05/09/08- 403 to the 250

Today was a decent day. My boss let my off early so i can get my shit right before i left. Ran some quick errands; hit the bank for some US funds, returned a movie at rogers and copped a couple of Vitamin waters so i can get my kobe on.

Didn't have to be at the airport until 5pm so i had a good 2 hours by the time i got home so i took a shower and hit up the mrs.' to tide her over for the next 24 hours. Your welcome btw.

Jordan was nice enough to drive us to the airport. Love Jordan. He's always there when you need him and never fails. Always w/ the best intentions but doesn't always come up with the best results.

Like today for instance. If any of you are Filippino then you know the usual "balikbayan" routine. you got your 2 pieces of carry on, your 1 big piece of luggage for your clothes and then one huge f'n cardboard box full of spam and shit. hahaha. But please believe i'm new age balikbayan. I don't do that box shit haha. So between me and Anne we had 8 pieces of luggage and my loving cousin shows up with his 4 door corolla. Now i have all the faith in the world in Jordan and given the chance he would've done that shit tetris styles, stuffed all 8 pieces in his car, me in the front and anne strapped to the roof. but for safety reasons we figured it would be best to call in the re-enforcements.

Lucky for us we were able to catch the elusive Vernasauras before she went down for her daily 14 hour hibernation period. We packed half the luggage in her whip and we were off to the airport.

Here's another good piece of travel advice. DON'T BELIEVE SHIT ABOUT BETTER BRANDS WHEN IT COMES TO LUGGAGE. We bought new Swiss luggage which was supposed to be really good shit but before i could even use it i busted the fucking handle. But to be fair it was probably the raw horse power pumping through my pipes. But still it was pretty fucking ghetto dragging my carry on be the strap.

BTW shout outs to the people who saw us off, J, Jer and Vern.

You guys don't suck.
