today i spent the better part of the day basking in the sun at the beach near la conchita with my buddy Jordan. we surfed for a while until i discoverd my boards nose was damaged and taking on water. i was like jack sparrow in pirates out there. so i just sprawled myself out in the sand and cooked for the rest of the afternoon. literally. i am so sun-burned. apparantly self application of sun screen to the back is never a good idea and never ends well. i still haven't learned that lesson despite the many a protected area of skin in the form of a hand-swipe across the shoulder blade that is surrouded by emblazoned red flesh. neither is a good idea to apply the sun screen and then go surfing right after, only to deposit all of it onto the surfboard. re-application after said mishap would have been all the wiser. but of couse, the brain was not in full function today much to my own chagrin. how i am just grumpy and sun-burned. so the fun-filled day at the beach ended in a un-rideable surf board, scorched skin, and exhaustion. oh it is so miserable living in santa barbara and getting to go to the beach every day. haha.
i did however find a fun and yummy jewel of a resturant in carp. it is called the beach grill at padaro. love it. i orderd a turkey club with avocado and a salad, but only to spill my vinagarette on the table. it was just one of those days.
i then met some friend at the evening service at Reality and then somehow i managed to get myself back to the apartment in one piece and to have a semi-coherent phone conversation with my grandmother. what a day. and it is now time to call it and head to bed only to arise in merely 7 hours and start another long week of work and summer school. oh the misery. lol.
