Elf Riders.

The weekend on the Cape was amazing. Red and her parents were wonderful hosts, and we had a lot of fun. Her dad took us for a ride on his boat, and we sat by the pool and people-watched the whole time. There was a lot of inside jokes that developed - the weird manager guy at dinner on Friday night, the golden couple by the pool (we named them Kelsey and Trent), and the weird groups of words we made up while playing Quiddler, this fun card game that resembles Scrabble ("I roam the bum," "elf riders," "Quoth the ape - ding!" were just a few). I also had the most delicous waffle cone ever. And we got lucky to miss all of the traffic going there and coming home.

Now it's Tuesday and I'm at work, and I am unmotivated to work as usual. I will need to take a little walk during lunch so I can feel alive again.

I can't believe we're reaching the middle of August. There are only a few more summer weekends left (this Saturday Melissa and I are going to the Red Sox game). And this only means that school is coming up soon. Ugh.

As Jack Bauer would say - "son of a bitch!"
