"I can't do Taco Night!" - Kate from LOST

It's Monday!

Spent the majority of last week out in Western Mass with Lara and her parents. It's nice to get out there admist the trees and vistas. The trip up was eventful, since Godsteve came with us in his cat carrier and, we soon discovered, could not "hold it" as long as we needed him to. After a washing of his carrier, blanket, mat, and my pants, and things were back to normal. Remind us to perform our interpretation of "Godsteve tries to show his disapproval at being cleaned and eat a handful of treats at the same time" for you.

We also discovered a magic stick, found out my favorite coffee placed had burned to the ground,  took a not-quite hairpin turn, went to the chocolate Mecca (Chocolate Springs Cafe) , and I managed to plow through all the Batman comic compilations Lara's uncle had left there ("The Long Halloween" is awesome).

We hit a used record store called Turn It Up and came up with some great finds, including Chris Jericho's "Fozzy" CD, a VHS of Weird Al videos, "Monster Squad", "Karate Kid II" and  "Evil Dead II"on DVD. Lara also found a The WHo live DVD, and a good deal on "The History of the WWE Championship", which has matches from Bruno Sammartino and Killer Kowalski (which Lara's dad much appreciated) up through Hulk Hogan and John Cena.

We returned home Thursday and spent the next two days reorganizing ourselves. Saturday, it was off to Taunton for the fight festivities at M & V's place. Since we just wrapped a show with swords, crowbars and claws, Lara and I decided to just have some fun and bust out our lightsabers for the occassion. Lara's double-bladed lightsaber may be one of the most difficult weapons there is to fight with, but we came up with a fubn 3 phrase bit that maybe we should film and youtube ;-) It was great to see folks again, especially a surprise cameo from the USMC's finest!

Right afterwards, we drove to Raynham to visit my grandmother for a nice chicken dinner and pleasant conversation :-) Sunday i had planned to have dinner with my mother, but somehow that didn't work out and we'll be raincheckin' for Friday. Instead, Lara and I blasted across the cosmos for Star Wars Battlefront 2 fun. We killed a lot of Ewoks and Gunguns. Then, we hit the supermarket and picked up all the necessary items for nachos and tacos, then proceeded to make said items and consume them with gusto. :-)

Today, we are about to put together my new desk! :-)
