so yesterday me and mo hit up the REI in rancho. he called me 5 minutes before he got to my house and was like “i’m about to exit the freeway right now”. so shit, i jump out of bed put on the cleanest jeans i can find and grabbed any clean shirt from my closet. that clean shirt just happens to be my “GearSlut” shirt that i got from backcountry.com. i was the big talk amongst all the employees at REI. this guy came up to me and said “so youre the one with the shirt that everyone is talking about”. i guess my shirt stirred things up at REI. it turns out there is a guy who works at REI has like one or two of everything, by everything i mean gear. so this is the perfect shirt for him. after i was approached by the guy i noticed all these REI employees looking and smiling at me. yep… they dig my shirt and ONLY at REI i will get this type of appreciation for this shirt. thanks you guys! =)

i ended up spending (another) 100-something on some north face stuff, a waterproof stuff/compression sack (for my zion narrows trip), and a sigg water bottle. so 2008 REI anniversary sale i spent roughly $250, this is so much better than what i spent last year… last year at the anniversary sale ONE trip rang up close to $700. i am such a “GearSlut”.
after spending 2 hours at REI we headed over to victoria gardens to get some jamba juice and do some browsing at the apple store and the oakley store.
then i woke up this morning with a sore throat and stuffy nose. yup… i am sick. i mean, seriously… who the fuck gets sick in may?! i better get better soon, by soon i mean FAST. i blame my sickness on this whacky weather we’ve been having, and its suppose to drizzle tomorrow?! wtf mates!??!
