whips and chains... handcuffs...
overall I had a pretty awesome time.
friday my sis and I hung out...
talked to my mom for almost 2 hours, but I seriously didn't get to say but 5 or 10 words. she went on and on and on and on about everything that's been going on down there, and it was cool to hear about how my neices and nephews are doing, but sheesh! I've not talked to her in at least 6 months, and she doesn't ask anything about me.
I spent the entire time just saying, "uh huh" every few minutes. towards the end of the call I was just grunting occasionally.
so I was bitching to my sis about it, and we decided I deserved a milkshake for having to talk to our mother... we hit arby's for that, then stopped by blockbuster on the way back home. see, my sister's never seen doom, and we were talking about the fella in it, karl urban...
so I spent friday night reading, then talked to my mom, then my sis and I watched cinderella man and had milkshakes while watching doom.
about 0700 I crawl into bed, pretty stoked about sleeping 'till my belly button pops out.
but oh no, no long sleeps for tina.
0800 my sis comes into my room with brkfst from mcdonald's.
so I get up and end up not ever getting back to sleep.
I read another book (I actually read 3 this weekend - I'm pretty stoked) and played some more ff7.
I was determined to beat ruby weapon, even though all I'd get is [another] gold chocobo... but bragging rights ~are~ a powerful incentive.
after ruby killed me a few (read: 8) times I decided to take a break and call someone.
I had depressed munkey's number written on a napkin on my coffee table, so I decided to give him a call.
so I called, and he seemed surprised to finally hear from me, and we ended up hanging out for a while. I stopped by b&n for a couple of books (yeah... I dunno) and then to home depot for some chains (I'll explain in a sec).
I had a good time with him, and he seems like a cool guy.
I really hope we hang out again... lol... I let him borrow soul cal 3, so if it turns out I'm wrong about him I'll be kicking myself. I had the sense to keep my memory card, though, so I won't hafta start over if I end up having to repurchase the game.
we hung out 'till ~ 04 or so... was 05 by the time I got into bed.
so I slept a couple of hours then went to mass sunday morning.
those creepy guys sat in front of me again, but at least the younger one wasn't rubbing his nipples and licking his lips this week. ugh.
after mass I read another book and then called irbyface.
he got a haircut & a goatee... and was convinced we could make him look like kratos.
I had picked up a couple of 5' long chains from home depot, big heavy clunky ones. we got some tape (I suggested we use coban but he wanted to use tape) and got the chains on his arms... cut some cardboard to look like the blades of chaos... and we took a load of pics.
since I didn't sleep much I went home early to go to bed... but I couldn't sleep.
so I started reading a book - didn't finish it, though.
hopefully tonight I can get it done.
lol - one of the guys in the wireless dept just called in, asked what I was wearing, and then said he'd call me back.
