Wimbledon

So my weekend has been a little less eventful than I
had orginally expected. But can't be helped. Looking
back it seems I didn't even get out much. But that's
not true. I went for walks and was outside often. Its
bizarre that "doing something " has to be out with
people. I mean even today I haven't gotten out yet,
but have fixed up my bike (inflated wheels, greased
the gears and chains and did some stitching on my
biking shorts). That's doing something. And of course
I've done my daily drawings.
I did get invited out last night to a hookah bar. I
almost considered it since my other plans fell
through, but man I don't like hookah bars. I
refrained from going on that premise. I mean
regardless of the fact that I don't smoke, never have
smoked, anything....well that's not true. I did take
a few puffs from a cigar once......it was with my
friend Mark not too long before he was getting
married. I hated it. Could have been the cigar (I'm
fairly sure they were cheap ones), but I digress....I
don't smoke. I was never happier than when New York
passed the smoking ban in bars. Yes lots of people
were pissed, I wasn't one of them (although the Old
Pink never really enforced that law). Anyways, I
turned down going to the hookah bar.
Anyways, this weekend I've been listening to Wussy a
lot lately. I was supposed to go see them play out
here on Saturday, but like I said, plans fall
through. Robert Downy Jr. said it best in Tropic
Thunder; "Ain't nothing but a thang." But Wussy, they
are all sorts of fantastic. Haven't been able to stop
listening to them all weekend.
So early on Saturday night I decided I should watch a
movie. I checked out Hulu to see what I could find.
Their movie selection has been a little disappointing
as of late. But I saw the movie Wimbledon on there. I
had seen this movie years ago with Jenna. She fell
asleep and I stayed up watching it. I'm man enough to
admit I really liked this movie. For a romantic
comedy (I guess you could call it that) it was really
good. So yeah....I had a beer and watched Wimbledon
by myself. And enjoyed it.
On the other side of things I've discovered Sour
Patch Jelly Beans. Fantastic. Best thing to happen to
Jelly Beans since Starburst Jelly Beans years ago.
