one too many pitchers

Drank a bit too much last night, out with Peter and Katelyn and Kaijsa and Elsa and Jim. Paid for it this morning. But it wasn't really the hurting head that kept me from going on a hike; it was the hurting foot. I don't know what I've done to it, but I think I better get it checked out. I predict a torn tendon or something like that. Slow burn.

In unrelated news, thai dinner tonight was fantastic. Spring rolls, cucumber salad, lemongrass shrimp soup, swimming rama, delicious beefy noodles (don't remember the name), and cocunut ice cream. A pretty satisfying way to end an otherwise lazy day.

In other unrelated news, I'm excited that plane tickets turned out to be so affordable. The Denver-to-West Virginia-to-Phoenix-back-to-Denver loop should be a lot of fun. Micale's Wilderness Outpost, here I come.

And pork spare ribs! Don't forget those. Also, delicious, delicious peanut sauce. Good job on that, R.

Right. Somehow the pork ribs keep slipping my memory of the deliciousness of it all.

It's sort of exciting (and relatively rare) for me to find three different frames that I like. Now the hard part is narrowing it down to one. After having asked a couple of the staff at the eye doctor's, my roommate, and Stephanie, an early leader is emerging. But I'm open to other feedback..... Option 1 Option 2 Option 3 Comments?

citizens arrest

What are the rules for citizens arrest? Specifically, if there's a girl talking on her cell phone, with half her car windows frosted over, who doesn't wait her turn at the four-way, would I get in trouble if I pulled her out of her car and slapped her with her phone a couple of times? I suppose that doesn't quite count as citizens arrest. Vigilante justice, maybe. Whack, whack! In less aggravating news, tomorrow is the last day of classes for the semester. Finally. It's been a long time comin' this fall. I really should start thinking about the trip to WV and AZ and start planning some Christmas gifty-gifts.

out of order

So I'm now going to post a bit about the DEMOLITION DERBY, which actually happened the weekend before my trip out here to CA. Backing up even further: in the few days leading up to the DEMOLITION DERBY, it rained pretty heavily, even producing a bit of flooding. This was bad news for the derby: the cars had a tough, tough time getting much traction in 10 inches of mud. The result: a not very demolishing derby. Slo-mo derby. Cars that were disqualified not because they were intentionally trying to stay out of the action but because they were axle-deep in mud and couldn't make a hit. Lame-oh: nowhere near the fun of DEMOLITION DERBY 2005. I had promised several people that DERBY '07 would be barrels of fun. Instead, we left early. Here's a pic that Kaijsa took of the contestants, though: Annalee said she didn't make it to the derby because of the big rains in the days leading up to the derby. The current of run-off was strong enough, as she was driving home, to rip of
