Back from California

Well guys, I've been quiet for a little while but there's a good reason for that. You see, I was on a little get away trip to unwind a bit. I spent the weekend in Los Angeles visiting my good friends
ryuakira and
let
It was a great time. I arrived Friday. We went out to dinner and basically chilled at my hotel until it got late. Lots of nerd chatter and such until it got late and they had to leave. It was a pretty sweet hotel too considering I got to rent the room for basically 70 dollars a night. Woot promos!
While there we basically kicked around and had fun in Glendale. We ate places, visited stores and all that good stuff. I finally got a chance to try some authentic Falafel. Got to say I think I'm in love with that stuff. One place in particular we went was basically like a litle convention center called Frank and Son's. Ton's of booths selling collectors items. We obviously gravitated to the anime stuff. I really had to hold myself back on some things. Saw some awesome figures and Transformers but I ultimately ended up buying an artbook that was out of print last I checked.
When we weren't hitting the stores we were usually chilling at Let's place,watching videos and playing games. Ryu and I both bought Dissidia Duodecim so we often played that. We also watched the Darkstalkers OAV. We enjoyed it but often joked about how the story makes absolutely no sense at all. We also went out and saw Rango. Now that movie was just weird as hell.
Anyway, I had to leave on Monday. We had some last minute fun but man, I got to tell you, parting with friends at the airport is always so sad. We had a big group hug and I went to the checkpoints. I was texting with them until the plain had to leave. I missed them almost right away. Hell, I miss them right now.
Even so, we're still in touch obviously and we all agreed we need to get together again really soon. It was a great time and I love these guys. Great people I'm honored to call bro.
Now I just need to get them up here. ^.=.^
