Off To Disneyland...
2 Days off in a row. First so far...


Beams of light as we wait for the Winnie and the Pooh ride.

We have fambly down. Like we're not going to turn them on to the Wonderful World of Disney. I know, I know... to you West Coasterners, it's like... Astroworld to Houstonians (us). But we're going to live it up in style, like it's our first and last (we all know it won't be... we're sorta fanatics). It was cool of Richard to be cool with everyone taking off the 2 days. They're on the downside of this mountain of recording... in fact, I'd say, they're sliding down the slippery slope toward completion. I'm pretty sure, in 2 weeks, we'll be back home in good ole East Texas. Meanwhile, I made the decision to take my camera today. Maybe I'll have a few pics to toss up on this post.













































---------------------------------------------------

I took over 565 photos!
It's going to take some doing just to trash the blurry and crappy ones. I'll do my best to get something up tonight... cuz, tomorrow, I have to get back to work. We've been having one non-stop party since Kim arrived.

What a day. We stayed until it closed... saw the parade, the whole thing... walked out shoulder to shoulder with thousands to that long car thing that picks you up... it took half an hr just to get on that. But it was a blast. Pics asap. Thanks. boyd

-----------------------------

Been workin' on those since my last post. It's 1:11am. The Santa Anna winds are howling low again... Chauntelle and I just heard a loud hoot owl. There's tons of wildlife here... Racoons the size of bears, gopher looking things, bunny rabbits everywhere... other stuff. I'm falling over. The sun baked me... dried my eyes out. More tomorrow if possible... boyd

I Added a Few This Morning
But forgot to hit "submit". I'm at a Sherman Williams store in Semi Valley with the girls - sans Stacy, who is a keyboard slave to this record. Cheers ya'll! bd

Apple Store - Semi Valley Mall
Girls are shopping feinds. (fiends? sp?) Even if they don't have money, they still shop. They just "look"... but it's just like shopping. That's why married guys (and boyfriends) don't really have to shop... the women are going to buy it for you anyway... with your money. What's the point? But where would we be without them? We might be like... cavemen or something. Ogilvy (the late, great ad man) said something like, "your wife isn't stupid... She's the consumer". In other words, they make most of the purchases... smart marketers appeal to them. Girls are the best thing ever. And I mean that. Without girls, we wouldn't have malls, or shopping centers or movie cinema's... I think we would have Apple Stores, but they'd be in office complex's. Thanks to women, I can get out of the cave, go to a luxurious outdoor shopping center, get coffee, read a book... and get on line at an Apple store. Yea, girls.

I'm reading a book on designing DVD menu's. It's a beautiful day. California sure has the edge on us - weather-wise. Back to my book.

Never went to Disneyland, but Disneyworld was fantastic when I was a kid. And my parents dragged 2 year old me there the year it opened. So of course I need to get my kids out there soon! Very Happy

I LOVE Disneyland...and living here in LA and having an annual pass makes it VERY hard to not skip out on classes and go for the day, like today!

Have fun! I go just to take pictures sometimes, I hope you get some good ones!

I'm sure Weston is pretty frustrated at the height requirements for certain rides, seeing as how he's only 3 feet tall now...

Astroworld looks like an ex-battlefield now. Indeed, it was a battlefield. The hearts of Houston and the coldness of the corporate fought the utmost of battles on that sacred ground. Alas, our heart could not overthrow the evil of money. Now we can overlook condos, rather than the Serial Thriller.

yeah good ol' astroworld. wish they would have taken away waterworld or whatever the crap you call that place. all i know is that the lazy river is akin to the ganges except not holy in any form or fashion.
