Alright. First off, you're asking me to do the impossible, which is to access my short term memory. I have no short term memory!
Monday... geeze. I think we got the ping pong table out Saturday. The garage has been full of huge boxes because my dad is renovating the kitchen and he ordered a bunch of cabinets. He's torn down the old walls, the windows, put up dry wall and painted and Saturday he finally installed some of the cabinetry, which meant there were less boxes in the garage, which meant more room for the ping pong table. So I invited Andy over and we played a little bit before he left for Jake's. I guess they were having a barbeque and I didn't want to go. It would only mean either drinking or smoking and we'd be there until late and I didn't want to be there until late.

Anyway, Sunday I think I played ping pong with Randy and Dad. I could beat Randy, but not Dad. Then I went inside and watched Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix with Chelse. Monday I believe is when we watched Pulp Fiction. My father really hates horror movies and any movie with a lot of gore in it, but Pulp Fiction is okay. Mom really hates any comedy movie.  But she watched Pulp Fiction with us. So that was good. I finally found Kathy Griffin. Did you know she was in the movie? Now you do. She's the weird looking red head standing over Marsellis after Butch Cassidy hits him with his car.

Tuesday, Chelse and I were bored and so we pulled out Time Splitters 2 for the PS2 and played that. It's awful, really. The story line and the dialogue is just awful. And apparently Corporeal Hart dies, but if you play co-op, you play with her. Then she disappears again. So it's strange. I was getting frustrated because Chelse would always take off ahead of me and then lose most of her life. Either that or she'd start running around and a camera would see us and set off the alarm.

Wednesday.... oh, yesterday. Haha! Okay, I invited Andy over again for more ping pong. I dominated him the first set of three, won 2-1, then started playing terrible. Couldn't hit the ball onto the table or always into the net. We got new paddles so we wanted to see what they are like. They have great control, but they're a little awkward. I think it's because they're light. I use the heaviest paddles we have. I think it's because I can feel when the ball hits the paddle because it's just a piece of plywood with some dried up rubber mat on the front and back. Anyway, we played doubles and Dad and Chelse killed everyone (as in Kat/Andy and Kat/me). Then we moved on to singles where I beat Kat like 21-11 or so and then I beat Andy pretty bad. He has a tendency to just freak the fuck out when he loses which usually involves him hitting the ping pong ball as hard as he can to the other side, which is where I'm standing. It's annoying because we usually lose a ball when he does that and.... seriously? It's just a ping pong game. It's not like we were betting money. And I'm at the other end of the table. If I get hit, it's game over. Ping pong balls can hurt if they hit skin and I didn't sign up to get smacked with one when I started playing. The first time he did it it went seriously around one side of my neck, hit the garage door, and then almost hit the other side of my neck.

Then after the ping pong, I played my Dad and lost. We went into deuce and advantage and then Dad won because the ping pong just barely hit the table. Those are so hard to return. I was sad.... especially since I was up six before he even scored ONE point and then I lost.

After that we went inside and played hide and go seek in the dark. That was pretty fun. I've found we only play maybe three rounds since it's just a lot of waiting. You hide somewhere and wait. Get found... go into another room and wait for everyone else to get found. Andy stayed and played for a while until 11. Kat is always so hard to find because she can squeeze into any crack or crevice. I hit my head trying to find mom in the Useless Room downstairs in the basement. I've never really been in there before (because it's useless and by that I mean it's an extremely narrow passageway to a dead end and there are no shelving units or anything. You can do nothing in that room and put nothing in there. I don't know why it's there) and I was bent over trying to reach at the ground and smacked my head on this bit that comes out. I have like a permanent bump on my head. When I got into the car accident with Vicky, I hit the left side of my forehead on the windshield. And the next day I was walking to the car and didn't realize the garage door wasn't all the way up and didn't think to duck and hit the left side of my forehead on that. Now there's this permanent bump that feels like my skull just bolstered itself for future injuries.

Andy is supposed to come over again today after work assuming he remembers. I give him maybe two hours before he bails to go hang with someone else who calls. Saturday I am the designated driver for my parents, my aunt, and her friends. I get $10 per person in the car (I might be driving a minivan which means $70) and a free dinner meal. Woo! Andy is driving whatever other vehicle there is. He has experience with a truck and an SUV only. I used to drive an enormous blue Tiara minivan. I backed it into a telephone pole when I was 16 at like 2 in the morning because I was driving Andy home. It bent the back bumper so you couldn't get the back doors open. Heh heh...
