Light My Fire

my mom informed me a couple days ago about how she was planning on heading down to SF to visit my grandma who had some sort of surgery thursday.i guess she took the day off and was planning on spending all of friday down there doing i dunno what, the plan was for her to take my bro and sis for the day and i would basically have the day and evening to myself. but of course, things changed and my brother was invited to a LAN arty, and my mom decided not to take him down. so.. .suddenly i had only the evening to myself.... so i made an executive decision, packed up all my laptop gear and stuff and took off to roam Petaluma. at first i was in search of free internet.. butwhen i realized that i cant even connect to my own freakin wireless network.... i had little hope of connecting to a random one.

i eventually decided to find a nice vantage point and settle in to write up that soc paper thats been looming over my head. but just as i started to think about it, and i started talking to a friend about the topic... who should sign on for the second time this week? but ene. RENE? yes..... rene. she wanted to know what i was doing tonight. just my luck. NOTHING. yay! so we quickly made some half-baked plan to go see the incredibles..... except it was anything but quick. its sort of hard for her to stay on topic and our conversation, as a result, was pretty scattered. but we eventually came to the conclusion that she would (maybe bring johnny) and meet me in mill valley and from there we would make our way to a theater of some sort. but, as it turned out, she was way ahead and i was way behind and we ended up converging upon novato instead. where there is a theater. and a restaurant.

so we ate at the restaurant, Moylans... and micro brew/sports bar/restaurant that i went to last year for my birthday..... i think. and the theater was conveniently across the street. this was the same theater at which i saw "sharks tale"... and just as it was when i saw sharks tale, it was frightningly abandoned. we got there about 30 minutes early and waited (alone) out in the lobby. we then went into the theater and sat alone for another 10-15 minutes before other human life decided to join us. i dunno wtf is wrong with that theater.... but there is never anyone there anymore.... its creepy. so yeah.. i think today was the last of my birthday dinners. ive had i think 5 now. and i only had to pay for one of them.... lacey treated me to Baker's Square last friday. i had a chicken ceasar Pita. on the tuesday before, melissa and i studied at Carows and she bought my dinner after realizing she missed my borthday. my family all went out to eat on the day of. and of course on saturday was the big dinner/movie thing with friends. which brings me to today when rene made up for missing the afore mentioned dinner and movie.

one of the things i wanted to do most for my birthday was to spend quality time with my friends... and i think ive achieved that goal pretty well. thanks everyone, again.

anyways, about tonight, rene and i saw the incredibles. yes, i saw it last weekend, but she still hadnt and its still prolly the best movie going.... for those of you who dont knwo her... .theres a pic in the moblog. anyways, after the movie we left the theater and, as if on cue, it began to rain. so we ran to her car and discussed what we were gonna do next. we eventually came to the conclusion that we would do nothing more. so we sat there for a good half our or so just talking about random (and i mean RANDOM) crap. it was awesome fun... but i had to let her go as she had an almost one hour drive ahead of her and she was tired and sick. anyways, i better wrap this up before it gets out of hand.... so... the end
