My Weekend: The Good & The Bad

The Good:

-Bidding on and winning Mario World, 007 (II), and another game I can’t remember the name of for Game Cube on Ebay for only $30 (shipping included).

-Friday night. It was a great time, and that is all I can really say here on the internet because there’s always the possibility that I’ll be running for mayor in about 10-20 years.

-Waking up at 11 am on Saturday only to go back to bed around 1 pm and not waking up again until about 4 pm that same day.

-Waking up again at 4 pm on Saturday and just lying on the couch watching movie after movie into the wee hours of Sunday.

-Doing a 500 piece jigsaw puzzle in record time.

-Accidentally (and then, purposefully) squirting cheese-out-of-the-can onto my Camel T-shirt.

-Not throwing up one single time.

-Fun, exciting NCAA basketball games featuring one of our home teams as the Big XII Championship winners.

The Bad:

-Obnoxious old dude who commented sarcastically on my big ol’ plate of food at the Outback. "You’re not gonna eat all that, are you?" Prick.

-The absence of our Champion Teenager due to fact that she’s spending spring break at her mom’s house.

-The chimes..... Ohhh, the loud, clanging chimes that rattled all day Sunday just outside our front door.

-The tree blown over by Sunday’s ferocious winds (see chimes highlight above) that landed on and suspended itself by one of the power lines leading into the house. (Note: The electricity never went out. So, I guess this might actually go in the "Good" section, after all).

-Capri 120's cigarettes. In spite of their fancy-society-lady charm, they’re simply too damn long to be an enjoyable smoke.

-The GD wind keeping AJ and me from fulfilling our pyromaniac dreams with that big pile of brush in the backyard.
