Memorial Day

Veloster

I went to test drive the Hyundai Veloster today. It is a nice car. I'm not sure if I want to get it though. I want to look at some more cars before I make my decision.

The dealer I went to today tried to give it to me up the pooper. I'll be going over the hill to see if I can't get a better deal.

The Word

I went to my mom's church for Bible study tonight. It was okay. I'm not used to that style of teaching. It was a little light on scripture. I prefer lots of scripture. It's the only part of going to church I love. Reading God's word.

Time for another car.

My car just died for the final time. I will have to get another car this weekend. I can't do anything without a car.

My oil thingee busted and I don't have circulating on my engine parts. If I drive this car any further, I will kill the engine for good. Dang. Makes me wish I had sold this car a year ago instead of holding on to it. You snooze you lose.

Battleship

I went to see Battleship today. It was a decent movie. It wasn't as good as The Avengers but it was entertaining.

It looks like there will be many great movies this summer. I've got at least five on my list of must sees.

Bowling

I went out tonight with a couple of folks from my meetup group. We had fun. I discovered I don't like bowling and pool is only fun when I'm playing someone I can't play.

Sadly, I don't have pictures of my meal or any of our games.

Untitled

As you can see from the number of pictures I have on my blog, I spend a lot of time in my car. I don't have anything to blog about. I've been unmotivated to do much of anything.

Happy Mother's Day

Santa Monica

I took my mom trikking at the beach in Santa Monica. Not the best bike lane for riding. There were too many people walking on the bike lanes.

Then we had lunch at BP Oysterette. I had the grilled hangar steak and my mom had the lobster mac and cheese. With much regret, I did not get a picture of my steak and I suppose it was because it wasn't much to look at but it sure was good. My mom's lobster Mac and cheese wasn't that great but I has something to do with the fact that I don't like paste and I'm not a fan of lobster. Sadly, I didn't get pics of her food either.

After finishing my steak I found myself still hungry, so I ordered a side of garlic spinach. It was good much like my steak. I'll have to eat there again so I can take pictures of my meal.

We were enemies

Gaining weight

I was 119 pounds this past Thursday, today I'm 124 pounds. That's five pounds in six days. I'm hoping this is just that time of the month weight.

I shouldn't be gaining weight so quickly because I had a bout of food poisoning or something and have been running to the bathroom a lot since Sunday morning. Saturday was spring tea at my church and the menu was not primal at all.

That rice looking stuff is quinoa with raisins. It wasn't good. There was more bread that meat on the sandwich. The whole meal was cold. I prefer my meals to taste like it had once had a pulse.

I want to say it was incorporating the grains and gluten into my diet that got my tummy upset but I won't know anything until I get a chance to see the ladies tomorrow. If they had the same issues then I can say it was the food.

Opening weekend

I'll never go see another movie on opening weekend. They told us to be at the theatre an hour and a half before the movie started. So we ended up standing in line forever. Ave gets better be good.

Happy Cinco de Mayo

Asking God

One of the hardest things to do is to rely on someone else. I didn't grow up with much family around, do I learned from an early age if my mom or my dad couldn't help me, I was on my own. I wish I had known about God when I was younger. I probably would have learned how to rely on Him to do the things I needed help with.

The good news is, I have Him now and I can turn to Him and ask him for anything I want (or need). I'm going to be honest though, I still forget to go to Him first. Now the good news, He's very forgiving and it is never too late to put all my trust in Him. I'm going to bed now.

Proverbs

I made the decision to write out the book of Proverbs. Not sure what I'll accomplish, but I noticed when I wrote out Romans, I meditated more on the text. I noticed things that I wouldn't have noticed during my normal reading.

I don't have much to say. That's been my issue for a while now. I'm going to bed. Good night.
