A renewed effort
So this was a good weekend. Got off Friday and headed home. Freya'as brother had just come in to town, so the three of us and Ronen went out for some good pizza at Tottonos. Ryan's Daughter was next on the list for a few pints and a bunch of games of Wordster.
Got up on Saturday and headed down to Modells for some stuff. I bought some batting gloves, mostly because my hands got pretty sweaty inside my mitt and it was sliding too much since the leather had stretched. I also got a softball to screw around with and two pairs of compression shorts. I love those things.
In any case, I'm walking back up to catch the bus on 3rd and who is standing in an atrium but Beatrice. So we chat for a bit and I head home. I lie down and turn on AMC and they are playing The Shining. I can feel a nap coming on, but I fight it so I can see Jack bust through that door with an axe and do his Carson thing, but it turns out I fell asleep right before it and woke up right after it. Sucks.
A little later Ro and I go out to the Peculiar Pub to meet up with Dana et al. She and Lou were late, then Bonnie and her sister and this guy Chris and Alix show up. So Alix and I get talking again. Something about her - she just throws me off and I do the same to her. So we headed up to Local as Kobe was bartending and we get free drinks. Alix was all up in my junk. A few more drinks and Bonnie is off and 6 of us are back at my place doing bong hits and watching Clerks. Good stuff. Everyone goes home. I go to bed.
Softball game on Sunday. 1 for 2 with a single, a SO, 1 RBI sac fly. We lost. It sucked. Go home, take a nap.
Right before we headed out to Pete's for a Sunday evening rooftop BBQ, Beatrice knocks on the door. She's going running but we invite her and tell her we'll wait. We head over and things are looking ok. We get to the apt. and Larry is just getting there. We talk, we grill.
I meet this english indian girl named Mindi, who just moved to the city after visiting for a week and deciding she was moving here. Reminded me of Parminder Nagra. Nice girl. So they set up for beer pong and Ro and B are going to play and then it's me and Larry. Well, Ro didn't write me name down and then got roped in to playing with Lilly, leaving me and B to figure out a way to play. A game had finished and this girl Bree is up next but needs a partner. I tell her I can't leave mine. So she lets us play. Aweseomeness.
B gets really competitive when she does anything. She hadn't played for 3 years but totally turned it on in the end. She missed a number of shots and got all pissed. I told her she needs to harness that energy and use it to hit the last cup because I suck at it. Well, she hit the last cup and we win.
so before we leave, I run in to Karen who's a little hottie who works at Heartland and does promotion for Clearchannel. Indie rocker all the way. And right before I'm leaving, Bree comes up and, as oblivious as I am, starts hitting on me. She's all about how beautiful my eyes are. I tell her I can't see hers and we turn so she's in the light. I go, "Oh, yeah. They're alright." Worst thing to say. She gets all pissed and I apologised. "I blew it, huh?" She's says "Yes you did." Funny stuff.
In either case, we have a match next week, B and I, against Bree and Chris, who lives there. He was mad we were leaving but it was getting late and there was no beer left. Tonight B and I are going running, so it'll be interesting to see how that goes.
Done and done.
