Nadine and I took a little trip to NY last weekend for our 2nd year anniversary. Us two… no kids… in the city that never sleeps… we were constantly doing stuff. It was such good times.
Here are some quick pics… I’ll post more about the trip very soon!
Have you ever perused the Mazda USA website? If you have, you may have stumbled across the Tuning section where they also list a bunch of featured tuned Mazdas. How cool is that? Who else does that? I guess the exception is Scion, but Scion caters to the kiddies, so there’s not much of a surprise there.
Anyway, check out my buddy Justin’s car recently featured on Mazda’s website!
Justin’s Profile on mazdausa.com
You can also see Calvin Wan’s FD and the Apex’i FD when it was cool looking.
Okay, so I have to post again so I don’t have Clay Aiken at the top of my journal haha!
Ultimate Tool Co
So my good buddy Scott has started this new business selling unique tools from Japan – more specifically KTC Japan. Check it out – he’s got some great stuff!
Here’s some of my favs:
Color coded thin wall wheel sockets! How often do you find yourself wasting your time picking up your wheel socket looking carefully for the etched 17mm or 21mm writing? TOO LONG! I never have to look now. Genius!
Square sockets! Don’t strip the fill/drain plugs anymore on your LSD or transmission!! Just buy these and be one step ahead ahead of caveman status!
Panel popper set. I have 2 newish cars, so unlike with my s13s, I actually care if I break those stupid tabs holding my interior panels together. Scott says this is actually his best seller.
If you’re interested in any of these things, please don’t hesitate to order! He’s a personal friend of mine and I definitely vouch for him. Don’t worry about his sketchy website either – we’ll work on that pretty soon!
I just heard this on the radio… he announced that he’s gay. Seriously – I thought he was already gay??
He could have gone through his entire career without announcing that he’s gay, and people would already know!
Fabulousssth!
So a couple weeks ago, I had to go to Atlanta for a business trip. I was pretty stressed because I’ve never been away since Elise was born… Nadine would have to be a single parent of 2 kids for a week. We planned the best we could and with the help of Nadine’s brother and her parents, the week went OK. It was a ton of work for her but I’m glad she made it through ok. Kristy was a big help of course.
Before I left we decided to do something special as a family so we all went to the beach together. We always TRY to go to a different beach in Orange County but parking is always horrible… and we end up going to the tried and true – Crystal Cove. You pay around $7 and you are assured a safe place to park – not on a public street crammed between 2 cars.
It was Elise’s first time to the beach and she did SUPER well. She laid on her tummy and played with her toys and then she sat up with mom while I made tunnels in the sand with Kristy. She’s never made a tunnel before! What a noob!
Going to Atlanta was really hard. I missed the family everyday that I was gone.
Memorable things I got to do while in Atlanta:
Pretend that I had a grill everywhere I went.
Eating at the Waffle House – hash browns all the way. I felt HORRIBLE after eating that.
Going to an Atlanta Braves game in the all you can eat and all you can drink section. Pretending that I had a grill.
