Car free days 18 & 19

Day 18 was a typical trip into work. During lunch, however, I went with a couple co-workers down into Portland to the food carts for lunch, where I had a schnitzelwich. Then, after work, I rode the train over to a friend's house for movie night, where we watched Goldfinger, my first James Bond movie ever. I then proceeded to forget my laptop bag at his place. Then, day 19 rolled around, and I had the day off. I ended up breaking one of the rules and driving to Soba to get a delicious Beef Teriyaki bowl with friends, and stopped by my friend's house to pick up my bag.

Car free day 11

Day 11 started off like any normal transit riding day. After work, however, I was in a little bit of a rush, though, because movie night started at 6PM, so I had a lot of ground to cover. I quickly walked the 1+ mile to the train station, hopped on the train to my place. Then I hopped off, got to my place, changed, grabbed a 6-pack of beer (Full Sail's Wassail), and headed off to my friend's place. I made it there a few minutes late (thanks to the train running a few minutes late itself), but not very much so. We watched Unbreakable and Strange Brew, ate pizza, and drank various kinds of beer. Then I took the train back to my place. All in all, a really good night.

10/6/2010 Cleanup

This evening will be consumed by me cleaning up the main level of my apartment, so that it is at least marginally clean for movie night on Thursday night. On the tele will be Hackers, a wonderful 15 year old movie about computer hackers. The characters are laughingly one-dimensional, and what the computers are doing is completely laughable for the period this movie takes place in. It should be a good time.

On the TV I've been watching Doctor Who, slowly working my way through all of the modern seasons. I'm up to the beginning of season 4.
