The Real Jeff Orr,moves to a new place

Status update!

It's that time of the year again. I'm moving! So I've kept my streak of moving to a new place once a year alive. This year I had to move because my landlord decided that he wants to make some major renovations to the house, so he didn't offer to renew my lease. My new place is this huge 7 bedroom house on Hobart between 1st and 2nd ave. I'll post some pictures of my room soon because it's pretty much the most awesome room I've ever lived in. It's about 25' by 15', it's split level (you walk in on a smaller landing then walk down three stairs to the other part of the room) and it has it's own sink and shower...in the room! The house itself has a nice porch, huge bakyard with a treehouse, 2 kitchens, and around three living-roomish type rooms.

Now that I've got such a big room I'm in need of some stuff to fill up the space. I'm saving up some money for a trip to Ikea in the coming months...there's a bookcase named Billy that I'd like to take home. Also, one of these would really make the room complete.

In non-moving-related news, I'm coming down to Camarillo for a few days. I'll be flying down Friday (the 20th) morning. Then my aunt's having some big party Saturday with a steel drum band and margarita bar and all kinds of fun shit...hit me up if you want an invite to this very exclusive event. I'm flying back on Monday so I won't really have much time to hang out.

Weezer just came out with a new album and dispite a couple noteable songs it's more or less a major dissa...well...I guess it's not technically a dissapointment when you weren't really expecting much.

The Real Jeff Orr, goes on vacation, step 3: Tokyo

Quick post full of pictures

Day 1

On the train ride into Tokyo I was almost destroyed by a Kamehameha blast

This is the view from Mikey's room...basically his back yard is full of dead Buddhists

Five minutes after getting into Tokyo Pat partakes in the local culture

Japanese arcades are pretty wicked...mostly because you can drink and smoke in them.

Towards the end of the night we had a few beers with this cat...what happened next is a bit hazy though

Trying to follow my Mom's advice to not look retarded in every picture

Day 2:

On our way to Japanese Denny's

This is the cities main municipal building...its pretty much one of the tallest buildings left in Tokyo after they passed an ordinance against them in 1985. They were just attracting way too many monsters

This guy had a PA system on top of his car so he's pretty much like the Blues Brothers...only instead of inviting people to a kickass concert he's spouting a bunch of hateful anti-american nationalist stuff. Pat got a picture with him.

SMILE!

We found this pretty cool little cafe called the Cafe Cotton Club...its coolness to emptiness ratio was off the charts

We ended the day at the Horse Shoe Cantina where I was forced to abandon my horse
