Today was the first rainy Bloomsday in the history of the race. I'm glad I wasn't running it today.
I hope my bike shows up soon.
All things considered, today was a very good day.
I found a couple bookshelves at Office Depot that I liked quite a bit so I bought them both. It was a pain hauling them up to my apartment though since my elevator doesn't seem to be functioning currently. It's a good thing Kristen's been pumping iron for a while.
We actually got a nice little dose of rain today. From what I hear they're expecting more of the same for Bloomsday tomorrow.
It took me forever to get my two bookshelves assembled. Hopefully I didn't annoy my neighbors too much with my hammering.
No bike yet, but today was definitely a most excellent day anyway!
I test drove Kristen's new means of transportation and watched a couple videos with her. Home Fries was basically lame I thought, while Gattaca was as good as I remembered it being.
My bike is in UPS shipping limbo. After calling Wheelsport just about everyday this week I decided to leave my name and number and let them call me when my bike arrives.
I've got a headache and I'm tired. Hopefully I will be able to get to sleep decently tonight. I've woken up well before my alarm most of this week despite not being able to fall asleep immediately when I go to bed.
I didn't see her race, but I hear that Nichole PR'd with a 12:17 in the 3200 today. Nice Job! It had to be the cd right?
Still no bike. Sigh
I got to sit by Father Spitzer, the Gonzaga University President, at lunch today. He's a pretty friendly, high energy kind of guy. He also has a definite geeky quality about him, which is both endearing and disconcerting when you consider who he is.
Breanna and Kellie came to visit Dale at lunchtime, so I got my weekly dose of Veggie Tales. Breanna is definitely a little jumping bean these days.
I'm off to a an early start today for some reason.
I was going to go to bed early last night, but then I started reading GEB last night and then I followed that by writing down assorted random thoughts about my day (which took quite a while given all the things I had on my mind).
I watched the first half of the State championship game we lost to Walla Walla. It wasn't particularly enlightening, but it did refresh my memory about a few impressions I had at the time.
I don't think we ran any offense other than straight motion and we weren't effective doing that at all against their defense. As things went from bad to worse in the first half our players started having more and more mental lapses and doing a lot of uncharacteristic things.
Today was supposed to be the big Chernobyl virus day, but nothing really materialized at work which was definitely good.
I called Wheelsport to see if my bike was here yet, but alas it sounds like tomorrow or Wednesday will be the magical day.
I just finished watching The Zero Effect this morning. It starred Ben Stiller and Bill Pullman and it's one of the best movies I've watched recently. I have no idea what made me pick it out at Hastings either. I think I was looking for less than mainstream movies and this fit the bill.
I think I will watch another movie now even though it's one am.
I totally planned on going to the track meet today, but I slept in a little bit and then got sidetracked putting together a music cd.
This afternoon I went out and visited my family and helped my sister and Nichole put together a cd for their friend's birthday. It turned out pretty well I think.
What a nice day weather wise. I wish I had my bike already. I'd be doing some serious riding around town. There are lots of places that I'd like to explore that I've never been to in all my years in Spokane.
Everybody cleared out of work early it seemed like. I left a little early myself.
College campuses always seem to come alive during the spring and GU is no exception. Students are out throwing frisbees and having fun soaking up the rays. It's nice to be a part of that every day.
