Day 2

It was a long day today, but I shouldn’t complain. Got to golf and eat good. 

I also had time to write my baby today. TTQD!! This is probably the prettiest course I’ve been to with ocean views. I wish you could be here to check it out. They framed my dollar tips 😂. Anywho, gonna finish up your letter. ATEN!!

Day 4/1

Today was a different day, yet it was somewhat the same. It’s day 4 for Yellowstone:

It’s day 1 for Santa Barbara:

I’m hope both our trips end on a high note. Thanks for planning the trip and paying for it. I know it’s “your” trip, but I enjoyed it. I pray for everyone tonight. I wuv you Em. TTQD!!! We have to get up at 430am and it’s 11:11am. 🤦‍♂️

Day 3

😳 🤯😬🙄🤗

Today wasn’t as majestic as yesterday, but the beauty of Yellowstone is massive. We kinda saw a bear today. Tons of bison. It was also really nice to be able to pee so freely and often. Except that one time where we didn’t use a restroom and someone made it all awkward 😭.

I know there will be other reasons to remember today (I’m hiding upstairs and have the fan and ac on so I can’t hear anything. Wish I had grabbed my water bottle and gummies, but I’ll survive).

This is one of the reasons I try to limit emotions and I also don’t like anyone to have blackmail power over me so I’m okay cutting people and things out to prevent that, but I understand it’s different for you and I’m sorry. Let’s stop talking about that. 

I love you very much. I hope that will be enough. I unfortunately can change other people. I can only control me. TTQD.

Day 2

Another day, another dollar they say. 


Mr. Crab wanted to say hi. He said thanks for taking him along. He’s glad you had a great day. Majestic is an often used word to describe Yellowstone, but it’s a very accurate one. It’s pretty hard to take a bad picture. And guess what? We get to do it all again tomorrow 😂. TTQD bruh!!!

Day 1

Today was just a day of relaxing. It’s nice to see you have fun with your family. I appreciate you worrying about me, but I want to make sure you enjoy yourself. I’ll be okay. I see you all the time 😂


“It’s I, no it’s M”. Good luck with that. It looks like we’re sleeping with Lucas tonight. 😜 Love you anyway. TLG!!!

And Away We Go

You took the picture of Mr. Crab on your phone so I had to take my own picture. It’s the mountains of Salt Lake City. Our last stop before Montana.

I forgot that there are a lot of Samoans in Utah because a lot of them are Mormon (the airport staff on the ground were Samoans, they’re a big and strong people). Anyhow. I often joke that I’d rather go to work than hike, but I’m looking forward to not working this week. Hope both legs of my trip are great for me and for my so mot (#1). Sorry I couldn’t get your internet working. Wonder if it’s because I also have Delta app. Anyhow. TTQD!!!

‘Twas The Night Before Yellowstone...

Don’t know if I’ll get another milk tea before Yellowstone, but I’ve been assured there’s milk tea in Santa Barbara (college city so maybe it’ll be good). It’s funny that I had so much time, but I like to pack last minute. In this case I can sort of blame the weather...

I’ll try my best to not start any faiths (phone autocorrected fights) with you on our trip. Fortunately, I’ll only be there until Thursday so less days to faith (LoL). Anyhow, look forward to time off work and relaxation. I hope you have a great time with your family. TTQD!!

It’s The Final Countdown...

Do da do do, do da doot doo...did I use this title before? Anyhow, that’s what I feels like today. Counting down to wedding and trip and golf.


Man, Karen really pissed me off. Anyhow. Times passing by. Don’t forget to enjoy the journey, not just the destination. TTQD!!

To Do Lists

Got lots done today. It was a very busy day, but productive. If only all days could be like this...

I hope we a lot done tomorrow too, but as long as we keep moving forward it should be okay. Thanks for dinner 😂 TLG!!

Isn’t It Ironic

Last night I had prepared a post about understanding/communication, but I deleted it and posted about date nite. And then we got into a discussion about the former...Currently, I’m not hungry, but Google says I should still eat because regular meals are essential to body function.

I had to take a break. Ate, showered, brushed, stop by home, Porrines, had to detour, went to Walmart, bought lottery. Busy busy. Anyhow I was thinking I wanted to try to empty fridge/freezer before wedding. That’s all for today. Waiting for you at work. Smell you later. TTQD! #OT. Also Lorraine suggested 524 and Ernestos for Mexican food.

D-A-T-E Nite

Probably not an official date nite, but we did have a meal out. 


