Went on the Swami's Ride again. Took everything I had to stay with the group to the regroup point at the church; but I made it! It was really hot with high humidity. In the 90s for sure and way hot for out here. It's a heat wave out here for everyone. I was pretty spent after the church point and had an up and down ride back to the start. Afterwards I did another hour with a cool guy up to Oceanside and back to the hotel. He was strong, and didn't wear a helmet which I think is dumb.
Went and looked at 3 places today. Each has something I like but has other drawbacks. I know that is part of life but it is frustrating nonetheless. The first one has the guys room above me so it is a constant source of noise with him walking around above me. It is really close to the beach though. The 2nd place had the guys parents living in the master and 3 roommates. Total of 5 people. Great house and clean but I'm not down to live with his parents. Not to mention the room shared a common wall with a 26 year old guy with really thin walls. Think Office Space.
Finally I went to a really nice condo with an amazing room. The best one of all and the only real drawback is that it is about 5 miles to the beach. Not far coming from Dallas but after living a block from the beach since I've been here I really like hopping on the bike and hitting the beach right away. The condo is 5 miles inland with crazy hills along the way. It's almost difficult driving it as my car slugs up the hills.
I think I'm going to take this condo anyway. Private room and bath, clean and nice and garage parking with my own refrigerator. I'll just have to use more gas and drive more. It's reasonable at $750 with all bills paid. Cheaper than my apartment in Dallas!
I went to the beach again and it was amazing. The water was perfect, the waves were thrashing, and there were tons of people on the beach. Definitely a young area as most people were 20 or families with kids. I got fried to hell though as the sunblock I put on in the morning must have worn off. I don't think my face has been this bad in years. I feel stupid going in public.
