Summer fun
Last weekend after the World Cup final, Roothie and I undertook a small project to rid my front door area of this hideous looking fern. Equipped with some help from a knowledgable neighbor, we went through the box, took out all the rocks, and uprooted the bloody thing.

A few bags of soil and some random flowers from Osh later, we've got a mini set of flowers going and they're still alive!

My blog readership hit an all-time high after the proposal a week or so ago.. look at how popular I am across the US over that week!

Amidst the newfound busyness of wedding planning, I decided to shop around for a new car. I had to call around a bit, but a dealership in Tracy that could get a Prius within a week! This was way better than the ~4 month turnaround time at the first couple places I called that were closer, so it was well worth the drive out.


Right by the dealership was also this restaurant called Golden Corral that Felix was super excited about; it's a buffet place that has all sorts of barbeque type food. It's the only one in Northern California, so it made a convenient excuse to visit, so Daniel and Felix came along to pick up the car. We ate so much food and came away completely stuffed!
In addition to the stock vehicle and the after-market leather, Roothie added her own touches to the car:


I.. like it?
Hehe.. just kidding. Look, I got a hot girl in my car!

Congrats on the new car! I see you picked up some British lingo ("bloody") :) One of my residents is a Brit, who was spouting such words during the World Cup, which was quite fun.
How come Hawaii isn't on that map?
thanks! except now roothie gets to drive it for the next month! :)
hrm.. maybe there's a bug in analytics... there never seems to be a dot at hawaii and it's clearly incorrect!
Dude, I want one! Ugh, I need to fix up my car before I can get trade it in. :(
you didnt explain to everyone why we chose an elephant to put on the dashboard!
and i hope our flowers will grow lots and prosper...esp after i leave, since youll have to remember to water them! :)
nice man, hey can i have your corolla? i'll let you take a picture of your car with a hot gerald inside...
wow, a hot gerald would be hotter than hot!
i'll try remember to water the flowers :(
hey, why did you put an elephant on the dashboard?
oh yeah, thanks for stopping by and showing us your car. what did you name it, by the way?
roothie wanted to give the car a name to coincide with its color, so an elephant fit nicely. i think its current name is either phants or bar-bar. :(
i prefer dumbo, myself
Name it Titus
i was gonna name it bertier, but it'd take too long to explain to ppl where it came from. they wouldn't understand the signficance.
bertier? after huBERT?
hey strong-side... you're not actually going to marry someone who doesn't know who bertier is are you?
that was pretty deflating.
we might have to watch it every night for the next week. there will definitely be a test...
hubie is really making me watch that silly titans movie tonight. :(
hey strong-side... you're not actually going to marry someone who thinks titans is a silly movie, are you?
who appointed hubert strong side and geraldoh left side?
and wasnt titus the referee that was calling all those bogus calls?
wow, i catch smthg new everytime i watch that movie.
i think i'm in love!!!
