Getting Cable

We spent all day running network cable at the high school. When we weren’t running cable at the high school, we were running cable at one of the elementaries. At least lunch was Lenovo’s treat.

I was so exhausted after work that I went to my parents’ house to take a dip in the pool. It was my first swim all summer, and I needed it. It was my parents’ anniversary, but Mom fell asleep on the couch, so we didn’t go out for dinner. I had a leftover salad for dinner instead, then headed home.

I had forgotten about Sonic’s half-price cream slushes and shakes today, so I went back out to AT&T to visit and see if anyone there wanted to join me. I convinced Mayra to go, and we sat out on the patio to enjoy our treats.

Afterward, I came back home and played a couple rounds of Battlegrounds with Johnny, Clint, and Josh until my headache got the best of me.

If the headache doesn’t kill me, another charley horse like last night definitely will.

Mama Mia!

When you’re feeling unmotivated and nothing makes sense, do laundry.
You’re guaranteed at least some minor feeling of accomplishment for the basic task, and it’s a good way to kickstart your mood.

I went to my parents’ house for dinner for Mother’s Day, but Mom wasn’t feeling up to going out, so she cooked for Dad and me.

Allora.

What are Traditions: Easter 2017

I spent the better part of the day trying to beat what I’ve learned to be one of the hardest StarCraft: Brood War campaign missions. I’ve been stuck on it for over a year, I think, and I’ve refused to play StarCraft II until I complete the original campaign. It’s not looking good.

When evening finally rolled around, I headed to my parents’ house for beef spring rolls. Julie and Andy came over too, and it was his first time with the DIY rolling. I always feel bad for people trying to eat difficult food out of their element. I feel awkward enough eating around other people without having to assemble something out of parts that literally melt on your plate if you don’t complete it fast enough.

I think I like my new feather pillows. I’d better go check on them.
