Hot & Cold

SoCal is pretty much on fire....I just got an email from my mom, saying that there's a fire in Irvine near a Toll Road that we used to drive on a lot and that fire jumped the freeway to the otherside.
I read somewhere that there are 15 fires burning in Southern California right now!!
Please pray for the firefighters and the people and structures that they are working to save.
In Houston weather news....a MEAN cold front moved in this morning. I read earlier today that just before 10 am at Hobby Airport (which is near our house) it was 82°....less than an hour later it was 61° and raining!!

After months of heat and humity....a cold front has rolled into Houston.
We had a BIG STORM last night and plenty of flood warnings in effect too....but this is the first time that I've gone outside in the morning to get into the car to go to work and thought...."Hey? It's cold."

High School Musical
A couple of weeks ago, Loo and I went to go see High School Musical @ the Fort Bend Theatre.
The Fort Bend Theatre is this cool old building with a tiny little stage and MAYBE 10 rows of seats. I bought tickets online....got directions from the Fort Bend Theatre's very own website, but still GOT LOST!! But, don't worry, we still made it to the show in plenty of time.
If you don't know about High School Musical then with the help of Wikipedia, I'll tell you about it.
The show at the Fort Bend Theatre was really pretty good....obviously they edited the script a little for the stage....but man, they did a really good job. There was one character who stole the show though....and he wasn't even in the original....they created a narrator type character, named Jack Scott. This kid would pop up on a make shift TV screen....he was reading the announcements for the school. It was a great way for them to cut some scenes out and move the story along.
Loo had a great time....at the end of the show, the cast invited all the kids up on stage to learn the dance moves from the last song....Loo got up there and was just in awe of everyone.
Even though Troy wasn't Zac Efron, it didn't matter to her....the story was still the same and that's all that mattered. She was up there singing and dancing with everyone. It was really cool of them to do that.
It was great daddy & me time for us both!

If you don't know about High School Musical then with the help of Wikipedia, I'll tell you about it.
With a plot described as a modern retelling of Romeo & Juliet, High School Musical is a story of two high school juniors from rival cliques: Troy Bolton (played by Zac Efron), captain of the basketball team, and Gabriella Montez (played by Vanessa Hudgens), a shy transfer student who excels in math and science. Together, they try out for the lead parts in their high school musical, and as a result, divide the school. Despite other students' attempts to thwart their dreams, Troy and Gabriella resist peer pressure and rivalry, inspiring others along the way not to "stick with the status quo."
This was Disney Channel's most successful movie at its time with 7.7 million viewers in its premiere broadcast in the US.
Loo was too young to get in on the first High School Musical from Disney....she didn't even know about it until a few months ago.
The Disney Channel started re-running High School Musical a couple times a week to get everyone excited about High School Musical 2.
Loo and I saw the "Sing Along" ( or the karaoke) version of High School Musical....it was the first time I had actually seen it too. I'd heard plenty about it on the radio though. Bean from Kevin & Bean fame on KROQ talked about it all the time.
I'll HONESTLY say....I liked it. It was a pretty cool little musical....and hey, it's Disney, it can't be that bad, right?
Anyway....Loo was really looking forward to seeing High School Musical 2....and secretly, so was I!! (Shhhh, don't tell anyone!) We recorded it for her on the DVR and then we watched it the next day.
She actually likes the second one more than the first one!! (For the record, I can't pick a favorite) She now has a High School Musical t-shirt!
OK, OK....so I'm sure you're thinking...."Why is he posting this stuff??" I'll tell ya....I just wanted to give you a little back story, that's all.

Houston Dynamo v Real Salt Lake
OK, so I'm a little behind on this blog post....almost a month late on this one.
My Uncle got us tickets to a Dynamo game and by us I mean, my uncle, my cousin and myself.
The game was great....lots of scoring....the Dynamo won 4-3
I didn't take my big camera for fear of being hassled at the gate, and I don't have a point and shoot camera. So prepare yourselves to be amazed by the horrible pictures that I took with my camera phone!! =)
TICKETS!! YEAH!
We had great seats!!
It was fan appreciation day, so we got all kinds of cool stuff....this T-shirt
These thunder clapper things....this kid in the picture was rubbing one on his sisters head, trying to create static so it would stick to his dad's back!! LOL
This is the first corner kick of the game....also the first DYNAMO GOAL!
I was being sneaky here....here's a shot of me & my uncle.
....and me and my cousin....WHAT? Where'd he go?? I think he knew I was taking the picture and he hid behind my GINORMOUS head!
Same kid from above....banging on his sister's head with the thunder stick thing, while the Dynamo girls perform during half time.
After their performance....the Dynamo girls (unexpectedly) tossed some shirts into the crowd....
This one bounced off some guys head 2 rows in front of us and landed next to me!
FINAL SCORE
Uncle....I know I thanked you then, but thanks again for getting tickets....anytime you want to go again....COUNT ME IN!!! I had a great time and I hope that you did too!!
