my weekend

Went to Galveston with my roommates Saturday afternoon, a spur of the moment decision. We walked on the beach and got our feet wet and sandy. We drove around for a little while looking for the Strand (a few blocks of touristy shops). I think we went in a circle around it. We went through the human-size maze, where you have to find four goals -- my roommates each finished in 10-15 minutes; I gave up after 26 without finding the last goal. The partitions are made of wood and are moved around from time to time. We had a nice dinner at an Italian place before heading home.

Sunday evening we watched "A Beautiful Mind", which one of my roommates had been particularly anxious to see before it left theaters. I enjoyed it; I'm glad she kept after me to go watch it.

Yesterday afternoon I went swimming. I did six not-quite-laps: not quite the length of the apartment swimming pool and back. The first two were an attempt at freestyle, the next three doggy paddle, and the last backstroke. I had to stop and rest for a minute after each one. That reminded me of my grandfather taking a walk. I am appalled at how out of shape I am.

Earlier yesterday afternoon, I wrote in my real diary for the first time since January. It felt like such a relief. I should do that more often.
