Today I had my second little brother hang out. We went to Balboa Park. We first started with feeding the ducks which he really liked. Second was bike riding and since my bike tires were flat I had to roller blade with some really old roller blades. He was a beginner when it came to biking so I tried to help him as much as I could without killing myself being on roller blades. He hit a fence once but was doing pretty good until we hit a slight hill. He couldn't slow down so I tried to jump and help but releazed that I was no help since I was rolling backwards and into some bushes. He managed to stay up and made it down the hill but I did some great balancing tumbling act and managed to tweak my back a bit. After that I was done roller blading. We decided to walk around the park a little and he saw that there were paddle boats and wanted to ride. We had to walk all the way around the lake to get to them. While we did that we played some kick ball. We get to the paddle boat office and he says he wants to do a full hour. I tell him that we can do a half hour and if he want's to continue then we can extend it. Luckily I did that, because no more then ten minutes paddling around the lake he tells me that he is not feeling well and wants to go back. We paddle back and I tell him that it's time for lunch so we start the long walk back to the jeep. As we are walking back he tells me that he has to go to the bathroom, I tell him "oh that's fine thereb are bathrooms here" well come to find out that my "little" doesn't like to go to the bathroom #2 anywhere but home and he had to go for the past two hours and if he could just go home instead of lunch. So I took him home and only spent about 2 1/2 hours with him. The outing started out fun but ended abrubtly. Our next outing is going to be a movie outing.

Car repairs
Well I took my Jeep to Midas to have the brakes checked and I know by the sound they were making that it wasn't going to be cheap. I left it there and walked to work and a few hours later the guy called and gave me the bad news. Both back brakes are fine.. but the two front brake pads and brake rotars needed to be replaced and they also wanted to flush out my brake fluid. When it comes to places like this you never know if they are really telling you the turth or not but since I haven't not dealt with my brakes since I have had the Jeep (over a year) I figure it wouldn't hurt to take care of it now. So I paid $500.00 to have my brakes fixed... man this was an expensive weekend.

Wall of Serenity
I got these awesome pictures of the Firefly/Serenity Characters last year and they have been sitting up in my toy room for the longest time. They were an odd 10x10 and I couldn't find frames and they cost to me much money to not be protected. I finally found 10x10 frames on Ebay and bought them for a fair amount. I got the frames and they were great but they forgot to give me the glass for them so that took another week or so to get that and after months and months of waiting I finally was able to put up these beautiful pictures.
