February 18, 2010 | Life in General,The 4-1-1 on Me,Weekend Wrap-Up
It’s been forevah evah since I’ve done a weekend wrap-up. Nothing much to talk about and you can only say “not much” or “laundry again” so many times. Now that school’s in session, it’ll mostly be about homework. Again, you can only say that so many times before you lose your audience. Or, the little that I currently have, that is. With that in mind, I’ll just do weekend wrap-ups when there’s something worth talking about.
Friday – went to eat sushi at Kabuki with DSG friends. And found out another couple are engaged. Very cool. Good food, good times.
Saturday – we’re visiting family next week in Orlando (first time going. Very excited), so we went to Marshall’s and bought a new 21” wheeled, carry-on luggage…thing. The handle on our other one no longer goes down, so we had to get a new one. I also needed better athletic shoes to walk around in and I found some comfy Nike’s at the Nike store in AZ Mills. Surprisingly enough, they’re a 6.5Y. Y as in Youth. Yeah, shocked the hell outta me, too. Apparently my feet are small enough to wear certain youth sizes. Needless to say, Mr. Maul was happy to only have to shell out $25 for them.
Sunday – Went to eat at “Ron’s Place” (aka The Original Pancake House) for breakfast. This has now become a Sunday morning tradition for us. We’re there practically every weekend now. Then we went to see THE WOLFMAN. I was expecting the violence to be along the lines of VAN HELSING or SLEEPY HOLLOW. It was more like UNDERWORLD. I must admit, some of the scenes were a little cringe-worthy, but overall it was a good movie. Sir Anthony Hopkins always makes for a good bad guy. Saw a preview for a movie with Jude Law and Forrest Whitaker called REPO MEN. Looking forward to seeing that. It’s definitely a different take on the whole thing “repo” thing. When you can’t make pmts on your car, it’s taken from you, right? Same concept, but instead of taking your car, they take your organ. Yeah, I know. That’s some freaky-ass shit right there . You get an organ transplant and can’t make the pmts on it they send people to come and take it back. This is going to be like MINORITY REPORT, though, in that the person doing the hunting becomes the hunted. Should be good. Also saw a trailer for PRINCE OF PERSIA and wow, doesn’t Jake Gyllenhaal look good with long hair and all buffed-out. Nice! Also saw a trailer for WALL STREET: MONEY NEVER SLEEPS with Shia LeBeouf and Michael Douglas. I don’t ever remember the first one. But it looks interesting, so I may see it.
Monday – Had the day off. Woot! Cleaned house, did some laundry, went to see PERCY JACKSON AND THE OLMYPIANS: THE LIGHTNING THIEF. I’ve never read the series, but if they continue to make movies in this series, I’ll go see them. Mythology in YA is kinda interesting.
So, that’s it for me. Were you off on Monday, too? How was your weekend?
