Book, immobility…good
I feel like hammered crap. It started this morning and went downhill all day. To that end I am taking it easy, relaxing with a book and planning on getting to bed early.
Look what I found
Donald came over tonightfor some movie and dinner action and he comes back through the apartment from the bathroom and says “Why do you have Step Brothers in a box in your room?” For a moment I was completely flummoxed and then I remembered that I had borrowed it from Hawkins like 6 months ago. Somehow it got put in with the chainmail supplies and when I put them away it got put away as well. Since chainmail is back out, “Step Brothers” is back in the light of day as well. Halfway through and it seems like good clean fun. The last couple movies I’ve seen have been complex/dark/brooding/confusing or just flat out weird and sometimes you have to sit back and just watch something that doesn’t take a lot of effort.
Beer and Blog Bar Louie
Week 2 at the new Beer and Blog location. It seems to be working well. Nicely located, good specials, good food, more varied drinks. The way they handle the checks is a little weird but I think that’s something we can iron out with them over time. They aren’t really sure how to deal with us yet. Regardless, a fun time is being had by one and all and Hawkins and I even did some blogging and thus helped make sure we get to keep the name.
Getting ready for the finale of “Lost”
The season finale is upon us. I predict much wailing and gnashing of teeth by the time the episode ends. There is simply no way it’s going to be over and I’m going to be happy about waiting 9 months to see the next episode. I’m 4 episodes behind right now though and I’m going to a live watching on Wednesday so I have to get caught up quick!
A lot of motion for “The Office”
I tried a handful of pictures but there’s too much motion to get a nice clear picture. A dance club in the basement office? Brilliant! This picture turned out fun though so I’m keeping it. I’ve got some computer messing about to do today so I didn’t have a whole lot of mobilitity. I have had a whole lot of TV though. I haven’t turned it on since something like Thursday a week ago which means there’s a whole bunch of shows I have a couple of. I also had a slew of “Dollhouse” to watch. That show started out a little rough but the story has been kicking in quite nicely. It’s a little more like “Buffy” and less like “Firefly” but, still, getting good.
Happy Mother’s Day, Ma!
With Manduh and Matt in town and not wanting to leave -too- late on Sunday to go back to LA, we moved Mother’s Day to Saturday. We cooked dinner, played Apples to Apples and I did a little tech support but mostly we just visited, as we are want to do.
The whole fam!
Dad is heading of to destabilize some foreign country or another so, keeping with tradition, we got the whole family together for dinner at the Outback before he leaves. The new addition this time would be cousin Desiree who, like Ma and Myya, doesn’t particularly want to be photographed so she’s here in person and in photographic spirit. We’ll just let the rest of them ham it up for the photo.
