Big Wednesday

I survived my first surf lesson! \o/ Of course my performance wasn't that great but hey, it was my first time ever on a surfboard, I wasn't expecting to ride waves like a pro. And I had fun, which is the important thing.

Aaand I went to the arcade on the Santa Monica Pier afterwards and look:



Yep, #1 at Street Fighter! I'm so old school. I also treated myself to a delicious red velvet cream cheese cupcake at Yummy Cupcakes before heading home, which was a smart move, because I was so tired that I just took a shower and went to bed skipping dinner. Today I'm sore all over, my arms hurt, my abs hurt, my butt hurts. And I have a bruise on my hip. But now I know where Scott got his shoulders: my deltoids and rotator cuffs have never hurt so much, which means I used them a lot yesterday, and if Scott has surfed on a regular or semi-regular basis since he was a teen, well...

Street Fighter! :D Amazing!


Surfing sounds awesome! It's really popular here; I've told myself I will have a go one day... But the sea is so very very cold XD I'm sure it can't compare to the balmy waters where you are.

Ever make it to Double Pretzel???? LOL!

I was at the Santa Monica Pier when I was there in July! It was pretty, but cool even then. I would never be brave enough to surf. No way! I bet you are sore, though, because I've heard that surfing uses every muscle.

Sounds like you had a great day and having fun is what it's all about!

That is AWESOME. I have never been surfing, but it's cool that you're giving it a try. And nothing like a new sport to teach you about muscles you didn't even know you had...
