Good Day

“It’s been a good day. It’s been a very good day.” As my roommate, and good friend, John Deniston can attest, those exact words just issued from my mouth. I’m sitting here, listening to Remy Zero, soaking in the moment, reflecting on one of the more enjoyable days that I’ve had in a long time. I woke up naturally around 8am this morning despite staying up late last night, and completely ignoring the fact that I had absolutely nothing to do until about noon decided to go ahead and get up. I used that time to finish my book over the NSA, which I will hopefully be posting a review of soon. Then I ran down to Ralphs and picked up some Bratwursts for lunch. Following lunch, I made my way down to the beach for the annual Campus Ministries sponsored “Fun in the sun day.” This is where throngs of Pepperdine students storm tower 12 at Zuma beach with fervor rivaling that of the allies in Normandy. On the way down to the beach I gave a ride to three girls I hadn’t ever met before, but were looking for a ride. You just gotta love how that works out here. Heading back from the beach I had my former roommate turned RA Ryan Harvey with me when he received a phone call inviting us to join some other friends up at Dresher for some steaks. So, we swung by Ralphs, picked up a healthy sized porterhouse, and as luck would have it Ralphs now carries Stubbs marinade, and had it on sale today. I’ve had a number of very fine steaks in my life, but this one certainly ranks high up on the list. I returned back to my ocean view apartment in Malibu, California (Lovernich A36, just sounds so much more impressive when called an ocean view Malibu apartment) to find that I had an email waiting for me from a woman whom I have been conversing with about buying a TV saying that she has everything ready, and wondered if we would like to pick it up Monday. I’ll save the whole TV story for a post when we actually have it, but it’s been an interesting process. Well, I know that this is one of the less interesting, controversial, or eloquently spoken posts that I’ve ever had, but I’m just feeling good right now and felt like sharing. I will be reformatting my computer tomorrow prior to selling it so I may be out of communication for the next week or so until I get a new one. Have a wonderful Labor Day weekend!
