Friends, Freebies, Food, and Fun

This weekend, Ben came down and we had one of our “old times” days. We ate at Macado’s, shopped around the mall, watched Robin Hood, True Blood, The Backyardigans (sorry, Ben!), Dexter, and RHNJ. There are probably more, but that’s all I can remember this late in the game. Our visit to Macado’s was made even better by the bill coming to -$.04. Christmas gift card in action! Our trip to Border’s was also made better by yet another old gift card. My purchase of Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Demigod Files and the Doctor Who Magazine? FREE as well. Woot! I saw a few of “my kids” which made the day even better. Good times!

Monday, Flo came up and we, too, went to Macado’s and the mall. While nothing was free, I was able to spot some wicked new shoes to purchase. I got a pair of K-Swiss sneakers and some brown utility shoes. I also splurged on some white gold hoops. LOVE them. Flo and I talked a little school, a little fashion, and a little crap about others. All-in-all? Another great day.

The fam is still on vacation, so I’m on pet patrol. It’s my job to check on everyone’s cats and make sure they are fed, watered, and litterbox ready. I feel so important. :clown:

Fire In The Hole!

Guess who just burned up dinner as well as her cutesy chef burner cover!

This is not the first time I’ve done something like this–actually it is the first time I’ve also ruined dinner while incinerating a burner cover, but it was just Rice-a-Roni, so I guess it’s no huge loss. Still…. 😳

I guess I’ll have to make a dinner of the truffles my mom brought me this evening. Thanks, Mom! :love:

Oh, now you’ve done it.

Merlin (the character) has really goofed this time. Never, never trust a little kid with eyes that blue (Damien, anyone?). This show could go on forever with the way they’ve set up the bits and pieces of the legend, and I quite like it this way. Sure, I’d rather have Lancelot stayed around in a featured role, but I like this quick-glimpse formula. Good week.

I’m going to go out on a limb as say that SGA sucked. I watched the first few minutes, the last few minutes and fast-forwarded through the rest. Michael, hostages, blah blah blah. Even though Michael may actually be dead (a couple years too late), I can’t care. Pity, really.

Now that Primeval (which I love, btw) has finished its run and Merlin is wrapping up, Saturdays are going to be terribly boring for a while. Robin Hood isn’t starting anytime soon and I’m dreading the weeks of no new shows to love.

In the last two weeks I managed to live through two school trips unscathed. Score! Ooh, and this morning, I got to have a nice coffee date with my Dad and Jamie. I’m such a sucker for seasonal promotions. I had the Pumpkin Spiced Latte and a Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffin–and a lot of fun.

Who da, Who?

Well, now. At the risk of spoiling people with the title, I just have to say,

David Tennant is leaving Doctor Who after the specials. Not a minute too soon, if you ask me. I’m so excited to get a new Doctor. I don’t even care who it is, I’m just ready for someone else.

Heroes was loopable again this week. “Have you met their mother?” Hee! Sylar shows up, busts some asses for 2.3 seconds and I’m happy with life again. Yes, I’m glad I’m still onboard this one! :jack:

Mom made up for the phone thing with biscuits, apple butter, and bacon. Yummmmy.
