Weekend and such
Last night, we bowled our first league games. This is the night when your average and handicap are first determined, so NATURALLY, I bowl three of the better games that I have bowled in the past several years. Nice.Sunday LHPJ and I went canoeing - good times. Too tired now to go into detail - it's barely after 7:00 am.
It is hot as #!*@ right now. Well, not hot so much as humid, but the overall feeling is about the same. Sadie is on the couch giving me a pathetic look that says - "SHAVE ME!".
I'm posting this now just to kill time. It's rare that I have an extra ten minutes in the morning, but I set my alarm ten minutes earlier since I have been running late recently and catching the later of two buses that I will take in the mornings. This morning, I had to be to work by 8:00, so I have to catch the earlier bus. So now I sit here.
SO FREAKIN' TIRED!!!!
Now Sadie is asleep and mocking me.
Ok, bus arrives in 7 minutes. I should get going.

Oslo harbor
This photo was taken around 5:00 pm sometime during the second week of May in Oslo, Norway. We ended up taking a cruise of the Oslofjord - it was a perfect day to be on the water.Saturday, June 09, 2007
Pepsi Max
I love Pepsi Max. I've always been a Coke person more than a Pepsi person, but Pepsi Max is AWESOME. Sadly, the U.S. does not have Pepsi Max. Yet another compelling reason to emigrate.This tiny Pepsi Max (can you tell I love to say that?) truck was outside our train from Oslo to Myrdal, loading the snack bar.
In other news...
I went to the Hope Network 3 on 3 basketball tournament today. There were 181 teams there (6 WC teams). We played three official games and a 4th pickup game (we being my team, named "Gimps Plus One"; I was the plus one).
One thing I didn't consider was what happens in the summer when one spends 4.5 hours outside, in the sun, SITTING WITH SHORTS ON.
Have you all figured it out yet? That the tops of my legs, from mid thigh to mid knee are TOASTED? Well, they are. And they hurt. Like a bitch. It really is absurd just how sunburned my legs are. I can't wear pants, I can't set anything on my lap - even walking up and down the stairs stretches the skin in ways that are unpleasant. Anyway, I will be sleeping on my back tonight.
On the plus side, we came in third, and made a pretty good showing in our game against the first place team.
