After church today, my roommate convinced me to head to the firing range with him. We ended up renting a Glock 34 (9mm) and firing off about 75 rounds each. The timing was a bit strange, but it was actually quite fun.
I played some basketball this afternoon and also went grocery shopping. It’s been a nice day off. I’m gonna have to figure out another day for rest though because my Sundays have been quite event-filled lately.
A guy I know from church had his eHarmony woman-of-interest there this morning. His good fortune happened to be part of my inspiration for taking a foray into the world of interweb dating. I haven’t had quite the same luck yet, but at least I’m meeting new people and being given opportunities I wouldn’t otherwise have. How many other people do you know that can say they’ve had a beef tongue taco or backed their car into a light pole as part of a dating experience?
For the first time since beginning my new schedule in March, I’m off for two days in a row. It’s amazing how easy it is to come down “sick” with a bit of wishful thinking. This is only the second time in my life I’ve ever done this. The first time was in high school and I felt guilty for weeks. I’ll let you know how it goes this time.
All I’ve got to say is sanity sometimes requires a bit of a break.
Update: Me at the Juanita Beach Pier: Yes, that is Seattle in the background, how very observant of you.
Juanita: A nice looking town, technically part of my town
I arrived at the coffee shop a few minutes late. Sitting outside, I saw a redhead who looked like the woman I expected to meet, but to be safe I pretended not to notice and walked by her and into the coffee shop. Glancing around quickly, I saw no other likely persons who met the description I looked for.
I walked back out the door and introduced myself.
“Hi, I’m Me, are you The One I’m Waiting For?”
“Yes, I am, how are you?”
“I’m good, I’m good. Sorry, I’m a bit frazzled, I just backed my car into a light pole.”
On Thursday night, I traveled to downtown Kirkland. In this quirky little town, all the coffee shops close by 8pm on weekdays. So much for a visit to the coffee shop!
Instead, we went for Mexican. I ate a beef tongue taco, she had chicken.
How many of you can say you had a beef tongue taco for dinner on a date?
