long weekend recap
I've got some entries to catch up on (such as fursuiting events, vegas trip, etc) but I'll instead mention the more recent stuff.
Came back to my parents house friday (yes, work still sucks and I'm not looking forward to events that will take place on tuesday) but anyways got home and nada happens. Saturday I head over to my friend Dave's, we meet up with his g/f Katie, Rick and his g/f, then also Derek, and also Steve (who has finally retured from Germany after two years after just recently being discharged from the army). We split up in two groups and head to Poughkeepsie, catch the matinee of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (it sucked). Couldn't catch any other movies because of the timing of the movies, nobody seemed interested in watching another movie at regular prices. Eat out at Red Robin then head back to Red Hook. Just chilled at Dave's for awhile, Rick and g/f headed home, I requested we watched some season 4 of Seinfeld (recently just the Cheever letters episode popped in my head so we watch that and the Cabin and Opera episodes).
Our original plan included seeing a couple friends of Dave (both in separate bands that were scheduled to play at the Firebird). Find out via My Space that one of the band members of Hynged was sick so they wouldn't be around, and we've seen Ryan's band a number of times - and frankly most of us didn't want to pony up a cover charge for just a cover band. Put up my own suggestion that we go to the Red Hook Lyceum and catch a late showing of Iron Man (which was a fantastic flick).
Today headed upstate to k_fuego's place, also in attendance were a couple friends of his from nearby, czar_wolfhound, simbab, boomeroo, and... dodgeotter? I think that was everyone. Ate some food, lotsa drinkage, and played a large game of Apples 2 Apples (with also Fox's mom in the lineup).
All in all not a bad weekend. Heading back to the city tomorrow, hopefully get some rest (something I've been lacking for awhile now) before the insanities of work begin again... if it weren't for the fucking gas prices and worries about the economy and stuff I really think I'd have snapped recently and just left, I'm too much a worrier to do something that spontaneous even though I'm fucking sick of it all.
