Yes, so the expresso and coffee drink I had are just kicking in now (don't know why now and not earlier, but I'm not complaining!). So...let's see...today was an ok day. Work was the usual, though it wasn't great. It was good that I didn't catch any hell today about project results. Enough on work. Went running, but wasn't able to go as far as I wanted to because of time constraints. I'm thinking of doing 5 miles tomorrow morning, though, and that should make up for it. Chris picked me up at about 6:15 and then we made more pickups and went to go see the "Bad News Bears"--good old fashioned little league comedy. The story of personal redemption was well intertwined, if a little quick. Two and a half stars of five overall, but three of five for a comedy. Then, we went to a bookstore, where Nick and I were "ditched" briefly so that the winner of a contest could be decided (congratulations are in order for Missy). Nick then got chatted up by some old fellow, which was not cool for him, plus the guy didn't seem to be making any sense. That was pretty creepy...Once that situation was over, we browsed the shelves, and I was looking for the "Book of Stress" because it is absolutely hilarious! But it wasn't there. And I also had some form of coffee drink on top of a shot of expresso (mmm...). Off to Chris's house it was to play poker, and I didn't do so well there, but that's the luck of the draw, and fun was had, regardless. I was feeling a slightly nauseous for part of the night, and so I was aloof and a bit uptight, but thankfully that went away, and I loosened up. Unfortunately that was more towards the end of the night. I was extremely glad to be in the company of friends, regardless. In other news, ever since starting to run regularly, I've lost 10 pounds or so, and I am getting back to my normal pace (albeit slowly). I have to thank my running partner, Chris, for if I didn't have to make the commitment to go running with him every day, I'm not sure if I would run in this kind of heat. Terrible news--bombers have hit Egypt, 30 dead, 100+ wounded. This makes me sick. They deliberately go after defenseless civilians--tourists, at that! Fucking disgusting. Anyways, now I'm too tired to really continue. I understand that I probably posted alot of nonsense, so I hope you are good at decoding it. Donut: "Humph! Elbow grease! They must think I'm some kind of idiot. I'll set them straight when I tell Sarge, after I go to the store to buy that headlight fluid. Sweet! They sell tanks!" (<$BlogItemCommentCount$>) comments
