Memorial Day Anime

IT'S 8 am on a sunday. Last week I woke up at 10am, which was the earliest I had gotten up this year. Today, on a 3 day weekend I am up at 8. I've been up for fifteen minutes texting co-workers about the weather. I hate texting, getting up before noon on the weekend, and weather in general. So what is it that has gotten me so far off of the norm? Biking. For the past month or so we've been trying to get together on Thursday to go biking after work. We went the first week and rode 13 miles. I was good for about 6 of them. The rest sucked, as I am very out of shape. I bought a new bike before that. Since then, I have acquired gloves, a helmet, a camelbak, shoes not boots, and basic cycling tools. Since then, it has rained every Thursday. I've done some riding myself, but on Friday we decided that we'd meet at 9 this morning at Creve Ceour lake and go for a ride. Now it's raining. We're gonna hold off an hour and then meet. If there's rain, then we'll go to Denny's.

In lieu of this suckyness, I think I'm going to watch Gantz all the way through. The Anime is only 26 episodes at 1/2 an hour each, so it'll take about 13 hours. That is, if I can get the second season back from Rufus. I also just found out that the manga (printed version) extended much farther than the original. I'm going to have to track that down!

Have a sober memorial day. Take a minute to think about how blessed you are to be an American. If you are. and if not, think about how blessed you are that we haven't bombed your country yet.

Cheers,
The Captain
