Justin wins both showcases at the showcase showdown.

Every time Tim and go to Costco we play a game called guess the total amount we spent today. I am the returning champion of this really stupid thing we do. Today, I rocked the foundation at Costco when I guessed the exact amount. To the penny I guessed it. I was abnormally excited about this, and even put the receipt on the fridge as a monument to my "Price is right-ing" ability. I promptly forgot about this until I got home from work, saw the receipt and then got really sad about how lame I am.

Your blog at: http://repercussionsofamusement.blogspot.com/ has been identified as a potential spam blog.

Today I received an email announcing that the masters of the interwebs think my blog is possibly spam. There are two plausible causes. 1- My first ever post had the word "porn" in the title. 2- (This is the most likely cause) Someone thought my blog rocked too hard for them and they reported it out of their deep seeded fear of head explosions from reading it.

Today I didnt even have to use my A.K. I got to say it was a good day.

Today was one of my few days off of late. I have been working 6 days a week for a couple months now, and usually my days off are filled with homework. Not today. In the morning we dropped off Tim's jeep for repair (finally) and then I went out in search of surf. I went to a hotel beach which I had never been to before and attempted to surf for an hour or so. The waves were like a foot or 2 which on a short board means that I have to paddle about as fast as my arms will go (I am confident they look like hummingbird wings when I do this) so I didn't catch much. I eventually left this beach in search of the perfect wave. I drove around for about an hour and did not find anything. When arriving home, I began to drink some Sam Adams Oktoberfest and watched Forgetting Sarah Marshall which I received in the mail today along with Kurt Vonnegut's Mother Night. It was like Christmas for my pants. I know that didn't make sense. Then, completely sober Tim and I offroaded in a jeep liberty which he got as a courtesy vehicle on the coast. It is a pretty nice stretch of coast even though no one takes care of it. There is trash all over the place and abandoned vehicles, it is kind of sad. There is also a coast guard watch tower, and in order to do our part in the clean up I tied a tv we found around my waist. Then, I scaled the tower and we threw the tv at the ground so it would explode (read: esplode). Following watching the sunset over a demolished tv, I passed out for like 3 hours. I feel like I haven't really gotten out in awhile to do anything worth while so even though today was kind of a bust it was really nice to feel the sunshine.
