Pumpkin Patch and the Pumpkin King

So this past saturday was the pumpkin day. It started out with final fittings for Megs wedding dress, followed by TWO hours in Costco, on a saturday. Which ended up being amusing since I did some improv, photography (by camera phone unfortunately) on the floor of Costco, which had a man thinking I was having a sessile! Awesome! I love it when people are confused. Then we raided a pumpkin patch in stripie stockings with masks in the dead of night in order to procure our pumpkins for a night of stabbing. We had a get away car and sleep gass......ok we didn't but that is what I wanted to do......instead we just paid too much money for some farm raised big orange squash that we didn't even eat! (we DID roast the seeds thought.)






After dragging the captives home we put some protective papers on the floor and proceeded to stab the holy-hell out of them, rip out their guts, and give them faces and shapes.....and all to the back ground noise of Aqua Teen Hunger Force. It was a good night. Played some more Wii and went on a couple "moon missions" (Sorry, I cant tell you what that is....)



Sunday I got kidnapped to San Jose and went climbing at Castle Rock, my 3rd time out of doors bouldering. It was, as expected, a ton of fun. And I also got to see some damn good sunset. I thought I would be home by monday evening. But I didn't, I got home today, Wed. Lucky for me I brought my laptop and stuff so I got some good work done. I went to work with my friend, it was funny, like "bring you friend to work day." ha ha. awesome. Especially since it is all swanky Silicon Valley corporate computer land.
(Below; Computer land cubical.....and the missplaced truck amidst a sea of swanky hybrid prias'. It looked really funny parked in the parking lot towering over the little cars...."why are you so little?" My coffee cup on the wheel looks little too.)



I have been so busy this week being kidnapped, that I didn't even KNOW that today was Halloween until yesterday during dinner. We went out to dinner last night and just after we ordered there was a mini earthquake. 5.6. It was funny since I'd not been in one for some time, having been on the east coast for some time now. I laughed.....and thought.....ummmmm should I get under the table or something? We decided not to. There was another one today....3.something. No much. Kinda funny. I was on my bike, so I didn't notice.

I have been doing quite a bit of climbing, eight out of ten days. and I love it. Learning to climb cracks was the crowning joy of my weekend. It's hard but super fun. But I need a small break. body is tired. Next week...... trampoline room.... heck yeah.
