Friday. Watched episode 5-6/12 of “Chaos;Head”. During our light foosball practice, Michelle and I somehow fell into a discussion about shuffleboard, lol. Yup, I’m a shuffleboard newbie. Heyyy, got my “Office Enterprise 2007″ shipment! Then after work, made a quick stop at home, before Coley’s 7pm Rock Band Party! Not only Coley, but Vu, Leah, Bliss, Kate, Tiger, Juan. Of course, no ex, no Lisa, lol. But guess what? We actually beat the game! Hilarious! In the end, I stayed from 730-1130pm, and skipped the late-night “Blueberry Hill” diner. Thus, no treadmill. But I did create a new “Anime by the Books” banner for Jenn Kei’s blog, lol.
