Last Night

After work I headed to the mall to pick up everyone that would be attending the baseball game; from there we headed for the tunnel bus and then to Comerica Park. While we waited for the rain to die down a bit we tracked down some food. Eventually the rain let up and the game got underway. 3 and a half hours later we were on the bus heading home. Once I dropped everyone off at their respective locations I returned home for some much needed sleep.

Last Night...

Went home, read, ate. Watched a bit of tv, then watched some bleach, followed by more tv (Weeds and It's always sunny in phili). Only 2-3 days until the cat goes home.

Last Night

After work I headed got my hair cut. Following the hair cut I met up for dinner at East Side Marios. Once dinner wrapped up I headed to Spicoli's for a couple of drinks before calling it a night.

Last Night...

Went home, Mar's nephew was there. She had just taken him for a stroll in a stroller she got the day before. His parents showed up to take him home. I read, ate supper, then mowed lawn. Although by that time it was too late in the evening and the grass was all wet from the dew, had to clean the mower out every strip. It was dark by the time i got done, so i'll have to rake it up tonight. Then watched some tv, worked on my parent's computer some more, and went to bed.

Last Night

After work I headed to my sisters and napped on the couch for an hour or so. When I woke up I ordered and went to pick up Chineese food for dinner. Upon returning my sister and her friend had arrived and we all ate dinner and watch Prison Break and that new show Heros. From there I left for downtown to meet up for a birthday party which turned into a whirlwind tour of the crappiest bars downtown has to offer. Once that wrapped up I returned home and went to bed.

Last Night...

Went home, read, ate. Was going to mow lawn, but laid down for a bit instead. Then i went for a ride with Mar to pick up a stroller. After we got home i worked on my parents computer, scanning it for viruses and doing all the updates, they are still updating now.

The Weekend...

Friday: Mar and i went out for supper with some of my friends. The one guy's wife was pregnant, so she showed us the pictures in her womb. Then after that i headed back to play poker with them and Mar headed home. Eventually i made it back, we watched a bit of tv and went to bed.

Saturday: Wasn't feeling well, alergies from the cat, i started freaking out and just spent the day in bed. Only one week left.

Sunday: We got groceries, washed up the sheets we had put down for the cat in the family room. Went to my parent's place for supper, it was very tastey. I brought home one of their computers to do some maintenance on. We put back down the sheets on the carpet for the cat, watched a bit of tv and went to bed.

Last Night...

Went home, Mar's nephew was there again. I bbq'd, we ate dinner, he fell asleep, and slept until just before his mom came to pick him up. I did a bit of reorganizing on my computer, which bored me imensely, then i went to bed.

Last Night

After work I headed to Kevin's palce to pick up some Michigan State football tickets I sold on his behalf. A bunch of us then went out for Whopper Wednesday and then cruised Mic Mac park looking for crack addicts. All we managed to find were a couple baseball games so we hung around and watched those for a bit. Later in the evening I headed to Brews and Cues for drinks and some pool. Once that wrapped up I headed home.

Last Night...

Went home, we had to watch Mar's nephew since his dad had his appendix taken out. So while Mar marked papers, i entertained the baby. Mostly i just watch some daily show and colbert reports i had taped while playing with his toys. He's not quite one so letting him run around and getting him to knock down block towers i made pretty much wore him out. Then his mom picked him up, Mar and I watched weeds and it's always sunny in phili, then went to bed.

Last Night

After work I headed to my sisters place to kill some time. I integrated some calendar javascript into the website I've been working on and then took a brief nap. I then headed to the movies to see 'The Black Dalhia' which I highly recommend you avoid ever seeing. After the movie I headed home, captured some news clips off of VHS to the computer for my Dad and then went to bed.

Last Night...

Went home, Mar's nephew was there, soon after his parents showed up and took him home. I read, ate, watched a bit of tv and a whole lot of Bleach. Generally i just tried to avoid the cat, with the overwhelming smell of her tuna cat food in the house, i'll be happy if i never smell tuna again. Only a week and a half left.

Tuesday, September 19, 2006

Last Night...

Went home, read, ate. Went out for a quick drive with Mar to drop a letter off for a teacher whose mother died.

The Weekend

Friday night after work I headed to the mall for a bit, visited with my cousin while he was at work, and then met up with Jay for dinner. Following dinner we made a quick stop at the beer store and then headed to Brian's for the evening. After relaxing over some drinks, we headed to Sandwich town and went to Spicoli's and Rock Bottom.

Saturday was spent lounging around, not doing a whole heck of a lot. The big event for the day was another impromptu party at Brian's place. We initially planned on heading to another party later in the evening but those plans quickly fell apart as the night went on. We ended up at Blockbuster renting a movie instead.

Sunday was dedicated to designing the template for the website I'm continually working on (although until yesterday wasn't making any progress with). Once that wrapped up and I was happy with my progress I headed in to Spicoli's for the usual weekend closer.

The Weekend...

Friday: Went home, read, ate. Went out shopping with Mar, we were getting the other part of her ring sized and it was ready, so we picked up that and picked out my ring. We stopped off at canadian tire to pick up a fertilizer spreader. Watched a bit of tv and went to bed.

Saturday: The day was mostly a writeoff. We picked up a couch that really smelled like dog, but it was free so we left it outside. If anyone wants a free couch and chair that smells like dog you are welcome to it, and can't imagine what it's going to smell like after the rain. Then we went out to one of Mar's friends place for a party. After that we headed home to watch a bit more tv and head to bed.

