July minutiae

by · August 1, 2010

I realized this morning that I didn’t post my minutiae from July. That’s easy to forget when your work station looks like this:

But, promises are promises, and I told myself I would post this tripe every month. So, hereya go.

Exercise: After a couple months of laziness, I got back to something resembling healthy. I only spent the past week, but I got a few miles in on the the track, and five consecutive days of workouts. So, I’ve got that going for me…

Freelance writing: I had way too much work to do in July to focus on some of my personal goals. Yes, that’s en excuse.

Books read: Lost Vegas; Cat’s Cradle

Movie’s watched: Step Brothers; In the Loop

Documentaries watched: Queen: Making of a Night at the Opera; Aileen: Life and Death of a Serial Killer; When You’re Strange; Pressure Cooker; We Live in Public; Buy the Ticket, Take the Ride

Best meal(s): Bonita Michoacan in Las Vegas

Travel days: 18

Disc golf rounds: 2 (but I broke my person best record at Century Park!)

Poker: I spent exactly zero hours playing online, and had the best live poker month of my life after a nice little score in Vegas and a good cash game run. I’m back to having a profitable year…which is nice.

And now back go my regularly scheduled beach laziness.

    Otis, speaking of disk golf, what about the nut case in your neck of the woods that got arrested for chasing disk golfers with a chainsaw??
    What a whack job!

    Oh great, now I have to go check out Bonita Michoacan. I’ve driven past many times, but never gone in. Guess it’s heading to the top of the list. (I’ll send you my Weight Watchers bill)
