I tried to do a blog from my iPhone using the WordPress App, but for some reason it keeps thinking I don’t have internet connection. Probably a glitch from the jailbreaking.

Anyways, I really want one of these. Seriously. How cool would it be to roll up in one of these on a golf course or at the beach? This thing would be a definite head turner.

I went to the golf range today for the first time in about nine months. As expected, my golf swing sucks. Pounding 180+ golf balls didn’t really help either. In fact, hitting that many balls may have tweaked my back. It’s a little sore at the moment along with my left hand.

In between pounding golf balls, I took a few snapshots. I waited until the sun was setting so I could attempt to capture some flare. This is my favorite pic of the bunch. What do you guys think?

For some reason, I love photographing the Pennisetum Setaceum Rubrum, also known as Purple Fountain Grass. The previous picture that I posted is actually my current wallpaper on my Macbook Pro.

I think what I love about it is the nice color that it can produce. If I ever get a house where I can do some landscaping, I will probably incorporate this into it somehow.

It’s official. We are moving out of the fabulous beach front condo and into a single family house my roommate just closed escrow on. Congrats, roomie!

With the rash of robberies that occurred in our facility and area in April, I was planning on moving and getting my own place. Ironically, the day I started looking, my roommate dropped the news that his offer for a home he didn’t think he was going to get, was excepted. He extended an offer for me to rent out a room at his new place but I initially told him that I wanted to keep my options open and to see if I could get my own place first.

After about two weeks of looking on Craigslist, I learned two things- 1 bedroom apt/condos and studios were either out of my price range or they were located in less than ideal areas. Since it was looking like I was going to have to share a place again, I decided on excepting my current roommates offer of renting one of the rooms at his new home.

We need to be out of the condo by June 14th, which leaves a little over a week to pack. Luckily, I don’t have too many things here so the move should be fairly easy. As much as I am going to miss this place, I’m excited to be moving.

I wanted to take this opportunity to pay my respects to family, friends and coworkers who have recently lost a loved one. To my father -who lost a brother, my friends – who lost parents, and to my coworker – who lost a daughter. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
