So, it's been a year and half since my last trip out here. Not much has changed. I'm out visiting my "favorite" client. I'm not entirely looking forward to the trip, but it's something to do. We drove down to Sanibel for Thanksgiving, and I flew out to Orange County tonight. The flight was uneventful - the highlight was the leg from Atlanta to Orange County. The equipment was a 757 that was updated to have the new TV system that featured a bunch of movies, games, and satellite TV. I watched "Superman Returns" all in all, a good flick. The fellow who plays Superman must've studied Chris Reeve, because he had the mannerisms down pat, right down to the "Goodnight, Lois". Highlights: story line, cinematography. Low points: Kevin Spacey as Lex Luthor didn't get enough space in the movie to flex the character. I also tried to watch "Talledaga Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby". I had to turn it off about 20 minutes in - it was crap.

So now I'm in the hotel, watching "Clerks II". It's not nearly as clever as the first. In fact, I'm writing this while watching the movie.

Oh, I should mention that my latest hobby has been genealogy. I'm busily tracing roots for my family and Steph's family. It's kinda fun.
