So far the weekend has seemed to have gone alright. Well… Friday ended up being a bust but then again I did get most of my studying done that day. Went to see Burn After Reading with Jordan. Was one of those rare occasions where my brother actually has a Friday off since most days he works the grave yard shift at the hospital.
So then Saturday was my action packed day. Not so much in the morning. Watched a few movies and finished up Before the Rains. Then talked with Kristen for a while and we decided to go see the movie Traitor later that night. So I figured in between now and then I’d have some time to get a bike ride in before the movie. Left here around three. All went well on the bike ride. Weren’t too many cars/trucks; although, the trucks that did go by always kick up way too much dust. Trouble came on the way down from Brown’s Hole… my back tire blew out completely and the whole way back — 10mi or so — not a single person stopped with the exception of another biker. Unfortunately my tire wasn’t going to hold any air so I thanked the other cyclist and kept on moving. The whole time I was thinking, “shit, I’m gonna be late to the movies.” Luck was on my side it seemed as it only took me until 6:30 to get back home.
The movie was alright but it could have been much better. The action was good, the plot line kind of made sense as it’s something our government might come up with as they’re completely incompetent. Guess the high light of Saturday is now being able to tell Kristen I walked 10 miles to get to the movie theatre.
