Went to visit the Tapias today for Sylvia’s Xty Xth birthday. She was busy creating a couple of amazing wreaths made out of dyed corn husks while we watched her favorite Christmas movie, “Elf.” I watched the movie while petting both Lilo and Stitch’s tummies. Never was reciprocated. After a delicious home-made meal and the …

Took my mom for an abdominal CAT scan today. Her having to drink the large bottle of barium sulfate and then waiting an hour took longer than the actual ten minute procedure. Glad I took my copy, my signed copy, of “Wyatt Earp In San Diego: Life After Tombstone” to read. Everyone at the hospital …

Amazingly cool time-lapse video compilation of Earth taken from the International Space Station. But I would recommend watching it with the sound turned way down or even off. The accompanying soundtrack is extremely annoying. Earth | Time Lapse View from Space, Fly Over | NASA, ISS from Michael König on Vimeo.

Not sure why, but I had a sudden, one-day minor surge in viewership today. The 130 views, doubling my last highest viewing day, was spread out through several pages, not because of any single post. I’m amused that people found my postings to be have-a-look-worthy, even if just for one day, and am especially grateful …

The Internet was burning from rage today with American Censorship Day in reference to the U.S. Congress’ meeting on SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act) and the Protect IP Act. Amazing how the movie and recording industries don’t seem to learn from their ongoing mistakes and antiquated ways of thinking. They just don’t understand how OUR …

Had lunch with the Tapias at Pei Wei Asian Diner in Mission Valley today to celebrate Rodrigo’s birthday. Like my previous visit I had the Caramel Chicken which was a bit spicier than last time, but so delicious nonetheless. After lunch we walked two eateries down to the Corner Bakery Café to pick up some …

Picked up some great Mexican food from Colimas in Chula Vista and then watched Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part Two at the Tapias’ house to finish off the wizarding series. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Thought they did a fantastic job and I’m very sorry there will be no more installments.

Traveled up to Dana Point with the Tapias to get some burgers and amazingly tasty fried zucchini from A’s Burgers. After lunch we walked along the beach watching surfers handle massive two-foot breakers. Drove back on the 101 so we could enjoy the small towns lining the coast. ( a d v e n t …
