This past weekend my girlfriend Mal wanted to head up north check out the University of Santa Clara. I hadn’t been to the bay since new years and additionally it was my boy Russo’s birthday weekend so I thought it would be a great time to return. We drove up Friday after work and made it to San Jose by 9. That night we drank some brew dogs and caught up with each other.

This past weekend Jeff and I headed to Phoenix Arizona to catch some Spring Training Baseball. Being a huge baseball fan, it was kind of amazing that I’d never been to Spring Training before. I’d gotten two pairs of tickets as a Christmas present from my girlfriend. We planned the weekend out and figured we’d drive and leave around noon on Friday and return Monday night after that day’s game.

From March 4th through March 8th it was Los Arroyos 10th year anniversary celebration. Los Arroyos is a very delicious Mexican restaurant in downtown SB. Year after year they are rated in the top 2 salsas in SB. Anyways, when I heard that they would be rolling their prices back to 1999 levels on some menu items I was pretty excited. I began spreading the news to friends, acquaintances, and whoever would listen. At first my housemates and I weren’t sure what the savings would really be. I mean, 1999 wasn’t that long ago, how much would we be saving? When we went on the opening night of the celebration we ordered food for four people and the total was $28. That was a pretty good deal seeing how I’d taken Mal there a couple weeks ago and it was that much for two people. The gist of it, select items were about half off, but still 100% delicious! After that first night, my roommate Jeff D. announced that he would “fully explore” their menu and was planning on eating there everyday until the prices returned to their less favorable 2009 levels. Initially we all laughed at him, but I was down to go along for the ride.

Recently one of our kitchen cupboards has been taken over by moths. At first it was kind of funny and a running joke in our house, but now its straight up ridiculous. I'd been keeping a head count but lost track after 30+ confirmed kills. Today, Jeff D and I went extermination on them. We completely emptied the shelves out and found some fucking cocoons. There were little white balls all over the place along with full grown moths swarming. After we sprayed hella simple green and vacuumed any lingering moths and cocoons, I'm feeling we've seen the last of those fuckers. I'll keep you all posted if we find anymore. I guess we all learned a lesson about the cycle of life. Rasin bran becomes maggots, which ultimately become moths. Up next, we need to kill all of those damn silverfish that live in our walls.
