Framed (har har)!
onigaminanashi's family threw a big neighborhood party for her grandma's 70th birthday this past weekend in Fresno and I got roped into taking pictures. Kailey thought a photo booth thing would be fun for the guests, so I had to dust off all my photography equipment that's been sitting in storage over the summer. This was the first chance I really got to use ( Read more... ) -
Snow rabbits
More reminiscing! Once when my family was driving through Lake Tahoe for a winter vacation (around 1996?), my dad excitedly pointed out the window and said, "Look, kids! There's a snow rabbit out there!" My sister and I pressed our little faces to the window trying to spot the snow rabbit, but all we saw were snow-covered pine trees and not much ( Read more... ) -
Chocolaaate
When I was about 4 or 5 years old I went to the doctor for skin problems, which turned out to be eczema. My doctor went over a couple of things I should do to help ease the itching.

I may, or may not, have an obsession with cats...
I woke up this morning at the ungodly hour of 7 AM and looked out the window to see the stray cat I have affectionately (and unimaginatively) named Backyard Kitteh. Most times the cat just sleeps in the backyard by my bedroom window, but this time it was just roaming around and eventually made its way over to the patio. Of course I had to rush to ( Read more... ) -
Rawr dinosaurs!
Yesterday I went to the Natural History Museum of LA County with Chris andpyrotic to check out their new dinosaur exhibit. It's really quite incredible seeing these full-scale fossils and replicas throughout the exhibit. I can't ever imagine having one of these walking around today. I'd probably get squished by accident. Or eaten. Rawr!
There were ( Read more... ) -

Billy Crystal showed up at Saturday night's to throw the first pitch of the game and to also film for his role as Artie Decker, radio voice of the Fresno Grizzlies. He will star in the film "Us & Them" alongside Bette Midler, although ( Read more... ) -
Mid-summer hiatus
It's been a busy past few weeks. Summer is slowly coming to an end and it just feels like my parents are trying to cramin as many weekend trips to San Francisco as possible before I head back to Riverside and my mom starts work again. I've stayed on the boat (docked at Pier 39) more times this summer than I have in the last few years. I forgot ( Read more... )
