Chatting Up The Video With Da Tapias

Video eclair-chatting with Sylvia and Rodrigo.

Video Chat With The Tapias’ Kids

Had my first “live” interaction with the two children Sylvia and Rodrigo are adopting. (Names and faces are protected until the final papers are signed…IN SIX MONTHS!)

After-Party Visit With The Tapias

Had a laugh-filled post-party visit at the Tapias’ house.

Adoption Shower For The Tapias

Had both an adoption and surprise birthdays party for Sylvia and Rodrigo at Fuddrucker’s in Chula Vista. And there was much cheering.

Happened Across Some Animals At The Zoo Today

Spent a nice, sunny day at the Zoo with Mary and her daughter Diana. Ran into Rick, the Zoo Ambassador, who told me about another tweet-up they’re having tomorrow morning. It will be avian-focused.

First Ever Facetime Chat

Had a Facetime chat with Mary on her iPhone from my computer. Surprisingly good video quality. Probably because of the high quality of the iPhone camera.

Julie’s Cookies And Valerie’s Contact

Opened the box of home-made cookies I received yesterday from Julie, my friend from high school. A pile of chocolaty chip goodness. And I made a new friend on Flickr. Also a pile of goodness.

Visiting Sylvia’s Grandma

After playing at Disneyland, we drove over to Sylvia’s grandmother’s house for a surprise visit with her and Sylvia’s aunts.

Disneyland Or Bust!

Spent the day at the “Happiest Place on Earth” with Sylvia, Rodrigo and even Randy and Bella for a while, after dropping Lilo and Stitch off at a vet kennel.

Meeting At Multi Image

Met with Terry at Multi Image to go over some work I will be starting on Monday for PortVision.

Half-Day At The Tapias

Took some chicken soup down to Sylvia and Rodrigo because they were both sick with colds. Stayed to help move some furniture, watched the sunset, picked the dogs up from the groomers and had some really good Mexican food. Oh, and they officially said yes today to adopting a young Hispanic brother and sister.

Halloween Chat With Brenda

Brenda called me with Google video chat while wearing her Big Bird costume. My mom, her mom, her brother Mike and Musashi also joined in the chat.

Checking On The Dogs And Cats

Checked in on the neighbors’ dogs and cats while they were at the Chargers game against the Tennessee Titans. Chargers went on to win 33-25 after trailing for most of the game.

Randy’s Gourds And Decor

Randy’s Halloween decorations and crop of pumpkins he grew for Halloween carving and pie.

Fatefully Synchronistic Randomness

I wanted to pick a completely random photo from my external drive (with even my eyes closed and just typing a character) and amazingly landed on this one I made of Randy for his birthday from 5 years ago. Amazing for two reasons: first, Randy’s birthday is this Sunday and second, tomorrow he and I …
