Oh what a day. I am feeling a little tired and it's only 10pm. I haven't been going to bed lately until 2 or 3a. You know just farting around and looking at job prospects.
I woke up at 11a today since I had the intention of having lunch with my friend Clinton. We went to Chuy's and it was muy delicioso! He had the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom enchiladas and I had flautas. We talked about the randomness that is our existence and the questionable choices we have made along the way. It was rather amusing conversation. I am sure the eaves-droppers around us were getting to know us on a more intiment level. During lunch I garnered a call from my father. I had to take him to run some errand so that cut my afternoon with Clinton short. I thought we were going to get the chance to recommence our tennis game from the prior day. Looks like Wimbledon will have to wait.
Taking my dad on errands really took it out of me. I got home and watched some of the tube with the parents and fell asleep. After a short siesta I had a fiesta! Joking, I decided to go on a 30 minute walk to count as my 30 minutes of continuous activity that I am striving for daily.
I took my iPod for tunage and set off on my endeavor. Half way through my walk the Spice Girls songs 2 Become 1 came on. I am not going to lie, I really like that song. I took a peak around me to see if anyone was in earshot. There was a sad little forest to my right, the hustle and bustle of traffic to my left, and blue skies before me so I decided to belt out the chorus. Just as the first words was leaving my mouth I tripped on a rock and literally ate dirt. My skinned knee started throbbing but all I could do was lay on the ground laughing. A nice biker came to help me up and started laughing. He apologized and said that my laugh was contagious. After some muffled giggling I thanked him and wished him well off on his way. I continued back on my walk. I am still smiling over how funny it must have been for someone to see me eat it.
The rest of my day was all bumsville from there on. I called my good friend Chris and played catch up. I watched some T.V. shows online that I missed this week. One of them being Eli Stone. I freaking love that show. If you haven't seen it go to ABC.Com and get caught up. You will be glad you did.

30-Love!
Thursday:
Since my close friend is out of town I anticipated spending the day in my jammies and maybe a walk outside for my daily dose of fresh air and exercise. However that was not the case.
As I was YouTube-ing Cinderella's Surprise Celebration and Fantasmic(they were bringing back memories from when I worked at Walt Disney World) I received a call from my friend Clinton. We used to live together and I have known Clinton from the time we were wee young'ns. He was back in town from Spring Break and he invited me over. We were vegging watching movies and I suggested that we go play tennis. He was all for it, so we went. The first match I started off strong but all that physical activity was taking its toll. I used to be able to go a few matched before I would tire, not anymore. I need to start being more physically active. He won the first match 7-5. Then we started our second match of the evening. I caught a second wind-ish and we tied 3-3 before it got too dark to make out the ball. So that match is officially on hold until, possibly tomorrow. Then we went back to vegging out and watching people eat it hard core on Spike TV. Look at me being all man-like.

Indian Sunrise
Today was another good day, filled with stuff to do. It included diaper duty, lasagna, kindergarten, Mario kart, and tikki masala!
The morning/early afternoon started off with me watching a terrible 2 yr old. She was ok for a while but once nap time came all heck broke loose! Nap time is non-negotiable with me. I don't care if you sleep or not but I need my break from you! hahaha jk. Well I went to put her in a crib and next thing I know I hear someone yelling help. I peeked in on her to make sure she was in no real danger and I just saw her standing in her crib. I had to stop laughing before I went in and told her to stop yelling and take her nap. After a bit of whining she fell asleep.
After diaper duty I went to meet some friends at the Spaghetti Warehouse for some yummy Italian food at half price. I still have my badge from when I worked at the Children's Museum and they give museum workers half off their food. I had the lasagna and it was good to catch up my some friends about love, life, and our pursuits of happiness.
I received an unexpected call from my friend Shea. She is a long term sub for a kinder class. She up at the school getting things ready for when they return from spring break so I decided to keep her company. I love my Sheaky. She keeps me smiling and can read me really well.
After visiting with Shea for a bit I went over to my close friend's apartment. We played Mario Kart on 64 before we went to have dinner at the Clay Pit. It is an Indian food place and I absolutely love their Tikki Masala. I was dominating Jackie at Mario Kart with Toadstool until my close friend joined the came and took him from me. I am still a little bitter or that. After a few round of that we went to go pick up our friend Alice and headed over to Clay Pit.
Clay Pit is delicious! I recommend it to everyone. It was a great place with great food until some loud cougars came in. I admit the my close friend can be loud but these cougars put her to shame. I don't understand how some people have to disregard for the people around them. I mean that they were so loud I couldn't hear the people at my table who were less than 6 inches away. I guess it was good that they were loud because they couldn't hear us talking about them. I love gossiping about stupid whores who are within earshot. Sorry, I am still a little bitter. I also had an Indian Sunrise. It was a gay drink that my close friend rejected so I pounced on it!

