Back to reality

Hopefully I will be back here sooner than later, and thankfully I have a few reasons to come back (family and Bobby).

After being spoiled with fancy dinners at:
Dukes http://www.dukesmalibu.com/ (seared rare yellow fin, mai tai to drink, and chocolate molton cake with macademia nut ice cream)
Salt Creek http://www.saltcreekgrille.com/valencia.asp (blacken chilean sea bass, blue moon x2, chocolate souffle (one of the best deserts I have tasted)
In-N-Out http://www.in-n-out.com/ (double double with fries and chocolate shake)
Chick-fil-a http://www.chick-fil-a.com/#home (chicken sandwich combo with chocolate shake)
Carl's Jr. http://www.carlsjr.com/ (jalapeno burger with fries and chocolate shake)
Baja Fresh http://bajafresh.com/ (Fish Tacos x2 with rice and beans and chips)

Now it is back to eating boring, budget food in doom and gloom minnesota. Boo.

I also haven't run at all out here. I planned on it, but it didn't happen. I spent days beach side and pool side too, so that needs to count for something. I also stared in awe at the mountains surrounding my parents' house.

I need some excitement in my life. Damn you reality.

AHHH

Fuck

I never want to leave California. This was a bad choice to visit.

My new theme song...

Excited to hang tomorrow and not work. Get to run 6 miles in the morning (that I was supposed to run today, but chose sleep instead since I had to work) and then I am just gonna be hanging. Anyway, peep the song and tell me that it isn't amazing. FUCK YOU OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

I have a whacky work schedule the next few days in which I work 3-11 everyday from Friday-Wednesday. It makes me tired just thinking about it.

The English Premier League kicks off tomorrow. I am not as vocal for my love of the premier league as I am for the NFL, but I love it just as much. Every Saturday and Sunday starting tomorrow until next May will have footy games. That is a refreshing thought.

Arsenal should be solid again this year. If injuries didn't decimate last year they would have raised the trophy. Of course that is a very big "if". They start this season off Sunday at Liverpool in what will be a good match to kick off the season with.

(Flash forward ahead about 2 1/2 hours)

I hate people. Among other winners I checked in tonight included a lady who was pushing 3 bills and when she was notified there was no pool her response was, "ohhh no but I really wanted to go swimming". She said this with a gross babyish(????) face on. Shit was wierd. I am just thankful no one had to see her fat ass in a bathing suit.

Anyway I don't want to start bitching about people because I am not that negative of a person. Everyone already knows I hate 9 out of 10 people and I am a certified hater so I won't even spend time on it.



I will wrap up with this before I get to go home and play xbox.

Premier League Final Standings May 2011
1. Arsenal
2. Chelsea
3. Man City
4. Tottenham
5. Man United
6. Liverpool

After writing that list this year is going to be one wide open league. I am super pumped to get up bright and early tomorrow and watch man city vs. spurs.

Player of the Year: Cesc Fabragas (his last season with the gunners before he goes to Barca)

I have a football preview coming in the next few weeks. I will most likely write it while flying to LA.

half marathon

Last year I ran a marathon in june. This October I am going to back to the race circuit with participation in the monster dash half marathon on October 30. I am very excited on many different levels to run this.
1. Gives me a goal to work towards
2. It will be the fall
3. It leads right up to halloween
4. Having already trained for a marathon, this won't be as tough.

I start my training tomorrow, but have been running for the last few weeks and have felt well. I am excited to see what the luce line looks like as the trees change color in the fall.

I am heading to california in just over 2 weeks to visit and am excited for that. I have been lucky enough to go out to Mark's cabin the last few weekends which has been amazing. The summer is winding down and fall is upon us. I am going to enjoy the rest of summer, but will welcome the fall with open arms.

That is all for now.

p.s. I am taking the fall league for kickball off.
