Random Saturday
So!
Paintball was fantastic. I have nine welts in various places, mostly my right arm. Seems I need to find a better way to take cover while shooting.
I also got hit three times in the face mask and twice on the top of the head. Lesson learned there, although slowly.
And once in the rear end, but I was already out and headed for the sidelines. Cheap shot.
Anyway, the paintball was well worth the trip north. We skipped out on the brewfest due to various time and monetary constraints -- which ended up being okay all around, I think. Personally, my hair was caked with paint. I was okay with NOT being seen in public right away.
Instead, we made it back to Wausau early and I showered and went shopping. No luck with shoes, but I'm done with my Christmas shopping for Mia Sorella. So that's cool.
Isn't this just a terribly exciting update? Wow. I amaze myself sometimes.
I spent some of my usual quality time at B&N as well ... However, I was quickly reminded that Saturday afternoons are not the time to go if you're trying to relax. The tables are full, the conversations are loud, and there are people in every nook and cranny -- except my favorite spot to hide (right between the poetry and western sections). At least I had that one getaway.
Found myself wondering if e.e. cummings was actually just a poet who happened to be bad with a typewriter. [Is that the literary equivalent of blasphemy?] I mean, his stuff is great fun to read, but he can make you dizzy as well.
I think it's time for some dinner and perhaps "Casino Royale."
Yes.
Today's Yahoo! Horoscope for Taurus: Be careful with other people, today -- someone you'll be dealing with has a very sensitive ego and they will be almost eager to get defensive. So when they do something you don't like or that isn't good enough, be careful about blurting out what you really think right away. Instead, try to come up with a way to deliver your critique in a very sensitive, supportive way. The extra effort you make in communicating with them will pay off when they don't waste your time throwing a tantrum.
