghiradelli Square and get some chocolate. I saw this shop, next tot he pizza place, I looked in the glass and saw Replicas of an M16, Ak47 and some other guns. I went in to check it out. Turns out they were airsoft guns, and they were freaking awesome. I want one really badly. But the guy working there gave us a lot of cool information on them, and a bunch of other stuff. He showed us a bunch of cool spygear, and there was fun sunglasses that had mirrors on the side so you could see behind you, and I got a switchblade comb :D. My parents ordered an Ultrasonic emitter, that whenever a dark barks within a certain radius,it sets off this high pitched noise that will make the dog feel like his head is about to explode. So that will shut that stupid fucking yappity dog next door up. And so the war with our neighbor continues. But that is a topic for another post. So my just randomly walking in there turned out to be a rocking idea after all.

So we went to the square, got some chocolate, went back got the pizza, and Enjoyed Jurassic Park and Hellboy, two wonderfully kick ass movies.

Day3: The Aquarium
--------------------
So we got everything ready that morning, and checked out, and headed over to the Aquarium. That place is so damn cool. Again having a friend there would have made it better, but it worked. So many awesome things in there. I'll tell yah, there is nothing more alien then the shit that lives in our oceans. I mean jesus, there is some seriously weird shit in there. I wish I could have enjoyed it more, but there was so many damn little kids in there, screaming at the top of their fucking lungs. OMG LOOK AT THE SHARK, OH A STARFISH. ORLY? No shit we all see it, but do you have to announce it at 10 tones above beyond fucking loud? Don't any of these parents teach their kids to have an inside voice...Fuck, just be quiet all the time, because whenever you open your mouth you are going to spill a constant stream of dumb that is going to bambard my ears and force me to want to take it up a notch, probably to about 4 on the dial, and slap the kid in the face. I know they are underdeveloped and don't know a whole lot, but that is why they are to remain silent, and to take in all they can. Not turn our minds into a desolate wasteland of dead braincells with their perpetual screaming of shit that doesn't make sense. But besides all that it was fun.

So we went for lunch I finally got a crab sandwich, and then we embarked on our long journey back home.

I can say it was a great trip I had a lot of fun. I wish I could go into a little more detail, but my mom caught me awake like 15 minutes ago, and seemed pretty angry. I should have been in bed about 2 hours ago...oh well. I guess I should make my way though...I know this post is beyond epic, but I will probably talk a little more about this later, when I am a riding the stream of consciousness more smoothly, and when I have more time.
Hope you had fun reading this. If you got this far, congradulations, but I don't expect anyone too :P

Good night friends <333
