Hello my honey moneys, this thread is a remake for a thread I made a year or 2 ago but was locked for some reason.

This thread is fairly simple, just talk about something interesting that happened to you today, nothing complicated, just that easy.

The interesting thing I did today was play Dapro in a game of Shell Shock Live 2, and played chess and backgammon with my dad.

I'm mad at myself! I bought this Polaroid Cube so I could take pictures or record videos while I ride my bike. So I went for a 18 mile ride today and I left my camera home because it's 95 F (110 with humidity) and I was worried the heat would damage it.

Anyway about 8 mile into the ride I see a turkey and 4 babies. At the end the of the path I turn around and on my way back I see the adult turkey but no babies then 200 feet further I see another turkey. A mile later I see a black snake crossing the road.

Another mile further I see 3 deer (adult and 2 fawns) by the side of the road. The mom and one baby ran into the woods but the other baby started hoping on the side of the road, about three feet from me. It was so close I could have touched it. The fawn kept hopping and hopping for 30 seconds. Of course, I didn't have my CAMERA!!!

This is a once in a lifetime event and I wasn't ready! Man that would have made an amazing video. ;(

Tango lesson, followed by getting lost on the way home because an important road was closed for no apparent reason. I ended up in another town...

In an effort to prove something to silver, I drank a glass of vinegar. I don't know what I was trying to prove but I think I proved it well.

I woke up today, which means that it was not my last sleep.

I watched the first stage of the Tour de France. Yeah it's on for those who planned to watch it and forgot. I never do!

You didn't miss much because it was the boring individual time trial.
Anyway, it's seem that this year's Tour will be VERY interesting.

I watched the Women's World Cup of soccer's final between USA and Japan.
It was AMAZING! USA score 4 goals in 16 minutes then Japan scored 1 in the first half then another one in the second half but USA scored a 5th one and won the World Cup!

If you're a soccer fan but didn't watch the tournament you are an idiot!
The parity was incredible, some teams were impressive like Costa Rica who only lost by 1 goal to Brasil and Cameron who was fun to watch as well.

I was rooting for three teams, France, Canada and USA.

The US team deserved the victory because they were great and didn't have it easy. They had to beat Germany who was among the favorite then Japan who won 4 years ago.

Too bad France and Canada didn't go further but hey, you can't win them all.

I'm glad I watched it!

On Saturday I was probably the most embarrassed I have ever been.

So my dad and I decided to go to Steak and Shake because food. Unfortunately they were very busy as the restaurant was nearly packed and the tables that didn't have people had trash. The waitress of that group of tables was obviously pretty lazy and her attitude wasn't any better.

My dad thought this too, but no matter how much I agree with him, I don't agree with him throwing one of their milkshake glasses on the floor because he didn't get a straw for over half-an-hour.

Next time he does something like that I'm socking him in the face.

I went to an exhibition of video games at the local science museum. I used an Oculus Rift for the first time. WOW.

I had a really upset stomach until about noon. I thought I was going to get off of work after only half an hour because it was so bad, but it got better. In the end, I worked a little over 11 and a half hours today. So overall, it was a pretty good day.
