I was bored on the day after my birthday a couple of years ago. I was waiting for my girlfriend to get out of school so we could go to watch a baseball game at the Network Associates Coliseum. I spoke to my friend online in England (where I’m from) to pick out any place on the BART map and I would go there.

He picked Fremont so I went there. I looked around a bit, found Central Park (which is quite the opposite of central) had some lunch, and then picked up the baseball tickets on my way home.

It was a wonderful way to waste a day.
