What did I do over the weekend?

Ok so I look back at my to-do list and lets see I did 3 1/2 of the things on the list. Ok so I was not as productive as I wanted to be but thats ok.


Sunday I went to breakfast with Tim. Some place down town called the Beacon. I had no clue it even existed... but obviously I was the only one cause it was crowded and we even ran into some of his friends. It is a good home cooking mom & pop kinda place. Got biscuits and gravy with country fried potatoes. Ok I guess I have just had Denny's country fried potatoes but these were different they had peppers and onions in them. They gave the potatoes a really good flavor but I picked around them... just not a huge pepper and onion bitter taste fan. Sorry. After that we hung out at his place reading the newspaper (I know so exciting) then we went to pick up his boss's grandson to take him to see Cloverfield.
Both before and after Niles (the kid) had us playing Halo 3. Wait I take that back I was playing be a target and they were playing Halo 3. The best I did was when Tim and Niles were in another room and I was shooting at their characters. But I had alot of fun playing it with them... I used to play Halo with my husband and his brother when they both lived with their parents... I actually go ok at it then at least I was a more interesting target then I was Sunday! Might have to dust off the xbox while Tyler is at work and get some skillz! Yeah ok I said skillz I am an old fogy now I guess. It was neat I have never seen how xbox live works and I was impressed. It was kinda funny cause some friend of Niles was on talking to him. When you have a chat link open the other persons voice comes out over the tv. Well this kid was singing to himself and we could hear it! Me and Tim were making faces at each other about ready to laugh cause it was hilarious... some little tune like "Mich---ael, Mi------chael." No clue who Michael is but he sure liked him. Niles is a real cute kid... but I am worried aobut him... he had Texas Chainsaw Massacre toys, and well I know what those did to my husband, I saw them when we first walked downstairs and Tim noticed them later and just gave me the big eyebrow lift like uh-oh. I just told Niles that those toys were neat just to make sure that he doesn't go overboard on them he will be fine. I know he was probably like --- ok crazy lady.
Cloverfield: Well lets see it is shot kinda as a first person film. Your supposed to believe that this guy who was filming a going away party is with it enough as a giant monster is attacking the city to keep the camera going because "People will want to know how it all went down". So if you are motion-sick inclined probably not your movie. Very jumpy and sometimes understand because they did a great job of making the whole handheld video camera thing believable. But overall the movie was just --- ehh take it or leave it. I don't know I guess I like movies that explain a lot. This movie starts at the party and then it goes to the end where it just cuts off. It's obvious what happened but I guess I just expected more. They never explained what the frick the monster was --- kinda looked like a bat with giant legs and a octopus tentacle tail. Then it dropped little monsters off of them that looked more like the spiders from the Harry Potter movie. One of their friends gets bit by the little creatures and for some reason she exploded? Did not see if it was because it laid eggs in her or what. It was really short only 1 hour 30 minutes... so it would be a good Palace aka cheap theater or a rental movie.
Yup that was my weekend. Oh Sunday night I ate Taco Bueno.... I don't think I will be eating there anytime soon. This is gross and tmi: but I was up until 3 am and Taco Bueno was exploding out of me at both ends. My wonderful oh so sweet and such an ass husband only said these two things to me. "That's gross" and "Don't break the toilet". Isn't that sweet of him?
