gym, fences, movies, etc
Jun. 19th, 2005 01:44 amToday was a pretty good day. I got up really early to meet Megan and Heidi at the gym at 9:15am. We did leg exercises today. Because my knees are so screwed up from my years of DDR, I have a lot of trouble with some of their leg exercises, so they taught me how to do some of the curls and squats on a machine instead of with their freestanding versions, which stresses my knees less.
After the gym, we went to Cyndy's for breakfast, which was pretty good. Megan and Heidi went off plant shopping at that point, and Josh said, "well, I'm gonna go watch baseball, you're welcome to come along," so I went and watched baseball for a while. Eventually they all went outside to work on the fence and garden. I was mostly useless but I did yank a few weeds out of the ground and help measure fence stuff. When Cory and Justin showed up, I ducked out and stopped off at home for a bit.
Then I headed down to Tacoma... hung out at Jeff and Wooko's place for a while talking about Transformers (and we even watched an episode of it, because Jeff is a dork), then we went over to the movie theater, where we met up with Chris and two of his friends, and we all saw Batman Begins, which was, god forbid, a Batman movie that didn't totally suck. Well, Katie Holmes is pretty retarded in it, but most of the movie was actually good. Honest.
Afterwards we went to Mory's for dinner, and played a starting game of SPANC, this new game Wooko picked up, which is pretty silly (but like many other recent Steve Jackson Games, has a reasonably popular artist (Phil Foglio, in this case) doing the cards, so if nothing else they're funny to look at). Ro and Brien joined us at Mory's, and afterwards everyone went back to the apartment to play board games, except by that point I realized it was midnight and I should drive home. So I did. And now I am here. And going to sleep soon.
By the way, I think the Mariners have somehow activated an Infinite Improbability Drive, as they managed to actually beat the never-lost-to-the-Mariners Pedro Martinez, with Ryan Franklin pitching for us, and with Sexson ejected from the game, so our infield was Hansen - Lopez - Morse - Bloomquist. WHAT THE HECK?! I don't get it, but... wow. Just, crazy. If the improbability drive stays on, maybe Ichiro will hit four home runs tomorrow and Mike Cameron will be miraculously healed and get to play.
Arr.
Yes, I skipped the Fremont Fair... I just didn't feel like dealing with a hundred thousand people. I might go tomorrow, I might not. We'll see.
