the daily dub

Note to self: when it’s snowing hard, cold as hell, and you’re planning on going snowboarding, wear a face mask.

My face hurts… time for a hot shower.

Hope everyone has a great holiday/solstice. I am having a blast, that’s for sure.

Things on my hit list:

Snowboarding
Hitting the SFCA Bars
Sea of Dreams ’06 New Years Eve Party
Crashing at fark’s place.
Seeing friends from school/work one last time before heading to NZ
Trekking New Zealand
Turning 22 just before February.
Work

Perhaps I am a jetsetter. >:D

Just got in from Truckee, where the weather sucked, skiing was worse (up until the last day), and I got yet another 2 phone numbers. We drove to Kirkwood Wednesday for some riding, got some in before the thunderstorm rolled in and cause them to shutdown the lifts. Who want’s to ride a giant, steel conductor through a lightning storm? Anyone? No? Alright.

Day two: Kirkwood. Rain. Power outage. 2 runs. Refund. 6 hrs drive total. LAME.
Night two: Priya spins records, I record and work digital effects. Live from Truckee. I have CDs if you’re interested. We’re both blasted drunk. Great time!

Day Three: Wake up at 7am. Think about hitting Kirkwood. Go back to sleep til 9am. Pack up, drive to Truckee. Eat “Huevos Mountana” at Squeeze In, another culinary orgasm, and the best breakfast I’ve ever had. 6 cups of coffee later, we take a lap through old town, and drive to Sugarbowl. Phone call to Erin, snow’s decent, strip down in the parking lot, throw on spring skiing clothes (full zip goretex pants and a T shirt), buy half-day ticket. Best boarding so far — on wet snow, no less. We even found some pseudo-powder.

After that, we hit the bar, ate a kick ass dinner, and drove to Sacto. Priya’s dad says “no music at my house.” We drive to 42nd street, kick it a bit, and crash.

Next morning, we wake up late, shower for about an hour (damn, hot water feels great), drive to “Fox and Goose,” have a kick ass English (as in British) breakfast, drive home, kick it a bit more, and bust out the turn tables. We record Live from 42nd Street, another 72 minute set with Priya spinning and Me recording and working the digital effects.

Overall, it’s been a great week, I’ve had lots of fun, Erin was a blast (though her roommates suck), got 2 phone numbers (though no one ever calls back).

The count:
Number of (damn fine) cute counselors from Walton’s ran into: 1
Number of phone numbers acquired: 2
Number of days boarding: 3
Number of equivalent days worth of actual boarding: 1.5
Number of CDs recorded with Priya: 2
Number of people accusing me of jetsetting: 1

Cheers, y’all

I have a few readers in Maryland, Alaska, Iceland, the UK, and, get this, Qatar (next to Saudi Arabia). Wow. Crazy.

Hello faithful readers, random people, and members of my family. I’ve had no internet at my (kick ass) place in Sunnyvale yet, so I’m blogging from the parking lot behind Apple.

I got all moved in! Sweet couch and rug donated from one of my mom’s friends, a queen size bed (well, matress and box spring, as my parents forgot the bed itself), a Sound Closet (for recording/DJing), a bookshelf (damn, I have a lot of books), and two large closets: sick diggs.

I’ve posted some photos for you curious types. Also, if anyone wants to come hang out or check the place out, feel free to drop me a line, and bring a bathing suit if you’re interested in hitting the Spa/Sauna.
