One or More Things I Did Today

And Let It Be Known, that on July 10th, in the year of 2 thousands and 11, I was up to this:

Wow, took me a few days to get to this one. But I swear this is what I was up to last Sunday!
  • Triumphantly* awoke from sleeping outside the tent for a second straight night.
  • Found myself sleep planking**.
  • Ate leftovers for breakfast. Combine those two hyperlinks (or, more specifically, the subjects of them) and you'll have yourself a beast of a meal.
  • Hey, let's go hiking!
  • Sounds good, but first let's pack up the campsite and scoot through the dew***.
  • Rocked a bit of a hike, saw some palm trees, and climber Mastodon Peak, but ultimately limited our hike due to the heat**** and our heavy legs.
  • But, good news: Jeffrey's aunt had a pool in the Claremont are. This ensued.
  • But before that, we stopped by Target to pick up my cell phone*****.
  • Probably a good time to tell you about the Dippin' Dots we savored on the ride back.
  • Did you know that Dippin' Dots has made impressive strides in dot ice cream since you first encountered it at the mall or waterpark? I didn't either. But they have!******
  • The best part of the day? We made it back to Kyle and Liz's in time for dinner.
  • What did we have for dinner? I'm glad I typed that question, because we had tamales, steamed in a pot over an open flame in the backyard.
  • Innovation: I suggested we toss some of them apricots on the grill.
  • Success!
  • Hot success!
  • Once all the fun had been had, we decided it was time to call it a night.
  • Slept.
  • Picture:
Desert asparagus for you?

As they say, "It was a Day".


*Adverbs are proof that god loves us and wants us to be happy.
**Can't get too much of a good thing, you feel me?
***Apparently this was a favorite expression of my great-grandfather. Had to shoehorn this in.
****Pansy.
*****It and I were playing a game of hide and seek. It chose the single occupancy restroom as its hiding place, which lasted for a couple of days. I tell ya, those smart-phones. What will Jobs think of next?!
******Don't believe me? Chew on this delicious hyperlink and discover the depths of infinity.
