The Weekend + My super powers

Well, my weekend wasn't that thrilling. But, I did get to hang out with some very cool people. :)

I watched The Dark Knight for the third time. I think that will be the last time I go to see it in the theaters. We played Ultimate Frisbee. I actually had a great time. People weren't douche-bags about me not being a perfect player. :) We ate at Cartucci's. It used to be my favorite restaurant and Joe and I used to go every weekend. It seems that the magic is gone. Our favorite waitress, Claudia, is no longer working there. The food was good, but not as magical as I remember. I guess all good things come to an end.

Someone got stung by a bee on Saturday. They had to stop playing afterwards. I do not have serious reactions to bee stings. It's just a simple "ouch!" and then some stinging for a few seconds and then I move on. I forget all about it. The past few people that I've seen get stung have been in pain after it, so I wonder if I just don't get hurt as much by it as other people. It's the same for mosquito bites. I itch right after the bite, but then I forget about it after a few seconds and the bump is gone within a few minutes. I know that is unusual, but I'm not sure about the bee stings. Am I super-immune to insects, or are people just wimpy??

I've tested out another thing in the past few weeks. When I was younger, I could not get poison ivy/oak no matter what I did. I could roll around in it and not have any reaction. I had heard that this could change as people get older. It hasn't for me yet. I still don't react to it. :)

So, apparently the only thing that can hurt me is the sun (damn evil thing) and spider bites. I've had a few spider bites that have made me pretty ill. Maybe I'm actually not as sensitive to those either... maybe those bites would have killed a normal human being. lol... Okay. So I'm probably not super-human, but it's still kinda fun to think about. :)
