Stir-Crazy

I have spent a ton of time alone this weekend. Sometimes this doesn't bother me, but after a week of really only having contact with other humans at the gym, I'm going absolutely batshit. Climbing the walls. I'm at the point where all of the creative things--card-making, scrapbooking--I wanted to do are not happening because I'm either napping on the couch from total ennui or bolting out the door to walk the mall. The MALL, people. I spent a couple hours hangin' with the homies at the mall in Stockton yesterday because I was that bored. I've never seen so many saggy pants and Raiders jerseys in my life.

So in other words, I need to make some plans. I can't afford a vacation right now, but I can certainly drive myself to the beach, go on hikes, and hang out. If anyone wants to come over for tea, I can put on a semi-authentic High Tea right here in my apartment and always love an excuse to use Grandma's china.

If you're adventurous and willing to try to keep up with me, I want to hike Mt. Tam and Angel Island.

And I am always, always, ALWAYS up for parking my rear on the beach with a good book. Always. Ocean Girl loves the ocean, and all that.

I'm also wanting to revisit Angel's Camp and Murphys soon--two adorable gold towns in Calaveras County. Easy drive from Stockton!

I'm not a huge movie-goer, but "Eclipse" and "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1" are both coming out this summer. I will be there with bells on--opening night. If you're able to hang with nerdy crowds, come join me!

Who's up for some adventures?

Such a pity I can't do some hiking with you...
In France we have websites for people who want to meet like-minded hikers for the holiday, does this exist in the US?
