The State of the Weekend Address

Well, May has come along and it's pretty stinking hot. If it weren't for Al Gore being a giant pompous windbag, I might think he was on to something with this whole global warming bandwagon he's heading up. Too bad, I don't. It's just hot. I digress...

This weekend was finally the weekend Katie and I have needed. We got to get out and see some folks, but looking back it doesn't feel like we were busy all weekend. Friday night we went over to Taylor's house where he and his roommate had some friends over to grill. We played some guitar hero and ended up seeing Hot Fuzz. Taylor and I really enjoyed the movie, Katie thought it was OK, and Jay thought it "sucked". May not appeal to most people, and definitely not a family movie by any stretch, but it was one of the best movies I've seen in the last year or so.

Saturday morning I filled in for Taylor in a Tennis tournament at Eastridge. Taylor's doubles partner, a guy named Lance, and I beat a couple of high school students. I came home, watched a Mayweather fight and a De La Hoya fight on HBO and finally ended up going over to the mall to chat with Sami and help Katie pick out a dress.

Today, Katie and I headed to church... had the Sunday dinner at Sha Sha's, then headed home so she could get started on her logs for work (her job stinks). Emma came back early this afternoon and Patrick dropped by also - both were working on papers for school... only one was a middle school paper and the other was a college paper. I cooked tilapia stuffed with crab meat and fried some steak fries (with oregano and crushed sea salt)... good stuff. See your local target's meat section for the pre-made stuffed tilapia. It's good stuff.

So, here I am. Finally, I've got a computer. Patrick was using mine for his paper, Emma was using Katie's, and Katie was on my laptop. I was in a cold sweat with no computer... but now I'm doing a little better. Every once in a while I reach over and pet my monitor to let her know it's ok... I haven't abandoned her. Things are back to normal.
