Pete's Log: crazy me

Entry #1141, (Life in General)
(posted when I was 23 years old.)

I currently have a 60 game winning streak on the freecell installed on malloc. I also really like Reed's Premium Ginger Brew. It's good stuff.

My occasional ability to give up anything resembling will power amazes me. Last night was very fun. The good time was preceded by a frustrating day, which is probably what led to the evaporation of any good sense I may keep stored away in my brain somewhere. The reasons for my frustration can be reduced to the following: I'm a silly person and windows sucks. The two are not related.

So sometime after 18:00 yesterday I fled Fitzpatrick in defeat and picked up Mamie and Beth from SMC. Andy joined us at my place shortly afterwards and we watched "Ranma 1/2 the Movie 2: Nihao my Concubine." It was a very entertaining film, Ranma 1/2 continues to amaze me. I then dropped Mamie and Beth off at SMC since they weren't interested in going out with us.

Andy and I then both drove over to Cari's. I brought my car since I figured if I drive, I won't drink much. However, after a short while at Cari's I realized the night had the potential to be very fun, so my car got left behind and Andy drove us all downtown. We went to Benchwarmers to see a benefit show. I think the money was going to leukemia research or something. But three campus bands played. NRQ, the Skammunists, and Lester. It was a good show, each band played for about an hour or so. Unfortunately the crowd was kinda lame, there was little dancing for most of the time. But I did my part to compensate for that. I also bought a $3, 5 track NRQ cd they had for sale. After NRQ finished playing I got all the band members to autograph the liner notes. I think they enjoyed that. Very fun show.

After the show we headed to a party at castle point. The way there was a lot of fun. I chatted with some Tennessee fans on the street (I was polite, I'm a good ND fan) and I generally made a fool of myself. I also was named an honorary Kenso by some of Cari's friends who were visisting. The party was fun for a while. I had fun talking to various people. Later it got kinda annoying, though, so I took off.

This morning I woke up feeling very sore. It's been a while since I've been sore like this from dancing. My neck really hurts, and for about the first hour after I woke up, I could barely walk, my right leg hurt so bad. So feeling the way I did, I skipped the first half of the game, instead watching it on TV with Meagan. I got to the stadium for the second half, and just in time, too. I got into the stands right before the interception ND ran back for a score. The game went better than I was expecting. We actually gave the Volunteers a run for their money. But in the end, we made too many silly mistakes and that cost us the game. Oh well.

I don't remember what else there was. So I guess I should go get my car from Cari's house now.
