Dear Diary

Dear Diary,

I don't usually write you like this but I thought I would. The last few days I've been pretty lazy and it has made me a bit guilty.

I am sorry for that.

Nevertheless this is what I have been up too:

Friday Night I didn't have anything going on, so I wandered over to my parents house and Dan (who is a really nice guy) just moved into town. I was invited to go with him and my brother-in-law Mark to the Alaskan. They wanted to get out of the house and talk. The place is pretty crowded right now as my sister is going to have her baby any day now (2 weeks over-due actually), and Ania is running out making noise.

Basically the place is a mad house. I so like my little studio apartment where it is cozy and just me.

So Dan and Mark both wanted out of the house and Dan wanted to go to the Alaskan. I had nothing going on (which seems to be pretty rare), so I went down with both of them and hung out with Mark and Dan.

Recently they have removed all smoking from all buildings in Juneau which is fantastic. I _HATE_ cigarette smoke. It really bothers me.

Dan just moved here from Michigan where he was telling me the economy is terrible. He is really excited about getting out of there and living in Alaska.

Eventually my hunger was so great I went home to get something to eat. Even their great company couldn't keep me from my Microwavable chimichanga. So I went home. My leg was still hurting me from pulling some muscle on tuesday. I was planning on going snowboarding on Saturday but the pulled muscle didn't make things easier.

Saturday:
I woke up, and... yep I was still hurting from my new pulled muscle. So I figured this would be a good day to take my yearly shower. There was several things going on that day which I just didn't go to... I felt bad but I was for some reason that entire day just in a "funk" I guess.

I did however go to Pizzaria Roma with Russ and Diane then go to Les Miserables. I really enjoyed it. I also brought my new Nokia N800 which I think is the greatest piece of equipment yet along with me and I got an IM from Sarah. I was so surprised it just "worked" in the theater.

Sunday I was also unmotivated but I drug myself around nevertheless. I got together with my little brother from BBBS and we walked along perseverance area, talked about old computer games then later Torsten stopped by with Matt and we went over to Aaron's and played Rockband.

Rockband helped a LOT. I think it helped me get over my hump because after rockband I had a lot more energy. My voice was SO tired, and my fingers too!

That entire day I was just feeling unmotivated but in the end things turned out alright.

Monday

My motivation level has gone up a lot which is good. This is the one day I don't have anything planned. I thought I'd give someone a call when I got home... anyway on the way Home I ran into Erica and I set a date to do something with her in the near future. Then just as the conversation ended with Erica and Shay, I ran into Ms. M. I don't really know Ms. M. too well as she is a very new acquaintance but she is a very fascinating person nevertheless. I was talking to her and freezing my but off when it was brought up to go someplace warmer and we ended up at the silverbow.

I don't think she noticed because I was trying to hide the fact that up I was actually freezing outside, possibly because I was just standing there. She appeared to be handling the weather much better than me.

It appears there is a very short window where she walks home and I walk home where we cross paths. The total distance of crossing paths is about 20-30 feet. So it will be rare if I ever "run across her" unless I get stopped by someone else in that short period of time.

So while we were talking a movie turns on at silver bow and we end up watching that. It was called the Great World of Sound. The movie made my heart reach out for these people because it was about essentially swindling people out of their money.

I remember thinking several times, I'm "Starving" for food and I would have bought her dinner if somehow I would have brought it up. But at the same time I couldn't bring it up because the movie was playing and it never came up in our discussions before hand.

After the movie it was after 10:00pm and I thought about mentioning food but now most everything was closed. It wasn't till later when I thought of PelMeni's but... oh well. I'm not always quick thought of the head.

So I went home and stuffed myself with Microwave food. So for a unplanned evening I have to say it was a very positive experience for me... not so sure about her as all of her plans got completely changed around.

The rest of this week is "really this time" should be pretty filled with stuff.
