Today was another day of break. I would say I'm kind of tired of it and ready to go back to work but I have to work tomorrow night and Saturday night at the theater and I have absolutely no interest in doing that. I hate that place and I need out.

My main accomplishment for the day was finishing my letter to my friend. At least the typed version. I still need to write it down on paper but I can do that tomorrow. Or some other time. The point is I finished the content of the letter.

I also started reading the next book club book, The Distance Between Us by Reyna Grande, because we are meeting on Tuesday I believe. I only have about 275 pages to go. So I might be going to book club. I should be able to knock out some large chunks at the theater tomorrow and Saturday so that is one benefit to be trapped at a pointless job for six to nine hours at a time. In reality I have plenty of time to read 275 pages by Tuesday but finding the motivation to do so will be the hard part.

Tonight I should have gone to visit the new volunteer kid but I couldn't get ahold of him. I called twice and the second time it went to voicemail after only a few rings so it was obvious someone knew I was calling and pushed it to voicemail. So I said screw it.

I went and got gas and then took the fifteen mile scenic route home because I wanted to drive a little and listen to music. When I got home I played some Battlefield 3. I did a pretty awful job at CTF so I didn't even want to try Air Superiority. I ended on a high note when I took the cheap way out and start leaving mines near the flag and randomly on the road. I probably got ten kills that way, several of them double kills when two dudes on a motorcycle trying to get the flag would run over them. I felt kind of bad about it but it is a genuine tactic in CTF, regardless of how cheap it is, and it is kind of satisfying seeing a whole bunch of kills and points pop up on the screen when I'm just running around aimlessly.

I'm not sure what's on the agenda for tomorrow, other than work at the theater. I might replace smoke detector batteries. That is something that is probably long overdue.
