Day 1 of housesitting
May. 8th, 2005 09:26 amSo I'm here now... right downtown, big apartment all to myself...
I've got the use of their car, but I can't drive standard. Heh. Not to mention, Andrew tried to use the car yesterday, and couldn't put the damn thing into reverse, and I have NO idea why. We were both tired, though, and may have missed something.
Anyway, he slept at home last night, he'll take care of the animals and plants at OUR place this morning, and then work at the pet store all day, and then come down here. He works at the geek store for Mon - Thur, so it won't be too much extra hassle to go in from downtown.
They have cable! And way too many channels! So I watched Iron Chef (Spinach Battle) last night, and one of the batman movies (whichever one has the riddler and two face in it), and had a LOVELY TIME.
Dude, too cool.
There's a pool downstairs... it's kind of small, but I think I should be able to do some exercising in it. Truncated laps, or something. There's also a tiny weight machine I may be able to get my workout done in (that's tomorrow though), and a little stair machine (it's cute, and doesn't look very strong!), and a bike.
But what need have I of THOSE??? I can just go out and walk on the seawall! Or wander around downtown and people watch!!
Last night I had a Larabar... mmmmm for chocolate coconut yet allowed on the cleanse. YUMMERS.
