Lazy Days…

Well, I am really in summer mode now.  I went golfing with Jim (Erin’s dad), Bill, Rick, and Glen (Erin’s uncles) Monday night.  We only played 9 holes.  It was a lot of fun.  I enjoy golfing.  Mostly be cause I am outside walking around.  There is of course the sport of it, but I am pretty laid back when it comes to the rules on golfing.  My cohorts were a tad more restrictive when it came to the rules.  Like when I tee-off, and it goes flying into the woods and have to get another ball and tee-off again.  I wouldn’t count the first one because, well, I can’t find that ball, and I’m starting from the same place there is no need to count it right??  :)  So out of the five of us Jim came in first and I came in last.  The other brothers were interspersed in between. 

Right after the game, Jim and I raced home to catch game seven of the Stanley cup finals.  Edmonton vs. Carolina.  Jim and I were rooting for Edmonton because really should a place that far south have a hockey team let alone win the cup?  Well Edmonton really didn’t play well the first two periods.  They turned it up a notch in third, but it wasn’t enough.  They ended up losing 3 to 1 after Carolina scored an empty net goal with less than a minute to play.

Unlike a normal summer day for me today I got up at 8:30 in the morning.  I
think it was partly the sun shinning in the window onto my face, and
the fact that I really needed a shower.  :)  After the golfing and the hockey game I was wiped out, and crashed.  So I felt all grimy when I woke up this morning.  So I got up and played a little nintindo.  That’s the thing to do these days.  After that I watched “A history of violence” which was kind of an interesting movie.  I had never seen it before, and would recommend it if you don’t mind a little violence, and are into movies that are a little different.  After the movie I was sufficiently awake, so I hopped in the shower and got cleaned up.  Then it was back to the nintindo.  My goal while Erin is gone is to beat Super Mario 3 with out warping.  I beat it last week with warping, so now I am trying to go through all of the levels and beat the game.  I had a great start a couple days ago.. Actually before the golf game, but I paused the game while the golfing and the hockey game were going on.  I didn’t want to stay up late playing, so I left it when I went to bed.  Unfortunately the power went off for a split second in the middle of the night, and the game was reset.  So I started over again today.  I got all the way to the last world, and stopped to eat dinner.  Someone must have bumped the console because the game got corrupted, and I had to reset it again.  :(  So for real tomorrow I am going to beat that game.  I have to get a lot of rest.  It takes a lot out of you to sit down and play all of those levels back to back. 

So I guess thats the plan for tomorrow.  Play nintendo, watch movies, and possibly take a trip into town to find a high speed Internet connection to do some software updates and download something for work.
