Memorial Day Holiday.

I woke up rather early somehow. No alarm necessary. Went out and cut the yard. Pretty happy with the results, but pretty unhappy with how hot it was by 11. Also did the dishes and took care of my baby plants. They won't be babies for much longer.

Spent the day with the family. Parents made some hamburgers and fresh corn. Good to catch up with my parents. They had the pleasure of spending time in Europe. My dad actually spent more time than he wanted to.

I crashed after lunch. Guess that lack of sleep caught up with me. The Wii they have hooked up to the TV now has Netflix on it, so we wasted time watching random things. I actually watched the first episode of season 4 of weeds, Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, and a Jeff Dunham comedy show.

Before I knew it, night was here. Time to get ready for work.

For breakfast, Ihop. Did things around the new apartment. Watched some tosh.0 with Kelc.

Drove home in the afternoon. *yawn*

Got home in time to participate in a cookout with the guys. I made a nice steak. Put a little olive oil on it, little bit of rub, and a nice dallop of mustard. Yeah that's right, mustard.

Went out to Sherlock's for a drink with the guys. Came home and had some friends over. Doesn't really feel like a Sunday.

Woke up and did things around the apartment. Hooked up the tv to a spare coax connection at the apartment, and boom, free basic cable. Nice.

Relaxed a bit, but still ran errands and took care of business. We watched some show about America's Next Ninja. People have to do some ridiculous things to qualify as a ninja. Nobody succeeded.

For lunch, chik-fil-a. For dinner, q'doba and a movie. Which movie? The Goonies. Can't believe I've made it this far in life without seeing it. Overall, the movie was ok. Had I watched it as a kid, the movie would be epic.

Moving day #1.

Woke up to find some Shipley do-nuts waiting to be eaten. Thanks Lindsey. A good portion of small stuff was already gone, but things still needed to be moved and consolidated, plus stuff taken off the walls (nails, screws, curtains). In addition to moving stuff, we were cleaning. Turtle was freaking out.

After a few carloads, we started getting low on things to pack. All that was left: huge heavy couch, washing machine, dryer, futon, bookcase, beds. Good thing Josh just got off work so he can help us out.

Ended up breaking up the bookcase and throwing that away. :-( Thing was held together by crappy plastic pieces. Kelc, if you want another bookcase, I'll get you something better.

I still don't understand how we got that couch down 2.5 flights of stairs... yeah I said 2.5 because we tossed it down the last half. What!

After all that movie, I was ready to pass out. Oh wait, no we had to rush moving the large heavy stuff so we could make it to Lindsey's b-day dinner on time... what? Not exactly polite planning that out, and pushing people who are volunteering to help you.

I forgot the name of the place we went to, but it was pretty good. I wasn't even hungry because I skipped right over lunch. I had some fried pickles and a bowl of baked potato soup. I stole some of Kelc's asparagus too.

Kelc and I went back to the new place. Put together the entertainment center. It sucked, but we got that feeling of accomplishment when it was all over.

Reoccurring theme: groggy.

I apologize in advance for these next few days. I got busy with things, and was actually unable to get on the internet, so there is a build-up of blog material. But I'll keep it short and sweet.

Went to work today. Did not go to the gym because I went yesterday (and I'll be moving things this weekend). Had a free lunch meeting with yummy pizza, thanks work. Ended up staying late at work trying to get things done because I know I'll forget about things over the weekend.

Relaxed at home for a bit. Kelc came over. We discussed some music for a little bit. We need to watch The Wall (the movie) at some point. Anybody interested? Could turn this into a viewing/discussion party.

Took both our cars to HEB for snacks, then Arlington. I started losing it near the end of the trip.

Groggy.

Got a pretty good amount of work done. Went to the gym and did some more random workouts. I'm starting to slack off with my gym attendance, and it is showing.

Went straight from work to the fields for our last kickball game of the season. Unfortunately we did not win this one. The team we played, I'll have to give credit, was pretty good and were sportsmen during the game. That alone is enough to make me happy that we tried and had fun. Both of our teams were pretty darn good at defense, but we let a couple plays slide and that gave them some runs. We never really got any breaks to get any runs in. So yeah, we got "shut out" even though we loaded the bases a handful of times. Final score, 4-0. Total number of runs we lost to for the season: i think 7. Thats pretty darn good.

Went to docs after for some dollar tacos and drink specials. The happy couple met up and got to hang out with the team. Fun was had.

Ahhhhsleep.

I fell behind with my posts a tad. I got carried away with things.

Work went smoothly, got a lot done. At leftover taco meat for lunch. Nice protein. Ended up staying late at work too, just to get stuff done.

After work, worked on a project again. Simple dinner.
