Friday night i went out to Venice to see Wendy's opening. We hung out there for awhile and then headed to the obligatory Finn drinking festivities. It was great to see everybody. What shocked me the most was seeing Koga.

Saturday was work work work. I had a little project i needed to get done, so i worked my ass off all day long. Then that night as i was walking out to grab something to eat I got a call. It seems that there was a new set of artwork that needed to be dropped in. Well, i had been working all day integrating the artwork i had been given. Well, it looks like i gotta do it all again. Eat, then dig into the new artwork.

Sunday i hit the road and headed down to San Clemente. Jen was already there and had been since Saturday. She went down for Kim's baby shower, and then spent the night at Annie's house. I didn't hit ANY traffic and made it down to Dana Point in just about an hour. Jen and I decided to meet in the harbor, which ended up being a bad idea. There was an art festival going on, and the parking lot was jammed. I called here and told her I'd meet her at the Strand about a mile away. Ok, that was just as bad of an idea. It was depressing. The strand is now a HOLE in the ground. They've graded the land down to beach level, and they've pushed the property line out as far to the high water mark as they legally can. What used to be a wide beach has now been reduced to a tiny little strip. We walked on the beach with our mouths open wide. It was sick.

We headed to Ruby's for food, and then back down to San Clemente to hang out at the beach house. At this point i had the Pulp Fiction moment. I'm on PCH, and people start walking across the road in a crosswalk. I come to a quick stop to let them go, and i can hear one of them say "fine hit me, i'll get more money". At that moment i think, "hold on, wtf?" and Jen says "isn't that Justin?" Sure enough its her cousin walking across the street with his girlfriend and another one of their friends. I yell out the window, "Justin, get out of the fuckin street!" and he turns around ,"Hey, pointing and laughing" (we laughed about it today)

We got down to the beach house and went to the market to pick up a few things. Bob, Valerie and David showed up and we relaxed before heading out to dinner.

Monday was spent on the beach most of the day. We eventually headed out to Cannons for drinks and then Ti Amo for dinner. After a few bottles of wine, Jen had to drive everybody home. We had a great time.

Tuesday we went to the "beach house" in laguna for breakfast and then i hit the road to head home. I worked my ass of the rest of the day and then crashed hard.
