365 Days, I Really Love You So 

Yes, I Love Egg. But yesterday (Tuesday) was also the one-year anniversary of the 2nd time I came home from the hospital, i.e., the last time I came home from the hospital. I have been hospital free for one year!

Around lunchtime Carrie called me and said I had two choices: I could come pick her up and bring her home and we could scrounge for lunch, or I could come down and the two of us could join Steph, Christine, Katie Stricker, and Katie F. for Chinese food. Katie F was leaving for the airport at like 3:00 that afternoon, so it would be our last chance to hang out with her.

Needless to say, we got in Steph's car with her and Katie F and went out to Chinese, at this place on 6th Ave that we've driven by countless times without much noticing. It is very classy inside, and the lunch specials are all under $6! I had chow mein with beef, chicken, shrimp, and what tasted like scallops. Carrie had chicken with a black bean sauce. The meals came with soup, rice, and an egg roll, too! Plus, the waitress brought us a plate of fried chicken on the house! 'Twas a good time, 'twas. They deliver, and they're a lot cheaper than ordering pizza.

Carrie went back to work and I came home and worked for a bit before picking Carrie up again. We ate our leftovers for dinner, and at 7:15 I left for capoeira in the park. Jefferson Park. On the way I stopped at Bartell's and bought a bottle of Gatorade®. I arrived at the same time as the girl Cory (Cori? Corri? Korri? Kory? Sp?) and in fact parked right behind her. We walked to the center of the park and waited to spot the other peoples. While we waited, we were amused by the high number of dogs running around. In particular there was a big, labrador-sized dog playing with a tiny terrier-sized dog that was very cute.

Eventually we spotted other people way in the opposite corner of the park from where we parked, so we walked over and joined them and did capoeira. There was Steph, Katie Striker, Jimmy, and a guy named Peter. For the last 15-20 minutes I was feeling really light-headed. I thought I'd eaten enough leftovers; I was plenny full and everything.

I drove home and hung out with my wife and watched a season 2 episode of Veronica Mars.

Did I mention that on Sunday I borrowed back the Nintendo 64 from my brother? I can't remember if I mentioned it or not. At any rate, Carrie and I also played some Mario Kart 64. It's really, really weird to play it. It all kinda comes back to you after a few minutes, but the controls are really, really strange. Not nearly as responsive as the Double Dash or DS controls. We played through Star and Speical cup, having played through Mushroom and Flower cups the night before. Then we shut down the house and went to bed.
