It has been a long weekend.

Well,
I haven't done much writing this weekend so I thought I write something today. This past weekend I watched sports and sat around home watching more sports. I know nothing exciting. Well the weather has been typical Houston hot for summer and I haven't enjoyed the great excitement of the summer days.

On Friday I spent the day t KPFT at the Living Art Studio before heading back home. The show was a total disaster, it was supposed to be a clip show of the best of 3 years but it looked like they chopped off most of the interviews that they aired previously and put them together in one whole show. So that was terrible. I decided afterwards I would come home and relax. I didn't do much relaxing I was back on my feet cleaning up the den and living room.


After I did that I decided that on Friday I should just relax and chill. So thats what I did.



Saturday rolled around and like most Saturdays I tend to get bored staying home,well this Saturday had two sporting events I wanted to see Rice Vrs Tulane and The Belmont. Well after thinking that dad was going with me to BW3s to watch the Tulane game, I thought it would be cool if I meet a friend there to go watch it with us. Well change of plans, the game was on TV. So of course, Dad didn't needed to be there so I told him I would just need a ride to the place to meet my friend. Well my friend didn't show up either but I did meet Peter Mcdonald. Peter is this 50ish old guy with a beach hat who reminds me of southern Woody Allen. Nicest guy in the world and neurotic to the bone but funny as hell. I met him when I was part of the Rally club at Rice. So of course seeing him was exciting enough to watch the game and it sure beat staying at home cooped up staying another boring Saturday at the house. So while watching the game we order food I ordered a chicken wrap and he order wings. He ordered a bucket of beer for us to split. Well, when it came to split the check, I thought I was ordering cheap Oh boy was I wrong . I paid 22 dollars. I felt ripped off. I felt like I blew a load of money which I didn't have on something I really didn't care for the beer but I thought OK we would split it. I enjoyed my diet coke.


Afterwards I was feeling a little depressed that I spent half of my money with Pete, also at the fact that Tulane lost. I felt that I needed to do something that night, so I figured I needed to do something that night. I needed to do something to do something to keep myself off the edge off of blowing off my hard earned money. I can home and watched the Belmont and saw that Afleet Alex won. That was awesome! I was pulling for Giacomo but he placed 4th not bad he was in the lead till the end but blew it.

After the race I wanted to do something fun. I needed to do something that night since dad was working and mom was going out and dad was working.
I called my friends to see if they wanted to do something, so I called Polly to see if she wanted to do something. So she was the only one who was free and we saw each other and hung out at Starbucks and ate at Goode Company.
She paid for it, so that was kind of fun. Polly was a really nice lady and we talked for a while till both of us were tired.

Then Sunday arrived which was fun. I woke up at 10 and I started my day at 12. I saw Amy. I thought that was fun. Amy and I spent the time MFA looking at the Baseball exhibit that was displayed which was a lot of fun. The weather was hot but we enjoyed the exhibit then afterwards we went to Hermann park and walked around hung around there for a few hours then returned home to eat barbeque and ate ribs. After we ate we left to return to Helios to Liz Keith's gone away party. The party itself was terribly boring but I did have a good time with Amy so it was not bad I saw Mariana, but it was terrible at poetry and loud music. The whole thing was just awful. But in the good news, Tulane won yesterday.

So my weekend was pretty full and I enjoyed it and I hope to have fun this week.

Well Thath as been my weekend I hope to accomplish something productive and do something good like finish my book and write a new one.
