| | How do I deal with a bad, bad week? Easy, the same way I deal with anything else tough in life: I hide under my bedcovers.
After a glorious fourteen hours in bed (by myself, thanks for asking), I woke up remarkably early on Saturday ready to do something fun during my golden weekend. (Early is anytime before 8am -- which clues you in to how early I went to bed on Friday night.)
I called a bunch (like, all four) of my friends in town. Sadly, they were all doing couple-type things (my friends, evidently, coming in even numbers). Therefore, I decided to strike it out by myself and hike to Tomales Point, a hike I've been wanting to do for some time. (The wisdom of hiking in relatively isolated territory by yourself is dubious, but I really wanted to hike.)
Afterwards, I checked out the movie listings and realized that The Forbidden Kingdom had come out. Jet Li and Jackie Chan fighting together -- excellent!
Now, let's face it: the plot itself is a bit flimsy, the dialogue formulaic, and -- worst of all -- the white boy gets the cute Asian girl in the end. (Where's the justice, I say? It's what you'd expect of a marital arts film directed by a white guy.)
However, this is all mitigated by (did I say this already?) Jackie Chan and Jet Li -- fighting!
All in all, it's been a good weekend. My spirit is refreshed. I'm ready for the beat-down.
