Check out what happened this morning on our way to work:
All lanes of the westbound 60 freeway, near the interchange with the 57 freeway, were reopened after being shut for nearly four hours while a Caltrans crew cleaned up animal fat that spilled from a big rig.
And it didn’t help that this was Jeannie’s 1st [...]

The summer is finally over as Jeannie started working yesterday, and what an unluckly last 2 weeks of summer it was (which was why I didn’t really feel like blogging for a while).  Now that most of the ordeal is over (hopefully), I guess I’ll do a summery recap:

We are back from our 3.5 day trip to San Diego. Well, it was more of a trip for Lorelai and we were her personal servants.
Our 1st stop was to the beach, which Lorelai just simply loves (we were really surprised because we thought she would be scared by the waves, but it turned [...]

There was a somewhat bigger than average earthquake (Magnitude 5.4) centered at Chino Hills (few miles west of us) that hit us yesterday (for more scientific information, check here).  It certainly was a big jolt, as I felt it at work and Jeannie felt it on the road in the car.  But we are glad [...]

Just found this little gem regarding the chances of me going back to Taiwan…
Taiwan law provides for compulsory military service. Men between the ages of 18 and 36 who were born in Taiwan or who have ever held a Taiwan passport should be aware that they may be subject to compulsory military service in [...]

Not too long ago we discovered that we had a new neighbor in our backyard, which we later named Butt.  And for the most of last week, we tried to check on her but couldn’t find her - we were kinda worried/disappointed that something might have happened to her.  Then yesterday, we saw 2 little [...]
