For those not aware, I flew down to Ontario, met my twin brother at the airport (he had flown in from Tacoma) took a taxi to get the <a href=\"http:\/\/uhaul.com\">U-Haul<\/a> truck, and found out upon arriving that they had given away our truck.  We ended up having to take Uber from Ontario to Pomona, pick up the truck there, head to my in-laws&#8217; house in Claremont, pack up my stuff, and drive the truck back up to San Jose.  The <a href=\"http:\/\/uhaul.com\">U-Haul<\/a> sitch stunk but it was what it was and they gave us a $50 credit which was way more than we needed for the Uber ride.  I&#8217;m glad I got the extra time with Sean (my brother) as we don&#8217;t see each over very often and it was some good one-on-one time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In the kitchen&#8230;<\/strong> Dad found me some *interesting* <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tofurky.com\/\">Tofurkey<\/a> sausage so I had that for dinner and it was pretty good.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I am wearing&#8230;<\/strong> my <a href=\"http:\/\/blessedwithfullhands.blogspot.com\/2014\/07\/3rd-annual-run-for-little-flowers-5k.html\">Run for the Little Flowers<\/a> shirt and black capri sweats.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I am going&#8230;<\/strong> to try and get to bed early tonight.