I think it’s one of the few times eating out that wasn’t Asian food. Anyhow, it’s a nice sense of normalcy, although we’ve never been to Chevy’s together so it’s not really normal 😂 


I’m sorry it wasn’t as good as the place in Reno, but I hope you still enjoyed it. There is a lot of other places we can try. TLG!!

Breathe (and Blow)

😂 I’m sitting on the 7th hole at Wild Hawk. We started on the back 9, so technically only 3 🕳 left to play. We are waiting for these slow Asians in front of us. I’m playing horrible. TJ has 2 🐥. So it’s actually a really bad day. (Tee break) And I didn’t eat yet except a granola bar, some jerky, and fruit snacks. I just pulled another tee shot to left of this hole pictured:

I just topped my next tee shot which should not happen. Maybe I’m just tired. But my point is sometimes you just got to breathe and take a break before doing or saying anything. Emotions are good sometimes, but not good all the time. In the heat of the moment it’s like the song (Love The Way You Lie). Hopefully I never say things that I don’t mean. Thuong you bruh.

And So It Is...

Just like they said it would be. Life goes easy on me. Most of the time...another week has gone by. Another Sunday that comes before another Monday. Sometimes it feels like I’m just a dog chasing my tale. Although the dog probably has more fun 😅.


They say with great power comes great responsibility. They’re not wrong. They also say the best things in life are free, but there are a lot of pretty good things that are not. So I’ll end my quoting of life today with the most important quote, “Anh thuong Em nhat.”

Saturday, April 17, 2021

L-O-V-E

I always believe that drugs and alcohol are magnifiers. They can’t make you happy if you weren’t a happy person already. Anyhow, you already know, but to remind you, I thuong Em even when I’m under the influence.


This is one of 🕳 where my ball hit the flag and bounced out on the 2nd round. Hope you had a good time at church tomorrow. Should I go online on my own tomorrow? Truc sach fallow tome do. Anh thuong Em Nhat. ❤️

TGIF

It’s finally Friday. That means tomorrow I get to golf. Took last Saturday off so I guess it feels more exciting this week than normal.

As I was showering I thought about our future. I know life isn’t always going to be smooth. I also know that worrying about the past and future isn’t always helpful because the present is the only guarantee. I just look forward to a time when we can worry less and enjoy more (post covid and post wedding). But I’ll try to focus and enjoy the present as well. ATEN!!

It’s Almost Friday...

Life has a way of circling/cycling back. Sometimes you keep moving, but you end up where you started. There’s some times a reason for that and there’s some times not. It’s really what you make out it.

Any problem in life can be a big one if you make it one. There’s a boba shortage, but I think I’ll make the switch to crystal boba...Things will always find a way to work themselves out. It may not be ideal, but the alternative usually is worse. Like if I don’t like my job, there’s always a door, but I will have to look for a new job...it’s not most optimistic way to look at life, but it’s a pretty practical one. TLG!!

A Day Off

It still feels like a day off. But for more reasons today. I got some relaxing in but it also felt like Thursday. Weird how that is. Anyhow, I didn’t know what to write about today, but as I was taking out the soul I was reminded of something Mario told me (ironic):

There’s gonna be a lot that we’re gonna argue and debate about during our relationship. Let us not let money be one of them. I know it’s easy to say, but hard to do, but let us try. I love you more than I love money. Just so you know. In case you were confused. ATEN (not ATTN)!!

It’s Not Wednesday!

It felt like Wednesday, but it’s not. Sad. But also good because I don’t need time to go any faster. Soooo much to do and so little time...

It’s been a few years and so much has changed. Hopefully the path forward will continue to be fruitful. Thanks for riding along. TLG!!

And So It Continues...

It’s been 2 days since LA, but I feel like I’m still getting things done, eating good food, and tired 😂.

Since you didn’t get this picture, here’s Baby E in Hawaii. She got lei’d. I hope you continue to have fun, get things done and eat good too. I wuv you very nhieu nhat. TTQD!!

Superb Sunday

It’s kinda sad that the mini-yahcation is over, but Sunday was also superb so it’s a good way to swing into the work week.

I know you already saw this photo, but it’s a great photo. Thanks for the good food and company today. We even got things done today. It’s like we never left LA, except no Baby E. Sowwy. Anyhow, you’re the most important baby to me. ATEN!!

Golfless Saturday

It’s not often that there’s a Saturday without golf for me, but when Em wants Saturday, she usually gets Saturday...

