in long beach right now. had a pretty long week back home in oakland -- standard and normal events, though. i decided to fly down for the weekend to hang out with my friend mike. he's at the gym right now (someplace i need to be) and i'm just waiting for him to get back. i think we're heading on down to LA in a bit to check out some of the *tourist* places. i haven't really done that in this area since i was like in high school back in the 80's.

last night we did the long beach bar crawl -- i was tired so most of it was spent cruising around in mike's car and me saying, "yay" or "nay" (sp?). it was mostly, "NAY" much to mike's chagrin (sp?).
