Le Weekend

Friday I stayed in. I was supposed to go to Christy's for a film screening but it was raining and I didn't have it in me. I wanted to be in bed by 10 for Saturday morning anyway. I think I should just give up telling people "yeah I may be there" on Friday events because I really can't make it out very much anymore before my big runs.

Saturday was a big run - ten miles! I am so f'ing proud of myself for running 10 miles. And not being in horrid pain, and actually loving it, and wanting to go back out there now and do it again. I bonded with two (gay) guys in my group as a result of one of those "ain't no school gon' teach mah kids 'bout sex" person. So new friends, woo! We decided next week I should wear a shirt that says "I'm pro-choice and I have sex with tons of strangers." I don't own such a shirt but it'd be a kind of cool idea.

Saturday afternoon was the Cubs-Sox game 2. Nate and I watched it together, our own mini-version of crosstown rivalry in my living room. It was a crushing blow to the ole Sox, with the Cubs getting 9 runs in one inning. Ouch. I had to keep telling myself "it's ok, the Sox got 37 runs in their last 3 games before this series" but it didn't fully help. Other than my mom calling me to throw the win in my face, Nate and my brother (both Cubs fans) were very polite about it. A rarity in Cubs fans (jk?).

Saturday night I met up with Jennifer for some catch-up drinks at Happy Village, where it was douche bag central, complete with a man squeezing my bare arm! Why do people think they can just touch another person they don't know? Gross. Later in the evening Nate met up with us for another drink.

Today I've been lazying about. I really need to clean but I'm not feeling up for it. I am going to Onion City Film Festival tonight to see Jennifer's world premiere of her film! I'm proud of her, and it'll be nice to see some exp films after years of skipping out on them.

Next week is going to be stressful - my first presentation in front of 100+ 18 year olds is Thursday, I leave for Anaheim Friday, present for another 100+ professionals Saturday, don't get to hang with my doggy, miss the second cubs-sox series...yeah, not looking forward to next weekend. The only good thing will be that I'll get to see Patricia and Juan for the first time in TWO YEARS, and catch up with my old SF coworkers at dinner.
