Hello Tiffy!

I am moving to Austin, Texas!! We are leaving on Thursday! J is being relocated and trust me we thought this through and we are gonna be ok! We signed a 13 month lease so if we hate it there we will be turning around in 13 months and coming right back! If we love it, we will stay there obviously, but be happy for me, it is gonna be an adventure! Especially driving there because you know how I love driving for a long time! *notice the sarcasm there*

We have most of the apartment now packed and stuff. It has been a long week. Oh and my last day at the office was Friday, but they are having me work remotely which is great for me as I will still need an income in Austin. Well I will be twittering from now on so watch for the twitter and I will be blogging (unless I am too exhausted) every night from the motels. I can’t wait to take pictures! It will be my first time in another state except Nevada in like, my life!

Today I grabbed a cold bottle of Dasani Plus “Vitamin Enhanced Water Beverage” in Pomegranate Blackberry flavor. It is actually, amazingly good. The beverages are very transparent with just a hint of color. The flavor was bolder than I expected for a flavored water, and I expected a very obvious artificial sweetener flavor. I was pleasantly surprised that I was wrong. I did not really notice the artificial sweetener flavor. I am not certain which kind of artificial sweetener is being used as they are being coy about it, at least on the bottle.

I recommend giving this water a try but not when you really want water. I would recommend it instead of Smart Water or SnappleWater as this beverage contains zero calories and tastes every bit as good in my opinion.

This week has been really busy. I am especially tired today because last night I went out to a bar/club until 1:30 in the morning. I didn’t get drunk, thanks to being broke! I still had a good time and met some new people. However I am so tired today. My office moved from one building to one the next exit away. So we moved EVERYTHING over and unpacked everything… Well actually I didn’t pack or unpack, I was told to stock the fridge for the BBQ. After that, I went with the VP to Costco to get more supplies. Then I was instructed to go get ice. That is where the fun begins! As you may know, I am what my friends call “navigationally challenged”. I don’t know right from left. I am not usually a terrible driver (though after you finish reading I doubt that you will believe me), when my GPS was working I had a ball going all kinds of places I would never dare venture without one. I end up in ghettos and scary strange places when I go off on my own.

Anyway, so I know there is a Safeway not that far form where the new office is. Unfortunately, though, taking a left out of the office is a 4-8 minute wait so I took a right so I could make a U-Turn to get in the right direction. There were no U Turns for a long long time so I get lost. Then I plug in my GPS but the thing is always falling off when I hit a bump (I need a new GPS!). So I got it going, started in the right direction, hit a bump and the thing fell off. Bloody hell. This kept happening and finally I find a Safeway oh, 2 cities away. Fine. No Worries. I set up the GPS and start to make the way home. Then the GPS craps out again. I assume I know where I am going. I was going the wrong direction and ended up at Stanford Shopping Center. This is the fancy shopping center in which I never get off my ass and drive myself cause its “too far” Hell that place is not far at all! I am so retarded! Either that or I really got off course! I maneuver my way out of the parking lot, get back on the street and am so frazzled I fly through a Stop sign and almost got hit by a classic car. I literally saw the car coming at my passenger side at like 20 miles an hour and it wasn’t gonna stop. It was so strange. You have heard of the description of traumatic events that time seems to slow down? It was totally true. I saw the car coming at me, my first reaction was to stop, then something made me floor the car to get out of the way, it felt like a long time but it was only a second or 2. The weird part was how I didn’t even feel fear when I saw the car coming at me. I literally just did what needed to be done and I didn’t even think about it! Weird! I am telling you its kind of freaky to see a car coming dead straight at you.

Anyway, I lived and there was no contact with any cars. And no one had any cold drinks because it took me an hour and a half to get ice from a store 5 minutes away. That’s what they get for sending me!

In case you were born under a rock recently, this was Girls Weekend all the way! It started with Friday, May 30th, which happens to be my girlfriend’s birthday.  Jen and Ang and I all went to the Giants vs Padres on Friday. IT was a lot of fun. We all went off our diets and went ape shit. It was great , of course!

Jen got nachos, Ang got a Hot Dog and I got a personal pizza! I already knew that I was going to have pizza so I planned for it the best I could. Here is our photo reel from Friday.

On Saturday afternoon, we all went to Foster City Arts & Wine festival. We drank wine and beer got drooled over fake purses.

We also got our pic taken with a carney.

After that we went to see Sex & The City movie and let me just tell you………….. it was the best movie ever!!!!!!!!!!!
