(I don't know why I bother with the "Morning" part up there, because really, who am I kidding? But I like the alliteration, so it stays.)

Want to know what I've been up to lately?

Friday: BOWLING! Holy crap, bowling is ever fun. It's so dorky, but what a great, inexpensive way to spend an evening. I was driving, so I didn't get to partake in the $11 pitchers of beer, but seriously... ELEVEN DOLLARS! Awesome, right?

Saturday: I had to take my car in for an oil change before I make the trek up north for T'giving later this week. The shop I go to is only open 8-12 on Saturdays, so I brought it up there just after 9 and then went to my gym, which is a block away, to ride the bike for an hour. I'm starting to get used to the bike thing. I still don't feel like I get my heart rate up, but it's the perfect time to get some reading in, and the machine claims I am burning calories. After my car was done, I went home, showered, changed, and then met Nick at Barnes & Noble for coffee and to stock up on Christmas cooking and crafts magazines. (Okay, only I got the magazines.) I then went home and lounged on my couch while leafing through said magazines, then later joined some friends at a local bar to watch college football (which I care nada about). Saturday night was spent continuing to lounge on the couch. I am nothing if not a party animal.

Sunday: Had to come in and put a few hours in at work. I didn't mind though because I am really, really, really hoping I can make my hours this quarter and get a bonus. I'm sure it won't actually happen, but I'm trying! After work, I met those same friends (while minus a couple, and adding a few) at another bar to watch NFL football (which I care lots about, now that I am in a pick-em league), specifically the Giants game. And they won even without two of their best players! Boo-yah! After that, well you know the drill... couch time.