Ish
This blog is for Tuesday:
Talk about being a bum. I did not officially leave my house today until 11:30p. I was up late last nite catching up on some old shows. I am now caught up on October Road and Eli Stone. Thank goodness for networks putting their episodes online. So I did that until wee hours in the morning which means I didn't wake up until 1-ish. I know! Lazy.
Feeling a bit sloth-like I decided to go for a walk around the neighborhood. I made myself go for 30 minutes straight. It was rather refreshing. Gave me time to clear my mind and get a marvelous dose of fresh air. I passed a few individual walkers as well and they greeted me with a big smile each time. It is true that healthy people are happy people. I guess Elle Woods was right about the endorphines. If you have no clue what that reference was to, then rent Legally Blonde and educate yourself.
After my outstanding little walk I continued to veg out in front of the tube occasionally surfing the web from time to time. Then I got a text from my friend Dylan letting me know of a get together in honor of a mutual friend's birthday. That was the reason for me leaving the house at 11:30p.
So I arrive there and Matthew(birthday boy) shows me his brand spanking new tattoo. It was inspired by a children's book called Ish by Peter Reynolds. I had never read the book so Matthew proceeded to read it to me. I think that it is officially my new favorite book. If you know me and then read it, you'll know why. After Ish we drank, chatted, and listened to some tunes. It was a pretty stellar night. Then we made a run for root beer floats. Odd I know but Dylan was craving one.

Lorenzo Lamas!
Today was dedicated to the art of Trivia. I call it art because, well for lack of a better word. I feel my brain has grown with all the trivia that we played tonite.
I went over to a close friends for dinner tonite. She made a roast with carrots and potatoes for Wendy, Jackie, and I. I was truly impressed, it was delicious. We drank wine and talked about the randomness that is our lives. I was good times. Who would have thought the 4 people without lives could have so much fun.
We started the night off with Cranium. I am personally not a big fan of Cranium but I sucked it up and muscled through it. Wendy was my teammate and we did the best that we could. Those humdingers were real humdingers. It definitely was entertaining watching Wendy and Jackie trying to hum a tune that my close friend or I could not identify. Even though Wendy and I didn't win we were still winners in our own right. hahaha.
Next we moved over to Scene It where I completely dominated. There was definitely no stopping me. I rock at movie trivia. Too bad Warner Bros Trivia didn't end the same way. But from some reason a clip or Lorenzo Lamas kept coming up. I am afraid that I am going to have nightmares of Lorenzo Lamas. Well sweet dreams!

Is this maple syrup? No I think it's blueberry.
SO much happened today that I don't know where to start. I am glad that I am not starting spring break off with days in my pajamas. It feels nice to have to change out of them to go places. My first stop the hockey rink.
I met some friends to watch a hockey game. It was the Austin Ice Bats versus the Rio Grande Valley Killer Bees. I never realized how fierce a sport hockey is. It is no wonder many of the athletes in this forte are missing teeth. It seems someone is always slamming someone against the wall or crashing into someone. I guess thats why there is so much padding. It wasn't that exciting at first because we were losing but one we tied it up I was totally into it. The whole dynamic of the stadium changed as well. It was invigorating. Too bad we lost in overtime on a penalty shot. Talk about disappointing.
After the game we walked over to IHOP. It was Wendy, Jackie, my close friend and I. It was good times, not to mention there was pancakes! The only disappointing thing was the waitress handed me warm maple syrup which turned out to be warm blueberry syrup. I didn't care though I was all over that.
With the pancakes sitting happily in my tummy we decided to go back to my close friends apartment and play scrabble. This time we would play it in person rather than online. I had beat her tons of times but tonite I met my doom. She didn't win though so I will stick to the fact that I am better than her. Hey I am a Leo, we are a very proud sign. We then played some pop culture game in which Jackie and I dominated. We did pretty good, we read each other rather well for practically being strangers. I know Jackie through my close friend.
Leaving the close friend's apartment I was anticipating a call from my facebook wife Erin to pick her up from the airport. She was coming back from Vegas for a friend's wedding. She said it would be around 11:30 but she would call because she is on stand by. Well it is about 1am and I am still waiting for her to call. So while I waited I went to my friend Dylan's house. It has been a while since I have seen him and our friend Stephany was there with Matt Brown. I hung out there and we played catch up as well as a few games of beer pong. I lost both games but had fun losing. I miss those guys so much. They live less than 5 minutes away and I don't make it over there as much as I should.

Fly, Freddie Fly!
Today was not what I expected it. I had anticipated spending the day in my pajamas and having a lazy day. I guess that was not what the fates had in store for me.
I woke up to loud laughter. I had assumed it was just a dream but the laughs were all so familiar.
A few of my sisters were here having a brunch for my step-mom's birthday/anniversary. Lucky I woke up just in time for food! After that I ended up playing scrabble online with a close friend. It was hours of fun kicking her prat! Which prat means a person's buttocks. I used that word in scrabble.
I ended up chatting with my close friend so we decided to have a picnic and fly kites at Zilker Park. It was really a pleasant afternoon, even though I had to change out of my pajamas. We had pizza and wine. I also picked up some dessert from Whole Foods. After dinner and pleasant conversation we attempted to fly my kite. It is a Japanese goldfish kite that we named Freddie. No matter what we seemed to do the kite would just not fly. Oh well I guess we will have to again tomorrow.
After our "romantic" evening in the park we went to go see "Juno". I freaking love that movie! If you haven't seen it, I strongly recommend it.
