my 30th birthday

i had a great birthday yesterday. thanks to all of you who called (or blogged - or mySpaced) to wish me a happy birthday.

9:00am - bob licked my eyelid and woke me up. i guess it was about that time anyways.
9:15am - finished watching the david blaine special. that dude is nuts man. i heard this morning on the radio that he has some liver damage, loss of sensation, and rashes all over his body from that stunt.
9:45am - re-read Quoheleth's response on the gathering's blog. who is this dude (or girl)?
10:00am - rode my bike up to my house to see what was up with the construction. they are working on the framing of the second story. the stairs are done and my bedroom and bathroom are framed. i finally get a sense for how big this thing really is gonna be.
11:00am - hit 7-11 to get some drinks for enrique and the other workers at the pad. checked out the new rolling stone since mine stopped coming for some reason.
11:45am - stopped by steve's house and chilled with him and tim and ben. talked about how ben has a future in private sector law enforcement (i.e. the rent a cop at the In-And-Out) and how the city where Tim is getting married is not much different from Lompoc.
12:30pm - went by my mom's house to see what's up and to tell her that i have a motorcycle.
12:45pm - ate a $1 beans/rice/cheese from the Loco Menu at Pollo Loco (no, not Pollo Roco) because my mom was not home.
1:30pm - back to my mom's house because she came home after all.
1:35pm - uncomfortable silence due to above mentioned revelation about motorcycle
1:40pm - changed the subject to my house construction to get that look off of her face
3:00pm - sonia met us at the house. we chilled some more and talked about immigration. turns out that my mom and dad did have legal residency before applying for citizenship. but they were illegal for a little while.
4:00pm - went back to the house to show my mom. got more of a sense of the size of my new pad (read: my mom is really short)
5:00pm - back to my moms house to listen to salsa and andrea bocelli. that dude has a latin album that is actually pretty good.
6:15pm - time for dinner with my folks and the in-laws. the choice for location was mine, so of course i picked....ANI'S CHICKEN
8:00pm - got back on my motorcycle and drove home after watching my parents wince as i got on
9:00pm - finished the new baby tovar blog with sonia
9:30pm - watched katharine mcPhee SUCK on american idol and my boy elliot yamin rock the house. what last night was all about was proving, without a doubt, that chris and elliot and taylor are in a whole other league from katharine. go home girl and stick to modeling.
10:00pm - red hot chili peppers on SNL. what's up with EQ? where's the BASSSSSSSSSSSSSS?????????
11:00pm - time for bed. it's already past my bedtime you know, i'm 30!!!!
