it's amazing to me that we're already nearing august. didn't we just have a new year or something? what's with this older-i-get-the-faster-time-goes deal? was that in my contract somewhere?

leaving for the high school houseboat trip this saturday. more than excited. a nice deluge away from the 2001 toyota.com refresh project (not that it's maddening or anything) and get into a houseboat for a week. surrounded by 14 other houseboats and 250 highschoolers. yeah, it's sort of a vacation. what's _your_ definition of a vacation, anyway?

attempting to begin planning for my next maui trip. over christmas again. might stay a little longer in oahu. whatever. it's all still so far away a this point. but it's out there somewhere.

that's about it over here. life is grand. over-time pay rules. living by the ocean can't be beat. i'm being taken care of.
