snapdragon76Wow. This weekend was a busy one, lemme tell ya. I think I'll break it down by day.
Friday:
Actually, I don't think we did much of anythng on Friday...
Saturday:
Saturday morning was pretty slow. I did go out to the movies on Saturday afternoon with the new girl who works next to mom at the doctor's office. She seems really nice and it's nice to have someone closer to my own age to hang out with. We went to see 'The Brothers Grimm.' I liked it. I mean, there were some gruesom moments, but nothing too gory or anything, just be warned ahead of time is all. The title for this post is a line from an episode of MST3K, but it fits for the movie. You'd have to watch it to know what I meant for sure. She said the next movie we'd go see is 'The Corpse Bride.' She also told me she'd lend me her copy of 'A Nightmare Before Christmas' since I'd never seen it.
Afterwards, I went to the mall 'cause I wanted to see if I could find some slacks and maybe a top or two I could wear for work. I mean, since I'm in the back, I can get away with wearing jeans, but at the moment, it's still too hot. I saw a few things in at Gap that I liked. I didn't get anything though. I also picked up a few pamphlets on cell phones 'cause I want to get one since I'll not be at home for any one (like my mom or grandma) to be able to get ahold of me. I also stopped by the bookstore because I wanted to see if they had the latest Rurouni Kenshin volume in. They didn't.
Sunday:
Sunday (after church) there was a party for the Music Minister 'cause his birthday is Tuesday (we'll have another party then too). It wasn't directly after church, so there was time for me to change my clothes, rest up a bit, shave and change into the clothes I'd be wearing to the party. It was held a a place called 'The Melting Pot.' It's a fondue resturant. We were there for the desert part. It was really good. There were different pots filled with all sorts of different types of chocolate. The table where we were at had a S'mores one and a Yin Yang one. The S'mores one was, of course, s'mores. Chocolate, marshmallow and graham cracker crumbs. The Yin Yang one was a mix of white and dark chocolate in the shape of a Yin Yang symbol. I took a picture even. My favorite was the S'mores one. I love s'mores. For dipping we had a plate of strawberries, pineapple, bananas, cubes of pound cakes, mini-brownies, a slice of cheesecake and two different types of marshmallows. One was rolled in Oreo cookies, the other one was rolled in graham cracker. I dipped most of mine into the s'mores one but I dipped one of the bananas into one of the other table's pots that had chocolate and peanut butter. That was good.
One of the ladies who comes to our bible study on Tuesday nights, her husband had just come back from a six month stay in Japan where he had a gig at Tokyo Disney with his band. He wore a yukata to church! He also brought me more socks and a manga 'phone book.' I don't know the title, but as I was flipping though it I did notice it was definitely shojo. I'll take a picture and post it sometime. I also got some coins, too.
Today I have some bookmarks to make and maybe a few icons and I asked mom if maybe later on we could go and see 'Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.' I hope she says yes.
Happy Labor Day!!
