HOT DOGS

I participated in a HOT DOG eating contest today, it was miiiighty tasty... okay no it wasn't. I was so sick of tired after number 4. This is my second hot dog eating contest, the first one i tied for first! (out of... 2 people) and this one.... i tied for last (out of 4) haha it was real bad. The first one i ate 10 hot dogs..and i was only able to scarf down 6 hot dogs this time. heres a picture of the food. the winner ate 9 hot dogs.

Easter Sunday

S0 lately my work has been really slow, and I mean REALLY slow... but today, since it was Easter Sunday, I was able to get one! Today my job was 'swing' ...which really is pretty easy. I stand in the yellow area...waiting for trucks to come in.. while talkin to my friend

Here is a truck.. pullin up waiting for a container to be on its back.

You can see in the next crane over that its on the side of the chassis because the swingmen (me) has to take off the cones... haha its pretty easy

These are the cones that you take off.. probly like 12 pounds

Then they put the container on top of the chassis, and the UTR driver goes through the scanning thing to make sure its not like a bomb or anything haha, and yep...thats it.. 

Good Eatin

MMMMMM I LOVE ME SOME BBQ. 

TWIC card

Today I had to get my TWIC card, which stands for... Transportation Worker Identification Card. Basically its a government issued ID for more security. Wierd thing about it...is that the TWIC has an ID on it..so it knows where i am! I had to get it at the Queen Mary, so i decided to take a picture of it.

Korean.....taco's?

Today in celebration of M's promotion, he made C and I some korean taco's. It was mighty tasty, there was the korean beef with some salsa that had tomatoes mangos and cilantro. very good.

Tomorrow C and I go to solvang! shoudl be fun =)

Start of a new thing

Today = more good food. Since today is friday, C and me were going to go eat some sushi, but then she thought, where can we get more BANG for our BUCK.. so instead we got some fish taco's at Rubios which were mmm delicious. 

here is C drinking soda.

One thing, there seems to be an ongoing thing... Whenever i go to a food place and they ask for my name... I have to first say it.. then i immediately spell it to give the worker an easier time with my name, since its different. Anyway.. this is what came out of the guy when i gave him my real name.

I like churro's.

Also if you would look at www.pictoism.blogspot.com you will also know that MANS came out of el pollo loco. they really are CRAZY

Good Day = Good Food

Today I had to get my TWIC card for longshore. Its been a while since i worked over there. siigh  After I had to drive by LB on my way to C's house. 

As you can see. All the cranes are up at LB140..which means no ships are docked... which means no work for me! its okay, only could get better!

The best part of the day came when C and myself were going to my friends apt. We went by jack inthe crack cuz I heard about these mini sirloin sliders! 

BOMB!!!!

man those things were delicious. I hope they keep them. Thats gonna be my new usual over there..even though I dont go there a lot.
