camping time!

I am so excited to go camping today. Neil and I went to REI on Monday and loaded up on a bunch of goodies including a sweet ass tent, sleeping bags, stoves and more. I absolutely love camping so I'm expecting to try and make at least 4 trips each summer. This will also be Peezy's first camping trip. They are both napping right now but I don't think they have any idea as to what is going on. Jeni and Carlos headed up to the campsite earlier today. Their dogs Pachuco and Bellatrix are on hand although bellatrix just had her ears done. They are all stitched up so that mean Peezy won't be able to play with her as much. Well I am off now. I will post when I get back. Peace out! Ro

That redbull is no joke. i was able to effortlessly make it through the night... the only problem is that i killed 2 redbulls since 11pm and now I cant SLEEP!!! rarr... I can't wait to go camping tomorrow and let my lioness feel at one with the forest. Peace! Ro

Keep Tahoe in mind these next few days...

This is going to be a quick post but I wanted to tell everyone to keep beautiful Lake Tahoe in their thoughts and prayers over the next few days. One of my favorite places on earth is being tormented by a huge fire, the worst fire ever experienced by that area... I hope the fire fighters can contain the fire and that they can save as much of the land as possible.

my green family...

from the sj mercury : When Oskar and Arzhang Kalbali *my awesome uncles* decided to build San Jose's first green retail project, they didn't expect city planners to roll out the red carpet. Neither did they expect to run into red tape. But that's exactly what happened. Whether they asked for financial help to install solar panels, promptness in delivering permits or just some advice on how to build green, the brothers were stymied. Same thing for David Kaneda, who is turning a 1960s-era concrete bank building into the city's first commercial structure to meet its net energy needs from the sun. `Business as usual' Both the Kalbalis and Kaneda thought the city would greet their projects with excitement. But planners treated their projects just like any other. Which is to say, slowly. There was no one trained in sustainability issues, and no one assigned to oversee their efforts. "We told them, `I'm about to make this project happen, how can you h...

Ahhhh.. things are looking are slowly getting back to normal.

Wow. What a day. I am on the train and headed home on the 6:15 train. This is awesome. I haven't left work this early in a while... and we are almost 90% done with this huge project that I've been on. So things are looking sweet dude!! I am headed to Seattle next week but that's going to be a very cool trip and filled with making some big business deals so that's a first for me and it should be exciting to be a part of some strategic planning. Tonight is going to be nice. I just ordered some PF Changs for take out. I'm gonna pick it up, go home and relax with the mini-fam. I can't wait. I seriously don't know what I would do without Rocco, Peezy and Neil. Those 3 cheer up every time I set foot in the house. They've also put up with a lot of 'tude (short for attitude) mostly due to stress. I am going to spend this weekend putting my house back together, golfing, having fun and last but not least treating my dad to a special fathers day. I also have an...

I need this blog as my outlet more than ever right now!!

Its Friday night... 7:40pm and the sun is setting or has seemed to set in SF. I am peering from my suite on the 5 star Cal Train hotel. After working an insane insane amount this week, I was looking forward to a date night tonight. Something Neil and I had planned a week before... I am starting my date night off to a terrible start. I'm on a train, and its not just any train, its the LONG train that makes EVERY stop from SF to SJ. I get to see every city's cal train stop on the way home. YES! I am so excited. What a way to travel right? WRONG. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Now, I still love my job but I'm on a very challenging project that has consumed my mind for the past 3 weeks. Last night, I was on a computer from 7am until 11pm. I might have had a break of 1-2 hours but that's it. Crazi, right? I guess it can only get better from here. I have no BIG trips planned this summer ...

New Look New Week

I warned you all (all 2 of my blog readers)... I have ADD when it comes to my blog and I love changing the layout so just bare with me. The latest design is fun for the summer so I plan on keeping it around until we approach September. I have lots to talk about regarding my weekend... including pics from Jeni and Carlos's wedding day. I will share that and more sometime this week. I hope your week goes great and check out this clip of Sarah Silverman ripping up Paris Hilton in front of a huge national television audience (aka MTV Movie awards):
