The Little Twins and an Annika

While on our way out West to Los Angeles and Sunny Southern California, we stopped to visit a few of my relatives.

At my Aunt Monica and Uncle Mark's we spent an overcast (when we arrived) Sunday afternoon at their club's pool. After a while the kids got a little bored in the cold water and to keep the peace and keep them busy, I pulled out my video camera and let them take turns playing the reporter.

Moving In, Out and On



I've moved...it's official. My zip code is now 91505! I live in Burbank, CA!

More exciting news will come tomorrow, I'm in the process of putting all my videos online from the trip Ashley and I took across the country and across a border. There was a 5 or 6 year-old there to wake us up at every stop that included my family. Well, I guess, except for my own house.

It was action packed. But there's lots of video. I'm thinking I might make a mash-up/music video too to the best parts. For now, the goal is to just get the body of it online and up.

You can watch the progress at this link

I'll post the highlights up here though. Go there for the raw footage I guess.

I have some funny stories to tell...here's to-post list:

  • Ms. Kay the Old Time Photographer
  • Karaoke (x2)
  • Annapolis and the Schultz's
  • New Jersey and Judy
  • Alan Jackson
  • Nashville (hotels, karaoke, and bars)
  • Golf/Snow Cones/Clubhouses/Ellie-monsters
  • Midland, Texas and "The Hold-Up"
  • Arizona/New Mexico/El Paso and Riverside-Red-Light
  • Redheads and Idaho
  • Kathy Griffin
  • Carson Daly
  • $1 Comedy Shows
  • The Getty Center
  • $10 Haircuts
  • Moving furniture
  • Temp Agency
  • Reality Show
  • The Apartment
  • The Job Search
I will address all of the above in a later post...or probably in multiple, for now, that's where they are. Some of those I have video/photos of so I'll post that where appropriate. I've just got to get my stuff together and put it all together.

Could take me some time.


Be patient.

What AM I waiting for?





That PostSecret pretty much sums it up here. What AM I waiting for? Why shouldn't I move to the City of Angels and pursue this crazy dream I have of producing TV shows? What's holding me back anymore?

Nothing.

And I'm outta here. I'll be departing on my cross-country adventure on Saturday and I couldn't be more excited (ok...I probably could). It hasn't quite hit me yet. I know it'll be a while before I see my family again (probably like Christmas) but I'm not all teary about it or anything, I mean I have left them before. And I've always come back. They'll be fine. I know it. But I'll pray for them just in case.

Tonight, it's off to Canada to visit my Grandparents and to see some family. After that, we're picking up Ashley at the Train station and leaving. She's not staying out in California (yet), but she'll be traveling with me, which I am VERY excited about.

This is a trip we've been talking about since we were in Middle School, which is pretty ridiculous. I think it is anyways.

Ok...I've probably got to go and pack the car.

I bought a nifty little digital web camcorder, so I'll podcast some stuff here. Be on the look out for links to Videos of my travels. :)

Peace out for now.
