Not bad... for last year.
Sep. 19th, 2008 11:09 pmI had a decent, though not spectacular night tonight: 155, 168, 167. That would have been around average last year, but since I've had such a good start to the year, I never actually hit my average all night. :( Three splits in the first five frames of the first game will do that...
We won two of the three games, but lost on total pinfall so we only got two out of a possible four points. We had been second going into tonight, but will likely drop. Not that that's terribly meaningful after three weeks.
I managed to get into work a bit earlier than I have been today, but still not early enough to catch the bus up Industrial Parkway. My hips are not pleased with the amount of walking I've had to do. My boss suggested that we petition the city to extend one of the side streets that runs off of Yonge over to Industrial. I don't think they would do that just for me (as nice as that would be ;) ), but there does seem to be a lot of development going on in that area so they may consider it worthwhile. I'm sure it wouldn't happen immediately, though, despite the relatively short distance they would have to pave. Also, I'll have to remember on Monday to check out the place in the next building down - it's an organic grocery, IIRC. I wonder if they sell sandwiches and stuff there - it would be good to save myself the long walk over to Yonge Street every day (and back) at lunchtime. Otherwise, I may just have to cave and start taking a lunch to work with me, or maybe grabbing a sub or something on my way into work in the morning to put in the fridge. I hate eating at my desk, though - I consider it healthy to get outside for some air. I just don't consider it healthy to feel like I've run a marathon. Especially on days like today, where it's too cool for a light jacket, but not really cool enough for my leather jacket. I probably made a poor impression on our clients this morning, who were visiting for a meeting when I arrived.
The other weird thing about that area is that there are at least three martial arts dojos within about 100 metres of each other.
I am glad, however, that the bus back over to Yonge is running again when I leave work. Both last night and tonight, however, the driver almost didn't stop for me. Last night, when I got on the bus, I was the only passenger, and the driver said, "I don't think I've ever picked anyone up at that stop before." Which explains, I suppose, why there's no bus service between 9am and 3pm.
I have a whole whack of things that I need to get done tomorrow (and they have to be done tomorrow due to my not being home for most of Sunday morning/afternoon), so this may end up being an early night. (Gasp! The horror!) One of them is that I've been meaning to call about an appointment for a haircut - it's getting rather desperate - but I never remember when I'm actually at a computer and can look up the phone number. Or if I do, it's at a time like this, when it's nearly 11:30 at night. But that's nothing new - I'm constantly remembering about things I need to do when I'm in no position to actually do them. (I wonder if this is a symptom of early senility...) Sometimes I put a reminder in my PDA and set the alarm, but half the time when I do that, I'm still not in a position to be able to get whatever it is done when the alarm goes off. I wonder how common that is.
