Nerdfest Week.

This week is San Diego Comic Con. It will be the first time I'm going for all 4 days.  Last year I only went for an afternoon... and that afternoon was one jam packed with nerdiness.  I can't imagine what kind of trouble a whole 4 days will get me into.
I think what I am most looking forward to is seeing Joshua Jackson in person. I doubt I will have the mental capacity to speak to him, but who knows friends... Who knows.

And of course, the Doctor Who panel.  That will be incredible as well.  SO excited.

Phase 10 - Adventure Style


Every day needs a little adventure... Some days need big adventure.

Today was a day of big adventure.  Just a jam packed day of events.
Adventure happened in phases.

Phase 1: Bring the Car in for some major service and some safety recalls. 

Phase 2: Breakfast at Harbor House Cafe

Phase 3: Kayaking in Huntington Harbor

Phase 4: Was going to see Pirates: Band of Misfits (Mostly because it's in the cheap theater, and David Tennant is in it)  ... however... Phase 4 was cancelled... so... went to pick up the car ... That was fun.

Phase 5: Bonfire. We packed up the truck and headed to the beach.  It was still really early ... but the beach was SOOOO crowded.  No fire pits to be seen.  Seems everyone was looking while driving... right behind us there was a crazy 3 car pile up.  There is no way to explain that horrific sound of the crunching of metal.  The thud. Luckily no one hit us.... so we kept moving.  I jumped out of the truck, on PCH, ran up the sand bank... and started power walking the bike path looking for a pit (in flips... have a little blister on the bottom of my foot now... no biggie).  None. So... bonfire cancelled.  Instead... Starbucks Iced Venti Skinny Vanilla Latte. SOOOOOOO necessary.

Phase 6: I took the 2nd of 3 showers that day... Had to wash my hair with Suave 2 in 1 for Men... because that's all there was.  That was an adventure. My hair wasn't pleased. 

Phase 7: First ever Bacon wrapped hot dog. They say it's the Los Angeles Dog.  I guess. It was all kinds of unhealthy tastiness. 

Phase 8: Dad taking tequila shots... and then making me drink one.  My family is the weirdest and most awesome. 

Phase 9: Using the firepit in the backyard... it was time for S'mores made with Mr. Goodbars.  If you have not tried this... you should.

Phase 10: Went to the theater to see Spiderman again... but it was sold out. SOOOO many people out and about today.   The day was so beautiful... I guess I can understand it.  Instead of the movie... got to visit with my best friend instead.  Besties & Kitties are a good way to end the day of adventure.
