Blathered away with my niece on our cell phones as I watched her on a live webcam while she stood in line with her friends outside a restaurant here in San Diego. Unorthodox video chat.

Cat-Sitting: Day One
Today begins my two half days and three full days of house and cat-sitting for the neighbors. Crossing the paths of eight black cats. What could go wrong?

A Pretty Fair Day
Went to the San Diego County Fair with Mary and her daughter Diana. Spent a bunch of time with different farm animals, enjoyed some pretty decent music, ate some great food, walked by a multitude of product barkers and checked out some really amazing exhibited photography. ( p i c s )

Half A Family Dinner
Had dinner with my mom, brother, nephew and his girlfriend at my older brother’s house. Was nice. Only got pictures of the food and pets, though. Didn’t feel that the humans were in the right mood.

Chula Vista Night Walk
Went out for a nighttime walk with the Tapias through some neighborhood streets of Chula Vista. No photos, but 2.5 miles worth of calories burned on this trip.
