I saw these pics earlier and thought back of my surf lessons in Santa Monica. Sigh.

But this made me smile again: socks! :D

And I think we're all jealous of this woman:

Right. It's Friday! Only 5 minutes of work left! And tonight I'm going to a concert with a friend who has free tickets AND is driving! Whoo! \o/

(We're going to see Negrita, I like them but I've never seen them live, so I'm looking forward to the concert. And I've just found out they'll be on tour in the USA next month. I'm impressed.)

:D

Today, during my third surf lesson, I could finally ride a wave all the way to the shore. More than one, actually. \o/ I'm so happy I decided to give it another go, I've been grinning for the last few hours just thinking about it. :D

Before going home I had one last cupcake at Yummy Cupcakes, Fudge Yummy:



And just as I was sitting down to eat it, "China Girl" by David Bowie came on!

What else? I saw "The Backup Plan" last night. Not the kind of film I'd usually watch but, hey, Alex O'Loughlin. First of all, the first act was so, so bad, it had everything that our teacher told us you should not have in a movie: character talking to herself, random flashbacks, exposition just for the sake of it. But some parts were really funny, I literally laughed out loud. And Alex's smitten expression is the most beautiful thing on earth. ♥

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...
