K. PAUL AND FAMS ARRIVE
I woke up pretty late just because I couldn't get myself up. I felt
too groggy from last night. Instead, I drove over to Lorbeer around
10:30AM and just did as many laps as I could before it started to rain.
I actually timed it perfectly, because it started to rain around
11:45AM. I got in five miles, but if I had left around 9AM to run those
ten miles, I would have gotten back at just about the right time before
the rain started to fall. Oh well. At least I got some miles in.
After my run, I put some cleaner in my tank and filled up the tank. Hopefully that will help clean out the junk in my engine that might cause me to fail my smog test. We'll see.
Then I picked up food at In-N-Out for K. Noel and fams who drove out to wait for K. Paul and fams. I spent some time playing poker, but then we decided to go to Redbox to rent a game. We got a dancing game that we really got into. The girls were so into it, they didn't even say hello when K. Paul and fams finally arrived.
Jared and I made some cheese toast. His was super salty, but the crunch was delicious since he toasted both sides of the bread. I like that idea and will probably do the same thing next time. Although we used French bread, I think it would be better to use Italian since it cuts much better and would probably have a nicer texture.
Then we all played the dancing game and got into a super sweat. I couldn't take much more of it, so I went upstairs to play some poker again. Jared and Marissa also went up to get out of the heat of things and then K. Paul came later to discuss Jared's future and the potential for investing in the market.
We got into another winless argument and I'm disappointed at myself. I know it's fruitless to argue about such things, but I get into this state where I feel like I have to argue until the other person is convinced. In my mind, it's about trying to get them to understand and agree, but deep down inside, I realize it's just insecurity. Why do I need to convince someone of my argument? My logical mind tells me I need to do it because if they understood the logic of the argument, they would not be able to argue otherwise. But the realistic side of me realizes it's pointless because the other person probably feels the same way. It's only later that I realize it's too damn late and then I get more frustrated that I even started down that path.
Kimi came later to pick Jared up and then I played a little LA Noir while the girls went to bed.
