You know what football team I hate? The NINERS! Ok...yes, let me clarify...they're my FAVORITE team...but they frustrate me ohhh soo much. They kicked ass against the Cardinals on Monday night...BUT they got their asses kicked last Sunday to the Seahawks! WTF! If they would've beat the Seahawks, they would be in first at the NFC West!!! They're just so inconsistent. But it looks like they're slowly building up their team. They have a decent defense (Patrick Willis is AWESOME), a good running game...and now a good passing game (Vernon Davis, Michael Crabtree). Come on Niners!!!

Kogi truck was in Irvine last night and Cat and I made our way to try it for the first time. The line wasn't bad at all...it was maybe 20 minutes and we got some of their short rib tacos and a black jack quesadilla. I was scared that the hype of the truck would overwhelm how they really tasted. But but they were sooooooooooo good!!! Mmmmmm!!!! My mouth is watering right now thinking of it. I actually think that the black jack quesadilla would be my favorite, but everything we had was DELICIOUS! So thumbs up to Kogi! It's gonna be in Irvine again tonight!!!!

So I just got a HP Mediashare ex490 home server and I've been playing it for a week basically backing up my data to it..and I LOVE IT! I can't wait to get a couple more hard drives to back up my back ups and store even more data in it.

Dont' you love it when you get unexpected surprises. Yesterday morning, Cat and I went out the front door just to check on something in the front of the house. As we opened the door we saw a package from our wedding photographer. We looked at the package and then look at each other and just started jumping for joy and laughing. HA HA HA! That package was sitting out in front of our house all night! YAY! We got our wedding proofs!!! I LOVE IT!!! So we spent a little time looking over them (which made me late for work, but I didn't care). Soooo awesome. Later that night we just took a look at the pictures and it just brought back memories. Ahhhhh...we love it.

Ok...that's it for now. Such is the life of Joe...

I know this is late too, but Thanks to everyone who texted/called/wished me a happy birthday last week. Man! Finally I'm 21!!! YAHOO???? HA!

So Cat got me a new iPhone 3GS!!! YAHOO!!! It was soooo funny because at work I was getting all these texts and stuff saying "Happy Birthday" and when I went to check my phone one time, I accidentally dropped it on the floor. OOPS! It was still working fine no problems...until like a couple hours later when I had "no service". I wanted to call/text Cat that our photographer put up some "teaser" wedding pictures on his blog (what an awesome birthday surprise!), but I couldn't because I had "no service". I thought that I had broke my iPhone!!! AHHHHH!!! So I get home hoping that it was just at work that I had "no service" but nope...I didn't get any service from work to home and I thought there was something wrong with my phone. So I get home and I'm telling Cat that my phone is broken and I turn around and there she is just smiling her big smile holding a new iPhone 3GS box with a big red bow on it...then I instantly knew what had happened. She had switched service from my old iPhone to my new iPhone!!! HA HA HA! She's sooooo sneaky! I love it!

So yeah...I LOVE my new iPhone...it's SOOOOOOO much faster than my old one. And with my new iPhone I'm trying to arrange all my stuff better. I've synced my iPhone contacts with my google contacts and synced my iPhone calendar with my google calendar. So what's cool is that if I update my contacts on my phone it automatically updates my contacts on google and vice versa....and it does the same thing with my calendar! Sooooo much easier and nicer than before. Before, when one of my friends updated their phone number or address, I'd update their info on my gmail, but would forget to update it on my phone...and so my phone would have the old info and I would text their old number. Now it's just automatic! I love it! I love to be in sync!!! Bye Bye Bye! (get it? in sync....'N Sync)....BLAH!

Oh yeah...and I can't wait until Saturday when my new HP Mediasmart ex490 gets here! It's going to be our home server and NAS and backup device! YAHOO!!! I love tech stuff!!! Such is the life of Joe...

Lagging
I know this is a week or two late but this will be my Thanksgiving update!

So this Thanksgiving we decided to spend it up North with Cat's familia. We flew out on Tuesday night after work and when we got to SFO it was dead...there were no cars there at all...it was perfect. I'm sure if we would've flown in on Wednesday night it would've been a MADHOUSE!

Thanksgiving was fun...we did so much driving (well, traveling...since we really didn't do the driving in most cases). Tuesday night was spent in Union City, Wendesday we drove to Tracy where we were having THanksgiving (we just wanted to beat the traffic). Thanksgiving was good...lots of eating, watching crappy football games, and just hanging out with the familia. Thursday night we drove to Livermore to celebrate Thanksgiving part two with some of Cat's cousins. Then James and Ana picked us up and we spent the night at their place in Dublin. So in 3 days we went to 4 different cities. CRAZY!

We got back to Orange County on Saturday and got to watch "Spring Awakening" at OCPAC (THANKS JOES AND KAREN!!!) with Boj and Sol. Sooooo good. I remember watching the Tony's on TV back in 2007 (I don't know why I was watching the TOny's...I just was) and saw performances of "Spring Awakening" and immediately wanted to watch it because the music wasn't traditional "musical music" it had a rock tinge to it. Sooooo good. I got to see boobies too! YES!

On Monday I took a half day and Cat and I headed up to Universal because we got tickets to watch "The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien"!!! His guest were William Shatner, a girl from 90210, and the cast of Mary Poppins. William Shatner was crazy and we thought he was drunk. Annalyn McCord was just ditsy and the Cast of Mary Poppins was pretty entertaining. Good times!!!

Yup, that's my THanksgiving wrap up a couple weeks late. Sorry...I'll try to catch you guys up on more recent events soon enough. Such is the life of Joe...
