FRIDAY!!

Happy Friday!
Today has been great so far. I came to work at 6:00 and went for a nice long run on the beach with iPod pumping sweet meldoy 'twixt me ears. Awesome. Also, the Public Affairs Chief came back from Mexico this morning and we had a nice homecoming celebration in true Norman Rockwell manner. The boss brought her dog, Lucius, in today. He is a Stafordshire Terrier (pit variety). I create comic strips sometimes based on imaginary adventures of him. They are called "Lucius Toons" and they hang in our office.
Yesterday afternoon I was bored and drew a poster for my favorite band, Wolfmother. I made two copies and mailed on to Ari and one to his neighbors. They will have no idea who mailed them this sweet print, but they will appreciate it.
I learned a few songs on guitar last night. here they are:
"Levels" by the Raconteurs
"Steady as she Goes" The Raconteurs
"White Unicorn" Wolfmother
"Colossal" Wofmother
Lately too, I've learned a few of Mason Jennings' newer songs. His latest album "Boneclouds" is one of the finest pieces of work to come out post 1995.
Tonight I'm going to the YMCA skatepark in Encintas for the third time. It's a good scene there, and there's lots of dudes around on similar experience levels to myself, i.e. getting back into the sport/looking for an alternate form of exercise. Tonight I hope to learn something new. I've found it's easier to push my limits at the skatepark as opposed to surfing. See, when I'm skating, I'm already standing up and there is no swimming involved. Also, after dropping in a few 6-7 foot ramps, 2-4 foot waves don't seem so big, so surfing is improving as well. I'm super psyched to be skating more, but I wish I could find some dudes around the unit that want to go as well. Getting guys to come surfing was a little easier because I have the extra boards. Hey, come skate with me. Have a cool weekend.
