Bachelor Life - In Excruciating Detail

Ginette and Dayla left for the weekend to hang out with my Mom and sister. I realize I haven't had a weekend all to myself in a very long time. Since I am sure I will get bored very quickly I'm going to write everything I do today and bore everyone else unfortunate enough to read this.

• 8:16am - Woke up. Actually make the bed (sort of).
• 8:18am - Check emails on my Blackberry.
• 8:20am - Read the Internet for a while. Think about what I am going to do today.
• 8:47am - Take a shower. Decide not to shave for the second day in a row. Scrufftastic!
• 9:02am - Get dressed. Grab the first Threadless shirt on top of the pile. It looks cold today so I'm going with the skate shoes instead of the flip flops.
• 9:12am - Grab some iced coffee and toast and head out the door
• 9:20am - Arrive at Vons. Pick up a gallon of milk and some cash back on my purchase
• 9:45am - Check out the Farmer's Market in Scripps Ranch. I'm hoping to find some good looking, locally grown produce. I'm disappointed with the selection and walk away with nothing.
• 10:10am - Arrive at Ranch 99 Asian Market. Pick up some basic I can't get at Vons: curry paste, coconut milk, lime leaves, and sashimi grade fish.
• 10:35am - I'm already bored being by myself. Before leaving Ranch I call Kate and suggest a movie. She's in! We agree to make plans in the late afternoon.
• 10:50am - Get home, unpack my groceries, put on This American Life on iTunes, and start making sushi rice.
• 11:01am - The rice is soaking. Time to play some Metroid 3!
• 12:30pm - Sushi's done. Watching the movie "Lucky You"
• 1:15pm - Uuggghhhh. Tooo much sushi. I put the rest in the fridge for later. However I have to say that a salmon, cream cheese, and red pepper inside-out roll is might tasty.
• 2:45pm - Movie's over. Pretty good. An accurate poker procedural with a tacked on romance. I guess no studio would budget a poker procedural without a romance.
• 2:46pm - Time to play some online poker!
• 2:49pm - Hmmm. It looks like the law stuck. No real money for US players. Bahh. What's the point.
• 4:41pm - 441st place out of 840 players in the Omaha Hi-Lo tournament. I really don't know what I am doing when it comes to that game.
• 5:35pm - Kate's here. Time to make some curry and eat the rest of the sushi.
• 6:40pm - The curry (Masman this time) turned out better than usual if I do say so myself. Kate agrees. However she would probably say nice things even if it tasted terrible. We discuss The Omnivore's Dilemma for awhile which we are both in the middle of reading.
• 7:25pm - We arrive at the movie theater to see Eastern Promises. Seriously, seriously, how many commercials how can they show before the movie. Movie Theater Executive: "We are losing more customers to On Demand movies, Netflix, and Tivo. What can we do to increase our goodwill with the public? I got it, more commercials and higher prices. Brilliant!"
• 9:30pm - Very good movie. 4 out of 5. I would say I like A History of Violence better since it did have the same director and lead. I probably would have given this one a 4.5/5 if I didn't have to see so much of Viggo's wang in the shower knife fight scene.
• 9:40pm - Kate drops me off. I'm pretty tired. One Simpsons rerun than it's off to bed.
• 10:17pm - Good night.
