i could eat blubber if it was crispy

saturday i went to the pool up the road and swam the whole .5 mile distance. it was slow and i stopped about every 50 yards but i swam the whole distance so it made me happy.
sunday i headed out for LA. eric and the kids dropped me off at the airport but as i was standing in line at security but i discovered that i forgot my drivers license. so i called eric and he went home picked it up and then came back to the airport. that was totally nice of him. when we got to la we rented a chevy cobalt which is essentailly just like my 1996 pontiac sunfire. we laughed, we cried and then we cried some more when we realized that neither of us had directions to the hotel. we called a few people from home, i got caught waving good bye to one of the people on the phone and then we finally made it to the hotel ok. so then we went to ruth's chris for some steaks. david, who is my travel partner made the comment that i ate just as much as he did. so what, it was damn tasty.
i woke up early and went and ran on the treadmill at the gym next to the hotel. i ran much faster then i ever have! it must have been the steak. then we came into work. i don't remembe too much of the work day but it was fun as it always is when i come down here. in the evening we met up with dug for some sushi roku which was so good. i was so hungry i was going to pass out that i downed a bunch of salmon shashimi and then pretty much a whole rainbow roll, a whole some other tempura spicy tuna roll and then 1/3 of two of these totally awesome lobster roll. i then ordered some tasty mochi but when i asked how many peices came she said two, so i ordered what i thought was two orders but she only brought one. as a result i had to order a "bananabobana" ice cream creation from room service when i got back to the hotel.
tuesday i woke up early and went to the pool at the gym next to the hotel. its an outdoor pool but its heated and it was so nice. i think i like swimming. i swam the whole .5 mile stopping once after 20 lenghts and then again after like 10 lengths and then about every 4 until the time was up. i swam more then .5 miles but it was relaxing and nice. i switched it up between crawl and breast stroke trying to do more crawl and just resorting to breast when i was tired. i was happy. we then met up with my boss and some other people from work at dennys for breakfast. i had 6 peices of bacon! it was small bacon but still.
