Life...sometimes

I am a double booked Saturday...

Video Games Live was awesome! There sure are a lot of gamers our there man. There were these girls next to us that seemed like they were gonna fall of their chairs everytime they intro'd the next video game they were gonna do. The dudes behind us were frickin humming to the entire Sonic the Hedgehog tribute. Personally, I really liked the Legend of Zelda piece, reminded me of all the years I've been playing video games. I can't believe it's been 20 years since Super Mario Brothers came out...man, I'm old. My personal highlight of the night would have to be seeing Hideo Kojima, creater of the Metal Gear series! That game is so awesome. I also saw some games I want to start playing from watching that show. One thing I thought was really cool about the show was that it probably introduced a lot of the younger generation to Orchestra culture. I thought it was an incredibly creative way to bring different types of people together, those that appreciated orchestra and the LA Philharmonic and also those that just loved video games. I'd definitely go see another one. Only drawback was that we didn't bring food with us to the Hollywood Bowl when we totally could've, so we starved throughout it. Plus we were there so long that by the time we got out we didn't have time to get something to eat afterward since everyone had to head home cuz of work the next day, so it would've been so much smarter had I thought of bringing in some food. Well, it's something to keep in mind for Etta James in a few weeks...

You know what sucks about events far in the future? You...correction, I do not check those dates way in the future before you, I mean, I, book something for your...myself. I registered for the Nike Run Hit Wonder in LA for Sept 24 the other day and I was so amped up. We were talking about that last night on the way to the show and then it hits Cic and me all of the sudden, Sept 24....that's the day of the EAGLES CONCERT!!!!! So now, we are double booked because both events are non-refundable. So we either have to find a way to do both of them, or find replacements to run for us in the 10K. We think we might be able to do the 5k instead of the 10K and then go to the concert. I really wanted to do the 10k though...not like I've been running consistently though. We'll see.

I really need to start going back into the gym. I have gotten much fatter in the past few weeks. All I do is eat and I've only been playing bball about once or 2x a week lately since the other 2 leagues are on hiatus for now. Plus, as I said already, no regular gym visits. Well, here is my concerted effort to diet better and work out at least 3x a week on top of bball and dragonboat. No Guts, no slacking....

Last regular season game tonight for my Thursday league. We won last week, so I hope we're really finishing strong and will carry the momentum into the playoffs....eek!
