Saturday So Far

I really like Saturdays where I can go to bed tired and ready to sleep. 

I have a hard time sleeping sometimes during the week because I work at a desk job and don't get physically tired.  Except from wearing heels, but I don't think that counts.

Being a very social person however (sometimes to my detriment) I do find myself traversing a visiting path around the office quite often.  That notwithstanding, I do have a desk job, and nonactivity begets more of the same.  More often than not I come home with "grandiose" plans of the dog park or tennis or something outside...and I end up just sitting on the couch after dinner, playing on my laptop or watching tv.  Then before I know it, it's time to start getting stuff ready for the morning.

Head tired, body not. 

Today I managed to fit in a nice array of activity...Had homemade blueberry scones (wife's recipe, she is a genuis) with Strawberry tea, then tennis, when we came back we made vegan "fishsticks" (see previous statement about wife), then went to the dog park. 

I absolutely love the dog park.  You have a bunch of people amassed there with their canine compatriots and you have instant conversation ice breakers:  "You have a beautiful dog!", "What kind of dog?", "Oh wow, look at them play!"

As I've said, I'm extremely social. 

I also love dogs.  I love watching dogs, I love petting dogs, I love walking them, I love being around them all the time. 

So the dog park is one of the best places I can think of to go...My wife said that we aren't allowed to have any more of our "dates" there because it doesn't count if the dog is there.  If the kids can't come, the dog can't come.  My reasoning is that it's free and fun and we always both enjoy ourselves...although I do get distracted and start talking to the whole park.  That being said, I do get her point. 

Note to self:  find free and fun things to do for couples.
