San Los Obispo CA through Santa Barbra CA

Tyler: Well, here are, rain once again in sunny California. Our host in Santa Barbara wasn't done with work/school until around 9 o'clock so we decided to hit up the local Borders until both the weather let up and we would not have to spend 5 hours in the rain in Santa Barbara. So instead of being productive little bloggers intent on making you all aware of what we've been up to and how much rain we're enjoying, we decided to play video games. I manned the Dragon Age, Pinto took care of the Fallout 2 and Nick found himself neck deep in Warcraft 2. How many times did I say rain so far? Not enough because there was a lot of it. I really can't get over how much rain we've seen in the last couple of days, it's hard to imagine this much rain. Oh the humanity! When will the rain/the blog discussion of rain cease? I'm not sure but I better say it once more for good measure, rain.

Brian: When we finally tired of the Borders in San Luis Obispo we punched in the address of the Borders in Santa Barbara and hit the road.

Nick: Are they sponsoring us yet?

Brian: Since nothing particularly notable happened during the day I'll like to take this time to talk about how we spend a lot of our driving time. Since giving up on the atrocity known as Pride Prejudice and Zombies, we've grown fond of a podcast called Uhh Yeah Dude, which is LA based. It's a couple guys (one of them is the actor John Larroquette's son) shooting the breeze and talking about crazy current events from all over America. It's a bit crass and somehow a bit dry at the same time but also an endless source of hilarity. One of our favorite (least favorite?) segments is when they read filthy personal ads posted on Craigslist. A final warning: the podcast is not for the faint of heart. It is very raw, but that's part of what makes it hilarious.

Nick: I'm OK with PP and Z. Uhh Yeah Dude is pretty funny though, I'll grant you that. When we got the word from our Santa Barbara host Ingrid, we boogied over to her apartment and met up with her two roomates, Don and Isaac.

Tyler: A night of nerdy discussions about video games, T.V. shows and anything else we could think about ensued. Only a few beers bought from the local Vons. Vons was a little weird. It looked like a Safeway, it smelt like a Safeway and was even ordered like Safeway but it wasn't. Well, our adventures aside, this will be my last blog post. I leave tomorrow on a jet plane for Montana and my final semester of undergraduate work. Wish me luck everybody. The other downside of this beside my witty and original contributions to the blog (none of which mention rain) it also means that the quality of photos will decline as my nice camera will come with me to Montana. It's been a ton of fun and great break between semesters. Good luck on the rest of your trip Nick and Brian, and so long to everyone that has been reading this blog. Tyler out for the trip, Brian and Nick out for the day.
