Weekend Update

Well it's that time again. I didn't update all weekend and so many things happend that I don't know where to start. The beginning that's a good place :) I'll try starting there.
On Friday I wanted to get my oil changed so I got up early to try and get it done before work. But when I got there they were backed up for an hour and a half. So I just went on to work, I was kinda bummed because I could have slept for another hour or so. Work was boring, I hate to say it but it's been really nice not having Nancy around. That sounds awful I'm sure, but I get more work done and it's less stressful without her around chattering or freaking out about every little thing. Anyway, I got everything done early and left around two. Then I had to take a movie back, get gas and lunch etc. So I didn't get on the interstate until about 3. Well I was kinda in a hurry because I wanted to see Kate really bad. So......I went about 80 most of the way :). And I got there in three hours instead of the usual 3.5. I met her in the bookstore, and we went to her Dad's birthday celebration at the comedy club there in Short Pump. We were going because it was Mitch Hedburg, one of my favorite comedians. Well the warmup act was good, but Mitch totally bombed, he got there right before he was supposed to start and just never got on a roll. He spent a lot of time making jokes about the club and the setup. And at the end he hadn't told a lot of jokes and he looked up at the clock and realized that he had to get off. It was really sad, I was looking forward to hearing his act again. Kate's Dad wasn't disapointed though, his leg was hurting so he went outside and didn't watch the show. So I guess it's ok then that he wasn't there, he didn't miss much.
Kate and I then went to Ox's, it was kinda late by that point but he was still awake. We talked for a while and then went to bed. The next morning I woke up really early and then kept dozing off and waking up again. For some reason I really just wanted to stay in bed or lay around the house all day. But we didn't, we got up and headed off to the event. Kate had some new garb from Djinn which she looked really really cute in. Especially we she had that hat on. She'd probably kick me for saying that though hehe. AI forgot my belt so I had to use some rope to keep my shirt from flying everywhere. I had a new undershirt I was trying out, it's made of a spandex type of material that is supposed to get the sweat off of your body faster and keep you cool. And it worked really well, the heat index was around 100F and I was comfortable. The tournament was very cool, it was done in bear pit style. I wish more tourney's were like this. Anyway, I actually won. I never thought I would actually win one, but it was small enough that I did. I beat 2 yellow scarves, Kelric and Michael. Which isn't half bad. Kate was proud of me which made me happy. That night we went back to Ox's and Jinn came over to talk about garb and things with Kate and I. She was really tired, and she is one of those people who can't stop talking when they are tired...... Anyhoo she finally went home to get some rest which she desparatly needed. Kate fell asleep at this point and took a nice nap. Joe was on his way over and when he got there he ordered pizza. He then began to tell us about this girl he's had a crush on for over 6 months. She is one of his students and isn't yet 18. She will be in a few months though and they are counting the days. Joe has it really bad for this kid, they have super long convos on IM, they call and text message each other constantly and he went to her ballet performance too. It's really really messed up what they are doing. He keeps saying things like "it's not as bad as what some pople do" which also scares me. I'm afraid he's going to end up loosing his job or something, or getting a lawsuit from her parents. That's another bad situation, her parents are divorced and the mom doesn't sound so great. But so far they have not done anything wrong or illegal and I don't think they will but it's still scary to think about. That night we went to bed just exhausted, at least I was....Kate seemed to have lots of energy. But I slept harder than I have in a long long time. I guess having a good teddy bear helps a lot. Sunday we slept in and when I say in I mean like 1pm. We got up and went to lunch at Outback which was very very tasty. And once again Ox managed to pay more of the bill than was his share. I wish I could do that for all of my friends. Joe had a gift certificate so he ordered cheese fries, right before they came out he got a text message from his un-girlfriend. He went outside to reply to it and we lit into the cheese fries and finisehd them before he got back. He was a good sport about it though and he acknowledged that he deserved it. And then he ordered more cheese fries. After that we went and saw chronicles of riddick. Which I thought was awesome. Vin Diesel is a complete badass. After the movie we kinda lounged around a little and then we put on the Bourne Identity which Kate hadn't seen. She missed the end of it because she had to go home and get to bed. She is still getting up pretty early. It was hard to say goodbye to her, but I will see her next weekend too so it didn't hurt to badly. I was really tired after the movie was over, I don't think I every really woke up. So I just stayed overnight and came back Monday, I got home Monday afternoon. It was a good weekend and it kinda made me anxious for next weekend. We are going to try and go to a Christiand music concert at Kings Dominion. It'll be expensive but I should be ok. I can't wait. That's all for now.
