Ambitious Boring Weekend

So I'm taking a cue from my buddy at Leftover Chinese and theming my post titles in a too-lazy-to-think-up-a-unique title fashion. Not that I'm implying he's lazy at anything, even his blog posts, but this does just seem easier. I'm going with all my posts as being Ambitious-this or Ambivalent-that. I'm also kicking around a them similar to his "Leftover Chinese does-this" fashion only a Harry Potter-esque Ambivalent Ambition and the blah blah blah. Don't mistake this for Harry Potter fan-boydom, it's just another easy way to title blog posts. Don't get me wrong I like the Harry [*]er just fine, just not enough to purposely theme a blog around him.

This weekend was probably the most laid back I've had in months. After attending a hockey game with my brother I met some people for drinks but cut it off at first bar time and not 4am bar time.

I awoke at a semi-respectable-for-a-Saturday 11:30 AM and began by tackling a sweeping and mopping of my living area that had been nagging me. Little did I know this would turn into a 5 hour cleaning festival and soon my apartment would be as clean as is actually possible considering I've still got stacks of books craving a shelf to put them on.

Saturday night I met aforementioned LC and hot-teacher Andy at a neighborhood haunt and again called an evening before getting too crazy. I awoke at 10:30 on Sunday with little to do since I'd done all my cleaning the day before. So I watched some James Bond movies, some football, worked out, did some reading and watched more television (read Battlestar Gallactica) with the usual crew.

After a highly active, though boring weekend I went to sleep at 11:00 on Sunday and awoke at 5:00 this morning feeling wonderful. I think quiet weekends are just what I need to keep my weeks from being unbearable.

I'm suddenly thinking this title thing won't work out since I luckily have plenty of emotional states besides ambition and ambivalence.

Leftover Chinese types a reponse

I use the "LC does/did/asks _____." formula not because I'm too lazy to think of titles, but to bring cohesion to a blog of random and often unconnected musings. I still have to fill the blank but the choices are definitely reduced.

I've also always wanted to refer to myself in the third person and the internet is the best place to start.

But yeah, thinking up individual titles are often difficult to do and they do set up what follows.

Causing Accidents tried the same thing, but wound up causing too many accidents in the process.

oh yeah, coming up with titles blows. This post is good. I should get some motivation to try harder.
