Ack, August is almost over!

I realized just now that I haven't had a single post for all of August. It's not that I haven't been doing anything, it's more that I've just been too lazy to record the things I have been doing. And what have I been doing, you ask? Well here's the shakedown:

I went to VA Beach this past weekend with my former roommate and her son. We camped out and had a grand old time swimming in the Chesapeake Bay, getting burned, visiting the aquarium, and interacting with the folks at the campground. Such lovely, lovely folks. It really was a fantastic weekend and I can barely keep my eyes open at work today.

I've been riding my bike a fair bit lately. This is the bike I bought with my own hard-earned Dairy Queen money when I was 14 or 15. It's a Moongoose Switchback that needed a fair bit of work done on it since it's been hanging in my parents' garage for at least 10 years. It's not the greatest bike in the world, but it has been fun to mix up the exercise a bit. I've been riding it to the Metro once a week or so instead of taking the bus, and that's been fun as well.

Pinchloaf and I have been frantically watching the US version of The Office. I'm not really sure why I wasn't watching it before, but we're almost done with season 3. The episode where Phyllis gets married is almost more uncomfortable than any episode of the British version, and that's saying a lot. It's pretty freaking awesome though. As all of you are probably already aware.

So that's the big things that spring to mind right away. Yep, nothing too exciting. Just...doing the usual stuff.

So apparently our trip to the beach didn't merit noting as something that happened in August? My birthday? Le sigh.

Wednesday night?

Ooohhhh yeah...it is worth noting, except that apparently I have the attention span of a flea. Sorry. :(

I know exactly what you mean about "uncomfortable" and The Office... the British version of the show (expecially the later seasons) made me extremely uncomfortable to watch in the same way that Michael loudly dragging the wheelchair down the aisle at Phyliss' wedding made me uncomfortable. The US version has really turned into a great show in its own right, which I didn't think was possible when I watched the first few episodes of the first season.
