my weekend

I forgot to post this earlier. Because I am lame. But also kinda funny? This is actually what happened this past weekend...


SATURDAY:

1. Went longboarding with my brother and his wife, her brother and his wife, and her sister and her sister's husband...but not altogether because there were lots of kids there and we had to take turns watching them, but still...fun!
2. GOT SUNBURNED longboarding with brother and extended family because am dumb ass who clearly did not put on enough sunscreen...and actually FORGOT to put sunscreen on shoulders and neck altogether! Yeah, can you say SORE?! ugh
3. Only caught 2 frickin' waves all morning ( was in the water for about 2 hours altogether). TWO!! LAME!! I was paddling around so much (because I am impatient ) always trying to get to a better break that by the time I actually got there, I was too damn tired to paddle hard enough to actually get on the better waves that I had been waiting for! You would think I would know better by now, but can I just sit for a while and wait? NO. Because I am impatient. And that's what happens. You only get 2 damn waves. AND those two waves were so weak that by the time I popped up, I had about a 3 second ride before it completely fizzled out. Done. In wrong spot. Again. Paddle back out. FAIL. Crap...
4. Got yelled at by brother for not paddling hard enough to catch smaller waves ("WTF happened, De?!") Or for just looking at actual decent size waves as they got closer, instead of getting into position ("WTF, De?! RIGHT.THERE! GOOO!!") then let them go past because was too damn tired to even attempt to paddle. Enjoyed floating on 9'0" longboard and watching pretty waves go by...
5. Laughed at brother when same damn thing happened to him. HA!
6. Made brother PUSH me into small waves since he is way stronger than me and I have no shame (water shallow, only chest high to him...also too tired to paddle out into deeper water where some really nice sets were coming in. Am lazy ass who clearly needs regular exercise.)
7. Got mad at tourists on 10 foot foam boards catching frickin' EVERYTHING (does not count - foam boards flat! Stable! Almost impossible to fall off! Can ride ripples on 10 foot foam boards, agh!)
8. Gave stink eye to said tourists on 10 foot fat foam boards catching everything. Then watched brother's brother-in-law try 10 foot foam board. Caught everything. bastard...
9. May or may not have flashed 2 male tourists while playing around in the shorebreak and swimsuit top decided to not stay in place. Slightly embarrassed. The ocean hates me. FAIL. AGAIN.
10. Went rollerblading with Tanya and her girls (sort of - was kind of hot, so mostly just cruised around the rink) then had blended coffee drink and ice cream cupcake from Coldstone. Decided Coldstone cupcakes are the best food in the world...and also environmentally friendly for reasons that make total sense in my head. Score! FINALLY!


SUNDAY:

1. Slept till 8 am
2. Ate at breakfast buffet with friend. LOUD in the restaurant with all the mother's day talk going on, but food was good and live acoustic music soothing...and cute guitarist smiled when he caught me staring at him playing pretty song. Score again!
3. Decided to take nap since combination of sunburn, too much food, and lack of sleep the night before due to all the sugar in the environmentally friendly cupcake and blended coffee drink kept me pretty much wide awake till almost 1:30 a.m. Internal clock f*cked.
4. Watched History Channel playing shows on conspiracy theories...and Monster Quest. Am fascinated by conspiracy theories and monster stories. 4 hours pass. No nap. FAIL.
5. Checked all online accounts. Nothing bounced or got sent back. Is good day. Yea!
6. Facebooked and Myspaced for absolutely no reason except am online addict.
7. Bought Coke from McDs (needed caffeine). Cost of soda: $1.89. Time it took to drive to get soda (round trip): approx. 10 mins. Amount of soda actually drank: about 1/3 of medium size - rest of it sat in the cup while the ice melted, making it all flat and watery tasting, while I checked all online accounts and facebooked and myspaced. Lose money. Fail again.
8. Managed to respond to 2 Kentucky cousins about plans for coming home next month. Should all work out. Love when that happens. Have hope. Yea!
9. May have pulled muscle trying to rub in Solarcaine gel onto sore, sunburned area on back. Should have asked for help when brother came over to pick up mail, only brother is even MORE sunburned.
Score: TIED
10. Summary: managed to not do any chores, got sunburned, got moderate exercise, had too much caffeine, re-read half a DH novel (again), and am still watching The History Channel. And facebook-ing.
Had a great weekend. Woohoo! ;-)
