We sang as we walked...

Today I made The Kip walk, or more correctly the city of San Fran did. Just F.Y.I., you can not buy a 3 day bus pass on Sunday. So we walked. Blocks and blocks we walked. Me and The Kip walk to Fisherman's Wharf, thats right, "The" Fisherman's Wharf. We ate some food served by a person that looked like a man, sounded like a woman and had the facial hair of a 15 year old boy. At least it was good. Then we did other touristy things. We walked up to the Coit Tower. I forget what it is and why it was there, but it was tall and on the top of a hill. On the way home we walked through China town where The Kip enjoyed many shiny crystalline things. Now that we are back in the hotel we are enjoying not walking.

Travel Lodge SUCKS!

As soon as we checked into the Travel Lodge SFO North, we knew we had made the right choice. The room came with complimentary Cheerios and off brand M&Ms on the floor. The bathroom had the softest floor mats you can imagine(I believe they were made from left over 'personal' hairs from former guests). Our lovely neighbors, on both sides, didn't stop screaming/slamming their doors until 4 A.M. this morning. And they were good enough to start again at 6 A.M. So that we knew for sure was time to find another hotel and leave. So we settled on a lil' hole in the wall, gold crown rated place in downtown San Fran. , called Club Donatello. We may made a mistake. No Cheerios, no hairs. Just clean everything. And who wants to watch a 36" flat screen while they are on vacation.

Delays!

We arrived at the SLC airport at 5 to find out our 6:20 flight was delayed because of wind. WIND! So we sat, until 10:20. And when we arrived at our hotel in San Fran my wallet was gone. Lucky for me Jetblue found it in the SLC terminal. So now I just have to get it here before I need to prove that I'm me so I can Fly to Japan. Let the good times roll!

Packing!

Me and The Kip finally finished up th packing last night. And we took a minute to pose by our luggage so The Vida could take a pic. The Kips a lil' camera shy.

Ion Supply Drink! Yes please!

Heres something you may not know about Me and The Kip; we are suffering from the largest known Ion deficiency. And as everyone know that low ions = piles of things that are bad for you, your loved ones. Not to mention that really comfy pair of shoe you love so much will be totally ruined.
You may be wonder how you can tell if your Ions are far below there natural or American levels. It's a very simple test.
Step 1: Look at a can of Pocari Sweat.
Step 2: Ask yourself this question, "Would I drink something that has sweat in the name?"
Step 3: Anylizing your answer:
If you said, "No" and got a lil' scared, either your ions are fine, or your a sissy. I'm guessing sissy.
If you said, "I've never been that thirsty." Your ions are flowing just fine.
If you said, "I'll just have a sip of yours." Then you had better go find your own before I mess-up your ions.
If you said, "I'll take a dozen!" Then you maybe need your ion levels adjusted via Pocari Sweat.

If you don't think The Sweat is for you, you can just sit back and enjoy 20oz of Pepsi "Ice Cucumber". You made your choice. Now drink up.

How many socks is too many?

I(Me) started packing (I know its still 2days away, but I'm excited, lay off) and I'm a lil' low on socks. I have, I think, 6 pair of non-dress a.k.a. "church" socks in my possession as we speak. And of those six, I am wearing one pair, and at least 2 pair are dirty. That means I have 3 pair to pack. But, after 2 more days of dressing myself (yes I do dress myself, how well is up for debate) I will be down to one clean pair of socks.
Now, do I buy enough socks for the entire trip or pack the one clean pair I have and buy the rest when i arrive on scene?
"I was this close," he says holding holding his thumb and index finger about an inch apart, "to taking option one and buying them all before hand."
But then I remembered ninja or Tabi socks! And I realized that I really had no choice to make, that the Tabi sock had made my decision for me. 'Cause lets be honest folks, with my heavy, high drag coefficient socks, I'm lucky if i can kick six or seven guys in the face. While these numbers are impressive by mortal standards, I have set a higher standard for myself and The Kip. But when I am sporting these shiny, light weight, aerodynamic tabi socks, those numbers should be in the low 40's and near 100kitfps(kicks-in-the-face-per-second) when I get used to them.