Sunday: Got grocceries, mowed lawn, weed whacked and bbq'd. Got the whole house aired out for the day, to get rid of some of the damn cat smell. Watched some tv, played on the computer and went to bed.

Last Night

After work I headed to my sisters place to help make dinner. After dinner a friend of hers came over and we hung out for a while and then watch Survivor. Midway through Survivor I left to meet up with Gino at Cramdon's... upon arrival we instead decided to head to Tim Horton's for a coffee. Once that wrapped up we returned to Cramdon's. Eventually I headed home to sleep.

Last Night...

Went home, read, bbq'd up some food, ate. Rolled the lawn, since it was nice and wet and the ground was mushy. Cleaned a bit of stuff off my computer, watched some tv. I wasn't doing to well with my cat alergies so i took a couple benadryl, i didn't really notice a difference, besides the antihistamine giving me leg twitches. Then we went to bed.

Last Night

After work I headed to CBS to donate blood. Following the donation I treated myself to some free juice and cookies. Once I was ready to go I headed to Brian's place for dinner. A few of us hung around there for the majority of the evening, watching TV and catching up on the last few days. Eventually we left for drinks at Brews & Cues to wrap up the evening.

Last Night...

Went home, read, ate. Read some more, hiding away in my den with the window open to lessen the effects of the cat. Mar's sister and nephew came over, i finished the book i was reading. After they left we watched our normal wednesday line up, of weeds and it's always sunny in phili. Enjoyable episodes of both, in the phili show, two of the characters decided to go on welfare claiming they were crack addicted and retarded. But they had to prove it with blood tests, so they just ended up addicted to crack by the end of the show, quite humorous.

Last Night...

Went home, read ate. I was supposed help one of my friend's dad with some computer work, so i called him and headed over there. Turns out he lives right beside where matt does. After refusing money for the computer help, he gave me a bottle of wine. I wasn't sure what the etiquette for refusing a bottle of wine from a spanish person was, so i accepted. I headed home, tried to avoid the cat by spending more time upstairs. Mar and i watched a bit of tv and went to bed.

Last Night

After work I headed home, had some Chinesse food for dinner, learned some more about Photoshop, watched some television and eventually drifted off to sleep mid-way through the Colbert Report.

Tuesday, September 12, 2006

Last Night...

Went home, read, ate. We are cat sitting Mar's cat for 3 weeks, both of us are alergic to her. We headed out to the mall to pick up some pants Mar had hemmed, then came home. My alergies were knocking the shit out of me, stomach burning, head and heart pounding, stuffy(i have odd reactions), and i laid down upstairs were the air is a little cleaner, as the cat is locked down stairs. I woke up a bit, went back down to my den, opened a window, turned on an air purifier and read for most of the remainder of the evening. I woke up this morning, reminissing in the familiarity of the onslaught of symptoms. Sitting on the fringe as my heart pounds away.

Last Night

After work I headed to my Grandma's to help carry an area rug up to her apartment. I wasn't aware that the carpet was 12 X 12 and wouldn't fit in the elevator. After a nice trek up the stairs we had some some dinner and watched a little television. From there I headed to my sisters place to watch Prison Break after which I left for Cramdon's. Once Cramdon's wrapped up we all grabbed a quick coffee at Tim Horton's before calling it a night and heading home.

The Weekend

Friday night we moved a friend of mine in to his new place (mostly just appliances by the time we arrived). We then spent the rest of the night hanging around Kevin's new place.

Saturday was spent lounging around the house watching Photoshop CS2 tutorials in an effort to pick up some graphics deisgning skills to aide in my website work I've got lined up. Later in the evening my parents had company over so I spent some time hanging out with them until eventually I was called to attend a wedding late that evening (post dinner; mostly for drinks and dancing). While wandering the hall I found my way into the Armstrong wedding for a quick visit before retreating to the wedding I was actually attending. Later that night we headed downtown to continue the party only to return to the cars to find 6 - 10 windshields had been broken (fortunately my car escaped the wrath of the idiot who thought it'd be cool to smash small holes in the corner of a half dozen window). After a while of standing aroudn the cars discussing with other victims how ridiculous it all was we headed home.

Sunday we had a food tasting party in Harrow followed by a barbque. Once that all wrapped up I watched a consipiracy theory movie on 9/11 (which I recommend if you'd like to question the governments involvement in the whole ordeal; it's called 'Loose Change'). Once that wrapped up I brought Laura home and then headed to Spicoli's for the usual weekend wrap up.

The Weekend...

Friday: We went over to Mar's parents' place for the evening.

Saturday: We went to my cousin's wedding. After that, we had a bunch of the family back to my house to kill the time inbetween the wedding and the reception. Then we went to the reception, a good time was had by all. Turned out Mark was also at the hall with his friend for another wedding.

Sunday: Had to get up early to be in amherstburg for Mar's little cousin's confirmation. Her aunt had a gathering at her house afterwards. They'd aired out the house and vaccumed up alot of the cat hair so i could stay in the house for more than an hour without getting sick, which was nice of them. After that we picked up Mar's cat, whose going to be staying at our house for the next 3 weeks. I put a bunch of blankets down on the carpet to make it easier to clean up the cat fur. Then we got groceries, had supper, watched a bit of tv and went to bed.
