Tubing

Yesterday a bunch of us at Ticom skipped off of work and floated down the river on inner tubes. I'm not sure whose idea it was originally, but word got around that we should all meet up at George's house (he's my boss!) for some breakfast and then go out to the Guadalupe river (pronounced Guad-a-loop here in Texas for some reason), bring a whole lot of beers, and float for about 4 hours.

It was a tube-load of fun. We got to hang out with a bunch of people we work with that we haven't gotten to spend a lot of time with before, and everyone had a really great time. Jess did some butterfly races with fellow swimmers and I ran a beer/watermellon delivery service for a while. One of the most exciting episodes happend when we were all swimming around and a few of our tubes got away from us and got swept down some swift-moving water. Too shallow to swim through, but too deep and fast to walk through, I ended up flopping my way down the river, tubeless, bonking up my shins a little bit, but otherwise doing just fine. We caught up with the tubes, though, and all was well.

After the river, we went to a nearby restaurant to get some food, and then our DDs took us home. Hurrah!

Tonight we're going to the Master Pancake Theatre (think MST3K, but live) presentation of Catwoman, one of the worst movies I have ever seen. It should be hilarious.

Also, I'll be working on another kitten movie today. It may come out later, if you're good.
