Another First

Work was busy in a non-interesting way today... at some point, watching things fall apart loses its entertainment value... and if one isn't actively making things better, it's not quite so uplifting anymore... besides which, I was probably over tired. I was going to get 4.5 hours of sleep last night, but ended up getting more like 2.5 hours... but I had a good time... so there's nothing to complain about.

I got home from work and proceeded to immediately take a two hour nap. Then I woke up, ate, and went for a surf. Cox Bay was super crowded, but the surf was mushy and bad... I was there for half an hour tops, and then left for Long Beach. Long Beach was super flat... but the few waves that were there were clean... and there were only about five people out. I had resigned myself to the impossibility of a great surf this evening... but then caught a few worthwhile rides. Things were picking up as it was getting dark... and I then I caught this clean, peeling right... and as I rode it, I saw this gigantic school of fish going in the same direction. I was surfing directly on top of hundreds of dark, shimmering fish. I have no idea what they are... but I've never seen that many fish in the surf... and have certainly never surfed with them. So that was a first.

And now the blueberry coffee cake is ten or fifteen minutes from being done... the table is set... and I might be able to get almost of 5.5 hours of sleep tonight! Yay!
