Easter

Easter weekend was enjoyable. Ellen and I did very little around the house. We went to church and came home to have a meal. It was crusted salmon and potatoes with asparagus. It is possible that the salmon was past its prime date, or that it was salmon at all. We are going to buy our fish from a fish market and not the local grocery stores anymore. All in all it was a good time.

It was a good Thursday

Today I took a run with Steve for a distance of around 3 miles. Earlier in the day I watched around 3 or 4 games in the NCAA Tournament. After our run, Ellen and I went out to dinner with Steve and Jodi at "Gordy's" and had some of the best Asian food that I have ever had. Most of what I ate was the combination of vegetarian noodle dishes. The Kung Pow Salmon was phenomenal and the salmon fell apart when touched. It was a very good meal.

LRW IV is finished and other thoughts

It is finally over. It is possible that my partner was completely inept. The brief was turned in last Friday after spending the entire night up waiting for her to finish. It is nice to know that I will not have to write any other papers on topics I could care less about for my remaining tenure in law school.
Last night the Gophers lost to Maryland in the first round of the NIT (Not Important Tournament). I am excited for the NCAA to begin. At this time it is only about 18 hours 6 minutes and 30 seconds till the first tip. I think UCLA will win the whole thing. One of my loser friends believes that Wisconsin will be in the final four. The sconies are not that good. I predict a second round loss. Gonzaga will most likely win the first round but lose to Georgetown in the second round. I look forward to watching the games this weekend with Ellen.
I have decided that I am going to take up the hobby of running and other outdoor race related activities. In about a month Ellen and I will be running Bloomsday. Last year it attracted about 50,000 runners and walkers. It is a hilly course that might prove to be tiring. It is only about 7.5 miles, so it should not be that bad. I have set two new goals. I would like to complete the Hawaiian Ironman Championship, and the Badwater Ultramarathon. Both could prove very very difficult. I plan to attempt them by the time I am 31 or 32.
