So. Um.

In the absence of Lisa, I spent most of the day plaing UT2k4 or SWG.

Yeah. I'm pretty much the quintessential guy in the basement right now. But at least it's not my parent's basement. Though, at least I had fun. And, in my defense, I'm going up to my grandparents to have an early dinner/late lunch type thing and be social/familial, so that does count for something, right?

( Minor SWG geekout )

Finally, in the sappy part, I love you, Lisa, even though you probably won't read this for awhile. But that's okay. Because every day with you /is/ Valentine's day, in the sense that I love you, and want to make you feel special every time I am thinking of you.

It's been a nice afternoon at my grandparents. Granma made Swiss steak and salad, we spent time talking about stuff and how my job search was going, I showed them how to use their cell phone again, and as an added bonus, Lisa managed to get online, so we're talking for a little bit, and then my grandparents want to give me a slice of cake before I go home.

(Warning: On my way home I'm getting gas and groceries. It is entirely possible that I may give in and buy some candy. Candy will be DOOM. But I may do it anyhow.)

My woman is both evil and persistant. It's great.

Driving into the twilight makes you go past the horizon.

Trust me. If you don't believe me, go to a country road and do it. You'll see.

As to the store? I was good! I behaved! I bought 90% needed foodstuffs, not candy. For candy, I only bought 1 small Russel Stover Sampler Heart (hey, it was on sale for $1!), and while I was SORELY tempted to grab the Alternator Sideswipe someone had left near the end of the Wal-mart checkout line, I resisted.

The 20 pound handweights on the clearance shelf near the milk, however, I was not able to resist. $5 a barbell, baby. And while the 10 pounders are great, I was starting to feel less and less like I was pushing for the workout, and more like it was just routine. I'm hoping that I'll get that push back with these, because I want to push. I want to find and go past my limits, and use that to help getting into shape.

And now, I write on a story for Lisa, and I'll go working on until I finish a bit more, and then work out on the new weights.
