My sister, Brenna, had her 25th birthday yesterday. I got her a new Apple iPod Nano:

(note that one is actually mine..)

Well..i really wish i could hop that high. But, I can balance up there for a short bit of time.

This was on our Berkeley uni tour from a month or so ago.

I’m an ice cream man for Halloween, complete with counter, several flavors of real ice cream, and cones. I gave a bunch of ice cream away at Jason’s party on Saturday night, and I hit up Cafe Macs at Apple today while at work. If you didn’t get some, and you work with me at Apple, you better come by my office!

If you live in Santa Cruz, well I’ll be cruising downtown, so keep your eye out for me. I have a white shirt with red strips. And ice cream.

Pictures to follow..sometime. Ellie was the picture person at Jason’s extravaganza.

Last weekend, I went to a Masquerade Ball at the Alpine Butterfly Lodge. Anna took a loot of cool pictures. My mask was sooo ghetto! But oh well. next year I’ll do better.

My sister sent me this great card in the mail:

If you don’t know me, well, I really like monkeys. And, I like sock monkeys (i got my first one when i was one).

Boy. I read an article on Wired about Absinthe and it really makes me want some! I guess I can buy some online, if I really want.

I’ll probably just wait until I’m in Spain (at the end of November for about 8 days), and pick some up then :)

I had a sip of some at Burning Man; it was pretty good stuff!

…there is the “Climbing Light”:

Very cool! it makes me want one :)

Last Sunday, I saw the film Wallace and Grommit. I must say that I really enjoyed it! I love gadgets, and the movie was full of them. Plus, I love animation, and claymation is pretty close to regular animation. And, in addition, there were lots of adult puns thrown in the mix (ie: “May contain nuts”).

This dog, seen in Corralitos, CA on our Coker unicycle ride, was traveling in style behind a nice motorcycle:

He had this little area to stick his head out of. You gotta love the pirate flag!

The back is nicely done!

If he wanted to get out of the wind, he could tuck underneath, and still see forward through a little glass window!
