Actually this isn’t the begining, but it is the begining of us really house hunting. For the past 6 months we have been using Redfin and Trulia to search for homes that we might be interested in. The problem we ran into with Redfin is that the concept is great and their search is top notch, but they won’t work with short sales. Now hold on before you tell me short sales suck, I already know this. I’m just interested in trying for the homes we like, and if that involves the possibility of a short sale I want to be able to make sure I’m using a Realtor that wants to work with us to find our home. This is what brings us to our possible new Realtor, Dan Slater from Orange Realty. He seems like a really nice guy so that’s a start. He mentioned he is a board member on the city of Orange Chamber of Commerce and he knows one of the marketing guys at my work. Next I’ll have to see if my barber knows him (Dick seems to know everyone). Here are our housing qualifications.
We are looking for homes under the $400k range and we don’t want to deal with PMI
We love Orange and would love to live in the Plaza area but we know we can’t afford that, so we are looking in a couple various Neighborhoods in Orange and also Garden Grove.
3 Bedroom 1+/2 Bath
1000+ Sq/Ft house on 7000+ Sq/Ft lot
Prefer to have a back yard without a pool
2 car garage is a must
He’s going to take us out looking at homes on Sunday, so that should be fun. I will keep you all posted on how things go and I’ll try to take some pictures of the homes we go look at.
Oh and for you political fans, no this is now Dan Slater from Colorado. ;)

Action packed movie that just kept going and going. I liked the story and the use of technology although it was a little out of whack of what could happen in real life. None the less I’m the guy that watched Alias and that was a comic book world, so this was a good watch.

Solid funny buddy flick. I think the hype had sort of wore off by the time we saw it. Really had some funny parts, but some of it was just a little too goofy.

Sort of slow and pretty weird, but all together fun. Total indie flick, has a number of laugh moments and heart moments.

As great if not better then the first one. Great story and lots of action. Really like Christian Bale as the Dark Knight!

Mmmmm Anne Hathaway. Entertaining walk down memory lane and Carell does a good job playing Maxwell Smart. Oh and did I mention MMMMmmmmm Anne Hathaway?

This movie could have been so much better if it wasn’t for them wanting to make a big action scene at the end. If they had ended the movie at the point that Bruce thought he was cured it would have set the movie up perfect for the Abomination to be in the sequal.

Don’t mess with this movie. It’s not worth the plastic it’s printed on, even for the few big jokes that made me laugh.

Really cool flick that I liked a lot. Sort of different for the fact that it’s a story within a story, but this is a can’t be missed movie.

I really liked this movie, wasn’t great but it was a real feel good movie. Kelly wasn’t as big on it as me, but it was solid fun.

Another comedy for the list. I really like Paul Rudd and I’m already a fan of Seann William Scott so this was a no brainer to see.
We went to Santa Monica 3rd Street yesterday and there were lots of No on Prop 8 supporters. Kelly, my mom, and I got stickers are wore them all day. We saw lots of supporters throughout LA waving signs in support of No on 8, I haven’t seen this much action to election day ever. I wonder if the turn out will be must higher then in previous presidential election years. I read that the Church of Latter Day Saints spent over $20,000,000 in support of Yes on 8… Maybe they should spend that money on helping people instead of supporting discrimination. Oh well. Also heard the Catholic Church was the #2 supporter of Yes on 8, little do they understand that their own people oppose Prop 8 at a 2-1 ratio.
Then there is Prop 4, the one that tries to paint Planned Parenthood as some organization that unlawfully doesn’t report possible rape, incest, and abuse to the authorities. Prop 4 is the initiative that would prohibit abortion for unemancipated minors until 48 hours after physician notifies minor’s parent, legal guardian or, if parental abuse has been reported, an alternative adult family member. The commercials in support of it are trying to show that bad bad men constantly rape girls and drive them to the doctors to get abortions, and this will continue without it passing. Guess who is supporting this Prop? Pretty much the same organizations that support Prop 8.
Lastly we have Prop 2, whose supporters advertise with clips from farms that were already illegally treating animals badly. Prop 2 is in support of allowing farm animals for consumption time outside of cages and freedom to move around. I all for the better treatment of animals, regardless if it’s a pet or an animal for consumption, but the commercials themselves are sensationalistic because they are showing one farm that was fined for their treatment of animals (they were doing something illegal, this Prop wouldn’t have changed their actions).
Anyway, those are the big ones in CA. Not much else really going on, there is some measure J in Orange County regarding taxes (not much info on it), and I have some council members to choose and a school board member for Santa Ana.
Election coverage should be fun tomorrow.
So for those that haven’t heard we got a new car. I don’t have any great pictures to show of it yet, I’ll take some this weekend to show it off. We got a 2008 Infiniti G35 Journey Sedan Sport (that’s a mouthful!). The car is just amazing, talk about power, 0-60 in 5.4 seconds, 306 HP, V6 with RWD. I absolutely love the car. In addition to all the power it’s great inside, power leather seats, navigation, XM radio, it even has a back up camera! We are really enjoying it.
In addition to that I was able to get Apple to replace my iPhone due to various issues I was having with it crashing, hopefully this will resolve those issues, so far so good! Kelly has to take a trip up to San Francisco so she will be gone Thursday night till Friday night, I’ll miss her.
Other then that most everything else is good. We went to Oak Glen two weekends ago with all my family (parents, sister, brother in law and kids) and picked apples. We brought them home and Kelly cooked an apple pie, while I BBQ’d for everyone. It was nice all hanging out, I’m hoping we can start doing that more often on my side of the family. I did something to my left shoulder on Sunday morning and it’s been very painful when I extend it forward and do other various movements with it, so I’ve had to pull up lame on softball for awhile. If it still feels the same next week I’ll set up a doctors appointment to get it looked at; but as it is right now, I can’t swing a softball bat.
Work is good, very busy lately, but busy is a good thing, especially in this economy! My cousin Tim is getting married this weekend, I’m really happy for him! Next weekend we are going to see The Who!

Here are about 200 pictures I took at last nights game. It was such a blast!
I know I’ve been quiet lately, but I have to do a quick post here and cheer on my Dodgers! They are almost there and I’m really hoping they pick it up here and make it into the playoffs. I’m looking forward to it so much that I purchased tickets for both the Divisional Championship seriers and the League Championship Series! I got Field Box level seats for both games.

The good thing is that I wasn’t even sure what specific days these were but they work out perfectly with my schedule at work. I don’t have training on Oct. 2nd and on the 17th I should have already finished my training for that week, which means I shouldn’t have too much of an issue getting to the games, especially since Kelly should be able to leave work early so we can get to them.
