Weekend Redux

This weekend sort of rocked. Alan walked in to the apartment Friday night with three bottles of booze, and we celebrated Friday the 13th with laundry, stir fry, booze smoothies, and Trivial Pursuit. I won the Trivial Pursuit game by one pie slice. Sports questions are Alan’s Achilles’ Heel. We made plans to visit our friends Brad and Lem for Saturday, and read books in bed till we fell asleep. Nice way to end a week.

Saturday morning we went grocery shopping and picked up picnic foods. We went to Welland and took a walk on the island with Brad and Lem, ate pie, and played Scrabble. Brad won the Scrabble game, but it was a lot of fun.

Sunday, Alan and I did next to nothing. I caught up on two episodes of Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles and some of last week’s Daily Show and Colbert Report. I did not read any of my PHP book, nor did I write my review of American Gods. I did, however, read lots of Foundation’s Edge, and also I played a lot of The Sims 2. We tried to make fish ball soup for supper, and though it was tasty, we used the wrong type of fish and the balls sort of dissolved, so it was more like fish lump soup. Also, Alan and I picked the reception hall for our wedding: Camlachie Community Centre it is!

It’s going to be a long week, I’ve got a lot of work to do and may not be blogging much. I don’t promise too many amazing, deep, introspective posts this week. Which isn’t that odd, because I have never promised that. I am starting to feel better, but it took about three days to get over a massive headache.
