Ok FINE! I'll Update My Blog So You Stop Harrassing Me.

Geez, its been a while since my last post (2 years???). Here are some random pics to get you somewhat informed with me....

P.S., Future Entries: "Ask Me How it Feels to Be....... An UNCLE!", "What Do LDS Singles Do For Spring Break Besides Read Their Scriptures?"



SOooo, this is what my knee looked like after my 2nd knee surgery. I didnt like the way i looked in a bathing suit so i had the dr. do some things....



So right after surgery mom came to visit and i was itching like a dirty dog with fleas. The medicine had some itching effect on me and Mom treated me to a terrific scratcharoo. Thanks MOM!





This is embarrassing but the story behind this is I wanted to recreate a picture taken from the first time I had surgery (the original pic is in this blog somewhere). Unfortunately, we did a horrible job even though Taylor was a good sport about it.





The first picture goes out to all those who supported me while i was crippled and in bed. Particularly my mother Diane and my lil bro Chief Wampum. If your name belongs here too, let me know. I dont want to leave you out on a dedicatory picture as special as this one.


The tongue picture goes to Robert Horry, the Spurs, Bruce Bowen, that stupid, betting ref, and especially Robert Horry.












Here's me and John Malfatto during one of my many trips to visit his bachelor pad on the San Diego beach. Lookin' tough, John.



Oh snap. This had to be one of the funniest things i've ever done. Long story short, Cory, Brad and I would stand outside the Wahoo's in Huntington Beach and look up at a tree and yell "Come down from there!" over and over and everyone would look up in the tree and ask what was going on. Answers varied from "my pet turtle is stuck up there" to "someone's going to jump, we think he's suicidal." If you click on the pic, you can count over 8 rubberneckers. IceSkatieKatie was in on the act.


At the opening of the Newport Beach temple with Brad and Chory during the same '05 trip to CA.


Inside joke, but if ur not laughing, something is wrong.





Cory smiling at a hottie. Brad caught in the headlights. Best roomies ever.





Another good '05 memory: Jon Passey riding my standup jetski pulling me on a surfboard at Bartlett Lake. Its so beautiful there in the morning.





Me and Rybo at FatBurger, July '07 when Cbug and I went to pick up my new truck in Vegas.






Here's me and Cbug on our flight to Vegas. I couldnt hold back my excitement.



Bug couldnt' hold back her brattiness.





Ok, if we're going to talk about Cbug, then I get to post at least a few of our best pics. Summer of '06 (one of the 3 summers we dated, haha) on the way back from visiting John in San Diego. Love the sunset.




BUG!!! Listen to me when i'm talkin to you!





Going to ride was a bi-weekly thing for me and Bug. We even fit my LTZ400 and DRZ4o0 in my truck and rode down at the track together!



Dbackin' it.


Takin inventory in the CurboCycles garage.



Cory and I got sick of the usual Mesa "rent out a YMCA, hire a dj to play burnt out music, and charge at the door" parties, so we threw a 2007 Spring Break SmoothieFest where we offered free smoothies to everybody. It was super chill and all the hottest and coolest were there.


Here's a photo I snapped of Steve and Dirk at the SmoothieFest. Dirk, did you put something in your's and Steve's smoothie? EUROPEANS....


Sometimes I trick super quality girls like Emilie into visiting me in AZ.


While she was in town, we went to the lake with the Kemptons. Here's a photo i took while Chandler and Trent were being all Kemptonish, trying to help out with getting the trailer hitched. One of my fav. pics.










What would this blog be without a good pic of the Kemptons? Pre-Ashley days.




On another SoCal trip this summer, I took Kaitlyn to the OC Fair. Among other things, we watched Lucha Libre wrestling....you know, the Mexican wrestling where they dress up funny like Nacho Libre? It was sooooo romantic that we decided we had to take a few photos at a booth to remember the night. More pics to come later. Look for Kaitlegs and her bro Brandon on American Idol this season if you watch that show...




Win 'em with the smile



Get Ugly



Take no prisoners



Random time.





MY SISTERS!!!!!!!!!! They look "ssssoooooOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOD!" (in teenage girl squad voice).




One of my all time fav. pics. Taylor had some weird circular red scab inbetween his eyebrows, so i started calling him "Hindu Woman", cuz don't they wear those red dots on purpose? Anyways, it served up a week full of laughter and endless teasing. This pic captures some of the hilarity.





Halloween got old for me when i was 13. But being single, you force yourself to go out and make the best of it even though you'd rather be taking your kids door-to-door. Hey, at least i make a heck of a cowboy.....YoSammitySam cowboy.






My heart races when i see this picture. I got to spend an afternoon playing a 7 inning baseball game with my Dad at Chase Field where the Dbacks play. One of the most exciting days of my life, even though I had torn my ACL in my left knee only a few days before. We got tailored uniforms with our names and fav. numbers on back.....got to play with the coaches and players....and even get called up to bat by the announcer and have our names on the big screen!!!! This happened a year ago but it was only 3 months ago that I stopped having dreams that the Dbacks had signed me after watching me play. No SERIOUSLY!





During batting practice I hit 2 foul that would've been homers and one that double bounced to the fence! Pretty good for having a torn ACL.








When i'm not playing for the Dbacks (or pretending to), I'm usually in the stands punking out 'roidheads like Barry Bonds. Its unfortunate the picture was taken a second too late, cuz initially Bonds was looking into the camera.





I've given up snowboarding, skateboarding, and wakeboarding but i still cling to surfing and wakesurfing. Night time is when its best if you ask me.








Haha, if you click on the pic and get a close up of Robert Kempton's face, you'll want to start singing the theme song to Dukes of Hazard "Just the good ol boys....never doin' no harm...". This is us wakeboarding in mud where the 202 freeway was being built after a serious rainstorm. There's actually a rope tied to the ATV so we'd take turns pulling each other down the mud/water strip.(Spring of '06)





Here's an awesome pic in Irvine,CA when Ryan and I went on a "twinners" date with Nikki and Jenny. This is during the summer when Ryan and I sold pest control together (2002). Initially, Ryan was too cool to do a twinners' date, but we obviously convinced him otherwise.

Good job on the update. I was wondering if you had given up on blogging after a 2 year break. sheesh! So, what are you up to these days? Do you live in Az? California? Your life looks fun and adventurous!! Always going somewhere fun!! I miss the ol BYU ward...sometimes want to go back and visit with my little boy and big tummy. Embarassing! Anyways, SO good to hear from you!! Keep in touch and keep having fun!!

Jenny said...

the captions do add more entertainment.

Cara said...

Welcome back!!! I am confused though....are you dating BUG?? It was fun to see you and Taylor when you were here for his lacrosse games. Hopefully we can all get together sometime soon.....I guess that means someone has to get married or go on a mission (seems to be the only times we get together!!) Maybe it will be Heather!!????....

Curtis Heyman! Won't you give me a call some time and we can start our own ad agency for crying out loud! If you ever get on here and read this, that is.

A. I love that you have a personal blog, B. I can't believe how extensive your bike collection is now, and C. Great throw back to summer 02'. Amazing that I am the only one that looks nothing like that picture anymore. Everyone else looks the exact same.
