Sometimes People In Hawaii Really Irk Me!

Okay so I went to get lunch at a local restaurant. Normally the people who work there are really on top of things, but today I got the ONE woman who always screws up people's orders. "May I help you?" "Yeah, I'll have the turkey and avocado sandwich on 10-grain bread, to go, please." "What kind of... Sign in to see full entry.

Finally, Pictures From Hiking Last Weekend!

Here are the pictures from the hike J and I took last Saturday! As you can see from my hair, it was a windy day! And as you can see from my face, it was a tiring hike--easy, but uphill all the way. Enjoy! Sign in to see full entry.

Pictures Taken The Day Before The Hawaii Earthquake

These were taken the day before the earthquake here. J and I took the long, scenic way home after buying groceries. Pretty Mountains! A Quiet Beach Rabbit Island (so named because there used to be tons of rabbits on it) Sign in to see full entry.

What? Today Is A Holiday!?

I normally wake up at 5:30am on weekdays so that I can leave the house by 6:30am to get to work by 8:00am because traffic normally SUCKS on this island. So, this morning I did my usual routine and left by 6:30am. I was in the parking structure for work by 7:00am!!! It took a measley half and hour to... Sign in to see full entry.