So it’s our last few hours in SoCal, but it’s been a very efficient and effective trip (not words normally associated with vacations). Had fun, ate good, got goals accomplished. Win-Uyen-Nguyen situation. Thanks for a good time. TTQD!

Bonus picture, never mind won’t take picture of you sleeping in Nha’s work parking lot 😂!

Good Friday (that Jesus didn’t have to die for)

Today was a great day. Need to go to sleep before anything goes wrong. I hope you had a good time. 

Thanks for eating the churro with me. I got a lot done this today so I can’t complain. Em had fun that she’s singing in bathroom so I hope that’s good. Hope you ngu ngon tonight. ATEN!!!

Mini Yah-cation

It’s not much, but it’s another mini vacation. EC gets to enjoy E. I get to transfer my gun and close my loan. So it’s all and all cool.


Even Mr. Crab is ready and protected. I hope we have a good time. 🤞. Keeping this post short and sweet. Just like Em. TTQD!!!

Vaccine Day!

Good news. I’m fully vaccinated. Yah. Bad news. My arm is sore and I am currently feeling a little light headed. I woke up from a nap. Could be coincidence, but I’m not a napper usually.

It happens sometimes, but my food picture didn’t save. All good. Small problem. I hope this is the worst of my symptoms because we’re traveling tomorrow. 🙏🏽 I’m excited cause you’re excited. Must be how parents feel. See we don't need kids.We’re each other’s kids. 😂 I thuong you, even though you didn’t thuong me this morning. No big chuyen. TTQD!!!

4.6.2.1...Final Countdown...

The final countdown (music playing) was actually a few days ago, but I sent out some invites today so it felt like the final count down for me 😜...

It’s hard to keep track if I reuse any photos. Bonus points if you find one. Anyhow, it’s only 9 weeks away. It’s becoming less stressful as well. Hope you’re feeling good about it too. TTQD bruh!!!

A New Day ✝️

It’s a new dawn, a new day, and I’m feeling good. Thanks for being there through all the ups and downs Em. Hopefully there will be less of that in the future. I remember John asked me once if I wanted a love full of passion that was short or a lifetime of contentment. I told him contentment.


As much as I think our life together has been content, it’s probably more like the passion. I just hope it’s not fleeting. Anyhow I was just thinking how much easier and happier my life is when I “stay in my own lane”. I’m gonna work on that. Thuong you bruh. TLG!

Jesus Is Back MFs!!!

It’s Easter. It’s been a good day. Didn’t want to jinx it, but it’s almost over and it’s been yah for the most part. Thanks Jesus.

Here’s my future. It looks pretty good. Welcome back Jesus. I’m glad you’re okay. It’s been a good 40 days for the most part, but I’m definitely ecstatic you’re back. Thanks for keeping an eye out for us. And thanks for continuing to keep an eye out for us. ATEN!

Saturday, April 3, 2021

Sad Saturday

No birdies today. Even with and eagle putt. They almost ran out of boba. But at the end of the day, there’s Em. I hope I can also be a positive force in your life too. 

At what point do you cover up her boobs? Smh. Anyhow, Jesus is coming back tomorrow. I hope you’re excited. Also hope you stop 🥱 when we pray 😂. TTQD bruh.

Pour A Little Out For JC

Jesus died for our sins today. Make sure to take a moment to remember that. Life isn’t always gonna give you a second chance to do the right thing so it’s always best to try to do the right thing the first time.

I’m gonna be marrying you in a few weeks. I’ll make sure to try to get it right the first time. Thanks be to God. See you Sunday Jesus. ATEN!

Good Friday Eve For Realsies

Today is the day before Good Friday. It’s the day before Jesus sacrificed himself for us because we know not what are doing. I was gonna post the picture of Jesus falling off the wall, but you already saw it. I try to only post pictures you don’t have so it’s like a double bonus for you. Picture and post. PP.

Vince sent me this picture today. “Stud” he says. Anyhow, I’ve always seen the season of Lent as time to better myself. Self reflection and sacrifice. SS. It wasn’t perfect, but it never really is. I think it was still good though. Something I hope to implement going forward is the 5 second rule. It only takes 5 seconds to decide to action. If you wait longer than that, your mind usually finds excuses for you to not do anything. So I’m gonna try to break bad habits by counting to 5. Wish me luck. TTQD!

The Last…

I think I may have written this title before, but today is the last blog post I will write as your boyfriend. But the truth is that this is ...
