So! A week late, but we managed to watch The Pacific during reruns on HBO last night.
( The end of The Pacific or: Leckie proves it is possible to live happily ever after by never ever taking no for an answer. )
In any case, non-Pacific-related news! Because I know I'm just off in my own corner squeeing about that one. I am going to see the Jonas Brothers again! They're coming to Tampa with Demi Lovato and the cast of Camp Rock 2 in October and I totally have a ticket. Woo, yes. I know I'm the only one who thinks this is a good idea, but too bad for all of you. I AM EXCITE. :D
I also have a sad tale of woe from yesterday. So I decided to go running after work, that's normal. I start, it's like 6:20, 6:30, and the sky to the north looks a little dark but not too bad... then I hear thunder-like-rumbling, but it doesn't seem so bad and I think the storm is still going to skate to the north of Gainesville so I keep going. About two miles in, THERE IS SUDDENLY LIGHTNING. Lots of it. D: I'm still at least half a mile from home, so I bust my butt to get back there. No rain yet, but the whole wind-whipping thunder-rumbling lighing-flashing thing is going on all around me. I decide that hey, the apartment complex has a gym, I really hate running inside but I'll go run the other four miles on the treadmill, okay? So I head over there, it's starting to rain a little, but okay. I'm going to be there for a bit, I'll be fine. I get going, a minute and a half in...
Lightning strikes and the power goes out. D: NO TREADMILL. The power comes back on a minute later, but the treadmill seems to have had it and refuses to restart. I decide that I am doomed and run through the increasing rainfall back to my building, just in time to miss the TORRENTS OF RAIN oh and ALSO HAIL. I haven't seen hail since... I left Illinois, I think. o.O;
Anyway, I still have four miles to run before the weekend is out, but since I'm going to watch a movie tonight I suppose it'll have to be tomorrow. The problem is I generally wait until 6:30 or 7 so there's no direct sunlight, because it's gotten HOT outside during the day (80s, sometimes low 90s). So supposedly tomorrow evening, I'll give it a go. Also, I need to get back on my situp routine, I've been avoiding that for two weeks, not a good idea. XD;
Okay, that's about it... Gonna head off and write some tags before I head home to feed the cat and put things away before movie night. I've got a couple memes I'm working to fill out, so expect more from me soon. I hope~
