I am Returned. Actually, I Returned Like a Week Ago.
So, last weekend I visited my good friend Chris K. in San Jose, California. We had a great time. Also, I took many pictures.
I'm not going to write up a long post about the trip; most of what I have to say about it has been done so in the captions of the pictures. There are a couple of things about the trip that aren't addressed in the photos, though.
Firstly, we saw X-Men 3 on Friday night. It was pretty good, but it seemed a bit more focused on action than character development. Also, if you do go see it, make sure to stay through the credits.
Also, Chris has been looking for a good church to go to in the Bay Area. While we were at the In-N-Out restaurant, however, he pointed out the "secret messages" printed on the cups and burger packets. This got me to thinking, instead of church, he should just go to the In-N-Out every Sunday. Something to think about, anyway.
What else? Oh, yes, the weather. It seems odd to me that I should spend a weekend in California and have to wear a jacket the whole time, then return to Minnesota and be sweltering. Just doesn't seem right, but I'm not complaining.
Finally, Chris got to see what I think of as an ideally attractive woman while we were at the diner he frequents. I should have taken a picture. Damn. Maybe next time.
So, what did we learn from this trip?
1) Chris is no good for staying up late anymore.
2) X-Men 3 is okay, but make sure to stay after the credits.
3) Fast food = better than church.
4) If you're going to climb the Twin Peaks in San Francisco, make sure to do it on a clear day.
5) Seals are brown, lazy, and smelly.
Okay, that's it for now. Be sure to check out the photos! And pick your favorite pics and comments. Seacrest out!

Can't wait!
I am intrigued by the practical advice you're giving here. Some quick responses:
1. Yes, but we need to give it a good name. Unfortunately, "The Drive-in Church" was already started in Southern California. Maybe "In 'n Saved?"
2. I think it would have been really funny if you HAD taken a picture of that woman. "*Click*". "What are you doing?" "I think you're incredibly attractive." Talk about an awesome pick-up line!
3. Actually, those were sea lions. Seals are smaller and black. Probably still just as smelly.
4. Thanks for sharing the pics! Next time, if you post them on flickr, we'll be able to put comments directly on the photos.
I think my favorite photo was this one:

I love the way the bridge is framed, with the city on the bottom and the mountains on top.
The funniest photo was this one:

I can't tell whether I'm posing or not. Either way, I'm pretty goofy-looking.
Your captions were all funny, but my favorite caption was probably this one:
