Do you ever feel like everything you do goes in circles? Get up, go to work, come home, repeat. Go to grocery store, cook food, watch TV. I have this urge inside to sell everything, and disappear, Into the Wild/Razor's Edge style. Maybe write a book, as I traveled the globe.
I need to clear up last week's KU post....
Raspberry, Kel, I don't want to be misunderstood, I am fine with people who support their favorite sports teams. What gets under my skin, is the so called mega-fan, who have to talk down any other team, and lives in this delusional world that their team is the best ever, nobody can beat them, and you are a loser if you don't like the same team. I have plenty of KU friends, of course, I live in Kansas. What I was trying to post, is there are different types of fans. The completely sane, normal ones, and the 'you suck we rule' fans. I was merely aggravated by my bowling team members who instead of 'talking' about basketball, they wanted to put me down for not being a KU fan. I could be a fan of anyone and if it wasn't KU, then they would attack me. It's like invasion of the body snatchers, if you don't support KU then they sniff you out and try to invade your mind so they can melt it, remove it, and therefore making you into a KU fan.
This was a decent weekend. Friday I left early to meet my cousin for some golf out in DeSoto. It's not the fanciest course, but for $20 after 3pm, I am fine there. It's a little more laid back too. My short game was horrible, but I had some good drives off the tee. Afterwards when I got home I played some Tiger Woods PS3, watched some TV, and went to bed. I got up around 7am Saturday, and was going to watch some Food Network, before running some errands. I jumped in the shower, and missed a call from my buddy Alex. He and his very cool girlfriend wanted to go see the new Dane Cook movie 'My Best Friend's Girl', and they invited me to come with. It was a hilarious movie, full of great one liners, it's pretty vulgar, and I was a tiny bit uncomfortable even having Alex's girlfriend there. She was cracking up too though, but I am from that old school mold, with it engraved that kind of language is not appropriate around women. I cuss with the best of them, but if a female is present, it's a rare slip if you hear me curse. After the movie we went over to Granite City for lunch, and then went by Alex's girl's Mom's place. She (her Mom) has an herb garden and they had been promising me some fresh herbs for awhile. We left and I had a bags of Rosemary, Dill, Cilantro, Oregano, Sage, and even some peppers! When I got home I was exhausted, I watched Ask Aida from that morning, made a grocery list, and took a nap.
Sunday I ran to the grocery store early, so I could make a recipe from Aida's show. I bought ingredients to make all three recipes actually. I thought I had enough rice at home, but I didn't so I only made one. I started marinating some chicken, and from the show, a pork loin roast. You marinate the roast in Orange and Grapefruit juice, along with cilantro, Serrano peppers, and garlic. When it's time to cook, you strain the marinade, and then use it to make an orange sauce. I haven't tried it yet, but might slice some up for dinner tonight.
I mixed in some Tiger Woods, and oh my gosh, I got my first ever hole in one on the game. It was a par 3, with a decent wind coming at me. I put a little extra muscle on the drive, and a slow backspin to the right. When your shot is going to be close, the screen changes, and changes to a semi slow motion, and then 'dink' it rolled in. Barkley was just as excited because I screamed like a little girl. Pretty silly when you live alone I know.
I drove up to Target while my food was marinating, to get some doggie treats, and look for a PSP game. Since I'm playing Tiger on the PS3, I am pretty sure my go-to game on the PSP won't be enuf to entertain me on trips. When I got home, I watched Sons of Anarchy from last Wednesday, I tossed in that movie I recommended 'Find Me Guilty' and True Blood was on last night too. One of my favorite quotes in the movie is when Vin Diesel is talking to his daughter from inside jail.

I went to bed around 10 last night, and was asleep by 10:30, which is unusual for me.
Ok, that's it for today..
ciao a presto!

You are fine about the whole fan thing. I totally understand what you are saying. =)
Congrats on your hole in one on Tiger Wood's golf. My husband plays that game too. I always laugh because you can make your character look just like you. He always has his guy have on knickers and I ask him whey he is wearing capri's? LOL
That is so nice of you to watch your language around women. Alot of men are not respectful and I appreciate you making the extra effort. You some good people! =)
I wished I could have been there to see you scream like a little girl and Barkley's reaction!!! ; ) I love it!
My husband plays on the PC. I am not mentioning the PS3 or he will want to buy one! LOL. Can you still hook up even though he is playing through the PC and you are playing on PS3?
