Sunday
I don’t think that words can adequately explain how badly my knee ached this morning. Suffice if to say: A lot. Oh well. “That which does not kill me…” as the saying goes.

After a bit of puttering around the apartment, I headed to Borders. For some drawing and Cafe Mocha. I picked up a few new magazines. In a bookstore, who would have thought it possible?! Friend Angela showed up and we chatted for a bit. There was even a cameo appearance by .

Back home and then off for dinner (Desert Edge), coffee (Salt Lake Coffee Break) and a movie. We saw Identity. joined us for coffee and the movie (It was nice to finally meet you.) If I was to say anything other than “This was a very well-done film,” I’d be giving too much away. So, I’ll leave it at: “If you have the opportunity, see it.” I would even see it again, to see if I can pick up on things that I missed in the first viewing.

And, as far as a recap of yesterday, events went more or less in this order:

  • I woke up feeling not quite 100%, so I stayed around the apartment for the early part of the day. I was firing on all cylinders towards early afternoon.
  • I had a really good conversation with , while she was taking a study break.
  • I decided to take a cue from Prince’s “Sign O the Times” and Play in the Sunshine and met and others for a few games of Ultimate. Which is where I did… something untoward… to my knee. I still don’t remember when “whatever” happened, but by the time we left it was achy. Not at all fun.
  • Word of the Day: Nizlee!
  • Home for a shower and then off to dinner at Sampan. There was a couple directly behind our table and, apparently, they knew the people at the next table over from them. It was a little odd to hear them talking about how good the food was at another Chinese restaurant (Asian Star, home of many a Mallday). Kind of like going to Car Dealership A and boasting about how smooth a ride you though a car from Dealership B. But, it was good for a laugh.
  • Bowling. And on a less than jake (but better than ezra) knee, it was something of a challenge for the first couple of games. It was still a good night… even though I missed getting another 200 game by one pin! Verdammt.
  • Post-bowling breakfast fare followed, with a second-reel appearance by and the Brad. And “The Singles” were there. One of them gave another one something that we are assuming was a face/scalp massage, but we could not swear that it wasn’t some Vulcan mating ritual or bizarre mind meld. Robert made an analogy to Mr. Burns’ brain massage from The Simpsons… and we couldn’t rule that out as a possibility, either.
  • Nyx: Are you pondering what I’m pondering?

I just checked the clock and realized that it is much later than I had planned on being up. Damn those bright, shiny objects and their power to distract and mesmerize! *shakes fist* And with that, I am off to wander around The Dreaming.

Namaste.
