And Christmas is fast approaching. I've gotten most of my shopping done, so that's a load off of my back. I still have a few people to take care of.
Friday - Co-worker carpooled home with me since his gf lives out in SG and has season tix to the Lakers. Picked up Sar and dropped off co-worker at his gf's house. Drove over to Santa Anita mall to pick up my new shoes =) Thank you, babie! Then took her to JoAnn's to pick up art supplies for her workshops she'll be doing at the JACCC. Got some pizza at Red Brick in Alhambra and then drove out to Century City to visit HoHo, her Aunt and Uncle at the Hospital. Met up with J afterwards and went to starbucks for some late night coffee.
Saturday - Mad dash for xmas shopping. For the sake of keeping my gift to Sar a secret... i won't say where we went. Sorry Sar. Nice try ;) After shopping, went to eat at In-n-out and then the girls wanted to wrap gifts at Sar's house.
Sunday - Not much today. Lunch at Shau-may (Thanks HoHo!) and did more xmas shopping. Finished off with dinner at the Outback. I had the Drover's platter... which is just BBQ ribs and chicken. I think it's a lil too much bbq. Felt bad for Sar since she got the Jackaroo chops... and i LOVE the chops... but she didn't like them. :(
Yep... same 'ol boring weekends.

And it blows. Serious weekend killer. The only upside to this is that i am able to drive the G to work since there is zero traffic. I'm here early since over the weekend, our buildings had to undergo power fail-safe testing. So today i have to be here to make sure nothing went wrong.
On to weekend overview...
Friday: WTF did i do friday? Oh yah, went to Sar's house and picked up Sam Woo for dinner with her dad and sis. Stayed in to watch Hitch.
Saturday: Woke up early to go get a facial. Picked up Sam Woo (again) for my family to eat. Helped clean garage. Threw away TONS of crap... yet the garage looks no different =X. Sar came by to help and then i decided to go with her to a Christmas party held in Tarzana since she looked dead tired and i didn't want her to drive in that condition. I knew the drive was far and it just happened to turn out it was literally down the same street where i used to work for IBM at Washington Mutual. Took Sar home to have her freshen up and the results? Total babe with the hotness ;) Then off to the party with the Hottie and two of her friends that wanted to carpool. Party was nice. Had hours 'dourves, played some games and sat around and chatted. Drove everyone home around 2am.
Sunday: Woke up late (12pm) and went with Sar, her dad and sis to Lowe's to get a Christmas tree. Then took Charlie over to my house to meet the parents (hehe - Meet the Parents) after picking up McD's. Spent most of the day with the dog and then off to The Old Spaghetti Factory with Sar and Ho. I ordered the Pot Pourri spaghetti, which is basically all 4 of their sauces on one plate of spahetti. Of the meat, mushroom, cheese, and clam sauces... i think my favorite is the mushroom. Called it an early night since i had to be here at 5am.
It's monday and i can't wait until Friday.

Starbucks continually drains wallets all over the world. When did it get to the point where paying 7 times the normal amount for coffee become the norm?
That being said... this morning i'm enjoying my Grande Carmel Apple Cider =)
Friday: Leftovers at Sar's house and then Sar's sister's concert at CSULA. Then just watched Mr. & Mrs. Smith at my house.
Saturday: GAMEDAY!!! Had a party with a bunch of friends at Frisco's Carhop. Ate a little, watched a little, drank A LOT! Damn co-workers know how to party! A little obnoxious on some of their part... but it's all in good fun.
Met up with Ho, her aunt and her two kiddies and headed over to Rose Hills for their annual Christmas festivities. We waited in line for the sled and then for Santa. I'm not sure why the line to see the decorated Christmas trees was so long, but you could've waited in a shorter line for Santa and still seen the trees. Oh well. Then Sar, Ho, and myself met up with J for some Chinese food. Called it a night at 12:30am.
Friday: Woke up at 12pm and washed my Prelude. Found out my HIC license plate that was already cracked... totally broke off. Also found the paint chipping off the corner of the front bumper. Car is starting to show wear and tear. =(
Met up with Sar and her dad to pick up a quick Christmas gift and then I took Sar to the Santa Anita mall where she paid one of her CC bills and picked up a bday gift for one of her friends. She also bought my Christmas gift early only b/c it's a pair of Puma shoes that i like, but she needed to know which size i needed. In the end, Champs still didn't have my size so we had to order it. And if you're curious... it's these:
Had dinner at Olive Garden and met the best waiter ever. Definately going back to Whitter for Mike D. Great guy. Hooked it up. Gave him a fat tip (30%).
Came home to help J move a TV and then took Sar home.
Back to the work week grind.
