Alyia,Diana,Josiah and i got together for a reunion hike which we had been talking about since our hike(s) we did together in hawaii [1] [2]. We hiked granite mountain which is apart of the alpine lakes wilderness area and is a REALLY tough hike. It was 8 miles round trip and the 4 up was a total mental battle telling my friends as well as myself that i had to summit as i had failed the last 2 times i tried when i was with my family.

Eventually after a lot of work we lost the trail once we could see the peak which has a fire lookout with a ranger in it with binoculars a radio and enough water and propane to cook for himself and his friend and his son. Anyways since we had lost the trail we had to do some boulder hopping to get to the top which while a lot of fun was also pretty never racking as one slip and we’d be bashing something against the rocks that would most likely hurt for days. After going to the ranger station and saying hi to the ranger we headed back down the mountain which like most hikes since were not panting and concentrating on just getting to the top we played hiking games like smoosh, telling stories, making jokes, whining about how much we hurt, etc.

Josiah probably came out the worst with his whole lower body in pain with alyia in second with her legs in pain and diana in third with her twisting her ankle 2 times. Personally i just got sick after the hike as i got home at 12:30 fell asleep at 1:00 am and got up at 4:30 to goto work the next day . Missing that much sleep is not good for ones immune system and by sick i mean miserable not necessairly sick although it’s probably a good idea to cancel my blood appointment.

we went to the rock which was good because josiah had been craving pizza for 2 days
then bought drinks at top foods including mead which was delicious
then we watched batman begins which josiah had never seen and had a toast/roast int he middle with the mead

I think i already told just about everybody already in RL but anyways we met at jonathan’s because it’s a good neutral place that everyone know how to get there but one person and waited for josiah since his father mad him an hour late because they were working 2 hours away and didn’t leave on time. Once josiah was close we went to the rock wood fired pizza which was apparently a good idea considering josiah had been craving pizza for 2 days.

After the rock we picked up refreshments at the grocery store went to jonathans and stole his tv and dvd player so we could watch movies at josiah’s girlfriends appartment. I brought 4 movies and out of all 4 “man movies” he picked batman begins which he had never seen before. Halfway through the movie at a good stopping point we had a toast/roast of Mead for josiah. The mead was delicious and after reading the previous article i guess it isn’t honey wine but something completely different. After that we finished the movie and everyone headed home. Overall a low key low cost moral bachelor party.

And suffered for it the next day

We all met at the mills house for food, games, and doing some voiceover work for an animated short sharon and tyler were doing. Dinner was good as there were burgers and cookies and carrots and all kinds of other normal BBQ stuff. I had a burger lots of carrots and too many cookies but were celebrating our independance so why not splurge a little right? Anyways after dinner all of us 20 somethings went downstairs and recorded a few phrases for some friends that are doing a contest for yohoho! Puzzle Pirates. After that we all played cranium and while we lost we putup a good fight and had lots of laughs when we had to act out tina turner (me) or hum completely obvious stuff and watch people not get it.

After handing out everyone piled into 2 cars and headed to the ampitheater to watch some funny drama skits dance to the music watch 3 sky divers fly into the ampitheater stage and watch a good 30 minute long fireworks show. All in all it was a good time.

“I just the other day got, an internet was sent by my staff at 10 o’clock in the morning on Friday and I just got it yesterday. Why? Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the internet commercially. […]

“They want to deliver vast amounts of information over the internet. And again, the internet is not something you just dump something on. It’s not a truck. It’s a series of tubes.”

could someone send me one of those internets please? Also watch the series of tubes joke on ytmnd yes that’s right an 85 year old senator who doesn’t understand how the internet works is in charge of the senate commerce committee which can block certain bills from being heard for example a bill on internet neutrality.

I sure hope that we can save the internet from the old teleco’s.

Well after putting it off i had the mop on the top of my head shaved down to a much better looking easier managed style

I’ll be able to tell if it was or not in the morning when i have a chance to do a cold start without having to try the work around i was using before.

This guy claims to figure out stuf that no one else has about lost, except they way he does it is hilarous.

I got a 300GB sata 16mb of cache hard drive for my dead computer this will hopefully fix it. And i also got the dvd versions of glaidator and braveheart both great man movies.

Anybody that isn’t a pc gamer/nerd will totally not get this/think it’s retarted but personally i think pure pwnage is hilarious. Some great quotes were:

“there isn’t enough room in that bed for 2 kyle weed all be sleeping on each other and touching and stuff”
“i’ve lost a lot of good men to world of warcraft… i call it the plauge and the ones that do come back all spray and pray”
