Huntington Beach Weekend

My roommate drives me to the airport at 5 am. I buy overpriced breakfast at the airport. I get on my plane, Southwest, and head south. We stop at Sacramento first. I read some of my book (I lost my love in Baghdad). I continue on to Orange County airport. The book I read gets sad. I have trouble finishing the book. I shed a few tears. I need a freezer. I finish the book. I land in Orange County. I pick up my rental car. I drive to Huntington Beach. It is nice and sunny. I go and eat at Arby's. I drive around Huntington Beach. I drive past where the expo will be held in a few hours. I drive the course of the race. I continue past the course. I end up in Los Angeles. Some guy in an SUV scream some profanities at me. I keep driving. I'm not sure where I am. I turn around and use the GPS to get back. I get back to HB. The expo has started. I go in and pick up my packet. I end up buying another pair of running shoes. I check out the beach. I drive to my hotel. I check in to my hotel. My room is hot. I kill time by checking my email and stocks. I change into some running gear. I take a quick run in the surrounding area. I get back to my hotel. I go eat Subway. Its dark, I contemplate of watching a movie. I missed the movie. I watch Cartoons instead. I leave the hotel. I go pick up Bri and her mom at Long Beach airport. I take a wrong turn. I drive them to their hotel. We go to the store to pick up some food. I go back to my hotel for sleep.

DAY 2

I sleep in. I wake up and shower. I meet Bri and her mom for brunch. I'm late. It's another warm sunny day. I go to the Expo with Bri and her mom. They pick up their packets. I check out more of the merchandises. I go bck to the car. I drive around some more. I go back to my hotel. I start reading my other book (A Sport and a Pastime). I take a nap. I meet Bri, her mom, her aunt, and her friend Jon for dinner. We choose the Mac Grill. I walk to the restaurant. I think the restaurant is close. I'm wrong. We have big pasta meals. We check out some stores nearby. I'm dropped off at my hotel. I spent the evening picking out what to wear for the run tomorrow. I choose the orange shirt, black shorts, white visor and Junga II. I try to stay hydrated. I pace back and forth. I read more of the new book. I watch more Cartoons. I pack up my stuff except for what I need for the race. I play some sodoku. I pace some more. I finally get to bed to sleep.

DAY 3

I wake up and take a shower. I have oatmeal and a banana for breakfast. I'm dehydrated. I start drinking. I text Bri. I keep drinking. I grab all my stuff. I take a quick look around the room. I have everything. I go to the car to load my stuff. I got back to the lobby to take the shuttle to the race. There is a long line. I wait an hour for a ride. I barely make it to the start line. I run the race. Its foggy. The course is crowded. I bonk between mile 9 and 10. I still finish with a personal best time. I go to mile marker 26. I wait for Bri. I take pics of random runners. Bri is here. I take some shots. I grab my stuff and make a run for the finish line. I past Bri. The crowd gets thick. I can't make it to the finish line. I meet Bri and her mom at the baggage check. We go to the beer garden. Beer hits us hard. We go to the bar Sharkeez. Jon and friends are there. We order a lava float. I get taken back to my hotel. I take a shower at Bri's hotel. We go eat some In-n-out burgers. We rejoin Jon and friends at Sharkeez. We watch the Superbowl. We have a lot of drinks. Bri must get drunk. Bri gets drunk. Pittsburg wins. We leave the bar and decide to go to Jon's place. Bri needs to walk. I pull the car over. We walk around a parking lot. We walk again. We keep walking. Bri start talking. I listen. We keep walking. We try to find a Del Taco. We keep walking. Bri keeps talking. I keep listening. Bri falls down. We go to a Carl's Jr. I sit down and eat. Bri walks around and eat. Bri steals a hoodie sweatshirt. We walk back to the car. We stop by In-n-out to bring back to Jon and friend. They're all ready for bed. I take Bri back to her hotel. I drive to Anahiem to check into my other hotel.

DAY 4
I have no internet in my room. Sad. I go meet Bri and her family at IHOP for brunch. We go to the beach. We walk. We lay. We wonder. We get some sun. We go back into town. Bri checks out some shops. Retail girl calls me nice guy. Ugh. I buy a t-shirt souviner. We go eat mexican. We go our separate ways. I go back to Anaheim. I go in the hot tub. I go relax. I go back to my room. I watch 24. I finish my laundry. I pack my luggage. I read more of my book. I sleep to some cartoon playing in the background.

Last day in SoCal. I check my email in the business center. I finish packing. I check out of Anaheim. I drive to Cerrito to find Jollibee. I eat some Jollibee food. I drive to my airport. I check in early. I hang out at the gate for 2 hrs. I read more of my book. Book excites me. I go for a walk. I drink some Starbucks. I read more of my book. My plane loads. My plane lands in Oakland. Flight attendant scares me by saying this is the last stop. I don't have transfer ticket. I freak out. I text Bri. She can't help me, she's at a doctors. Flight attendant corrects herself - plane will continue to Sea-tac. I'm relieved. I read more of my book. More exciting pages. I take deep breaths. Plane is loaded with passangers in Oakland. We continue to Seattle. A chinese girl sits next to me. We land in Sea-tac. I go to Shuttle Express for my ride home. I ordered a van. I get a towncar. Cool. Nacho is my driver. I get home in one piece. I read more of A Sport and a Pastime.
