choochoo

  • Howdy doody. I'm back from a fun weekend and I'm tired. I have the feeling a powersnooze is in order. Anyway lemme know what I was up to. Friday afternoon I worked an extra shift @ Traffic since they were short a person and I can't pass up more dinero. I may be working a few extra shifts here and there as needed, my boss there says he can use the extra help. I can use the extra cash. Anyway after that Davina and I met up for a Friday night adventure. We went to Best Buy and I got more blank CDs, then to Chevy's for dinner. I love me some Mexican food. Of course we went to see Zombieland afterward. That movie rocked. Beat my expectations, and very hilarious. I'd actually pay to see it again, it was just that good. Other movies I'd like to watch in the next few months are Where The Wild Things Are and Cirque De Freak. Forget that Twilight crap. I don't hate it, but it just doesn't appeal to me. So yeah, later on we stopped by Walmart to get pads & zombie make-up. I think I'll be a zombie on Halloween itself and a kittycat as a back-up costume, probably the weekend I spend at Kimmie's house.
  • Saturday morning I caught up on exercise by walking a few miles, which felt great. Then Davina, Lorie, her friend Jovie and I went to the A's game, the second to the last one of the season. We lost to Anaheim 4-2. Big shocker there. I did enjoy sitting in the Westside Club eating chicken, fries & ice cream for half the game, and my free mini-A's helmet. After the game we had coffee at Cafe Sorriso, then I picked up my Dad. I promised I'd watch him for a while so Michelle could go on another stupid date with her boyfriend. The important thing is Dad got out of the house for a bit and enjoyed himself at my place.
  • Sunday I woke up bright and early, and had enough time to go walking before Davina picked me up for church. Church was fun, Pastor Vince had a good message about not straying from God, no matter how bad you've been. After church got out we went to Target, then to Kennedy Park next door to ride the choochoo train. I've always wanted to ride it. So much fun. Life is about the little things, you know. We then met up with Lorie at her place, and walked to the Sausage & Suds festival from there. I got a fireman hat and was able to climb in the fire engine. So exciting! I had tri-tip as a late lunch, then some kettle korn. It was a fun time and I ran into friends I hadn't seen in a long while. Then I went back home and took a nice nap before work. Here I am.
  • Yeah so that's it. I'm way tired. Oy vey.
