Did Nothing

I was hoping to have tons to write about today since I had so much planned for the weekend. For example, I was suppsoed to go salsa dancing on Friday night, but that didn't happen. I was supposed to go rowing on Saturday morning but that didn't happen either. I literally ended up accomplishing nothing this weekend.

So Friday night, yeah, my toe was still killing me. I suffered all day, hoping I'd be able to go Friday night, but no, I couldn't. I stayed in and relaxed and watched TV. Boooo. I'll have to write about salsa dancing some other time then.

On Saturday morning, I set my alarm (on a saturday morning) and woke up at 6AM. I got ready and left the house and got to the lake by 7AM. I was at the right place, the right time and everything, but no one was there. I did see a few boats out on the lake (and it looked like they were having a great time rowing), but no one was at the dock. I later found out that the rowing club had a race that day in Rhode Island and as a result, they started earlier that morning. So I missed out on rowing. So I went home dejected. I was supposed to have brunch with a friend in Boston, but I fell asleep on the couch as result of having woken up so early. So that didn't happen either.

Now here is a point where I could have been productive. I recently had my car's brakes changed and inspected, blah blah, but the tires still needed to be aligned and rotated. I could have gone to the tire shop and gotten all that done Saturday afternoon since it was free. Hell, I could have even read a book, gone over some research stuff, learned some SAS programming, read about biostatistics, etc. But no, I did nothing. I watched TV all day. And since nothing is on on Saturday afternoon, I ended up watching stuff on the Food network. Luckily, there were a few episodes of the Mythbusters, which I always enjoy.

On Sunday, I did have lunch with a few friends, celebrating someone's birthday. Afterwards, I relaxed, giving up on being productive over the weekend. Once I gave in, I enjoyed being lazy.

Today, I was at the library, learning some SAS programming and doing some preliminary work on my research project (due August 25th!!). Plus, I got my car all set, and got organized a little bit more. So all in all, today was pretty good. But I need to make up for this past weekend.

So to summarize what I am planning for the next few weeks: GYM!!, rowing, salsa dancing, swing dancing (Finally!), and RESEARCH.

On a side note, tomorrow, I will be seeing the Dark Knight on IMAx. That's gonna be absolutely awesome, I'm very much looking forward to it.
