This weekend was pretty busy. Well, just Friday and Saturday.

Friday, after work, I went home and relaxed for a bit knowing that at about 7:30 P.M I would be watching a Bakersfield Blaze game. I had never been, but my best friend invited me, so I naturally agreed. My girlfriend was going to dinner with her friend, which is also my best friends' girlfriend. (confusing?) Well, I hadn't realized that the field was right next to Strambler Park. So, we bought some tickets for $5 to sit in the bleachers and after sitting on those things for about 5 minutes, my "sitting equipment" started to hurt. Then, this girl on the staff came over and took my friend's and my name down for a contest to get better seats, so we gave her our names. Now, we thought we were just going to move to a seat with a backrest, but when we won, we ended up getting two leather recliners right behind home plate complete with a waitress service! It was awesome!

We (Blaze) ended up winning the game. It was a complete shut-out. After that, my friend and I were feeling pretty good and I remembered my friend was celebrating her birthday that night, so we met up at her house. We arrived and hung out for about 5 minutes, then decided to relocate to Fishlips. I had never been there, so I thought, why not? That night was so much fun. There was a band playing and alcohol flowing. I'm not a big drinker, but you would've had a different impression if you were hanging out with me that night. It wasn't out of hand or anything. It was just a good time meeting new people over some drinks. My friend and I ended up leaving the place a t 2 A.M. and got home at about 3 A.M.

My girlfriend called me at 6:50 A.M. to remind me that we are supposed to be leaving for the beach in 10 minutes!!! TEN MINUTES!!!! I hadn't even changed out of my clothes from the night before! Even though I was dead tired, I told her to give me about 30 minutes to get ready (anything for my girl). Four of us went to the beach that Saturday (I drove), her brother, brother's girlfriend, and the two of us. I have to admit, it was a good time at the beach. Well, we spent the whole day at Pismo, got home at about 10:30 P.M., and knocked out until this morning! Well, not really, but I could've slept all Sunday. Really, we just hung out at home all Sunday relaxing. Overall, pretty good weekend. I still can't believe I survived the day at the beach though. Whew!
