What is a guy to do when he gets no sleep?, my answer is simple, make the best of it and that is what I did. It was a busy weekend to begin with, my nephew went to his prom on Saturday and it was Mother’s Day on Sunday. When I had some spare time I tried to work on something blog related but that didn’t go to well, I wanted to make some changes but ran into some technical difficulties so in the end everything stayed the same but I am going to keep on trying. It’s a pain not getting enough sleep and I am pretty sure that it won’t be the last time that it happens to me. I am one day late with this post but I am sure you don’t mind that., right?.
I had such a nice weekend, I slept when I had to sleep and that was a big change for me as you know and as a result I got to enjoy my weekend a bit more. I was going to go to the Festival of Books but in the end I stayed home instead, I just didn’t feel like dealing with traffic. I watched a couple of futbol games including the one between the four time champion DC United, my team by the way, and the New York Red Bulls. My team came back from a 2-0 deficit to win with a final score of 3-2 and that was exciting. I also watched the movie Next starring Nicholas Cage, with my nephew and I have to say that it was good. I also played COD 4, I had not played in a week!! so I was ready, I did not play as much as I have been playing as of late but I still had fun. I watched some TV Sunday night and went to bed late, yes I did.
The five day weekend just flew by and I didn’t do anything productive but then again that is not news. What’s sad is the fact that I have to go back to work and even though I love my job I just wish that I didn’t have to but sadly I do. Someday I am going to be the boss of me but until that happens I better get ready for that L.A. traffic plus I hear that it’s going to be about a million degrees today. Hey, that is life in the huge, it should be big I know but I want to see if you are paying attention, city people.
Why oh why do three day weekends fly by so fast?, I really wish I knew because it seems that just yesterday it was Thursday and I was getting ready to enjoy my three day weekend and the next thing I know it’s Monday and back to work. I am not happy about it but what can I do, the simple answer is nothing, so it’s back to work for me. It sure sucks being poor I tell you, anyway. The weekend was very nice, I didn’t do that much to be honest, I basically played a lot of COD 4 and slept even more. I went to bed late and woke up even later but then again that is something that I do very often as you know, I really need a vacation and I need it soon!!.
The Good, I decided to take a break and took a bus to Palm Springs to just get away. I left on Saturday morning at 8 am on Greyhound, the total was $52 dollars for a round-trip ticket which wasn’t that bad. I got to Palm Springs at exactly 11 am. The weather was pretty nice, not too hot during the day and not that cold at night. I got me a room for $71 dollars and just relaxed, I honestly didn’t do that much. I went out to get some food a couple of times and back to my room. I just wanted to relax, be alone and that is just what I did.
The Bad, is there anything bad about a nice one day getaway?, nope but when one of your bad habits tags along with you uninvited then yes, it’s bad. Friday night I didn’t sleep at all and that was ok because I figured that I would sleep soundly that Saturday. Boy was I wrong about that, at about 9 pm I went to bed, turned off the lights and I could not go to sleep. I would close my eyes but nothing, next thing I knew it was 8 am and I had not gotten any sleep in two days. I was tired and sleepy and I know that if I had slept on Saturday the one day getaway would have been a lot better.
pThe weekend is over and there were supposed to be some sprinkles from what the weather dudette said but I sure didn’t see any of that but that is ok. The week is another story, it’s going to be wet and I am getting ready for that. On Saturday I watched Enchanted which I love, I do have a Christmas wish list if you want to know more about what I want this Christmas. I then watched a taped episode of Survivor and after that finished I played COD 4 until I Am Legend started. I have wanted to watch that movie for the longest and I was expecting more to be honest but it wasn’t that good in my opinion, I was very disappointed. I then surfed the net for a few and then went to bed, very exiting huh./p pSunday came and I woke up at about 1pm, took a shower got some food and then I logged on and surfed the net for a while. Did some stuff here and there around the house the rest of the evening and when 8pm hit I was on my seat ready for the Survivor finale, Bob won and in my opinion he didn’t deserve to win. He won some immunity challenges and made some fake idols and that was that, Sugar was more deserving but she didn’t even get a single vote. I once again got online after that and surfed for a while and ended up going to bed late, real late./p
The four day weekend really came and went and I sure seem to have missed it. I honestly didn’t do anything, productive, and that is the way it usually is with me. I wanted to do something very important and I kept just passing the buck along, I’ll do it tomorrow I said and then tomorrow came and ended up doing nothing, so sad. I am still a bit sick if you can believe it, I have this cough that won’t go away but hopefully it will soon. I did go to bed late and woke up even later and as a result I missed a good part of the most days. No use complaining about it now, too late for that. Anyway, December is here and I am going to try to be as productive as I can before the year is over and hopefully start the year on the right foot, yeah!!.
The weekend came and went and I sure didn’t pay that much attention to it. Maybe it was because I was sick or medicated or both. It started on Friday a couple of hours before I got home from work. I started to sneeze like crazy, had a runny nose, my eyes were watery and my throat hurt.
I got home took some medicine and went straight to bed but I just couldn’t sleep and that didn’t bother me because as you know I usually go to bed late. So I started to play Call of Duty and I don’t know if it was my skills or the medication but I was playing good. I ended up going to bed at about 5am and didn’t wake up until 4pm. I get up and I check what is on TV and sure enough there was a game at 4:30pm between the FC Dallas and the Toronto FC and it was a great game that ended in a 2-2 tie. Night time came and again I played some more COD 4 and went to bed at about 3am. The misery continued on Sunday, I felt bad all day. I got up at about 2pm, I took my medicine, got some food, watched Project Runway and then watched the Amazing Race 13 and did some blog related work. I ended up going to bed at 3am and that was the end of my lousy weekend.
The sad part about the whole thing is that I have to go to work today and I am not feeling that good yet. I am just going to have to deal with it the best way I can.
The weekend came and went I am already waiting for the next one. I didn’t do that much to be honest, I didn’t even play Call of Duty 4 that much and that really surprised me. I watched a couple of movies, The Brave One with Jodie Foster; that was a good movie and in fact I was rooting for her, nothing wrong with killing a few deserving criminals if you ask me. Then it was time for the main event, Iron Man. I loved this movie, it was great and I have to admit that I almost cried a couple of times. Just don’t remind me of that in the future ok because I will deny, deny, deny. I didn’t watch any games during the weekend and that was a surprise as well. I did watch Project Runway, its down to the final four and the best reality show ever; The Amazing Race 13. The sad news is the one of my teams was eliminated but I still have one team left. Now its time to go back to work and I sure don’t want to, damn. Why can’t I win the lottery or find a super model that falls in love with me, so sad.
Oh the weekend, it is just a memory now for me. You see I don’t know why but the weekend was a total waste of time. I didn’t do anything productive and that really bothers me but then again most of my weekends are like that so I don’t know why I am complaining. I followed my usual routine, went to bed late and got up even later and as a result I have this nagging headache that won’t go away.
I did watch the best reality show on TV on Sunday. The Amazing Race 13 started and if you have never seen it I highly recommend it to you. There are eleven teams and each year us kids choose 2 or 3 teams a piece depending on how many people are playing. This season we have five people playing so we choose two teams a piece and one is left floating. Since my team won last year I chose first. I am hoping to win again this season but we are going to have to wait and see, where is the aspirin?.
