Things To Do In San Diego: August 3, 2011

I don't know about you, but I feel great today. I'm gonna say that here, because apparently it's not okay to say you're having a good day out loud. When someone says, "How's it going?" you're only supposed to ever be "fine" or "alright" and when they ask how you've been, you're only supposed to be "busy", "tired", or "same as always". Try it. Say a different answer and see how fast the person who asked the question loses interest or before they tell you about their miserable life. Life is good. It's okay to be happy. I know I'll be even more so when I dip my feet in that beautiful Handlery Hotel pool in two hours. Come down and hang with me! It's free and they have cheap beer.
