Just a couple of notes from a Dorky trip...
- Pay attention to your mail. You might just end up with some kind of coupon you can use to park FOR FREE at the airport.
- I just love Virgin America airlines. Especially since they offered me an upgrade to first class for $35 on my outbound trip. Just heavenly, especially for those passengers who may have been a little queasy and hungover as they got on the plane. Not that I know anyone like that...
- Then again, it's so very, very hard to fly in coach again after you've been in first class. Sigh...
- I am absolutely terrible at Guitar Hero. I could barely get through the first couple of verses of "Slow Ride," a song I know very well, before the game cut me off.
- Also? Terrible at Wii bowling. And tennis. Jeez...
- Do I get a pass because it was my first time on the Wii?
- There's no point in packing sunscreen if you're not going to use it on the day you spend strolling along San Diego's Embarcadero in the sun.
- There are few things that make you feel older than watching young people you've known all their lives get their high school diplomas. Except maybe sucking at Guitar Hero.
- So happy it was coolish (by SD standards) all weekend. My sweating was minimal.
- However, my sunburn -- which is almost in a perfect square on my chest -- is maximum.
- Also, my nose. Just call me Rudolph.

aw damn you
now the damn song is in my head
rudolph the red nosed reindeer ... reindeer
They should have Rudolph as one of the song selections on GH.
I shred on GH, by the way.
We play on our Wii.
Actually, I don't shred. But I'm okay.
I discovered that I'm actually better at it when I have had two beers.
Three beers and I'm worse.
Strange.
Happy birthday from someone who's one year shy of 50 (or will be on the 25th).
BTW--I've posted again.
yeharr
I was coerced into playing rock band or whatever (I guess that is Guitar Hero+ other instruments?) ... I played the drums, which my friend assured me is the easiest thing. We chose some old Weezer song...hip, hip something. I was terrible. I feel your pain.
Also, I was a little sunburnt last week. I feel your pain doubly.
Ooh, also ... my youngest cousin just graduated high school and my neice is about to have a baby. I feel your pain triply!!
Still, through all this pain I'm feeling pretty all right. Hope all is good with you!
glad you had a good trip
sorry about the guitar hero...
