Target

Today, I went to Target, looking for Ocean's 12. I did not find Ocean's 12, but had a pleasant surprise when I encountered a friend of mine from high school. If any of you hail from Farmington, you may be familiar with Shawna Speas. She was the homecoming queen, drum major, band geek, and all around solid individual. She is also one of the friendliest people I've ever had the pleasure of befriending, and one of the most beautiful women I've ever come in contact with. Mind I say beautiful, not "hot." Anyways, just a really good girl, and I really enjoyed seeing her, even if it was for just a minute or so. I had a lot of good memories forged beside her in band at FHS. I had a huge crush on her in around 8th grade. Like, I wrote her a note asking her out. Ha, after I got beyond that, I was able to forge a somewhat normal friendship with her. Always found her beautiful though. Man, my musical activities in high school were so much fun. Thinking of her just reminds me of what fun I had at Farmington with those people. A lot of good memories and experiences, I'll tell you that. Anyways, after that, I went to Blockbuster, and got 3 pre-viewed DVD's for $25. Sideways, Ocean's 12, and Hitch. I was very pleased with myself. So, this afternoon, I almost messed myself up on my bike hardcore. To make a long story short, I miscalculated where the sidewalk was, and found myself heading straight towards a curb, with no time to try and bunny hop it. So yeah, I ran headfirst into it. If you are unfamiliar with the anatomy of a road bike, it is very stiff, and does absorb jolts very well. I thought I was going to mess up my legs, and get pinned between the bike and curb. However, the impact ripped my cleats off the pedals, so I sort of half jumped off in midair as my bike plunged to the ground. So yeah, I'm really surprised I didn't break my shin, and even more surprised I didn't bend my wheel in two. I couldn't tell any damage at all to my bike, which amazes me. I need to get my bike fixed, but I'm a little short on cash this week. My gears need to be adjusted and my brakes need tightening. My mother is going to Las Vegas tomorrow for 4 days, so I'm on my own. I'm looking forward to it, being away from the stupid nagging. That is really getting to me. Anyways, I'm out to watch my new movies. Have a good one.
