Got up super early in the morning, like at 6.30, despite going to bed for realsies at 2.30 because I was afraid I wouldn't get up from the alarm I set for 8.40, and couldn't go back to sleep. Changed real quick, got ready, and at 9, we set out for the UW golf course. Where we discovered that the course was closed on Saturdays for the rest of the football season due to game days.
So we improvised and decided to go to Jefferson Park course, it was a hella long drive and we were worried there'd be no parking there -- the lots were packed, but we did find one sweet spot, and the stalls were open. Man I love the Jefferson park golf course, it's nice and green, well maintained and makes one feel really good about being there. Which is not to pooh pooh the UW one, it's great for the price range, but I can see what the statement 'you get what you pay for' might mean for low-range golf driving ranges now.
My shots were pretty good generally speaking, save for the starting few that were awful. I can do half shots from the driver pretty well, and don't have the stability or strength for the full shots. Still can't use an Iron to save my life. Saw a couple of dudes making the balls fly literally fly like a ball and not in a ballistic trajectory and it was insane. Didn't know the golf balls could do that!
BC dropped me next to her place, I walked back home. Got Mighty O' Donuts on the way, called up AS and told him I'd come do the leftovers for lunch from the night before. The two of us shared the two donuts (one plain, one called 'chocolate extravaganza' or something, it was basically a cake in a donut form and I didn't mind!). Good times!
Came back home, tried writing but couldn't, watched lots of youtube and tv and just ambled about, didn't even go on a proper walk. AS called later in the evening asking me if I wanted to go on a walk, and we headed out at around 6, which is the latest I've headed out for the Arboretum loop. We did Arboretum but just upto the vistor center, interlaken and volunteer, and by the time we were in Interlaken it was already so dark we walked with torchlights in our cellphones on.
Back to my place, I made us kimchi-egg-sausage noodles with indomie and shin ramyun mixed. Watched Nepali Idol sort of tv show where they don't see the performers before judging. Called it an early night because the following day was going to be busy and I needed to get up on time!
