Mini Roadtrip

Just came back from a little trek out to Santa Barbara, CA with Vicky to visit a friend in for work. The drive there was dark and full of traffic, but the afternoon drive back down the 101 and CA1 was scenic and beautiful. Funny, because just yesterday I was griping about how much I hated California because of many-a-factor and then California throws this little spitball in my face as if to say, 'Ahem. You meant to say you hate Los Angeles. Because so do I.'

Anyway, I am in a pretty good mood right now watching Vick sleep and getting ready to head out to watch the Bears play the Dolphins on Thursday Night Football at a local dive called the Foxfire Room. Looking forward to adding another local haunt to my bar radar.

Been pretty much sans any physical activity for the past month and I am really beginning to feel it yet I am also not inclined to go out running or play basketball or even toss a baseball around because of how decrepit my joints feel all the time. My health insurance is about to expire again and I'm afraid I'm just going to miss an opportunity to get a complete physical again. Haven't had one since 2003 or 2004. Hmmm... I guess nothing is really stopping me right now except lethargy. Okay. By the end of this week, I will have scheduled an appointment with a doctor for a physical. You needed to know this.

Matt totally moved to Chicago this month... HOLYAWESOMEBALLS. Once my sister's destitute ass can get in gear and move back as well, seeing the siblings Stanislawski will become that much easier. Growing up, you take that shit for granted. Matt basically moved out in high school and Katherine and I never really saw eye to eye until recently so it's been my little move to Far Far Away that has really made me realize how excellent and neat my family is. Can't wait to head home for the holidays in less than a month.

Waiting on a fairly large paycheck to come in from a job I was doing all last week and then I'll feel better about the necessary spending I've been doing this week. That being said, I'm off to do a little unnecessary spending at the Foxfire Room. Go Bears.
