Had a fantastic weekend. Saturday morning I took my daughter to her swimming lessons then into the city. We traded in two Wii games (The Simpsons Game and Catz 2) for Super Smash Bros Brawl. She kicks my ass in SSB:B quite a bit. Even taunts me. The little so-and-so.
We grabbed some Krispy Kreme donuts. I had told her we were going to get a surprise and as soon as she saw us walking past my old office she said "I know what the surprise is… DONUTS!". Too damn smart for her own good! hehe.
We picked up my costume from the shop and headed home to play SSB:B and Mario Party 8. We had lots of fun. I dropped her home and put on my vampire costume to wear to Mil & Jason’s party. It was Jason’s birthday so they combined it with a Hallowe’en Party.
I got there on time and walked around the back and straight past Mil. She had a red wig on and I didn’t recognise her at all! She said "You look lost!" and then I realised who it was. I chatted for a bit then sat down and her friend Dwayne and his girlfriend turned up. I had met Dwayne before so chatted with them for a while until my friend Raphael turned up. Raph and I drank our beers and talked with Dwayne and his girlfriend, Tina. We huddled around a big concrete fireplace Mil and Jason had set up in the backyard. The shape of it reminded me more of a giant BONG than anything else. I pretended to take a hit from it and inhaled some of the smoke. Yuk! My mouth tasted like burning wood so I got another beer (well.. that’s my excuse to do so anyway!). We stayed until midnight and I drove Raph home.. same as I did last year.. then I came back home and dropped into bed.
This morning I was talking to my friend Katherine on MSN and she asked what I was going to do today. I said I was going to clean the house and do some ironing and vacuuming. She said that was ‘boring!’ and she was going to the movies with friends. Well.. I took the idea and I already had a free movie ticket stuck to the fridge so drove to the local BCC cinema and got a free ticket to see The Dark Knight. I wandered around the shops for a while since I was 40 mins early then went back at 1pm for the 1:10pm show and got some popcorn and a coke. I got out about 4pm and came home to do my chores. I watched another episode of Battlestar Galactica Season 4 and then Dr Who on the ABC.
