For not having plans boy was I busy.


Waking up Sunday morning I figured this was going to be a boring day of sitting on my ass doing nothing. Which really I would have been fine with; I am sometimes very ok with relaxing days with nothing planned. What makes those days even better is when you are surprised and end up being very active. Around 12:45ish Xena calls and asks if I would like to go to brunch. I think sure what the hell. I was actually changing to hit the gym but thought this would be more interesting. We were meeting some friends of a friend of hers at the Aristocrat. I had never had a brunch there and now I know why. It wasn't terrible but as Xena put it we should never do brunch at a place that only does brunch one day a week and only for a few hours. I understand with an odd menu for the wait staff and the kitchen making life hell for them so our service suffered. The food was ok. I ordered a crab cake Benedict. Like eggs Benedict but instead of Canadian bacon put a crab cake in place of it. On retrospect I should have ordered the Belgian waffles. The company was very nice I actually knew one of the people from band. I had never really talked to him before so this was nice to actually get to know him better. The other person was very funny and nice; she is also an orchestra director, which I thought was cool.

On my drive up to the restaurant I was thinking that I would pop into Luna to do a little shopping for CDs. It's terrible I have this eclectic taste in music and as a result I never have a lot of any one thing or genre. There is so much music from my high school days and college days that I just don't own so I am trying to rectify that by pursuing the used CD bins. Alas today was not going to be one of those days. I ended up purchasing unused CDs but I am very happy with what I got. Xena actually made the suggestion to go record shopping after brunch so I was pleased and said of course.

After we left Luna we decided to walk around Broad Ripple. Of course it got hot and I was sweating like a whore on nickel night. We stopped at Starbucks and foolishly I ordered a green tea Frap I say foolishly because I know better. Those things never taste like they should because they are sugared to high heaven. Don't get me wrong that can be fine from time to time but sometimes it would be nice it they were a bit lighter. Ah well. While walking Xena said that she had decided to become like me "asexual" I had to explain that I was not asexual and that my porn viewing habits could prove that. I was more chaste than anything else and I had that chastity thrust upon me, not chosen. Yea about that I am not really sure what is wrong with me in that department I can't seem to get dates to last more than 1 or 2 and then I never hear from them again so I get a bit scared and decide not to even ask people I truly like. So that fucked up tale of my life can be saved for another time. Meanwhile back at the ranch. We walked around a bit and she wanted to go to a movie so we hop over to Glendale and watch "Balls of Fury" Save your money even for a stupid comedy it's not that great. I have nothing else to say about that portion of my day.

We decided to go home nap and get something to eat and then meet up at Gregs later that night to play some darts. We met around 10 and FN Joined us for about an hour and we played several games and it was good times. I really expected the place to be more crowded since most everyone had Monday off but it was pretty dead. After a couple of drinks we call it a night and head home. All in all a good day without even planning it.
