YayOffDay!

Day off's are always good. I always try to maximize it by waking up early and spending the day doing "quality" things, which in most cases is synonmous with "quantity." Hey, I like to feel like I didn't waste a day off.
So I started by waking up early and going to the gym. I found that I was very fatigued and my stomach was stomachey. Putting my Public Health expertise to use, I figure it was something I ate a couple days ago. Regardless, I slogged through my workout and still came home with plenty of morning left.
So with that in mind, I thoroughly cleaned my washroom. Sparkling clean!
I waited for patriciasabares (I say her full name fast) to call because we agreed to go to lunch because we haven't seen in each other for way over a year, possibly even two. We met at her old work, by my Dentist's office. It was funny because when I was parking, my Dentist was in a car and saw me and prolly thought I was there to see him. He was going out to lunch I assume, and he looked like he was freaking out because he thought I was there for another emergency. I tried my hardest to do the "no, don't worry" hand gesture, and I guess it worked because he didn't stop.
So anyway, we went to Hinote Japanese Restaurant. I always remembered patriciasabares as a hyper, talkative girl that always had something to say. Today, she seemed like a Ritalin induced subdued girl. She was mentioning how she wants to just grow up and be an adult. I pretended to agree with her, but really, what's the rush? Next thing you know you're 43 years old and having a midlife crisis. But anywho, this birfday thing has its perks as she treated me for lunch. I should have ordered the lobster then (that joke never seems to fail with me). I told her, "okay, next time I'll treat you." So I guess I'll treat her in 2 years? (truth admit time: I used to like her, thinking she was my dream girl in early high school. Until I got to know her. And until BJ stole her away from me...trust me, that's funny to BJ).
Got home, and realized I still had even more things to do (again, the "don't waste this day" syndrome I have on day offs). So I called up Jeps and told him we were gonna watch Bride and Prejudice with the tape Sharon let me borrow. BJ and Kathleen ended up showing up, and the movie was funny. I swear, I'm going to think everytime I see a lot of Indians that they are going to bust out in synchronized song and dance. The movie was funny, and while most people would think the lead in the movie, the girl who played Lalita, was the hot girl in the movie, I actually liked Lucky. She looked like this:

This movie makes me want to date an Indian girl. Oh wait...
Sure the movie does not depict Indians accurately and it's highly unlikely that girls that hot would have a hard time finding a guy (except for the youngest girl in the movie. lol...she was the ugly, fat daughter who didn't go with the girls to London and Los Angeles because maybe she was ugly and fat. Well, in relative comparison to the other girls. Listen, you gotta watch this movie to understand what I'm saying here). But the movie did accurately describe a few things Indian: that sometimes when you eat Indian food you can get "Delhi Belly"; that dancing can be considering screwing in the light bulb and petting the dog; and, that I should touch Sharon's Mom's feet before I say hi to her next time. Okay, maybe not the last part, but it should prove to be interesting if I do actually attempt to do it. Plus, it would make Sharon question her choice of significant other. Not like she doesn't, anyway. But I'm the luckiest guy in the world because she has a short memory and then she forgets what she was questioning in the first place. And then we hug.
(This is the point where a bunch of people are supposed to bust out singing and dancing and a lot of flower petals are being thrown)
After the movie, we played some Hold 'Em. I couldn't really play because aside from my upset stomach and wanting to go home, this was the fourth time in five days I've played. I mean, I love the game and all, but it's just getting ridiculous. A major case of pokeroverload is what I had.
So thus concluded my day off. I hope my stomach (aka tummy) is better tomorrow, but if not, looks like my first sick day is going to be used. Nah, I think I'll just tough it out.
