volleyball and other stuff
Yay, ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
samildanach is back from Scotland! Though I will probably just stay out of his way at work for a few days so he can catch up on the ninety billion things people need him to take care of.
I felt accomplished at work today because I gave up on trying to do something my way and just copied the way other people had done it. That's a lesson for me, really.
After work, rather than going to the Twins-Mariners game, I decided to head up to the gym, where I did arm weights for half an hour, and then I noticed these two guys kept wandering by with a volleyball. They seemed to be looking for more people, so I decided to go up and see if I could play. I hadn't eaten dinner so I knew it'd be a really bad idea to stay for very long, and it was already a little past 8pm by then, but I played in one game, and by the time I left we had 7 people there. They play rally scoring to 25, which is a little weird, but other than that it was kind of like CS volleyball, just with slightly older people. Also, I played pretty well, which felt good; even my sidearm serve was working really well. I left at 8:30 because 1) I was starving 2) my arms really hurt due to lifting weights and then playing 3) I was already exhausted from running around. Man, it'll be good cardio if I go back and play again, and I did promise I would... apparently they play Wednesday nights and Sunday afternoons, so I should be able to make it sometimes.
Came home. Listened to the Mariners fuck up the game, eventually losing in 14 innings. Read websites. Played some PP; they released the housing stuff today, which is going to totally turn the game into Animal Crossing, I swear. I needed to take a bunch of hemp oil down to Turtle so I could make varnish, though... eh, we'll see. Oh, and Hades has Jorvik now. How come every time I run a shop on an island, it gets taken over by Hades? I can tell you right now, I have no interest in governing Jorvik. Nor anything else in the game. I think maybe after the big buzz for furniture dies down, I might bother getting some stuff to decorate my ships or shops or something, but it's really just not that important to me.
