Ready for the weekend

Seems like this week just flew by. Tonight we will be going to see the new movie "Balls of Fury", should be a good time. I also plan on doing some skateboarding and will be trying not to hurt myself. Last night I skated my longboard under the West Seattle Bridge. No photos sorry. It was a good time.
I am getting more stable and Love the Section 9 board I got for $30 on craigslist.

Just for those counting I now have 3 boards, 2 street and 1 longboard. All purchased from craigslist and total cost $50. I also bought new wheels and bearings for one of the boards at a cost of $56. So my new hobby still has cost me less than the complete boards I was looking at when I first looked into this sport. I need some new bushings for one of my street boards, but aside from that they are all functioning. Not too bad and I have been getting out of the house.

I have been looking at the Insect boards , I like the Surf Bug. I don't think I need a new board, but its okay too look.

Long Weekend

Looks like we will be heading to the Folklife festival after I get off work for the start to our long weekend. My wife wants to look for some art for our bare wall in the living room. I know the excitement never stops.

Tomorrow we should be heading out to see our friends the Sugar Skulls open the show at Nuemo's. They are playing with Sleepytime Gorilla Museum and Pleaseesaur (not sure about that spelling). Should be a good time. The rest of the weekend will be spent in quite contemplation.

The long weekend is sort of a double edged sword. I get excited and when it starts its great. The second day is great as well, but I can feel something is amiss. The third morning even better, but I don't want it to end. Then when I return to work, I realize I have an extra day's worth of stuff to do, and one less day in the week to do it. It can set the balance off for months. Right about when its back to normal, another one arrives. crazy, I know.
