Yah, I know you're jealous! So I don't think lately I have written a long post about my ventures. Well, I don't know if this will be one of those... but I'll try until I get ADD. I'll start it off by ANOTHER run in with the police. Those stories get everyone's attention. Now you have heard about last St. Paddy's day. (Cop ride home anyone? Just realized I never blogged THAT one). Also the Howard Street event. A while back was the trucking over the grass story. You might have missed the story about Violated a Red Light ON FOOT. (I don't remember if I blogged that one.) Let's see... the rest have been a little low key stories. Friday night wasn't too bad. I was just "resting my eyes" on the beach and all of a sudden I heard noise blah blah blah... I really didn't make it out the first time as I was a little... ummm... incoherent. So I said, "I'm sorry, pardon?" The reply back from a megaphone out of the truck with spot lights shining on me said, "The beach is closed. You need to leave." I popped up (I was by myself out there after a few yes I'll admit it) and swayed a little bit, almost ate it in the sand and b-lined it back to our place. As I was walking I noticed that the truck had Police down the side. Good thing I'm a graceful kid and didn't topple over or the outcome might be a little different. :o)
Last night I went to the Street Fair in Orange. I met up with a friend from work at her house about a mile from the circle. We had our own little possy. 10 of us biked down there. It was comical. 5 beach cruisers, 2 mountain bikes, a tiny boy's street bike, and two low riders with banana seats. One time I almost broke out in song because it seemed like the scene in the Sound of Music. The Street Fair was pretty cool. I was a little clueless that it's all food and drinking. The highlight... well you RB people will understand. I walked up to the funnel booth that Orange Assembly was running and there was a monster line and said to them, while holding my beer, "Would it be poor form to ask if a Majority member could jump the line?" Yah, I walked away with funnel cake. Don't worry, I paid an extra buck for it because I know it goes for a good cause.
So that was my Saturday night. Today was pretty fun too. And I'm sure you are wondering why my butt hurts. (I'm sorry if you didn't, but too bad, you made it this far.) Heidi and I went on another bike ride. We rode down the beach the the Long Beach Aquarium. It was good times, a little crowded, but a lot of fun. I touched a lot of slimey things. I also joined as a member and got one comp pass so speak up if you want to go! So two bike rides equal a sore ass. Oh yah baby. Can anyone remedy that for us? No I don't mean like message or anything, just a solition? Yes Nicole, I have my cool bike pants still, I just don't want Heidi to be left out.
Tonight is chill. Tomorrow we are planning on going on a hike somewhere. Woo hoo. ;o) It shall be fun. Good night all and I hope to be updating more often so stay tuned. Cheers.
