That was definitely not the case this past weekend.
Friday I was at work. My last day alone without Vinnie. Thank goodness he's back this week. Too much pressure when I'm by myself. After work, we went to the football game. It was actually so much fun. I didn't think it would be because I don't really care either way if BC Lions win or Calgary Stampeders win. But Calgary won. So at least the atmosphere was enjoyable. That and we had really terrific seats. Courtesy of Blake's co worker Harold. He has had the seats for I think he said 25 years. Crazy huh?
The traffic afterwards however was unbearable. The police were running the show because for some reason the lights were out. Lame. Oh well. We ended up getting home at 1130. Then passing out.

Saturday. I slept in. Yup. :D Till 1030/1040.. somewhere in between there I woke up. That was awesome. I did some laundry and by the time I was finished that.... well... it was time to head to Okotoks. We were going to go to this Rider Day thing at a pub there. But they ended up cancelling it this year. Oh well. No big deal. We ended up watching the game and drinking a few pilsners at Chris' house there. Lots of fun. The Roughriders ended up winning that game too. So all in all for sports. The teams that I would have liked to win.. did! :D
After the game we went for greasy bar food at the George there. I wish I had taken a picture. It looked exactly like Cheers. It even had a staircase for Kelsey Gramer to come down. Haha.
After the bar we headed back to Chris' place and Brandy and me ended up watching Chris and Blake play House of the Dead or something like that. I ended up having a nap. :P
By the time we got home it was 1130 again. Haha. Blake was tired... (from drinking) so he passed out. But I stayed up and watched SNL. Megan Fox was actually funny, and U2 totally broke the rules. You could tell that they were suppose to cut down their songs but Bono was like.. "No mate. I'm playing all night long." - or something along those lines. I made more dish cloths. :D It only takes me an hour and a half to make one now. :D I'm a fast knitter. :D

Also in other news, Mandy left for Vegas! I just hope she is having a wicked awesome time. But of couse she is because not only is she going with her bestest friend, she also is seeing Britney Spears. I hope she has taken lots of pictures. :D I'll find out when she comes home on Saturday... or more than likely I'll find out when she is alive on Sunday. Haha.
Sunday was awesome. Blake and I went grocery shopping. Came home and cleaned the house. Then we made dinner really early so that we could nibble on it all night. It's Blake's favourite thing to do if your wondering. We made scallop potatoes and ham and creamed corn. Yum! Then I made brownies. :D They turned out perfectly. They had just come out of the oven when our friends Dan and Rachel (the ones who moved to Victoria) came over. They had a race in Banff this weekend and Rachel has a citizenship test this week. Actually today. So hopefully she passes it! :D Good Luck Rach!
But the really awesome thing that happened this weekend was Rach and Daniel...... GOT ENGAGED THIS WEEKEND! It was such a cute story. He got up in front of a bunch of people on a mic and asked her to marry him. I was in tears when I heard this. It is so awesome for them.. Plus when I heard that he got the ring even before they headed out to Victoria that was just awesome. Back in May or something like that. :D
So besides the story of their engagement, we ended up playing Beatles Rockband all night. I got to play the drums finally. So much fun. I wish we had a really drum seat though. I think that's all we need and then we are set.
Anyways. Time to get to work. :P Later days!
wow! youre talented.
ReplyDeletei've been trying to convince my aunt that she needs to make me more of those dish cloths! I LOVE them!! if you have any extra, feel free to send them my way!
wow Im surprised that you actually slept in. good work sis. i didnt know you knew how to knit. youll have to show me.
ReplyDeleteAlso if you want to play real drums just come over to my place and have at em. the only one that uses them is tobin. he tried to teach me once but i think ill stick to sudoku and crosswords...
Hahah.. Karen. I was actually going to make you some for your place! Tell me what colors and I'd be more than happy to make you a few!
ReplyDeleteKatie- That sounds super tempting. I might just have to come over and bang them a few times. But it's not going to sound as good as when I play rockband. LOL
I'll totally teach you how to. It's super easy. I can't believe that you didn't learn when Paula was living there. I guess one thing at a time. I just learned again from youtube. It's that simple. :D
well, i love bright fun colours, so really whatever you think would be pretty, then i'm good with that! :)
